A recant speech of German Chan aaUor MlehaaUa shows the dire otraiU , to , which , leadara of that,., government, tha last remaining clvniied adherent to the yrlnciple of tha divine right of kings, ' Input, in aa. effort to unify tha peo ple behind tha military aim of lta automatic government - r ta hla allly contention that Ger ssaay'a enemies want to destroy her and bar entered Into a aolemn com fact to that and, the chancellor is waring In the face of hla people the tear of tha iron-ehod hoot of a con- - t e,ueror, in an effort to revive their waning courage of confidence, . !, No reasonable person deslrea to 4estroy Germany aa a self-governing nation. t.

Free nations -would fee guilty of a neglect of duty should they 'not exert themselves to the utmost to free the world of this nightmare, Germans are fighting not for self- preservation but in a vain hope to '. build for their rulers a pre-eminent ' position of domination over the rest of the world. Such a dream carries with it mastery by brute force. . j Only yesterday Burgemaster Re-J lchke of Berlin used remarkably blunt language in the Berliner Zei-j tnng, ' when he spoke of Germany's j Internal situation. In answering the question whether Germany, after three years of war, could claim both 1 Internal and external progress, he! said: "At beat, tbe answer Is a halt-, lng affirmative, Those who are notj -corrupted by the chase after profits! are haunted with the fear that the country Is slipping back in the rut of; officialism. We are not really a free , people. Councils are called but tha word Is passed quietly from tha gor- ' eminent table: 'These people must be treated like children.' What is wanted i a parliament that' has( power; a government iby men who are not educated to believe that a bureaucrat necessarily knows mora than an ordinary mortal. Let us be . a free people but not free only on paper.'' , j Either this war will wipe out the present German government or the German people will have to win their liberties In a bloody revolu tion. Tha' circle of enemies with a which her armies are battling serve to unity the people under the exist ing leadership. They tear that a change of horses while crossing the stream would spell disaster..
