LfflELISSHfiS SUSS
: WILL SQON CLOSE WAR
COPENHAGEN, July 20. With the
statement that Germany's wish is to
conclude peace as combatants who
have successfully accomplished their
purpose, yet admitting the severity of
' the food situation, Dr. GeoVg Michael-
Is, the new imperial chancellor of Ger
many, yesterday made his first ad
dress before the reichstag.
", Dr. Michaells declared adherence to
the submarine campaign as a means
of hastening the end of the war, and
looked lightly upon the entry of the
United States into the war, asserting
the German fleet and the submarines
would master that situation.
Meager reports of Dr. Michaells' ad
dress, received yesterday, were sup
plemented today with more complete
- versions.
"Although," said Chancellor Mich
aells to the reichstag yesterday, "Eng
gllsh statesemen knew, as shown by
their bluebook, that Russian mobillia
tion must lead to war with Germany,
they addressed not a word of warn
ing to Russia against military meas
ures, while my predecessor, in Instruc
tions July 29, 1914, to the ambassador
at Vienna, directed him to say that we
would willingly fulfill our duty as an
ally, but must refuse to permit our
selves to be Involved In a world war
through Austria-Hungary disregarding
our counsels. The man who wishes to
kindle a world war does not write like
this, but a man who is laboring and
has labored for peace to the utmost
"The concentration of the Russian
army compelled Germany to seize the
sword. i
We look without serious concern
upon the optimistic sentiment in the
'entente countries caused by Amer
ica's intervention. It is easy to reckon
how much tonnage is necessary to
transport an army from America to
Europe, how much tonnage is required
to feed such an army. France and
England are scarcely able to feed and
supply their own armies without in
fluencing the economic situation still
further. After our previous success
we shall be able to master this situa
tion also through our fleet, particular
ly the submarines. That is our firm
conviction and assurance. We and our
allies, therefore, can look forward to
any further development of military
events with calm security.
"The burning Question in our hearts,
however, is how much longer the war
Is to last With this, I come to a mat
ter which stands in the center of all
our interest and all our proceedings
today. Germany did not desire the
war in order to make violent con
quests, and therefore will not contin
ue the war a day longer merely for the
sake of such conquests if it could ob
tain an honorable peace.
"The Germans," he said, "wish to
conclude peace as combatants who
have successfully accomplished their
purpose and proved themselves invin
cible. A condition of peace was the
inviolability of Germany's territory.
No parley was possible with the ene
my demanding the cession of German
soil.
"We must by means of understand
ing and in a spirit of give and take
guarantee conditions of the existence
of German empire upon the continent
and overseas,' continued the chancel
lor.
Dr. Michaells' words on this point
required a careful reading and are
- capable of various interpretations
other than the surface one. His Ger
man indicates a willingness to make
peace only as victors. In bis use of
the words "understanding" and "give
and take" (the German words ver
staendlgung and ausgleich), he re
vives the Bethmannlc ideas of read
justment of the frontiers and colonial
possessions in bargaining rather than
the restoration of the status quo.
Peace, he said, must offer the founda
tion of a lasting reconciliation of na
tions. Loud cheers greeted this statement

Backache Is often from weak kidneys.
In such a case a kidney medicine is

Doan's Kidney Pills are for weak

For backache and urinary ills.
Oregon City people recommend the
remedy.
J. F. Montgomery, W. Oregon City,

across my kidneys. I used one box of
Doan's Kidney Pills, which I bought
at Huntley Bros. Co.'b Drug Store, and
the pains soon left me. The kidney
and bladder troubles were relieved
too. (Statement given April 4, 1913.)
On April 17, 1916, Mr. Montgomery
said: "I am still strong for Doan's Kid

Old oil will damage the gas engine
far more than will bard work, accord
ing to W. H. Sanders, instructor in
motors tn the Kansas State Agricul
tural college. Oil that has become sur
charged with the fine steel particles
from the bearings should be drained
off, and fresh oil should be placed In
the oiling system at regular Intervals.
Oil becomes black and gritty In time,
and before this stage is reached It
should be replaced by fresh oIL The
dirty oil ma; be filtered and used
again, but the best method is to use
fresh oil New oil costs something, but
Is cheaper than new beatings.
In cleaning an engine before replac
ing the supply of oil It should be run
until thoroughly warm. All the old oil
should then be drained from the crank
case. The same amount of clean kero
sene should be placed In the oil reser
voir and the engine run carefully for a
short time until all of the crank shaft
bearings are thoroughly cleaned.
