for the

to be glad.
The
star
of
peace
that appeared
a year
ago
1S rapidly
-
becoming
fixed in the firmament ot the na-
tions
ol
the earth
due tothe long strides
being taken
by
the treaty-making
power
towards
the
ratification
of

which lowered
the eurtain

'L'he coming of peace
leads
us

to the dawning of a
new day
for
which
we should
be very graceful.
With
safe-

¢y in our humble
homes
from
the

derous duties
of war
we
are
the
better

able
to reap
the
crops
which it
has
been

our good fortune
to have spared
to us from

the cruel
hands
of draught
and
of
hur-
ricane..
After
turning
away
from
the

former duty
in
the military protection
of
our homes
{rom the contemplated
ravages

of the enemy
we¢
may

upon
a constructive
period
with

While giving thanks for

ed:
Mr.
Chairman,
As
a
member
oi
the
Committee
avpointed
to
report
on
i
this
measure,
1
ean
say
that
1
have
agreed
with ail the changes
which
hLave
heen
embadied
in
tae report.
It is true that
men
in the
Police
Force
are receiving
twenty
dollars
per month,
but
under
the
present
Ordinance
they
.
will receive
more.
I feel
myself that
in
order
to
have
an efficient
orce
it
is
ne-
'
cessary
to pava
living
wage.
I
agree
with
the
Committee
Report
and
recom-
mend
its adoption.

remarhed:
Mr.
Chairman.
At the
meeting
of the
Com-
mittee it was mentioned
that the amounts
stated
in
paragraph
5
of
(he
bill
be
changed
tu irancs
instead
of
dollars,
but
[ do not remember
whether
any
decision
was
reached
on
this
item.
Ido
not
know
what
kind
of
dollar
is
meant,
whether
&4merican
or the
so
called
dol-
lars
now
in
circulation
he:e
in
this
ls-
land.
it would be interesting
to
know
?
2nd Appoeinted
Member
(Noll) repiied:
Mr. Chairman.
I know
thereis
a
Dan-
ish
West
indian
Dollar
in
circulation
in this Island which
is
worth five francs,
and
1
presume
that the
Committee
was
-
referring
to a Danish
West
Indian Dollar.
