NEWS OF THE WEEK. _
INDUBITABLY the two most important events of the :week have been the acceptance of the American terms for funding the British Debt and the continued and increased difficulties experienced by France in her occupation of the Ruhr. With both these vital matters we deal at some length in our leading columns. Suffice it here to say that, though to-day these problems seem completely unrelated, yet soon it may become apparent that they are most vitally interdependent, and that what we believe is the happy solution of the former may point the way of peace and satisfaction in the latter, where all now seems so dark and hopeless.
