STOCKHOLM: Conversing with spokesmen in the various government agencies here in the beautiful Swedish capital is an interesting experience. Regardless of whether one talks to the representative of the department of education or of social welfare, correction, economic planning or national defense, the reply is nearly always the same to the question of how Sweden has been able to achieve such a remarkably high standard of living. "Well, you must realize," comes the inevitable response. "Sweden has not been at war for nearly 160 years." - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
