This of course sounds gra tilying to receptive ears but it may be well, before jumping too readily to conclusione, to examine the task that stands before the Allies.

Labour Troubles and The War:

Itisuomewhat disturbing to learn from Lord Kitchener himself that the question of an adequate sup ply of war material for the present and for the next two or three months is cinsing him serious. anxiety, but it is reassuring to gather from his lordabip's subse- quentremark that this delay in de- [livery of supplies is due to no other cause then dissatisfaction of the employees of the armament firms with the rate of trages they are r, ceiving. That is a matter which ahould not be diffi alt of prompt and satisfactory adjustment, Wo notice that in a public speech at Bognor, delivered nearly three weeks ago, Mr. Lloyd George frankly stated that the Govern ment was not getting the sesist ace it had every right to expect from the workshops. Industrial troubles are inevitable, but, sa ha said, "at a time like this it is into- lerable that the lives of Britons should be imperilled for the sake of s farthing an hour." The Chan- cellor mentioned that a small minority of men in the armament works, refused to work a full week and he expressed the opinion that this was "mostly due to the lure of drink." He added, significant ly, that the Government posses Besgreat powers to deal with drink and meant to use them moderately and diereetly; but fearlessly.
