Bankers of World No Longer Will Allow Unnecessary Wars

By HENRY CLEWS,

WAR today affects injuriously the whole world, frightens investors, drives capital into hiding or expends money into wasteful channels. The bankers of the world will NO LONGER

ALLOW UNNECESSARY WARS to be waged. They hold the purse strings in our time. Their decisions in grave emergencies are final. KINGS AND RULERS ARE ME R E FIGURE.HE ADS. The real power rests with those

who control the finances of a nation. WAR IN THE BALKANS WAS ONE CAUSE FOR THE WORLDWIDE STAGNATION OF BUSINESS TODAY. WE WILL NOT WANTONLY ENGAGE IN WAR WITH THE MEXICANS; LET NOT ONE AMERICAN SOLDIER’S LIFE BE SACRIFICED NOR ONE AMERICAN DOLLAR BE SPENT OR ONE ACRE OF MEXICAN TERRITORY BE ANNEXED. LET THE MEXICANS FIGHT IT OUT AMONG THEMSELVES.
