Editorial Notes

Peace-Victory has been declared by the United Nations and the end of the war is at hand. But the peace which was expected to follow has not yet arrived. War time measures of rationing and control of bare necessities are still in vogue. Prices are still at abnormal levels, and hardship is being felt everywhere. Rewards for wartime service has not in general been adequately granted at the proper moment and, in consequence, frequent upheavals of demonstration, expressing dissatisfaction with existing conditions of service, have taken place, resulting, on a few occasions, in breach of the peace and resort to police aid.
