U. S. Becomes The Mightiest Belligerent New York. April 26. When Germany beards the United States, statistics show, she exhibits a hardihood or bravado most astounding.

The entrance of the United States into the war adds to the resources of the entente a national stock of gold as large as the combined gold reserve of France, Russia and Great Britain. When the gold in private hands is considered the preponderance of Uncle Sam is still more Impressive. The gold stock of the central powers together is only about two-fifths of ours. The United States produces more pig iron than all the other countries of the world combined. The central powers' pig iron production is equivalent to three-eighths of this country's production.

But when we come to copper, that indispensable of war, the full importance of the United States is realized. In 1916 the United States produced twice a3 much copper as the rest of the world. The central powers produce about 1-24 as much copper as the United States. The United States has more than four times as many automobiles as all of the rest of the world put together. T.
