I claim he is broadcasting that the city is wide open without tangible substantiation of his charge." Brennan puffed at his inevitable cigarette as they headed for Gibson's office. "She said she had no idea where he is and what he is doing, did she?" said Brennan. "How come you thought of asking her about it?"

This is too well known to require detailed substantiation with figures. But it may be illustrated by the figures for coal, which has been the key to the industrial growth of Central Europe hardly less than of England; the output of German coal grew from 30,000,000 tons in 1871 to 70,000,000 tons in 1890, 110,000,000 tons in 1900, and 190,000,000 tons in 1913.
