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.

Those
Hours
The Nation is Calling for Every
Spare Hour of Woman's Day.
To waste time in household drudgery is to deprive the country of the help that
every woman owes it in these days of strife.
Each day work is being done in your homo which electricity might do better,
more economically and in less time.
Save those hours spent in useless drudgery by having electrical appliances for
cooking, washing, ironing, sewing, cleaning.
Lend your strength to the nation where you arc most needed, in the fields, in
the gardens or with the lied Cross.
Think about this suggestion of ours and let us show you at what small cost you
can have these electrical devices in your home.
