This article focuses on political and economic issues in the aftermath of the First World War. A movement is on foot in Great Britain to make prison reform an important part in reconstruction. The eleventh annual Congress of the Spanish Socialist party formulated a general party programme which demanded, among other things, the abandonment of the Moroccan enterprise and the repatriation of all Spanish troops, the reduction of the army by fifty per cent, state ownership of land and special education for the consular service. The number of German soldiers killed in the First World War is approximately 1,800,000; so that for every nine soldiers killed there were four deaths among women, children, old people and other non-combatants.
