THE HOHENZOLLERNS MUST GO
P KKSIDFXT WJLNOX li;is made it fairly dear that
America dues not consider pence possible in a world
in which the Uohenzollern dynasty is allowed to rule. And
the United Slates, as one of the most powerful of the
allies, should see to it that this battle cry is adopted by all
the nations now at war with (lermaiiy. Only by bringing'
this fact home to the itmsst-s of the German people can
democracy In; given its chance in Germany itself.
The iiohenzollcrns and their dvnastie ambitions have
been the curse not only of the docile German people, but of I
the whole world as well. The history of how the lLohen-
zollerns raised themselves from a minor baronial family to
an imperial dynasty claiming divine right, arid of how
Prussia was made the menace that she is, constitutes one
long story of war and theft and rapine.
Jt began back in the eighteenth century, when Wil
li elm's much-belauded ancestor, Frederick the Great, as
sisted in the partition of the independent kingdom of Pol
and, taking a liberal slice for himself. And every Prussian
war since that time has netted the Hohenzollerns some
thing of power or pelf.
What could the civilized nations expect of Germany
in relalions with little Belgium, when they remembered
what Prussia had done to little Denmark back in the 'liOs?'
The dynasty that ruthlessly robbed Denmark of her
choicest provinces of Kchleswig-TIolstcin and thus made
possible the building of the Kiel canal, largely for German
naval pui-poscs, is the same one that treated a Belgian
treaty as a mere scrap of paper.
The counts in the indictment against the Hohenzol
lerns are many; against Wilhelm .11 they are innumer
able. There can be laid at his door the sin of causing a
whole world to be drenched in blood and tears. To him
blinded men owe their sightless eyes, mangled men their
shattered limbs, widows and orphans their mourning, lie
has caused all civilization to pause in its forward swing,
and reel backwards into the barbarism of war and its
attendant horrors.
lie has forever stained his name with the violation of
Belgium, with the destruction of its quiet, old, dreamy
cities, with Hie exile and deportation of its people. The
starving' Belgians, the hungering Polish Ghristians and
.Jews, the children of Armenians massacred to make a Mo
hammedan holiday all curse his name. There is hardly
a spot in the-world where his existence has not been felt,
and, since 1014, for evil. No other creature in the world's
history has been responsible for so much woe, so much
destruction of life and property, of happiness and well
being. Tli is fantast with brain warped by lust for power, this
neurotic, this blasphemer with his wicked pratings about
the favor of the God of Divine Love for his accursed fam
ily, must go, he and all his brood.
Only when they have been toppled from the high places
of power and command, only when the German people are
allowed to rule themselves, only when dynastic" preten
sions and ambitions are cast into the garbage barrel of
things that were, will it be possible to have anything like
peace in this world. Only then can the democratic nations
of the world, of which the United States is most represen
tative, seriously begin to talk of universal disarmament,
so that the lime and the talents and the money now de
voted to the wicked arts of war may be used for the uplift
of man and the greater glory of God.

President Wilson s Appeal
Here arc the hitfh lights in I'rcsidcnt AVilson's
apjcal to the foiintry for cadi man and wthiian to
do his bit:
"We must supply abundant food for ourselves
' . . and for a lare part of the nations with
which we have now made common cause.
"We must supply ships by the hundreds.
"The industrial forces of the country men and
women alike, will be a great service army engaged in
the service of the nation and world, the efficient
friends of and saviors of free men everywhere.
"The importance of an adequate food supply
especially for Ihe present year is superlative.
"Upon the fanners of this country, in large meas
ure, rest's the fate of the war and the fate of the
nations.
"I call upon young men and old alike to turn in
hosts to the farms.
"I appeal to farmers of. the, south to plant abund
ant foodstuffs as well as cotton.
"To the middleman of every sort: The eyes of the
country will be especially upon you. The country
expects you as well as all others to forego unusual
profits.
"This is the time for America to correct her un
pardonable fault of wastefulness and extravagance.
"These things we must do and do well, besides
fighting, the things without which mere fighting
would be fruitless."

PACKERS OFFER
' WASHINGTON-, April 17. Legis
lation to cm; ov.cr l lie council of na
tional defen-e tc supervise the distri
bution of food and if necessary fix
maximum and minimum prices, was
being framed today as one of the re
sults of yestorduy's conference be
tween the great Chicago meat puck
ers and Secretary Houston of the
department of agriculture.
Headed by J. Ogden Armour, a
delegation of the foremost packers,
including Edwin Morris, E. A. Cud
ahy, Thos. E. Wilson, and L. P.
Swift, assured Secretary Houston of
their utmost cooperation and volun
tarily proposed that the government
take steps to fix prices through the
council of national defense.
The licensing of food distributing
agencies so tho government may
trace any movemtnts of middlemen or
others to monopolize supply or force
raises in price is one of the features
of the plan tha packers proposed.
As their own "bit" In defending
the nation, the pac.kers offered a plan
to distribute their products at a min
imum of profit to themselves and
one of them estimated the saving to
the public would approximate at least
S 100,000,000 a year.
Secretary Houston favors the
plan and will' have a part in drafting
legislation to put It into effect. The
power to be invested in the council
of national defense, it is said, would
bo used only when the national in
terest required It. Whenever there
was evidence of prleo fixing or mo
nopoly of supply the council would
fix maximum and minimum prices to
check it.
WASHINGTON-, April 17. Presi

meeting today discussed legislation
