I ?A0? CALLS AMERICA A SECOND ROME German Leader, According to Sen. WlcCorinick, Makes Comparison. U. S. MUST LOOK FOR OTHER MARTS Senator Tolls Illinois Bankers, Europe 1^ No Longer Chief Buyer. Chicago.?The continued stability J of American business depends on increasing the purchasing power of till i country's backward markets in LatinAmerica and the Orient, according to an address written by Senator McCormick and read to a convention of II Li no is hankers. European purchases can no longer .vi.wi fho backbone of UU i ?AV\I vt?> v? American foreign commerce, and this country must look to the mar- , kets ol' the undeveloped country to the f:outh and west for future trade, said Senator McCormick. In touching on Kuropean affairs Senator McCormick repeated a conversation he had had with a (ierman financial leader, who compared the United Stales to a second Rome, whose destiny would lead it j to world dominion. (Herman's Statement "Last year at the American embassy in Herlin," Senator McCormick said, "one of the German | leaders in finance who today is ;? member of the cabinet said to me we had wit nessed the re-enact men: of a very old drama. We had seen again the wars of ancient Greece? the dissipation of wealth and the stricken civilization of Kurope. "Now we shall witness, he said "the inevitable and irresistible on coming ol a second uome, lo con <juer the old civilized states of Europe, smitten with decay engendered by rivalries, divisions and hatred- i which they cannot cure. Peace, a Koman and lasting peace, will be laid upon them by the new master of the world.' "There i.s nothing further from the thoughts of the American people,' 1 replied, 'nothing more remote from their hearts than conquest.' "It is not a question of your will ; to conquer,' he said. 'An inevitable h and irresistible destiny will carry you on to dominion whether you will or no. What matters it whether your conquest be economic or military? It will control." o : MARKETS : Fruits and Vegetables. Heavy potato receipts in New York City depressed prices $1.50 to $1.75 per bbl., the past week, North Caro] i nn f'Aiililm'c plAtimr 49 7f> fn .
