A Norwegian writer deplores the
fact that there is so much foreign
money in Norway and that there are
so many foreign interests there and
suggests that the Norwegian people
in the future should discourage for
| eign investments. There is a vast
amount of British capital in Norway
and the holdings of Englishmen have
rather increased than decreased OF
| late years. Another writer who keeps
in close touch with the political life
| of Norway has found indications of a
new party. Its motto, says he, will
be- Till the soil and protect the coun-
try" And it will be young mans
| party as a starter. Certain portions
of the young people of the country
| have a strong faith in the future of
Norway and they oppose an increase
in the army and navy. In spite of the
marvellous development of the indus
tries of the country they hold that ag-
riculture, now as in the past, must be
the backbone of the country. The
( party will be looked upon as conserva-
tive, or even reactionary, by those ele-
ments that are dabbling in socialistic
experiments. The new party will not
call upon the state to take a helping
hand in everything that is to be done.
Those who live few years longer will
have a chance to see such a party
spring up out of the present paterna-
listic chaos.
