SO America is assured OF an era OF
magnificent economic prosperity after
the war. The influx OF the most cner-

number of the newcomers but also by
their Preventative virtue.
National production and wealth will

1000 it most probably will be over 200

The now thinly populated States Will
become filled, and agriculture will vie
in progress with industry, mining and
trade.
Do not believe, however, that it Is
exclusively, or even principally, the
flourishing economic state. the prospect
of easy and opulent earnings, which
will enticc millions OF Europeans to
migrate TO the United States; moral
considerations play as essential a part
in this impulse towards the West.
