GETifANY iii accomplishing tlic main olijoct of its war against civilization in, tlit; unity of Central Europe and making M ittel Europa an actuality lias also f;ucccc(Jt'(i in uniting the rest or the world against her and thereby largely nullified her success. The first result of (jiernian efforts was the unification of the British empire in itself a remarkable and unfor seen result. This has been followed, as German aggres sions widened to include neutrals, by the unification of the free nations of the world a league of free peoples to preserve the world from German domination. Kaiser Wilhelm in his anniversary speech declared Ihat Germany was now fighting to make Germany dom inant in the world, in other words, he admits the war is a com net ei ween autocracy ana democracy. Jl(. , M-hw,., The war la not a matter of strategic campaign, but the struggle of two world views, wrestling with one another. Either tierman principles of right, freedom, honor und morality must be upheld, or Anglo-Saxon principles with their Idolatry of mammon will be victorious. The kaiser added that the Anglo-Saxons aimed at making the peoples of t lie world work as slaves for the Anglo-Saxon ruling race. This is his customary camou flage. The Anglo-Saxons aim to make the peoples of the world freewhile the Germans strive to enslave the world as they have Prussianized Alsace-Lorraine, Poland, East Africa, as they are now Prussianizing the Baltic provinces, the Ukraine, Pumania and wherever the blight of German rule extends. - The war litis all along, more especially since America entered, been the struggle to enforce German principles of "right, freedom and morality" upon the world. The German conception of right is shown in the precept that "might is right" as demonstrated by the mutilation of the helpless anil the crucifixion of babes in Belgium,' France .ui.i uciuia, vii-iuiun jtti-iis tu irceuoni are liiusirateu ny the oppression, starvation, and enslavement practiced iii conquered territories. The German formula of morality was demonstrated in the violation of Belgium despite the in-.ii.., tue luiaMim oi iiussia in disregard ot the Brest Litovsk agreement, in the sinking of the Lusitania and un restricted submarine warfare, in Zeppelin raids upon the helpless, in poisoned wells, and in the thousand barbarities of f rightfulness. The only victory Germany has won is the complete domination of Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey, and the opportunity for exploitation of tho small states cut from Russia. The west is still deadlocked and upon the final outcome in the west will depend the stability of unification of Mittel Europa a stability already threat ened by the discontent of the submerged races and the ag gressions of the conijuerer, and tho insiduous spread of Bolshevik ideas. Against this successful unification can be placed the unification of the world against Germany. Some 22 na tions, controlling the pathways of the sea) are now acting m concert for the protection of the common interests against the Hun agreed upon a common basis consti tuting a new international order, a league of free peoples based on principles of fair dealing which backed by the resources of the world, insure the eventual defeat of Ger many. Gone forever are German dreams of supremacy. The bitterness engendered by the war will not be lived down in generations. Never again will German products be welcomed by the outside world. Gone also is Ger many's commercial aggrandizement. Chastened by defeat, Germany must suffer a long period of humiliation, as im perialistic France suffered it. Germans must discard ' Juiltur" and adopt the precepts of Christianity and the principles of international morality before being welcomod n iiiong the league of free peoples. E A.
