Abstract

II. The New Year Outlook in England

Horwill, Herbert W. | January 31, 1920 issue

add to cart   close window

In spite of New Year's Eve revelries at the London hotels, 1920 has opened upon a sadly disillusioned people. Not only are the hopes of a year ago unfulfilled, but day by day the prospect of their ultimate fulfillment becomes less and less credible. Those who think internationally are depressed by the discovery that scarcely anyone seems to have learnt the lessons of the war. The League of Nations, for which the people have travailed in such anguish, is an abortion. The last state of suffering Europe is worse than the first. On the other side, the bitter-enders are disappointed of their coveted revenge.
