It is also stated that the American preliminary peace commission will be composed of four Republicans and four Dem ocrats, which we must say is an act of wisdom. The terms of the peace are too vital to our nation and to all nations not to have all phases analyzed and dis cussed by all main schools of political thought. How ever dark or bright the prospects of the war are, now we know that the Allies will win, and it is high time to prepare to avert what might prove a castastrophe with any sudden end of the struggle. A world taut for four years with the most intense strain of all time on all its resources, might fall to the deepest depths of history, unless we lay plans to ab sorb the shock. We believe that the new commission can not work too fast in preparation of a cushion to prevent still further defeat of our forces of civiliza tion. This will require the best wisdom of the best leaders, the full elimination of politics, the greatest devotion to freedom for all peoples, the soundest views of international economics, and a God fearing purpose for the welfare of humanity. There will be plenty to do when the delegations of the four nations get together. We hope that the lead ers of the Big Four will select the smartest, the most far seeing, the best informed, the wisest and the most patriotic men they have for the task. ident and nephew of Mrs. W.
