England's Financial Strength.

From Review or Reviews.
If. however. the problems are big. the
resources Of brain and Drawn and
purse are seemingly inexhaustible. In
recent years there has been a good deal
of foolish talk about the supposed de-
cadence Of Britain. Not a few Eng
lishmen have themselves fallen into
grave doubts on the subject. AS a
matter of fact. the nation never pos
sessed elements Of strength equal to
those Of today. A population OF 2O,OO),VOo
in 1915 has increased to one Of $4,000
OO0 In 1915 the nations accumulated
wealth was under $4,000. 0OO. 900; as late
as 1845 it was only G4.000.OO0.0OO; in
100000 today 1T is variously esti-
mated at from E12.000, 100000 to E15.-
600, 900, 900. The yearly addition to this
accumulated wealth in 1873 was CO.
000, 900; today it is f3OO.0O0.00O. or SIX
times as much.
The total foreign investment of Brit
ish subjects, almost negligible guam

mated at E2,7O0, 100000 upon which
there is an annual income of not less
years the placement of British capital
in foreign countries. largely suspended
during the previous decade. has been
resumed on a stupendous scale. greatly
to the Improvement OF Ioreish traoe,
and distinctly to the encouragement OF
public and private thrift. AT least
hundred millions were invested abroad
in 1908, and approximately the same
amount in 1909. These are merely a
few of the more obvious evidences OF
the financial power of the nation. OF
the ultimate ability Of the British peo-
pie to support a government Twice as
lavish as any yet on record there can
be not the remotest doubt. Assuming
that the principles of reasonable econ
omy are to prevail, the one towering
question is as to how the public burden
may best be adjusted SO that the is per
cent Of the population which receives
so per cent OF the national income and
possesses more than 80 per cent OF the
nations aggregate wealth may be made
to bear it's just share.

WASHINGTON, March 29.-Mov-
ed to the action, as he admits, by
the published charges of the ex-
istence of slavery in Mexico, and
that this government may be al
lowing itself to be used by the
Mexican government for the pun
ishment of Mexican offenders, Rep
resentatiye Nichols, of Pennsylva-
mia, introduced in the house today a
resolution requesting the attorney
general to furnish full information
relative to three prominent Mexi-
cans now in the federal peniten-
tiary in Arizona under sentence for
the violation of the neutrality laws.
The resolution was referred to the
judiciary committee.
