turn from the old and to start life
anew, with all of the hosts of new ideas
fomented by recent experiences with
wartime necessities in the fields of syn
thetic chemistry. machinery, trans
pcrtation and communications.
This new growth did not preclude,
however. the continuance of much that
was old and enduring in the worlds s
commerce. As the nations of Europe,
one by one, returned to their accus-
toned trade routes. they found am
pie opportunities awaiting them, un-
hindered by the expansion of the sales
of Americas specialties. which had been
stimulated by the new margins in the
advancing standards of living and the
awakening ambitions of the new ma
tionalistic spirit in many lands
Germany's exports to Colombia and
Venezuela today are three times their
pre-war value: her share in the greatly
increased total of Australian imports Is
6.8 per cent, as compared with 63 in
1918. and the corresponding figures in
her Indian trade are 7.3 and So The
United Kingdom has increased its ex-
ports to Australia by $130000, 900. and
to New Zealand by $43,0000 600, or nearly
30 per cent in both cases. Sales OF
French merchandise to Canada have
increased more than five-fold since the
last pre-war year.
Thus the newly stimulated buying
power in these competitive, economi-
,cally new trade areas has benefited not
only our exporters. but those of Europe
as well. Trade prospects for any nation
in any given market clearly are condi-
toned not so much by the efforts of
other exporters in that territory as by
the expanding buying power of the
populations in the market itself. Where
the Old World has lost in its interna-
tional commerce is in the trade within
its own shores. In 1918 the European
countries themselves supplied nearly 81
per cent of the total imports of the
countries of that continent; at present
the percentage is about Sc. This loss

The church takes the position that 1t
cannot be free in the exercise Of its
spiritual mission unless 1t is independ-

Laws of Guarantees, promulgated by
the government in 1871 and never ac-
cepted by the Holy See, the Pope IS
given exclusive Use and possession OF
the Vatican and its snneXes, but not
ownership. The Italian state. they
say. is free to take back what ii has
never legally released and hence in the
ewes of his faithful the Pope is nothing
more than a tenant subject to his
italian landlords. In fact he is a pris-
oner.
The Fascist dispute this logic and
argue that the Pope is not only free
but in fact he has never been as free
as he is now.
This, then. is the situation with ref
