If Germany were vic- ,, torious (Herman shipping would occupy a inisrhty position in the world, whereas ' if she were defeated her shipping was p doomed to perish wliether or not she ( kepi her ships lying in American ports. BERNE, Jan. 7. I Dr. Schaefferr, a pronounced panc (iermanist, writing in the Leipziger I Neuesle Nachrirhten, admits that Hie , Allies are capable of destroying Germany's economical force. Already Germany's exports have erased and three-fourths of her manufactures been stopped, it will require years to pittch up her industry. Germany's future will be crushed under new taxes, as there is now no question of Hie enemy bavins to pay the cost of the war. Each will have to pay his own expenses, and England and Russia will do so more easily than Germany, which • iiuisl succumb beneath 'their development unless the war secures for Ger- ' many a large territory to ensure her ' economeial expansion.
