ENGLISH
ARE lei STRENGTH

Stockholm, Dec. 1.-The Svenska
Dagbladet publishes 4 report by Pro.
lessor Gustav Cassel, a national au.
thority, on Financing the. War" He
says in part:
Those countries; which are big
.icreditors of,the neutrals have natural
.ly a special strength in war time. in
that maturing liabilities are readily
taken up. This is most distinctly seen
in the case OF England, which under
normal circumstances invests between
.$~50,000,000 and 1876 100000 per
month abroad, this, being the. normal
form for the application Of the sur
plus Of England's balance against for
'eign countries. Should England now,
as might be the case. cease to make
these investments the corresponding
amount would stand at her monthly
disposal. ~
This explains the excellent financi-
al strength Of England just now. EnE.
land is the capitalist par. excellence
who can live on the returns of her
capital. and who. thanks to her re-
sources. can force the whole world to
contribute towards her war expendi-
ture." M.
