A STUDY OF THE EUROPEAN WAR
By J. Laurence Laughlin
Emeritus Prof, of Political Economy hi the University of Chicago.
This impres'sivc study of war finance tip to the
entrance of our country as a belligerent is the result of
the closest scrutiny of the operations of the belligerents.
Dr. Laughlin, who has had this work in preparation
since August, 1914, reveals in a manner most illuminating
both the operations and their actual bearing upon the
, progress of- the war, and so makes itt possible for the first
time to understand a phase of the situation of which the
generally otherwise informed public is wholly ignorant.
The Subject is divided into 'five main topics
Tlie Keooomlo Situation I'rccrdlng The War
War ami rriillt French Money and Credit

"N'o moio stupendous blunder has been
undo bj nn American President than
that of which Mr. Wilson wis eulltj
in his dealing with McUo Yet the
California professors fcciu to think
Hint his courso was both MKceWuI
and justifiable. You know ho sent
woul to Hucrti that ho must retlio
fioin tho MeMcm presidency, that he
must hold an election and that ho
tntist not bo a enndidato In that elec
tion, and ho announced that ho would
ictoenbo no Mexican 1'icsident whose
title to olllco was no better than that
of llueita. Tho California professors
can nco nothing wrons in this. Mr.
Moore, however, in his introduction,
ends attention to tho principles of for
i clgn policy laid down at the beginning,
under which tho American republic
acted on tho thcoiy that Governments
ato existing entitles and mado no at
tempt to decldo whether they were
lcKltlmite or illegitimate under tho
local constitutions And In his chap
ter on nonlnteient!ou and tho Momoo
PoctHnc Mr. Mooro quotes Jcffcr;on'rt
famous letter to Uomerneur Mori Is,
our iepresentatlo In J'lanco. in the
rum so of which Jelferson, paid that
we lould not deny to any nation that
right whereon our own Gov eminent Is
founded to change Its form at will and
to transact Its butlness with foreign
nations through whatever organ It
thinks proper. Then Mr. Mooro re
marks that tho test of a government's
tltlo to recognition is not its thcorcti
cal legitimacy, 'but tho fact of IN ev
istenco as tho apparent exponent o
tho popular will." Then ho tcmlnds
us that recognition Is accorded to a
Government when it has demonstiated
Its ability to exist, nnd that it cannot
bo withheld unless tho withholding
Government Intends to intervene, ns
wlthholdlnc recognition Is In Itself a
form of Intervention."
"That Is what "Wilson did In Mex

fused to recosnlzo Hucrta, but did
ever) thing in his power to oust him
from office. I seem to remember that
after Hucrta had left Mexico the
spokesmen of the Administration

Outwitting; German Spies
"Tho War Cache." by W Douclas
Newton, would bo moro entertaining In
Its thrilling story of tho matching of
wits of a group of Kngllsh patriots
against German spies If tho author did
not drop at times Into n somewhat
"emart" stI and if tlio dialtguo was
not ft bit too abundantly sprinkled with
the peculiarly stodgy Uritlsh elang,
which makes some parts of the other
wlo capital yarn irritating to tho Amer
ican reader. Wo really cannot reckon
from' the context what "stash" moans on
page 14, and It Is no moro easy to guess
It on the following page.
Tho plot li very Ingenious and com
plicated. Romo young Kngllsh officers
and a beautiful volunteer nurse get pos
session of Important German docu
ments. Cleverness and patience result
in the decoding of ono paper which tolls
of tho experience of a "war cache" under
a bombed house. To win their way to
It and turn lt to national advantage is
no light task, but Involves keenness, re
ouroefulness, dangerous adventures and
the menace of death A love theme
varies the Intrigue. German espionage
la -vanquished and Cupid Is a victor in

The Voice of Lincoln
By R. M. Wanamaker
Justice of the Supreme Court of Ohio
1 Ins boolv differs radically from all others .ibout ' '
Lincoln. It is not so much an exposition of Lincoln's
character and genius bv another as a revelation of his " i
character and Renins by himself. Judge Wanamakqr
lias selected with skill and insight those utterances,
including many of Lincoln's .letters, conversations
nnd speeches, which arc the key's to the different sides
nf his great nature and so uncover the springs of his
conduct both in general and in the crises of his life.
These utterances have their place in a narrative
text which supplies the information required to a full
understanding of their biographical and historical
significance. $2.50 ncl.
