102 THE SHADOW OF THE WORLD’S FUTURE Science and technology have shown themselves capable of rendering splendid service, but they need to be the handmaidens of men good enough to be entrusted with them. They can be Furies and may hd, when they are the handmaidens of a spirit of evil. Another and similar aspect of international spirit of evil relationships calls for mention. When a people, having become subject to a control which has actually destroyed enormous numbers of them, a control which also has plunged them into economic ruin, endeavours by all sorts of subterfuges to spread its political creeds among other peoples, it makes a national goodwill to it fatuous, hinders economic relationships with it, and renders mutual migrations impossible. From this we see that political perfidy is a great hindrance to the population development of the world.
