BANKRUPTCY
NOT TO HAPPEN
!. TO THE POWERS
And No Fear Need Be Felt That
There Will Be a Collapse of
World Finances.

PARIS, Dec. 9.-The answer OF
Paul Leroy Beaulieu. the French
economist, to the question will
Europe be plunged into bankruptcy
because Of the war" is mo. not even
Germany"
Concerning the result Of the pre-
sent enormous spending of money
by all the nations and the conditions
following the war. he forecasts acti-
witty with IN international CONNER
cial rivalry leading to high tariffs
in all the nations now at war, in
GLIDING free-trade England, and yet
higher tariffs in the United States.
He said while such situation
has never before presented itself in
history and while therefore all opin-
ions must be given with some reserve
I am confident that no fear need
be felt for n universal collapse OF
world finances. Tho destruction in
this war. save possibly in the lives
lost, has been exaggerated In the
public mind. Not single nation In
volved will be irretrievably ruined.
The enduring power Of accumulated
wealth has been underestimate. 1t
will take not more than ten or twelve
years for the world to recover from
its losses.
II estimate that the war will have
come to close by next autumn.
Then there will set in period OF
manufacturing activity the like Of
which we have never known. This
period has been made necessary by
the physical damage done. by tho
diversion to war supplies OF factories
once engaged In making cloth and
what not. During this reconstruc-
ton period we will work harder than
formerly. There will not be the
stagnation which paralyzed the
southern states after the Civil war.
Another result OF the war will
be the increasing taxes by each ma
tion involved and the raising OF tariff
tn ecollect revenues. England will
do like the rest. free-trade country
though she is, and despite her COM
paratively less war loss. The United
States, while 1t will not have to. will
increase her tariffs. Although Ger
many is suffering far more than any
OF the other nations. since she is
fighting them all. and spending huge
sums, will not be totally ruined by
the war. 1t will. however. take her
longer to recover.
Naturally, after couple OF years
Of intensive manufacturing. the ma
lions will have caught up with their
old supplies. will have repienished
their depletion stocks OF manufactur-
ed goods. and there will come then n
slowing down in industrial activity.
THE United States is profiting. in
