SOARING THE MORALE
 OUT OF 'EM
(From the Arkm Press)

(From the Arkm Press)
 Taking the cue from Lloyd Gearses recent declaration that Germany is cut off from the rest of the world and a nation that is severed from all other nations is doomed to destruction" Eng fish newspapers. notably the London Daily Mail. are trying 10 crack" Ger many's morale by threats of a 50-yrar trade boycott after the war.
 For 90 years. say, the anti German nations could close their ports to Ger man shipping For this term they could also cut off from the Germans neces- sites of industrial life which they con- trol, such as cotton. wool rubber, hides. copper. etc. And so on
 These British editors have America's best wishes but it is doubtful if Ger many will scare. because Germans can see the hole in such boycott.
 Germanys remarablc trade progress. during the decade preceding the war. was due to organization, efficient man. cement. production of high class goods and low prices thereon. If the peoples, after the war, no longer favor the best goods at the lowest prices" it will indicate a decided reversal of human nature
 When you come to consider closing ports to German shipping it is well to remember that Germanys trade bal ance against Great BrItian alone. be- fore the war, was over S200 000 900. That is British people needed and boussI,t or GerInHny these nIfHfon'5 worth more than the Germans bought f them.
 Certainly the allied nations could cut off from Germany such industrial ne ccssitics as cotton, cooper, etc. But when you come to crank up that pro- position, isn't 1t almost certain to "hack-f fire" and break your wrist? You propose to cut off from yourself the great trade that you have been carry ing to Germany
 If international trade quits chasing the profit dollar whithersoever 1t flees, if international trade goes to ann putating its nose to spite its face, the world will have a most extraordinary revolution against both natural and economic law. Germany is not likely to believe such a thing possible, and will hardly be frightened into quit ting the fight by so dubious a ghost

to our financial stability.

10 our financial SGIDlnty
 The wealth of the United States is estimated as in the neighborhood of two hundred billion dollars, or, rough ly speaking, twenty times the amount of the loans we have made. Germany with a population of about two thirds that of the United States and with a wealth considerably less than one half that of the United States, has floated seven different loans aggregating ap- proximately twenty billion dollars.
 In view of the comparative small ness of her national wealth and pop ulation one cannot help wondering how soon her ability to raise addition al sums will end. What makes the contrast between the United States government and the German govern ment all the more striking 1t that up to the present time Germany has done practically nothing to raise by taxation the money needed to pay the interest on her huge loans. According to a leading financial journal, not far from one half of the last loan must have been used to pay interest on the sums already borrowed.
