Nobody now is "sitting on the
world," in the expressive speech of
the doughboy. The world is sitting
on us on all of us who sense the gi
gantic powder mine that Europe typ
ifies and apprehend the feeling of
unrest and dissatisfaction abroad in
this "land of the free." What's go
ing to happen, anyway? We will ul
timately return ' to saner mood in
this country, perhaps, if undisturbed
by extraneous influences. But what
if the powder mine across the pond
explodes? Only he who is so indif
ferent or callous as to be able to say
as they once said on the Parisian
boulevards, "After us the deluge,"
may view the prospect unmoved.
Those who arc fond of saying that
we are independent of Europe may
find themselves in the way of hurt
ling missiles if the Old World blows
up. Uncle Sam cannot play safe by
the policy of isolation virtually set
forth by the United States senate.
