AMERICA AFTER THE WAR.
It ia now evident to the world that
without America's help given the
allies. Germany would have won the
war. American made ammunition.
American fond, American money,
and American man power have
proven to be the aid alwolutely nec­
essary to place tne iianner of victory
on the aide of democracy
We can only surmise what would
now lie the condition over there had
not America with almost unlimited
resources gone to the rescue.
Until England and Erance could
establish munition factories on a
scale of war magnitude. American
made ammunition enabled the allies
to stem the tide of the first great
(jerman drive. Without the aid of
the American navy the German sub­
marines would have practically des­
troyed the English merchant marine
and if that country had not l>ecn
starved into aurrender, ahe certainly
would have liecome very hungry.
Without American food and Ameri­
can money with which to buy it, and
the rapidly increasing American
merchant marine to carry the food
to them, the boast that the (!ermin
subs would soon bring England tn
her knees, would probably have be­
come an established fact; and finally,
without the reinforcement of the
one million of the Ix't soldiers in
the world, which America has sent
over to take their places on the firing
line, Germany would now doubtless
be in Faria and in control of the
continental side of the North ara
and the English channel.
