i i eighteen months Germany to nil intents and purposes will be broke. She will have sunk most of her liquid assets into a great army, air force and navy, an immense road program, barracks and i itary factories. Germany's present gold reserve of one per cent of America's--then will be gone, and unless England or France advance loans, she will not have sufficient foods and raw materials to continue her war expansion program. Germany's capacity for production is far ahead of her available raw materials, but she adds to these natural handicaps the world's resentment against her Jewish policy. Her latest move to conciliate is an attempt to regain world approval and break boycotts against her but it comes very late.

Jobless to Build Army However, even the world's continued disapproval does not check Germany's determination to build up a dominant war machine. No sacrifice is too heavy to continue industrial mobilization on a war basis. In order to meet army expenditures of $125,000,000 a month, the government compels factories to accept at least half of the payment due them in 96-month notes bearing 90-day coupons. In theory these bills arc discountable at banks, but as the state actually controls the banks and industry, this means factories must accept pay with the 90-day periods spread over almost eight years. All these war and semi-military expenditures represent needed capital that is frozen and nonproductive.

Three million persons formerly unemployed now are working on war preparations, but the fact is that here is a pool- country impoverishing herself by building a military machine.

Germany had a stil has--three great assets; first, commanding industrial position in the center of Europe: second, 'limited skilled and disciplined labor; third, the finest equipment in Europe.

The ministers were expected to take advantage of the days remaining before the Dee.

12 meeting of the League of Nations sanctions committee of 18 for full consideration of Ihc problem, amid a general impression that British would take the lead in the action. Several Considerations Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin's government confronted several considerations: 1. Would the United States join in closing its markets to Italy, should the League states institute the oil embargo? 2. Would the Italian government consider a stoppage of oil--essential for its military operations East Africa--a form of blockade, leading to more serious complications in the already tense Anglo- Italian relations? 3. What effect would oil sanctions have on the joint Anglo- French to work out a solution of the Halo-Ethiopian crisis? The meeting gave Foreign i ister Sir Samuel Hoarc and Anthony Eden, minister fo affairs, an opportunity to place before the cabinet the latest information concerning the a i cf the United States and League members, as well as the results of recent London-Paris-Rome diplomatic conversations.

Two Theories Some advocates of strict neutrality say that monetary costs should not be considered; that peace at any price is cheaper than war. Others would lay down a policy designed to keep us out of war yet deal as soft a blow as possible to the country's economy.

Three broad proposals for a permanent policy have advanced.
