wv yHAT effect will the great Eu-

w ed States? This question is
on the tongue of every think
Ing American. and the views of ex-
perts who are busying themselves with
deductions from the trend of events
are therefore of pertinent and vital
Interest
To start with, America is the worlds
richest nation. its accumulated wealth
of S150.O00.O00.00 being almost double
that of Great Britain and Germany.
Sir George Paish I'm his paper, the
Statist OF London, says that at no
time in history has the economic con-
dition Of the world improved as rapid
ly OF as much as In the last hundred
years. While all countries have not
advanced at an equal rate. all have
progressed. Sir George finds that the
