A GLOOMY PROSPECT POB GERMANY. In its appeal to Germans to “keep a stiff upper lip,” the semi-official “Cologne Gazette” (in a loading article on August 28) shrieked that if the Huns lose the war “every#' single one of us, whatever our rank or profession, should have to dig and slave for foreign lands.” A few days before this lugubrious vision of Germany in defeat of Herr Hoff, a well-known Radical parliamentarian wrote in the “Berliner Tageblatt” what it will mean to the Huns if they are compelled to make amends for their war crimes in money. He said: “Let us cast our minds back to the days before the war. In 1913 we exported to foreign countries manufactured products to a valuo of £319,800,000 and imported £73,900,000 worth. That is to say we sold nearly £250,000,000 more than we bought. We imported about £175,000,000) more of raw materials than we exported. “ISTow, supposing we have to pay our enemies an indemnity of £5,000,000,000. That would moan our having to find something like £325,000,000 for interest and amortisation charges. It would moan that we should have to sell our manufactured goods without getting anything at all for them, while we could not pay for our required £250,000,001 of raw materials at all. They simply would not be sent into the country. What would be the result? Within a year at the outside the whole German economic machine would come to a standstill. And where there is nothing, there even the rights of the Kaiser cease to exist!”
