August 10, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about political conditions of various countries as published in this issue of the periodical. The press in the United States is concerned with the military advance and seems to consider its duty done when it has demanded war until the capture of Berlin. Few editors appear to be thinking about the peace, its terms and what is to follow. An enlightened public sentiment on foreign questions is one of the greatest needs of the United States today. Great Britain is fully entitled to congratulate itself on its share in the transportation of the U.S. troops to France. Press dispatches report a serious labor situation in Switzerland, where the labor organizations and the Federal Government appear to be at loggerheads.
