Peace for the Present

_ Premier Chamberlain of Great Brit-
ain accomplished a history-making tas
when he succeeded in bringing about
” peaceful meeting between himself,
the Premier of France, and the Dicta-
tors of Ttaly and Germany, and smooth
ei out the trouble between Germany
wud-the Czechs, and averted a ‘world
wnr for the time being at least. The
peace of the world huog in the balance
for some days, and a slip would have
heen disastrous to civilization. It is to
he hoped that, now that the world
yiowers have had a lesson in- what dis-
cussions of a peaceful nature can ac-
complish, they will resort. to that way
of settling differences in future. It is
the wish of all that there be-no war,
but the frank nd file do not put much
confidence yet in the promises or the
treaties of some nations. Time will
tell whether’ thuse nations are worthy
of trust agnin. . :

The great majority of :old soldiers
were prepared to joln the ranks again
nud fight another war for world peace,
Loven criples from the last war were
wixious to make another go of it even
though they only filled positions at
home and helped with recruiting and
drilling reeruits.

But, now that the war scare is over,
where do we go from here? Certainly

the vast armies of the world are not|

guing to be demobolized at once, and
those same vast armies, fleets (air and
water) will be & constant souree of
danger, The leaders of the democra-
tic countries have still a huge task be-,

We dally chaps get to known our cos-

The weeklies could hold a mirror 1 up
