Rev. 15:4. ANOTHER PROSPECTIVE BUILDING PROJECT At the time the government decided to build the canal at Panama there were engineers who advocated it3 location at Nicaragua, and it is interesting to learn that interest is being aroused in the building of a canal across the latter country that would furnish another gateway from the Paci fic to the Atlantic. In going' through the Panama canal a short time ago one of our battleships, the Arkansas, scraped her sides, and just recently the English battleship, H. M. S. Nelson, on its way through the canal, not only scraped, but dented some of the heavy steel plates. The width of the locks is 110 feet, while that of the battleship is 106 feet, leaving only two feet leeway on each side. With the increasing size of traffic passing through the canal it is very evident that addi tional and larger facilities must be provided, and this ac counts for the interest now being manifested in the Nicara guan route. , With the Boulder dam project now under way, the likeli hood is that the proposed sea-level canal will be the next great government building enterprise, and it would result in the employment of thousands of men and a" demand for ' immense quantities of building materials and machinery. THE SOVIET CHANGES The soviet system is based on the theory that all members are equal and that all burdens and rewards shall be shared, but it seems that their principles may lie changed when the need is demonstrated. Down through the years there ha3 been evolved the prin ciple that all men have not the same natural ability, nor do all make the lest use of their talents, and now the soviet leaders have come to realize this in connection with the wages paid to the workers. It is now proposed that the lazy and indifferent workers shall not receive the same compensation as the industrious workers, and thu3 they recognize the principle now existing between capital and labor in practically all other countries. While it cannot always be said that a thing is good because it has heretofore been the custom, yet many practices have continued because they have been found to be the most workable. And one by one the Russian leaders are being compelled to admit that the practices in vogue in other countries, as a result of long experience, are worthy of consideration. A bee expert gives this advice: "don't coddle your bees." This seems quite sensible, and we are willing to co-operate to the limit. The only thing we ask in return is that our bees do not coddle us. When a locomotive whistles for a grade crossing it is a good time to believe all you hear. Those German philosophers not make a people tough, but Most any man may be popular by keeping; his opinions to himself. Life is too short to waste time in hating anybody. Briand Pursues Austro-German Customs Treaty PARIS. Mar. 30 i Foreign Min ister Arlstide Briand told the French senate Sunday tliat he was gom to pursue the affairs of the Austro-German custom treaty to the bitter end "On lha day when it t no longer pos sible to count on the loyal prcututi of International conventions there will be nothing left." he said.
