There are Substantial grounds for

next few years, and a few Of them
are self-evident: a. A warlike ma
ton under the sting of defeat will
be eager to recover it's territory and
its power. (2) If it has undertaken
to pay crushing indemnity it will
be eager to throw off that burden
and place it on its enemies. Dollars
