GERMANY is not facing America and lier allies single handed and alone. She also has allies and Friends. Austria, Dulgaria and Turkey all in their way are scr vieeahle; the spv system is valuable. 3 5j.it none of these, iiowerful and dangerous as they are, can lie named as the kaiser's most potent allies. ' " AVe can tight Austrian, Bulgarian and Turkish sol diers. We can catch spies and hang them. But it almost seems as if wo must wait years before we can even up scores with the kaiser's best friends. For they are safe within our American holy of holies. They have seats in the United States congress. Tliey are free to do their dirty work. They can fight the Ameri can people with impunity. They can block American war plans. They can cunningly plan to starve the American stomach and paralyze: t,he American military arm. And (hoy can do this under the guise and color of all kind's of specious pleas.

All these things are nicrely the words of masked hypocrites and traitors. Every senator and congressman who blocks real food conservation aids the food thieves at home and the Ger man enemy abroad. The times call for real Americans. The crisis calls for real patriots. Under the cloture rule the senate recently adopted, after another flagrant exhibition of pro-(icrman-ism, the power exists to cut off time-killing and (lerman serving debate. Tlio. question is whether there are in the presumably American senate enough American senators to force thru American laws designated to aid the American people and to hell) the American army and navv win, a victory for the American flag. . . : GIVE TYPHOID FLY NO QUARTER U A th&r( M A n vV . 1. ;..S NEW LIS!
