Excerpt from Economic Statesmanship: He Great Industrial and Financial, Problems Arising From the War The War has shown even to the blindest that military power and economic strength are exceedingly closely interwoven, that Wars may be lost or Won not only on the battlefield, but also in the School, the laboratory, the mine, the mill, and the factory.
