the Kaiser.
Washington, June 22.-Germany's
activities in Finland and the Aland
Islands are causing fears among the
northern European neutrals that a
Middle Sea of the North" is con-
templatcd by the autocratic centra!
powers as an adjunct to their ag-
gressive plans Tor an economic and
military alliance against the world
under the name of "Mittel Europa"
The results obtained by the Ger
mans in the Russian Baltic states
give the neutral northern countries
much loom for after thought" de-
clares DR.. Jur c. Asche, the Scandi-
navian economist in an article re-
ceived here in official dispatches.
"The operations of the Germans in
the Baltic provinces may have con-
sequences which no peace congress
ever will have power to etace.
The Germans desire to connect
Finland in an economic way with
middle Europe. Finland is coun-
try of raw materials. If Germany
becomes master of the Baltic, and
Finland becomes an independent
state with economic connections
with middle Europe, Russia's wish
to extend toward the west is prob
ably once for Ill made impossible.
Not a Future Dream.
'In order for Russia to get on her
feet again she must hnd an outlet
for her natural riches, and when She
has no way open to the west, She
must get there by aid of the middle
European group, especially Ger
many, and by aid of Scandinavia
In this way an interchange OF trade
between Scandinavia, the middle
European group, and Russia, and
the entire Mohammedan world
would be possible, and not simply
future dream.
with regard to Norway, it is not
out of the question that this country
will have to consider seriously
whether she will not have to lean
more 10 the east and south than
now is the case
Bearing on the same subject IS an
abstract from Affarsvarlden, lead
ing Swedish trade journal:
"Germany's actions on Aland and
in Finland, and the inclusion OF
Finland in the German protected
states. Is very serious thing tor the
economic life and the whole future
of Sweden" it says. FINLAND ana
possibly Russia under German eco
nomic and political control are a
menace to Sweden greater than any
before. There are already indica-
,ions 10 show that Germany is eN-
tending her new influence as 1ar
north as Spitzbergen.
AS to Finland.
III Finland forms an economic
union with Germany, which, tor
anyonc who knows Germany, Will
mean only that Finland becomes
ierman vassal state, this will have
, great lrfuencc on the Swedish eX-
port market for timber, wood, pulp
paper. etc., in which Sweden has
heretofore competed with Finland.
The economic future OF Sweden /
has been greatly shadowed by the
events OF the last few weeks.
Whether it viii have any political
influence remains to be seen.
