HUGE POSSIBILITIES
BRITISH EMPIRE AS ECONOMIC UNIT. MIGHT LEAD THE WORLD. London, October 28. “The British Empire is richer in resources and population than any other economic unit that could be created,” writes Sir Alfred Mond in the Spectator. “It is a greater economic force than the United States or the united Continent of Europe. It commands almost exclusively some of the world’s most vital resources, and if it were possible to develop this vast complex as one economic whole, each member of the combination would develop a prosperity far exceeding anything the world has previously known. It is most vital that we form that third economic .group necessary to counterbalance the industrial alliances between the United States and united Europe. We have potentialities capable of staggering humanity if certain difficulties can be gradually overcome.” —A. and N.Z.
