THE ROOT OF THE MATTER. I Parliament meets aftør the JEa&ter recess to fip4 ihself face to faco with the same prob- lems a.occupč.d ita a.ttenticn be fore the holidays. There is, iu fitct, no getting away from tho essential mattor therein tho whole. of our success in prosecuting the war to a suc- cessful issue imwt until the nation is brought to A full realist ion of its urgency aaid importance. That matter we need scarce- ly say is the recruitment of the vhole of our inoji-power either for tiV- Army or for sus- taining the national strength. The subject crops u:p in various gui-ct, but underneath the varying oitwuad we find the {.-utho- grappling with tho same difaculty. Apart "from tho necessity of prolonging the life of the present Parliament Lie topilC f "re- most in the mir-d,8 of politicians is the settle- ment of the Irish question. But it is no secret that the prime argument for com- posing this ancient feud between Ulster and the rest of Ireland at the present time J8 the overwhelming Mnportanc? of bringing the Irish people t? service in the field. We are short of men. how seriously fchort was made clear tOll;" all by the wef.yhty epcoches of Sir William Robertson and Sir John Jellieoe. Because Ireland lliin a position to eupply us with a con.s^c! able proportion cf the very men we need, the urgency of making a great effort to settle tho Irish question is apparent. That tho problem has been occupying the tim.) of Ministers, during the recess, is ob vious by the publication of the nc-nv schemra ,vvlhich Mr Neville Chambc-jlain has uow pub- lished for the purpose of adapting the ma- chinery of the National Service departmcflU to thiá general needs of the nation. What- ever happens recruits for the Army rnilst be foutiil. Our ivh-ole-existelkce is at stake and involved in the- maintenance of our striking forces at full strength. Unless we crush the enaxmy, the enemy will crush us, and w. ihave to overwhelm him with man-power even a.s it appears (hat TO have already outiitripped him in materia! efficiency. Tho War Cabi- net, we may be quite sure, will see to it th;vt th::J Gümands of the Army for men arc not dis- regarded, even though the nation at home is put to suffering and sacrifice. Whatever our (sufferings as civilians may be, it would bo impious to mention them m comparison the sufferings and sacrifices of the gallant men who are lighting so glor- ilOusly and .successfully for us. In any event nfflther the British Government nor the British people will consent to leave our own Armies or the a.rmies of our Allies in the lurch for the akoof thield'img anyone whose duty it is to take part in the light. There must bo a very complete "combing out" of eligible men from all civil occupations, and even such- essential .sorvioes a,s munitions, t-hip buil<Ling; agriculture and mining in or- der that we may make our knock-out bioiw a certainty. But inasmuch as the Army itself as well as the whole well-being of the civilian population depends upon the maintenance of tho essential trades, substitutes must be found for the men who go to the Army. Still there arc no end of noin-et=s'jntial business concerns in the land; there are thousands of men and women who are occupied with matters which have no relationship to the exigencies of war. These men and woineq must habituate them- selves to the thought of putting themselves to the service of the nation: they must como without delay to offer themselves as vol un- teers in National Service.. Under the i ew scheiro-a development really of Mr Chamberlain's original plan—employers and employed in every locality will be asked to oettle amongst themselves how and to what extent meal may bo 3cleased from non- essential work to engage themselves in occu- p::tiene' 'Ô.f. importance to the whole com- munity in war. It is to he hoped the new arrangements will bo promptly made; for the deana-nd is absolutely urgent. And mean- while men and .womCil1 who may not be directly affected by the new developments should be urged to eiirol-ae volunteers on their own account. A full day's work of an essential nature is required to-day from everv citizen of both sexes. The. shortage of man- power is felt all the world over. It is crippling production everywhere, a fact which has induced President Wilson, just as tho United States enters upon war, to seriously a'ppeal to every American mall and woman io come forward to helo ir. national work. WTiien America calls possibly millions of men to arms the shortago of men in the produc- tion of food and otiier essential commodities will be still further accentuated. If we are to win the war—if we are to fight it with any- thing like efficiency, we must all definitely determine to do our full day's work in the great caue-c. I
ITHE APOTHEOSIS OF HINDEN.BERG.
THE APOTHEOSIS OF HINDEN- BERG. Amidst the general gratification cauecd by the masterly strokes of the Allied Armies, particularly on the Western front, nothing is really mere. significant than the fall, so to apeak, in llindeiiberg stock. The critics; both military' and jwlitical, are rapidly comivg round to tjio opinion that the one and only German is not re-incarnated Corsican after all; is, in fact, a very much over-rated soldier whom we too readily acccpted as a prcdigy of military genius simply because tho enemy ehcee to put him on a high pedestal. As e. natural consecjucuce of the dwindling of tho Hindeniberg cult, wo are beginning to roaliPo that we and our French Allies are not mtirely destitute of great leaders. Froui the first, of course, the modesty and restraint of Ilaig's communiques and despatches were sufficiently impressive to excite general COll- inent and time has deepened the impression; until ar last men everywhere are beginning to feel that, possibly, it is the British Field Marshal with his great French colleague, tho generalissimo on the whole line, wiho will eventually dominate tho war. General Nive'lo's offensive over a front of twenty-five miles, from Soiseons to Rheims, coming nn top of the glorious news of the British attack on the new Hindenbeig line not unnaturally tend^ to cast further doubts on the value of H-iiidiMil>erg legend. Where wil! he j, t rilie?, Thar was the one pre-eceupation of the critics a month ago. Was ne preparing fo-i a gre-it stroke on the Northern part of the Russian line J1 Would ho concentrate for a final and destructive blow against Italy? Was lie meditating a grand coup in tho direction of Odesea? And so on, but ihese t,ucation« soefti rather out of date. It is even suggested that men were ro wrapped up "with what Hin- denberg intended that they forgot entirely that w is a game at which more than 0,110 party ecu play. While all sorts of questions were asked as tó what HindenTtferg intended, Haig and Nhello in the West, Sir Charles Monro and Sir Stanley Maude and others m the East were making'sure; so that-by now it almost appears as if Ilindenberg hasi his" hands pretty full not in striking hirfnself 0\11" in parrying the shrewd blows of perhaps bet- tor men than hiineelfi
I NOTES OF THE WEEK.
I NOTES OF THE WEEK. I This week has witnessed the opening of the May meeting season. A few meetings will also he h-eltl next week, and then they will come with a rush. Some curtailment in the order of proceedings is expected, and with the restxictirno on travel, visitors from tho country will be very few. But London sup- porters of the societies represented will, it is believed, muster in unusual force. One of the most important meetings of the season is that of the. Central Church Committee for Defence and Instruction which lias been fixed for Friday afternoon, May 18th, at the Church House. The Archbishop of Canterbury will preside, and Lord Huojh Cecil, M.P., will be i the principal lay speaker. It is hoped that the Bishops of St. Asaph and St. David's willbo present and Colonel Sir Arthur Boscawcn, M.P., vice-chairman, and several members of the Executive Commiitteo will at- tend to support the President. The debate in ihe House of Commons on Tuesday night showed how important it is that tho Welsh Church question should bo kept steadily be- fore the country, and Churchmen will look to the speakers at the annual meeting of tho Central Church Committee to give them a clear indication of the line of action, to 00 taken pending the reconsideration of the Act with a view to its repeal. » » < Our readers will reniemb-cr that the new issue of Exchequer JJonds commenced on the 13t,h of the present month. At prceeut the lowest denomination on sale is £ 100, but on April 25th the lower va lues— £ 5, £ 20, and i:50—will be made available to the publio through tho Post Office. This excellent in- vestment yields 5 per cent. The bonds cau be s.ald at any time by holders who wish to rcaJiso their caah price, and they are rc- deemable by the State in 1922, or in 1919 if the holder signifies his desire to choose the earlier diate and conforms to simple condi- tions for tho purpose. The bends may bo used in payment of death duties, excess pro- fits duty, and muiiitio-n levy, and will bo accepted for such payments at their face value with allowance for interest due. Those wh.o save money by frugal diet and invest tho money so saved in Exchequer Bonds or War Savings Certificates are deably- helping to Avirn the war. « Tho International Agricultural Institute, whoso headquarters are at Home, has issued an important statement on the World's wheat eupplies, which we summarise as follows:-— The yj,:d of wheat in 1916 and 1916-17 is not ( yet known for tho following eorntries:- Germany, Austria-Hungary, Belgium, Bul- 1 garia, Luxemburg, Russia in Asia, Chile, and" Uruguay; out in tho case of the following1 countries it is known: Denmark, Spain, France, Great Britain, Ireland. Italy, o- way, .Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, Canada, United States, India. Japan Algeria. Egypt, Tunis, Argentina, Australia, and Now. Zealand The total jieid of wheat in these; > countries is estimated at 293,38-1,000 cwts., o* 27.7 per cent. ?low the yield of 1916 and 16.< ? per cent, bc!c.w the. average of t.?e five veart  IMI-J5. We may allow what value wo pteas? rel to the quantity in the statement, but the Jl figures ?how that the U-Îat piracy does not mainly ctiiiso though it greatly aggravates the present wheat shortages in this country, and bey show still more plainly the impera- tive necessity for all possible economy in tho use of bread and flour in every household in the land. » » » Another interesting development, signifi- eviit of the changes brought about by tho war, has just taken place in the position of women in tho Anglican Church. At the Easter vestry meeting of the parish church. at Bedford Park six women wpro elected id1 the now office of sideswomen. These womelk will rank with the sidesmen elected at th-i i same mooting, and their duties will be similai to thoso exercised by tlis nieti--iia.-ilely, assist- J ing at tho church services, taking collections, and £ >o on. I'ho church concerned is an active community in u district known for its free- dom from conventionalities. Soon after tlld war started the new conditions were quickly assimilatod. Headed by the vicar's wife, e band of women occupied tbomselyea iii clean- ing tho church and attending to the services. < When the verger left to undertake national sorvico this baud of women became a guild of church helpers, and the election of certain of their nuniber to the office of sideswomen is a natural lesult. i The fnends of tho Church in Waks were disappointed,,that, the' rulej of the House, pre- J vented tlieir presentation of au appeal on its bo h a'. f 'cn TLi ?- d -,i y behalf cn Tudsday. It is,' however, hoped (says the London correspondent of pool Courier) that an early .opportunity may be found of raising the topic in the House ,f iLoroo {mi securing a full debate on it. M^uwhilo *Ltird Hugh Cecil, in conversation on,the.subject in the lobby, pointed out that Î it was only just to delay tlue coming into- j operation of the Act for some time after the -1 moment of peace, a.t which it is now fixed. "Twelto months," said the noble lord, "would
