marks great critic and
one Of the worlds foremost men of
letters, made to me in response to
question as to how he viewed the
future Of Europe.
Europe Is entering an era of
twilight" he proceeded. "It Is head
ed for period Of social and civil
warfare which is likely to last fifty
years and may last longer. 1t will
emerge from this warfare a So
cialist state. But the new Socialist
Europe may be faced by a war
greater and more crucial than any
the world has yet seen-a war for
the white mans right to leadership
in civilization, war with the yellow
races Of the world"
He continued:
II am astonished to find so few
people realize in what danger West
ern civilization finds itself as a con-
sequence of this war. Europe's man
hood has been drained by five years
of slaughter and blockade and now
Europe's industrial and economic
institutions are being undermined
by new standards of labor and
wages, which may be right theoret-
ically, may even be right economi-
cally, but which are dagger in the
hands of China and her 500, 100000

of white civilization.

six hours is already talked Of as be-
ing too long workday. Wages are
being pushed up higher and higher.
While the workmen Of Russia, Ger
many and elsewhere are trying to
usher in the millennium in this man
ner, China, with her millions of
workmen, is at the gate. She is
learning to use our machinery. She
is learning our mode Of industry.
One Of these days the Chinaman
will begin to use this machinery.
But with the white mans machinery
the Chinaman will continue to COM
bine his ten hours of work daily.
He will not ask for as high wages
as the white man does. He has no
need for such high wages. His stand
ard of living is lower. He has not
developed the vital need of pleas
ure and enjoyment which the white
man has developed. When that day
comes the civilization of Europe is
in the balance"
Brandes has turned his seventy
sixth year. His hair is all white
now, though it is as bushy as ever.
The war has saddened him greatly.
1t has cost him many friendships,
notably that of Clemenceau the
Tiger" Premier of France, whose
lifelong friend Brandes had been.
But, more than the loss of per-
sonal friendships, the steady ham,
mering and weakening Of European
civilization by the war has aged
and saddened him.
For more than forty years Georg
Brandes had been the Jealous watch
man of this civilization, standing
guard over the liberal movements cf
Europe. Every one of the forty
odd volumes he had written is
