by plebiscite, but never making good
the promise.
Now the acquisitions Of Prussia
and Germany in these wars of
conquest are precisely the fOun-
datiOus Of the economic develop

The coal taken in upper Silesia
and in the Snrre. the iron taken
in Lorraine. the agricultural

population had expanded so rapidly
that new territories were necessary,
and they marked out for themselves

ceired the possibility Of completing
the extinction Of Polish hopes BY TAX

This same expansion pushed them
into acute rivalry with the British.

produce vastly more manufactured
articles than they consumed, TO meet
their growing deficit in food. they
looked with ever increasing resent
