cause they've discovered that, in the
long run, warfare is disastrous even
to interests which make big profits
out of it temporarily, such a slump
always follows as to wipe all their
profits out and maybe more, too.
The steel magnate made his re-
marks at a Washington, D. c., gath

then that the United States presently
