Guild THE WORLD'S DISTRESS. Britain to-day is staggering under a debt of almost $40,000,000,000 (£7,800,000,000); she faces an ad- verse trade balance of $4,000,000,- 000 (£800,000,000); her internation al commerce 1s in grave danger; her consumption - is rapidly increasing while her production is on the wane; her people are spending more and earning less. Nor is this position of financial gravity cBifned to Britain alone. It is the common lot of prac- tically every mation in Europe. .The only remedy--and it is bound to be a slow one--lies in harder work, in thrift and economy, public 'and pri vate, in decreased consumption and increased production.
