Norway's Weakness
Seen as Vital Factor
In AItmark Affair
...s ,
Germany and Britoin
Both Took Advantage
Of Her Neutrality
BY WILLIAM L. WHITE.

OSLO, Norway I don't see why
this isn't good time and an even
better place to go into the affair
OF the Altmark, which you should
remember was the German prison
ship so gloriously captured by the
British in Norwegian waters some
weeks ago.
The Altmark was loaded with pris-
oners taken by the Graf Spec, and
while 1t doesn't really matter II the
Germans succeeded in getting a few
hundred prisoners back to Germany,
nevertheless it was a big prestige
point with the Germans-partic-
ularly after the Graf Spec was sunk,
to be able to run the prisoners home
through the vaunted British block
ade.
1t should be noted in passing, how
ever, that the Germans could not
have hoped to run this blockade
without taking advantage Of Nor
wegian territorial waters. The Brit
ish could easily bottle up the narrow
entrance to the North Sea. But by
aiming for the long Norwegian coast
line, and then hugging it for several
hundred miles always within the
three-mile limit - the Germans
would have their only chance of
getting home, so their big prestige
point could only have been won by
taking advantage of weak little Nor
ways neutrality-and viewed in this
light, I can't see the high heroism Of
running the British blockade in this
fashion.
All Prisons Uncomfortable.
But now let's turn to the British.
Whether or not 800 prisoners got
through safely to Germany or are
recaptured by the British makes no
conceivable difference in the out
come Of the war. It takes little skill
and no heroism for a destroyer to
overhaul and board a lightly y-armed

What Wa Laekina7

1 only found shortage OF two
things,-parking space and cour-
age, can, with several million
other people. put up with the first,
but cannot tolerate the second.
Some day our various municipal
fathers will get around to provide
the parking space. but we, our
selves, must provide our own cour-
age. Are We wise to this situa-
ton?
In spite of the richness | saw,
believe that all the vast land. the
huge stocks OF raw materials. the
finished goods. the great transpor-
tation facilities of rail. truck, and
air are apparently serving only to
make us disconnected. What has
become OF the quality OF apprecia-
ton? There was hardly an indivi-
dual who talked &c me who did not
have something to beef about
Surely, II we do not wake up, many
OF the things | saw in this wide
country OF ours will be taken away
from us.
We Cannot QUIT Now
One of my associates recently
said that five years from now we
would look back on 1889 and 1910
as the good old years. He furth-
er asserted that there would be no
return to normally. Perhaps
that is a good word to leave out
OF the lexicon OF the professional
economist like myself. Perhaps
all of us must ultimately either
work harder or face lower stand
ards of living.
Quite probably the man on the
street today will not, in his life
time, lead a wholly peaceful. quiet.
and restful life. For years to come
he may chiefly be concerned with
politics. European affairs. and the
state OF the nation in general. But
We cannot quit. We must go on.
Win, lose, or draw,-it is your game
and mine. Let us quit talking and
go to work, remembering that the
normal life rightly calls for cour-
age and sacrifice.
