AMERICAN ELECTIONS
' To-day, America," says the Economist, "with her eyes blinded by the dust of the electoral arena, is in no mood to think over-much of world problems. By the autumn the atmosphere in the United States will be different. If a final settlement be achieved at Lausanne it will be impossible for the American ' man in the street' to avoid saying to himself: ' In order to remove what they conceived to be a fatal obstacle to the recovery of international trade these * Europeans have cancelled their claims in respect of inter-Governmental war debts among themselves, although they knew that they ran the risk of still having to pay their debts to ' America at the cost of a great burden to their own Budgets. Should we not perhaps be wise to follow the same policy in our own interests ? "
