AUGUST 13. 1M4 Kill I-PT1N tho opportunity with, tx groat liuro- 'Such n war could hardly bo oth orwlso thnn mntorlnlly prolltnblo." Tho Now York "World", remarks: America ynulu minor least or nil. t Europe Instate on committing sul Irto. Eurono must furnish tho corivo for the funernl. And the point innt the New York "Sun" mnkoa Is thnt this country may shore In tho world'- low. nnd It may gain at, the oxponto of some competitors, but R will cer tainly llnd Itself lu n butter relative position In the- future: '"lh Ita ultimata relations, any thing rwombllng a ReneVnl Ruropean war would seem likely to guarantee that tho economic future will bolonK to tho American continents, vane clnlly to North Amertcn. The paraly b!b of European tlnnnce and commerce-, during any such uphoavnl nnd tholr subsequent prostration will leave the wny clear for all nnttonn whose energies have not been debil itated and whose resources have not boon exhausted by the wasto of war. It, was In the Civil War thnt Amort enn shipping supremacy was lost. Ah n result oi n rcuropean war u may be regained with contributing In fluences to Its recoery provided bv the facilities for commercial expan sion which tho Panama Canal and the approaching modernization of tho American banking system will sup ply. "In more ways than ono tho folly of, warfare which Europe has hum been threatening to commit and at last seems determined to perpetrate must spell opportunity for tho United States." THE WAR. Almost overnight the war elands, long gathering on the polUlcal hor izon of Europe, broke Into furious ' storm. The great nations of the 01 1 World nre at each other's throat What promises to be the greatest struggle of all time Is gaining bloody headway. , The causes of the conflict aro tangled and obscure; the truth or all of them never will be unravelled perhaps long-nourishod hatred, vanity and greed are thn o-jprlls rightfully ohargable with the whole sale bloodshed. The outcome is beyond human power to determine: Europe's map will be revised mlght'Iv. crowns will crumble, inconceivable economic loss alii result nnd ultimately the poor of all the world, and especially of the stricken battle zones, will suffer hor ribly. Rightfully or wrongfully and !t would seem Justly the sympathies of the United States are almost sit idly for the anti-German allies. We find ourselves welcoming news of British. French.
