Greece and the War. M. Venizelos when again re- turned to power took a foremost. part in the organisation of the Balkan League. He realised, and frankly said, that Greece was not strong enough alone to make good her claims to Grete, and her claims to terri ory in Macedonia; bat aided by neighbours who had cqual interests in sweeping. the Turks from a great part. of their European territory, abe could assert her rights. The successful formation of the Balkan Lesgae, the events of the war, and the triumphant apdexation of O ete amid the en- thusiasm of the inhabitante, to gether with the conquest of a great part of Macedonia, will be fresh in the memory of the public, Owing to the illness of King Constantine the existiv 3 Govern- ment continase in ‹ffice and no |definite statement as to the faturs policy of Greece regarding the war will be made until the 20th of next month. But little straws. [show how the wind b'owe and the statement of M..Venizelos quoted above may be accepted as an in- dication of Greek intentions at no distant date.

The Railway In China.

A great proportion of the ex- ports from China are of a 'bulky and inexpensive character, and an increase in the trade is de- pendent upon, improvement in trapeport. Under the conditions. generally revailing the difficul ties and ccs of transport limit production to the needs of cir» cumscribed arcas, and it is culy when new country is opened up, by the oportunities offered by a« 'new

port or by the coming of a railway, that

producere find it profitable to extend their operations. To meet the national obligatione an in orease in exporte is absolutely necessary, and it is encouraging to see that such increase may be confidently anticipated to follow the development of the railway system." Unfortunately, the great war, which ie costing the nations involved so dearly, bas interfered very seriously with the further progress of railsay development in China, and though, as Mr. Taylor remarks in bis report, the war has had the good effect of leading the Chinees Government to rely more upon the national resources, there are manifestly unequal to the strain of maintain- ing the rate of progress in rail- way development in China which has marked the last fifteen years, in which period fomething like eight to78 miles of railway have been constructed in Chins,

47 Chino Mail, A The Supply of Munitiona la

Germany and France; ?

To Tiance, to-day, the product- ion of projectiles of all sizes amounts to 600 against the 100 considered" sufficient at the com- mencement of hostilities; and ja a short time it will be as much Ba 900 to 100. What we have managed to obtain with regard to projectiles we have, of course. done for the production of powder and explosives; the reaulty are even better, for, we have oteated some new engines, necessary for ighting in the trenches, such a bɔmbthrowers, grenades, eto. A. regards our heavy artillery, sinca the beginning of the war we have increased the number of our batteries sevenfold.

As to the supply of British munitions recent telegrame point to the wonderful work being done ander thesplendid organisation of Mr. Lloyd George. The British are a throughly practical nation and, having realised the necessity for a certain course, they never fail to adhere to it with determination and tenacity. They are grappling with the munitions question with a whole-hearted enthusiasm that cannot but be effective, realising that in supplying the vast quanti lies necessary and in utilising their enormous financial resourose they will thus with certainty bring the war to a victorious conclusion.
