After the collapse of the League of nations the people of the United States debated how they could best serve their nation and the w'orld. The United States decided not to lend its man and money power abroad except in the cause of justice. It could not hope to tight all of Britains battles, to uphold arbitrary boundaries in Europe or to accept mandates to rule distant and ... strange peoples. "Nevertheless it saw before it a wonderful opportunity. It had loaneu billions of dollars to its allies and it could demand many things on that account. It finally decided to remit all the loans and to lend many billions more if the world would accept its programme of justice. Great Britain was to return German colonies and ships, France was to ' cut in half its demands on Ger many and restore the Rhine barrier. Italy was to give up its extreme imperialistic demands and the Bolshevists were to abandon their project of conquering the world. This altruistic plan was ruined b the .'stubborness of the Bolshevists on the one hand and of the British imperialists on the other. Both sought the control of the world. REAT BRITAIN continued to VJT be the greatest actual fighting power because she had the greatest navy. The Bolshevik! could not force their way to the Atlantic littoral.

Irish leaders wreie gathered together at a conference in London and asked if they would submit or fight. They replies that as they had had little experience in submitting and much in fighting they preferred to fight. The English were provided wltA all the most scientific weapons or y warfare, whereas the natives armed. The English killeu hundreds of thousands of men ann deported most of those who survived As they had done in the days of Cromwell, who had tried to exterminate the Irish race, they colonized Ireland and the Irish women married Englishmen. But their progeny became more Irish than the Irish had been. Meantime England continued to fight insurgents all over the world and by the year 1950 there were, comparatively speaking, only a handful of Englishmen left in England.
