Mr. Churchill bas already made two abortive. efforts towards this ood, but if the extreme Liberal pacificists" would earnestly devote their whole attention to pointing out the colossal economic loss in the slaughter and maiming of thousands and the staggering financial loss in the expenditure of huge sums for armaments and maintenance of standing armies, giving the world no peace until it has learned to face those tratha, there is a pos- ible hope that, by common con- ent, this folly will come to an and.

There can be no doubt that the original intention of the agreements was to allow mission- aries to acquire lands and
property "for missionary purposes." These words are used in the American Treaty of 1903, and the letter published in, the Poking papere raises the question whether land and buildings bringing revenue, to the missionary treasury can reasonably be considered land. and buildings acquired for mis- sionary purposes. Undoubtedly o affirm that it is so is to widely stratch the ordinary meaning of the words that may fanly be pre-" sumed to have been in the minds if the Treaty-makers, but if any body is to blime for the exag- gerated iatorpretation it is the Chinese authorities who have re< gistered such sales and transfers.

Labour Unrest.
If the present labour unrest, not only at bomo but all over the world, is based, as is believed, on the seemption that the cost of living is increasing in greater proportion than the rate of wages,
an advance in wages will not in itsoll mitigate the evil. Wages enter so largely into the cost of production and distribution of

advance in them must ia the aggregate increase the cost of iving. It is wellknown that not only the artisans and the labourers in the factories, but all transport workers, including even the London street wagoner, have bad increases in their wage, with
ut any corresponding addition to the volume or value of the production. Obviously, such must be added to Belling price. There have been many attempts to attribute this advance in selling price also to increased: production of gold, tending to he depreciation of ite valas ss 0 medium of exóhange. But this in not supported by the facts, as in the seventies there was no excess of gold production in association with the very high cost of living, s has recently been the case.
