GERMANY FACING RUIN.
ECONOMIC ISOLATION CERTAIN The puzzling thing about the situation is that the high finance, which is—with the exception of Krupps—• entirely in the hands of the Jews, does not make its' influence felt, and instil a little aanity into the heads of generals and professotß Men like Herr Ballin, for instance, mUBt know that the prolongation of what has become a war of mere exasperation can only swell the bill of costs and render more certain Germany's economic isolation. ■ The neutrality of the United States was the one chance of Germany's rehabilitation, and that chance has been sacrificed to an insane belief that England could be starved by submarines. Raw materials and customers are the two things needful for Germany's recovery, and where will she get either? After another twelve months' war who will make a commercial treaty with Germany? Who will shake hands with her Ambassadors.?— Saturday Review.
