It sets out in clear and emphatic relief the issues involved in this war for the overthrow of Prussian autocracy, militarism, world conquest and savage ruthlessness. Wo are face to face with a world crisis. Either the principles of free dem ocracy or Prussian militaristic au tocracy -will prevail. For labor there Is but one choice. A victory for Germany would mean ti pan-German empire dominating Europe and exercising a world bal ance of power, which Germany will seek to extend by force Into worlJ control. Prussian rule means supervision, checks, unfrcedom in every relation of life. Force Is the basis of their whole organization and i3 the only argu ment they will understand.

The hospital Is very large, fully equipped with scientific laboratories and faclll- ties, has an adequate number of trained nurses under the supervision of a skilled superintendent; its medi cal and surgical staffs are made up of competent men fillod with enthusi asm for their work. The hospital throughout Is clean and well cared for; there was an abundance of clean linen, a plentiful supply of well-prepared and appetizing food, and every evidence of considerate attention to the patients was manifest. I talked with a large number of the patients, none of whom knew who I was, and found them cheerful and without a ;.lr-s!e complaint as to their treat ment or comfort. Dr. Hormsby told me at the conclusion of our Inspec tion that the bane hospitals In the cantonments throughout tho country were, substantially like the one we visited this morning. It. was a most reassuring visit. I have long boon The Careful Man Knows That Poverty Is Worse Than Sick ness, So He Banks His Money lie docs his duty.
