Regardless of what diplomatic measures Germany may e tak.
ingk or may lake, tha war is bjeing rapidly brought to a close by
the mighty strokes of the forcesuruier Marshal Foch on the western
front; by the men under General Allenby, now headed for Con
stantinople; by the armicH in Macedonia and Mesopotamia, and bx
the cleaning up proecss in Russia; to say nothing ot the ojerations
in Serbia, that will soon be extended to Rumania, j;
V Hut Henry Clews says in his current weekly financial letter:
"Regardless of the date of the full acknowledgment of defeat by
the enemy, there Ml'ST STILL REMAIN MONTHS OF DISCUS
SION, before the. many problems which have become so interwoven
by the titanic defvelopnienls of the last -few years can be adjusted
in a way to axsufcjasttng settlement." . -
And he says further along in bis letter: "There must be no
letting down of effort until the enemy acknowledges defeat until
our work has befh completed in every detail. A large oversub
scription of the S6,000,(KW,000 loan will be appraised at -its -full
value in Berlin, and by inevitably shortening the war will Ik cal
culated to SAVK THOUSANDS OF LIVES of American boys 'over
there. " -.. - r . ' : '; ': ' . ' .
' Jlr. Clews goes on to discuss .the lalor problem, 5 which will be
the most difficult of all problems after the war is over for hiirh
wages have come, and in order to maintain the millions of tons of
our new merchant marine we will have to have a ' vastly increased
foreign trade; and we must manufacture and pnxluee in eoiupetition
with the vastly cheaper j labor of Europe and the Orient.
Rut there will be a world to rebuild and rejuvenate, and the
intricate problems I will be: worked out.
. : No one can look into the; future.
v 'No one can Say what a day will bring forth.
i Rut there may be American soldiers on duty in Europe, and
in Russia, for a long time; yet. And all our soldiers and our half
million mn in our Navy will remain at their posts, no doubt, for a
. little time, even after the guns shall have leen silenced on the
battle lines; and a .considerable proportion of our soldier boys may
have to. wait for months, while he statesmen of the tvorld readjust
the whole scheme of international affairs ,
Some of pur boys will come very soon after peace negotia
tions start; but the time when all will be home again will likely
