Dispatches from the nations of
Europe contain many references to
"peace offers," "peace terms," "war
aims" and the like. From the In
structions issued by the Bolshevik)
to their representatives sent to con
clude an armistice with the Ger
mans, to the speech of Lloyd
George before the British parliament
the whole gamut of possible condi
tions precedent to the conclusion of
peace, are voiced:
It is well for Americans, that Is
the average stay-at-home civilians,
to get the fact dearly impressed up
on their understandings, that any
peace which does not destroy, for
all time, the war making abilities of
the present regime In Germany and
add thereto such other provisions as
will make future wars well nigh
impossible, would be a peace In
which America and her allies Would
tw losers. As President Wilson well
said in his recent message to con
grees:
"We shall regard the war as won
only when the German people say to
us, through properly accredited rep
resentatives, that they are ready to
agree' to a settlement ' based upon
justice and the reparation of the
wrongs their rulers have done. -
"When this intolerable thing, this
German power, Is, .indeed, deefated
and the time come that we can dis
ut peace-7-when the German peo
ple have spokesmen whose words we
can believe and when those spokes
men !are ready in the name of their
people to' accept the common judg
ment of the nations as to what shall
henceforth be the basis of law and
of covenant for the life of the' world
-we shall" be willing and glad to
pay the. full, price for peace."
This war has developed into ' a
struggle to rid the world of German
war-maniacs. Scores of nations have
been forced' into' the conflict as a
matter of self preservation. There
can be no real liberty anywhere un
til HohenzolleWlsm baa been crush
ed and the German people awakened
from their national hypnosis.
If a farmer has suffered raids up
on his aheepfold by a grey wolf; had
gone after the maruader with a
rifle and had driven him into a cave
over the mouth of which he stood
guard, would he consider the task
done If he returned home leaving
the wolf living to make further'
raids? ;
Germany has entered upon a
course of brigandage. A posse of
nations has been formed to put an
end to her depredations. The posse
has surrounded .the robber who Is
fighting most ' desperately. What
kind of a peace would It be to allow
that robber such a future as would
almost Insure a repetition of its
crimes? ,. 1
Now that the German war lord
sees that be cannot accomplish what
he set out to' do, and for which, for
50 years be had builded the great
est fighting machine of history, he Is
willing to talk of compromise peace
terms. There ean be no compromise
In a struggle which Involves life and
death to democracy and real human
liberty. ' ' j.' ' ,
