Don’t Be Deceivcd‘!

WASHINGTON—A survey of old
world conditions today presents to the
superficial observer many discourag-
ing aspects.
It is on the basis of these depress-
ing surface observations that We find
the basis of gloomy prophecies.
But there is possible a. sounder.
more searching analysis. from which
can be drawn a more wholesome and
a. happier expectation for the future
of Europe.
Pessimistic. View.
A pessimist would make this re- .its people facing today almost the
sumo of Europe:
The Turk, traditional barbarian. is
back in Europe. arrogant and defl-
nnt, claiming the right to close by
fortifications the open seaway of th
Dardanelles. ‘ -
Greece, stripped of its newly :.c-
qulrcrl expansion. visits its wrath with
middle—{15:0 savagely upon its luckless
public officials.
The Balkan states. ancient cradle of
world wars. fluctuate between un-
sound social experiments and lem~
pests of popular passion against min-
lstries.
Russia makes boasts of armed
force with its mythicalgarmies, while
its millions of people prepare for >1
new famine.
Austria. content as the internation-
al mcnfiirant. awaits the outcome of
financial and . economic administra-
tions by more capable peoples.

Italy. boasting since Garibaldi a
constitution under which the League
of Italian States has grown into a
great nation, sees today the seizure of
power by the Fascisti without consti-
tutional warrant. \
France, blind to the economic les-
son of history that no victor can col-
lect 60 per cent and more of the en-
tire wealth of n vanquished people,
refuses to face the realities and con.
tinues to spend vast sums in excess of
current recources.

prosperity on tlfla full employment of

question within the‘practical limits of
the honest attempt of the ~ German
people to perform. would make effec-
tive‘the needed financial aid to France
and Belgium. and would start the pro-
cesses of industry in central Europe.
Italy has‘demonmted that at least
its new rulers have honesty of pur-
pose in public service, and a tenacity
of will that promises sound national
progress.
If France beams today to tend tow;

sure that .the day will come soon with
its old true perspective of its proper
place and mission. Some just and fair
way will be devised'to secure from
