Excerpt from The Vacant Chair at the Council Table of the World Another item in the current news: Germany is planning to run her printing presses overtime in an effort to grind out seven and a half billion marks of paper money per week, the previous efforts having resulted in inability to supply the demand. The government has engaged the printing presses not alone of Berlin but other places throughout Germany, in an effort to satisfy the demand for paper money in the mad orgy of inflation. Germany's financial and industrial fabric is tottering toward its ruin. You will hear people say there is prosperity in Germany, but it is the prosperity of a drunken man sitting up all night spending in riotous living the last cent of money he can beg, borrow or steal. And the whole problem of German prosperity involves the prosperity of our own people. It would be impossible for the people of the United States to escape the results of a German debacle. When that problem is being discussed by the nations of the world, as it is being considered each day by the Reparations Commission, every consideration of pride, self-interest and duty demands that we be there. Germany has twenty million more people than she can feed out of her agricultural production. She must feed those people by importing food from abroad.
