Bouth China Morning Post,

Italy and the Dardanelles. It is an open secret that for some time past Italy has been massing troops-artillery, infan try and davalry on the island. of Rhodes. Is this not signifi- oant? The "wait" and nee policy of Greeos leaves the way open for Italy, and the Greek islande in the Aegear not available, why should not the future base of operations against Turkey be the Aegean islands now occupied by Italy ? It certainly appears as if some thing important is on the wind. From the naval point of view alone the release of the more mo dern British veseela at the Dar-" danelles for service in the Adriatic would greatly inoresee the balance of Allied power there, while their substitution by old type and slow Italian vessels would not materia]- ly weaken the naval position at the Dardanelles. Twenty to thirty thousand Italian troops would also enable The Allies the more spaedi ly to dispose of the obstacles which have hitherto obstructed their progress on" the Gallipoli peninsula.

War and Thrift. The advice issued by the British Government for the practice of thrift raises some vexed quistione as to how far the thrift is to be carried whether, as some of the. papera contend, it means the abandonment of all luxuries by "all classes, or whether it will not give better results if practiced lesa thoroughly. Many years ago, after the war with Rassis, an Imperial Rescript was issued in Japan, commanding the obeerv anda of the utmost thrift and economy. The document, ropal- arly known as the Boshin Edict,. has from time to time met with

eevere criticism, on the ground. that it increased the dullness of trade following on the war and thus resulted in doing more harm than good. Whether the Edict was intended to be applied in such a whole-sale manner da it was, is an open question-it may be that it was merely intended By a warning against waste, and 'a pation to wasteful of supplies and material as the Japanese would certainly benefit by some such in struction, However, this may be, it was taken by the Japanese people to mean. enforced abstin- Fence from all luxuries and even semi-luxuries, with the result that the producers of these, and ell dependent upon them-suffered so severely that the depression in trade was iporessed without the wealth of the country being materially increased. It would be well, therefore, for us to pon- der over the example in Japan before committing ourselves to a regime of all-round economy.

A well placed lesd bullet in just sacleotaal en the battlefield, while the silver bullets fall each preek in the manufacturing dis- tricts at home end Boross the Atlantic, and produce motor transport-lorrien machine-tools, gune, and shells. Each item is sent to the place where it will be most useful; it is only in the case of men that we exercise no die crimination, and leave it to their selection as to what they shall do. Possibly we shall win through without conscription, but there certainly ought to be firm goid- snca brought to bear on oll willing reoraits to decide in what capacity they shall serve, and this control should not only be regulated by the needs of the moment, but should also take sccount of the future. Many of our needs can be met by trans ferring our liabilities to posterity, but knowledge, skill, and enthusiasm cannot be gained in that way. These we must supply ourselves, and it is an ill proceeding to be unnecess prodigal of them at the pre time. In this respect we to posterity to conserve our as far se possible, so that wh the present generati sway, fitting Buccessor available to take thei
