power would be calamity to the
whole world, which would be infinitely
poorer by such loss. England knows
that if she loses the contest she may
cease to be a leading world power She
would be fatally isolated, and the star
of the British empire, one of the most
beneficent forces in civilization, might
even set into deaths dateless night.
To Germany it is now in truth, as
Bernhard predicted from the begin
ing, either "Weltmacht oder Nieder-
gang" ("world power or downfall").
To the far-seeing American who has
imagination, 1t Is clear that the tnde-
pendence and prestige Of America
would be seriously compromised by the
defeat OF the Allies; but its distance
from Europe, its self sustaining eco
non1ic resources, the vastness of its
area, the magnitude of its population
and the pArochial outlook in world poll
itics suggest to the average man q
possibly mistaken belief in its inyinci-
bility. The average American has not
yet begun to appreciate the immense
hazard to Americas future that would
be involved in it's defeat,
many enables 1t by the mere power OF
force to preserve for a time the morale
of its people; for any one in that land
of horror who openly questions either
the Justice of the war or the ultimate
success of the German arms speedily
finds himself in prison or against a
wall and facing the firing line. In q
country like the United States, where
individualism is highly developed and
the free expression of opinion is car
iinal rule Of our public life, and where,
by reason Of our heterogeneous popu-
lation and our varying degrees of rae
ial strength, there is necessarily the
widest variety Of opinion, it Is not so
easy in the face Of disaster to preserve
by mere force the morale Of the people.
Germany is controlled by highly CEN
tralized force; America, by a fluid and
uncertain public opinion. When the
world has been made safer for demo-
cracy it will then be necessary to
make democracy safe for the world.
