BACK IN ENGLAND.

MR. GARVIN GLAD TO BE BACK IN THE BEST HOME IN EUROPE.

Mr. J. D. Garvin has been abroad, and in the Observer he gives some very excel- lent and encouraging reasons why he is glad to be back inexpensive Engiand once He still Ends it the best home in the world...

more.

Ong writes again after a few weeks abroad and conversations with various people of mark, who between them know Europe and the East from end to end. On the resumption of these notes one redaction brings home and foreign polities to ¿focus. If it was always good to cous back to ong's own gountry, no matter how pleasant the holiday, it never was in our time ser good

as now,

"Not for lure generations has England by contrast with wearly all the Coutinent shown a more obvious picture of strength, order, progress, and management. Spared interion, theomparably endowed for its site with the old natural advantages, full of common sense, and with an enhanced degree of relative efficiency evident on every side, this island is making a miracle of recovery by cumipurison with every other | ex-belligerent in Europe..

****** "Whatever our drawbacks, trinly, "deny" gera, they are nothing to what may be seen and felt elsewhere. France is only just beginning to tace saxution with every pro bleus aggravated by postponement. Italy agitated and anxious, but as enchanting in scelte is over, and na trumanly attractive, is still a victor on rations.

"A few days ago the pound sterling exchanged abroad or 65 francs, and for no less than 102 lire-nearly three and four

There has bee times the pre-war values

afal since, and the political travelter is glad of is, for the sake of our heighbours, even when he gets less than be ad, but the phenomenal purchasing power of Eng lish money abroad is the mirror of our relative settlement and prosperity. "If our Government is not perfect it is at least more success than any other. If in quite impossible for Britons cho sing at home to realise how much we have to be thankful for, and have little cause we have for gram- bling and fears.

THE BEDROCK OF OUR POWER,

On the eve of the Budget there is a morn in this. The solute courage, ta tax ourselves hard in emergency and to place more and more of the burthen on the shoulders best able to bear it by breadth of wealth, is wore cearly than iz ever was the bedrock of the power and soundness of this country, Everyone kicks at his share of the bill; everyone stumps up at call; and this because everyone knows that everyone is the better for it in the run by the increased energy

and w

of the whole community. It is the old Exchequer story of Pitt's time. They said they would not and they could not pay; but they could pay and they did."

Mr. Austen Chamberlain keeps" up eminently

In these matters too high and traight-traditions of his predecessor. To grapple with the floating debt and to estab Daha great sinking fund for the vast war- liabilities which ars. the price of a victory. beyond our dreams, he has to ask for more and much more from all citizens above a certain level of income and possession. No legendemain or fancy finance will do it. Nothing will do it hut the plain call to begu paying off definitely what we ow and to bring our expenses within our means. He will not appeal in vain to the old examples and the old salutary sequel. If he would dwell quite freely m the com frast between British practice and foreign. in the last few years he could make an arrr. schelming case. :

BRITAIN MORE PEDSPEROUS THAN EVER.

That there will be some months hence a Supplementary Budget bearing on war- wealth may be taken for granted. Mr. Austen Chamberlain's personal position is very strong. He has brought young and keen blood into the Treasury during the last eighteen months, and nu Minister is now served by an abler staff. He has refused to be rattled or hustled, and by now he knows where the money in and by what steady means it can be made avail- able with the least disturbance of creative: activity and public confidence. He can tell can with, absolute certainly if he chooses that if the community only continues to pull together as well as it is doing at the present moment, Britain in five years from now will be more prosperous than ever.

"This is bat basking circles in New Yok are beginning to recognise with the double compliment of respect and surprise. The remarkable Trade Returns of the other day emphasise the same lemon. "Already we are probably paying once more for the whole huge mass of our indispensable im- ports by the value of our exports, and by Our services an oceaa-carriers tranship- pera, bankors, and agents.: Well before the end of the year, our external trade taken together should leave us an in- creasing margin to the good, and that will do more than anything else towards rigist.. ing even the American Exchange.

AN IMPRESSION FROM CONSTANTINOPLE.

·A· distinguished, visitor, just returned from Constantinople describes the Turizz- a people whom no hus known for years and liken, well-as infatuäfed once more with arrogance and complacency,” saya tho Observer. A year ago they would base taken any terms submizavoy. Now they believe that they won the war after all, and that the increasing dimensions and weakness of the Aflies will enable the Ottomans is a few years to get back all that, used to be theirs and more B(80.

They, wers not in the least impressed in Constantinople by the recent disciplin ary demonstration when the city was ro occupied by the Allied contingents. They rely on Mustapha Kemal's army far away in the interior of Anatolia. This in spite of the religious anathema launched against Mustapha Kema on the nominal beball of the Sultan and Khalif. Between Turks and Greeks since the occupation of Smyrna "Lbero is furious hatred. Between Moslems on both sides the Armenian project is desperate, and without the assistance of America or Bites, or both, no sure plan of salvation can be devised.”
