Is England Crumbling?
ONCE more they are predicting the downfall of the British
Empire. For a decade before the World War, German
writers predicted it. John Bull, they claimed, had become
soft and decadent; preferred his dish of afternoon tea to a
dish of canister, and would be a set-up before German militar
ism and frightl'uluess.
Well John Bull had become soft from a Prussian drill ser
geant's standpoint, but not decadent. He was not prepared for
a fight on land, and in 1914, had no stomach for it, but was
prepared, as usual, on the sea.
And say what you will that control of the sea is what won
the war for the allies, without it the Central Powers would
have triumphed in three or four months, at the latest.
QJO we advise those who again see a repetition of the "Rise

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
HTSRX la an Interesting psragraph
from a dispatch from Stanford
university :
"The Stanford food research
institute estimated today that
the world's 1938 wheat yield will
be five billion bushels, perhaps
the greateat In the history of
mankind's struggle for food."
A THOUSAND years ago, that news
would hevebeen GOOD NEWS.
The people would have said: "The
specter of famine la laid. There- Is
food for all. Let ua rejoice and make
merry."
Today, people SHUDDER when they
learn that the 1938 wheat crop will
eb the greatest since the world began.
They say: "Woe be unto us. What
shall we do In the face of this
calamity?"
The world haa changed, haant It?
LVT ua read a little farther Into
this Stanford dispatch. Upon
doing so, we learn that on August 1,
1939, the unused supply of wheat in
the world wilt be about 1,070,000.000
bushels. Sines th world uses 75,
000,000 bushels of wheat each week,
the prospective surplus represent a
14-week supply that will have to be
carried' over Into the 1939 harvest.
ORDINARILY an eight-week suply of
wheat Is enough to carry the world
Into a new harvest.
We've gained six weeks on our
selves, you see.
SOMEWAY,
that has
considering everything
happened since the
world began, It's hard to believe that i
an added leeway of six weeks between
exhaustion of the old year's Supply
of wheat and the harvesting of the
new year's crop can be a calamity.
Maybe we're Just thinking, wrong
THE world has done wrong think
ing before, you know, and aa i
result has been unnecessarily fright
ened.
There wa a gloomy economist who
taught, not so long ago. that popu
lation tend to Increase faster than
the capacity of the earth's soil to
produce food. It was therefore, he
said, only a question of time until
wa muat all DIE OF STARVATION
or, at least, those least able to pro
vide for themselves must die.

If I was WRONG,
tlon, the problem

produce.
If Malthua wa wrong In hla belief
that population tend to Increase
faster than Its means of subsistence,
maybe those who now tell, us that
the modern world tends to produce
mora than it can consume are also
wrong. Mavbe It will all work out.
