 In the United States the entrance of new issues into the political arena has been followed by change of admins tration. But the great econt mic ques- ton on which the campaign turned is still unsettled, and it's solution is now committed to Congress almost equally divided between the two great parties.
 Europe is a vast camp. Army corps patrol the frontiers, and millions of men await the signal for the most titantlc war the world has ever seen.
