Enemies to the State. The step which was taken by the Government at yesterday's meeting of the Legislative Council in the passage of a Bill for the winding up of the affairs of cer-- tain alien enemies, although working a seeming hardship on some of those with whom many of us have been accustomed to.. mix in business and social circles, is one that must meet with the- unanimous approval of every Britisher: in the colony who wis lable thoroughly to understand the full significance of the word "war."

China's demand for beancake, which is used as manure, has greatly declined. Last year the export from Dairen to China showed a drop of 40 per cent.; but it is not unlikely that full investigation would show that the suppression of opium cultiva tion was not entirely responsible. The disordered state of the country's finances doubtless con- tributed to this result, and then, again, it has to be borne in mind. that the ultimate destination of. much that is exported from: Dairen to Obias and Japan," ie Europe and America. The war oaeta its blighting influence on all trades but the making of armaments, and it is not likely. that the trade returns of Dairen from being the "beat on récord" in 1913, will become the "worst on record" in 1914.

The steep or vertical deacent is admittedly a dangerous feat of airmanship, but it is not intrinsic- ally dangerous; the risk involved
is due to the structural stres80s to which the machine is subjcot- ed when "Esttoning out. These,
it is well known, may become excessive; any objection on the score of danger has obviously no weight whatever under the con- ditions contemplated.
