As the war progresses it is borne In upon us more and more
forcibly that it is not enough to provide for the coming month
or the coming vear. We must take account of the needs of the
future.

democracy for which we are expanding every effort.
England expresses this In a. single sentence:
"There Is no waste so irretrievable as that of a nation which
' is careless of its rising generation.”
From France comes the message:
