stantly increasing foreign orders for
our food, raw materials and manufac-
lures have started American prosper
ity rolling up like a SNOWFALL
The war orders provided the initial
impulse needed for an industrial re-
viyal, but they are not really the most
important factor They are not likely
to total more than 20 or 25 per cent
OF the output OF our great manufactui-
ing industries. The really big factor
is agriculture.
The GOV ernment crop report based
on the outlook August l, supplements
the industrial report OF the national
chamber Of commerce The early op-
timistic estimates still hold. The
country is to have the greatest agri
cultural output the world has ever
seen.

These soldiers have already won
places in history by their iron cour-

the fate 0e France rests. they are the
commanders in chief of all the French
and thus far the whole world agrees
they have accomplished wonders.

PECULIAR NEUTRALITY.

Saturday Evening Post. Great
Britain has spent much effort in build
ing navy. which was not designed
for ornamental purposes, but specially
TO dominate the sea in war. Present
ability to import war munitions from
neutral countries is the natural fruit
OF that preparation. exactly as driving
the Russians out OF Galicia was the
fruit of Germany's preparations on
land. But hyphenated neutrality wants
this country to take away the advant-
age a supreme navy gives.
The navy is Englsnd's special
weapon. as the army is Germans. Ask
ing the United States to blunt Eng
lands weapon is a peculiar expression
of neutrality. The only theory that
would justify it is that Germany ought
to fix the terms on which her adver-
saries shall fight A suggestion that
Germany, instead of taking advantage
OF superior preparations on land,
should politely dismiss a third of her
army and scrap her big guns, would
have about the same standing in a
neutral mind as the notion that the
allies should not take due advantage
of their superior preparations at sea
