Since the presentation of his resolution in the Senate Senator Borah's mail has brought a great number of letters from groups and individuals—and notably from religious bedies-aft over the country. Their general tenor, is that, whereas the writers: hitherto, believed that only the League could prevent the continuance of the war breeding armament race, and had opposed the irreconcilables as militarists, they now were inclined to see in the pre- occupation of the irreconcilables with disarmament a proof that the Lengne was not indispensable to peace, and to come round to the opinion that the United "States was better off without being tied to Farope. **

The irreconcilables are sanguine that, if they can push through the reduction scheme now, they can cut the ground from under even the association plan. Without it they would have difficulty in squaring their irreconcilability with the should be done towards the reduction of obvious popular wish that something the risk of war, but with it they can still harden their, bearts against the League idea and face their constituents.

From the opposite camp Mr. Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, to-day stated that he had not so far been advised that Prest dent Wilson contemplated thes calling of any World Disarmament Conference. Commenting on the Borah resolution; Mr.. Daniels added, "It would amount, to nothing less than another alliance, for the nations concerned would still wield the balance of power of the world. It would be reasonable to expect that the remain- ing nations would soon form an entente, and we should soon have a condition Identical with that which caused the world war.”

The post has been offered to one who is neither a superman, nor even a superior person. For if he is conscious of others, defects, he is not less conscious of his Down: To the public he was a successful lawyer who became Lord Chief unsime Like others who bave eacceeded at the Bar, he made his name by being engaged in the affairs of men who, as a class profess the most profound, contempt for law and lawyers, the business men. When theso get into touch with the leaders of the Bar they are surprised at the rapidity with which such men grasp the principles and details of a case, but they are often annerved by the questions they are put before the why and wherefore can be enunciated. Then it all seems so plain to never saw it before. Some of them then realise that you cannot ran a nation as you do a business. The training that a successful leader at the Bar receives teaches him to know what he does not khow and realise what he must know before he can define or develop his posi- tion in any matter. Of course, some successful lawyers are no good outside the daw. But, those who, like Sir Robert Horne or Mr. Shortt or Viscount Cave, have gone into-other fields of life realise the value of this training. But when a man becomea a Judge of the High Court the attitude of mankind changes to him. He has become a being invested with enormous powers'; 'he holds in his hands the power of life and death. Reverence. and regard for his position is his due. On the Vivegnis artillery practice He becomes the subject of an inarticulate ground near Liege fresh experiments have criticism" which may run and ultimately been made with the new Turbo capnan be expressed in any direction.
