The powers have reached the point where the orgy of spending for arms must stop or civilization will become In solvent. France keeps an army of 140.000 men on the Rhine. ' .Is affects your porketbook almost as dlrectlp as If V that army were paid out of the Treasury in Washington. The world is the American mar- j ket. While that market is bankrupt, while the money you need la spent I on war. there can be no real pros perity In your business. The >1,500.000 interest due the United St a tea every day on its Ioann I to its late allies cannot be paid while the nations live in fear of each other, and feel the necessity of keep ing up Mg war machines as safe guards against further aggression. A committee of big. representative business men went to Europe and In vestigated this whole subject for the ! Chamber of Commerce of th# United States.
