find relatively little aid available in
the neutral countries. Germany now
depends practically entirely upon her
own internal resources, both of cur

Outsiders cannot determine exactly
how rapidly she is trenching upon
either and residents Of the country

likely to come to the end OF her
strength without much warning, and
unexpectedly. both so far as their
own people and the outside world are
concerned When the German nation
does thus reach the limit of its en-

countries The economic laws,
which are said by some to have becn
successfully over-ridden by German
