AFTER WAR GLOOM
NOW GRIPS ENGLAND
THAT COUNTRY is PASSING ONE
OF THE BLACKLIST PERIODS
IN IT'S HISTORY.

LONDON, Eng.-The abysmal
gloom and general depression of
England in the months following the
end of the worlds greatest war will
probably go down as one of the
blacklist periods in the nations his
tory. TO casual observer it would
appear that the country is on the
verge of disintegration; that the in
dustrial and economic structure is
about to shatter like an incandescent
globe thrown against a brick wall.
The reaction from all the rigors,
stress and strains of the past four
years of warfare is upon the people
with deadly vengeance.
The pits of gloom-the veritable
depths of despair-were reached in
recent address by the Dean of st.
PauPs, who made the fiat statement
that England was reverting to the
conditions of the mid-Victorian pc
Rod He was speaking before a con-
gress of eugenics, and played upon
the susceptibilities of his hearers by
picturing gradual decadence of this
generation through the effects of the
war and the domestic unrest general
over the world. He was of the opinion
that the present generation was so
weak that it could not produce any
outstanding figure, and would grad
ually slip down the line of degenera-
cy to a point where the better part
of the population would migrate,
leaving those Who were too weak to
get out of the country to the agra
rian life, depending mostly upon ag-
riculture FOR their livelihood.
Press Is Antagonistic
Another depressing element is the
tone of the press, which seems deter
mined to tear to pieces every progress
sive movement, to block the govern
ment, to hold up the middle classes
to ridicule, and anathematiZe all la
Dor movements as downright bolshev-
ism In other words, the columns Of
the daily papers, and even of the
periodicals which are ordinarily opti-
mtstic seem to take delight in de-
structive criticism and to conscien-
tiously bar all of the little touches of
brightness that usually enlivened
their reading matter during the dark
est days of the war.
Even during the time when the
government really was shaky as the
result of the sudden change in 1916,
and when the armies afeld were be-
ing pounded cruelty by the enemy
the British press was nobly and en-
Enthusiastically optimistic. But today,
when the west c-.sis in the worlds
history is past, and the danger of
real invasion to England has faded
from the horizon like the mirage lift
ing from the desert, and when the
outlook for the future really should
be bright and filled with all the sun
shine Of peace, the stanch British
writers have skunk off into the chasm
of despair.
