WHY THE NECESSITY OF THE EMBARGO? l'KTItOllltAl), Oil. S. Afli-r n ennforonre of threo linnm ininnluM'B of tho govcrmnt'iu, InrliiiliiiK Premier KoreiiHky, with h ilcli'KUtlnn repre senting tho ileinoenitie connross anil with represent tit lveH of the liourKolso yesterday, n compli'lo agreement was renehed on all questions. Tho pre mier (leilareil that the Rnvornmonl purposed Immediately to form a com plete culiitict bo that, the reconstruct ed coalition goNernmeut nilylit l't nlilo to Bo to work at onco on the hasis laid down. Till' l.nlish embargo upon nil shipping to iieuirnls, .supplement in!; iind roniplel ini; Ihe American em liareo, is designed to stun the traffic between icrmanv ;iiid (lit! neutrals, wlicreliy the ficrmaii army is hcing fed liy the neutrals, who have made good the shortage, thereby incurred hy imports from America. It may seem a stern and harsh measure, hut such measures are necessary if tiormniiy is to he defeated. The ease of Holland may he cited as typical of the rela tions exist iiir, between (iermany and Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Switzerland. A Dutch commission, headed by Joost, Yon Vollenhaven, has been striving for a release of the embargo, as' have similar commissions from the other neutrals, and his efforts have been a failure, for the following reasons: Under the trade agreement existing between OVrinany and Holland, Holland is supplying (iermany with large proportions of food fats'. (Jermany has demanded and re ceived at least 12 ii per cent of all the milk exported from Tolland, 75 percent of the total butter exports, two-thirds of the cheese exports, 50 per cent of the pork and sausage, meats and livestock exports, including the Belgian relief supplies, 75 per cent of the fresh vegetables, fruit, mar nielade, poultry and eggs. Before the war, f iermany got one-third of Dutch mut ton and beef exports; in 1915 nhe took three-fourths and in If) 1(5. four-fifths. From November. 191(1 to April, 1917, L'7,551 tons of fresh meat went from Holland to (iermany, as against i:i tons sent to England altho before the war Kngland took an average of 25,000 tons annually against C000 tons sent (iermany. Holland declares she must comply with fierinan de mands in order to receive coal, and actually shipped pota toes, eggs and meat this fall when her own people were short of these products, thereby precipitating rioting and disorder. It is figured by experts that total food for 1,1200,000 German soldiers for a year was shipped from Holland in 191f! to (iermany enough to supply most of the troops tin the western front where Germans are fight ing Americans. " It is easy to see why the embargo has been placed on neutrals, to force them to feed themselves instead of (ier many. It would he suicidal to permit America to feed the neutrals, who are feeding the nation's enemies. The sooner these supplies are cut off the quicker will come the exjiaustion ol: Uermaiiv and the war's end. AN INSIGHT INTO GERMANY ROSIER OF SOLDIERS AIM M.F.&H.C0.

A B K.rAl KAT5LE book giving an insight into Ger- - many lias been published by the Mac, Milieu Com pany. It consists of letters written to Mrs. Alice Chol niondeley by her daughter Christine, who went to Berlin to study music in May, 1914, under a master of the violin. She became engaged to a German armv officer, but noon the outbreak of the war her romance ended when officials forbid his marriage to an enemy woman. She later died, friendless anil alone in a Berlin hospital. The letters describe the spirit of the German people before the wars outbreak. The author found them con stantly talking of war. filled with a lust for loot and blood and groveling before their superiors. She found even staid college professors and matronly women shrieking, cheer ing and prostrating themselves every time a royal prince ling appeared. Her violin teacher is quoted as' giving the following searching analysis of German 'character: "Wo aro still bo near, ns n nation, to the child and to tho snvaeo To tho clever child and the powerful savnso. Wo Iiko ainiplo and gross emotions anil plenty of them; obvious tastes In our food and our pleas ures: rat In en i food and fat In our women. And, like tho child, when wo mourn wo mourn to excess, and enjoy ourselves In that excess; anil, like the savam wo are afraid, and therefore hedwe ourselves nbout with observances, celebrations, cannon, kinsa. In un other country Is thero mora than one kinc In ours wo find threo and an emperor necessary. Tho savaae who fears all tbinss tines not fenr more than wc Ger mans. Wo fear other nations, wo fear other people, wo fear public opinion to an extent Incredible; we fear our own manners. He adds the only person they do not fear is God. Here is a picture of a war mob: The public is that shontln, perspiring mob out thero wnlchinK tho soldiers, anil l'rau Hoik and her boarders aro Iho public, and so aro tho soldiers themselves. The public here aro all the people who obey, nod pay, and don't know; an immense multitude, of slaves abject. Kreedy and Pitiful. 1 don't think I ever could have Imnslned a thltiR so pit iful to see as these respectable midillc-aued llerlill citizens, fathers of I families, careful livers on small Inc omes, clerks, pastors, teachers, pro- tessors, drunk and mad out there publicly on the pavement, danciiiK with Joy because thev think the crent moment tbey'vo been taught to wait for has come and they're nolns to act suddenly rich. In the following is a hint of what has to be done to bring the Germans to their senses, why air raid reprisals are necessary, why barbarism must be practiced because it is the only treatment they can understand: 11 ls 1 ' l think of the fearof Hod havlim to be kicked Into any body, but I believe with Prussians It is the other way.
