Opis

Excerpt from What Is at Stake in the War One fact has already become abundantly clear since those words were uttered - that whereas the victory of the Central Powers means an absolute German hegemony over enemies and allies alike, the victory of the Entente will be the joint work Of an ever-expanding group of Powers. While Germany, if she wins, will justly regard herself as having saved austria-hungary from destruction, not one of her rivals, in the event of the triumph of the Entente, will be able to claim a monopoly of the credit. Each will have contributed to the common cause, but in each case that contribution will have been an indispensable part of the total effort. Here at least it is possible to find some consolation. The victory of William II would be a victory for the spirit which inspired Louis XIV or the first Napoleon, a reversion to the vanishing era of insolent conquest and plunder. The victory of the Allies will be a victory for Europe and the European system. What might have been a mere war for French or British or Russian Imperialism, has thus become a conżict in which all good Europeans to say nothing of Americans, are ranged against a single renegade foe.
