Abstract

England's Economic Outlook
Withers, Hartley | March 8, 1917 issue

add to cart   close window

This article focuses on the economic expectations after the World War I. England is able to sustain this devastating war and provide a large part of her population with a better share of the world's goods because she is working harder than she ever worked before, and at the same time concentrating her energy more than ever before on the things that matter-first the war, then the necessaries and solidities that help to improve the standard of life. Plenty of labor and energy is still being wasted on frivolities and luxuries and vulgarities, but very much less than was so wasted before the war.
