War Promoted Commerce from Commerce and Finance
The piece argues economic science arose with the French Revolution and the American Republic. It notes Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations published in 1776 and contrasts early predatory trade with modern commerce driven by industrialization, steam, and telegraph that linked prices globally and fostered supply and demand generalizations. It cites Britain's 1760 trade at £17.4 million versus 1915 at £1.403 billion, and explains banking, gold payments, and labor-saving tech as factors in economic growth.

Germany to Lose One Fifth of European Territory in Plea for Peace
Germany faces massive territorial losses in Europe as plebiscites would cede about five thousand square miles, with up to eight thousand five hundred more possible in East Prussia and Schleswig.
