To Enlarge Stock.

To Enlarge Stock.
mo managing director of such a
concern with any sense Of his re-
sponsibility in its 2 future would
think Of starting anew by spending
all his working stock in order to pay
his present liabilities. On the con-
trary. he would try TO secure new
means in order to enlarge his pres
ent stock and meet his past and
present obligations by the future
products of his works. Germany has
been crippled by the war and it is
for the new generations growing
into manhood TO come TO the test OF
strength. We will have TO bear the
sreatest part of the present burdens
which. if paid off by the present
generation. wounded and bled as il
is after five years of warfare, would
Kill US and our offspring thus pre-
venting Germany's present creditors
