leaders of Germany speaking: "Per-j Messrs. Jas. Shoeley and Ten Danton
petual peace is a dream, and it is not of Corvallis spent the week end with
even a beautiful dream; war forms
part of the eternal order Instituted
by God.". "A . long peace not oiily
leads to enervation, but allows of the
existence of a multitude of pitltal,
... , ,, . : ,
trembling, miserable creatures y .
who cling fast to life with loud cries
about their 'right' to exist, block the
way for real strength, make the air
fetid, and altogether defile the blood
of the nation." "The worst of hypoc
risies Is the participation by Ger
many in The Hague Conference." "We
must not look for permanent peace as
a result of this war. Heaven defend
Germany from that." And Treltschke,
the historian-tutor to the military
class of Germany, taught over and
over again that war was the only
means of achieving world leadership!
that war "Is to be conceived as ai
ordinance set by God"; that "war Is
just and moral, and that the idea ol
eternal peace is both unjust and;' im
moral and impossible."
These theories, put in practice, have
made of Germany the Cain of civiliza
tion "his hand against every man's
hand." In self-defense- and in mere
self-respect, America was forced to
strike back. We could not sit' still
when we realized that it was our duty
"to be and to remain the out spoken
moral opponents tf the present Ger
man policy, and of the German State,
so long as it holds this present pol
icy, and carries on Its present war.
. . . Germany, as ' at present' 'dis
posed, is the willful and deliberate
enemy of the human race." (Josiab
Royce.)
But if there be any who have not -
this larger vision of the issues of the
war who are not movea to staice an
on the abstract justice of our cause"
then let them ask themselves what
fXltrrcspect as a. nation demands of
America, and of true Americans, under
the .treatonenlt we received from Ger
many.
When tne .European war came in
1914, and while we were still neutral,
what inault was not heaped upon' our
self resuott The Austrian Amibassa
dor, Diuiiiba. plotted to organize strikes
in our munitions i'ayteTies, and to buy
up agitators to incite workmen to dis
content. Gentian eipieis, now convicted
and in ia.il, have admitted that they
worked under the direction of lugn
German officials to commit acta in
violation of our neutrality. Some of
ibeso same officials have admitted tn
expenditure of millions of dollars in
lillegal oiperations conducted "in di
rect defiance of our law, and in inso
lent disregard of .international di.plo
,'matiia .orninteey.' The catalogue of
Geuman crime i'n America, and of
German aifents amongst us, while we
were still neutral, if published in full,
would be astounding almost to dis
belief. The German a?ts have startled us at
!ast to the knowledge that the nation1'
which .permits them without rertit
ment is no nation in that essential
quality of patuotism sell respect.
Wittbcait that quality, we are but a
mass of disorganized peoples, having
no influence in world aftairs, and ul
timately at the mercy of that state
which best knows how to carry on
shameless intrigue amongst us. Ger
manv is that state. We arc fighting
in tho hope of avine the world from
her irrrmc-ral ideals; but we are also I
fighting to restore our sclr respect.

These awful stories have been constant
ly before us in the news dispatches
ever since the war began. A short time
ago there was published m the Tele
gram an account of the investigation
of the Lord Bryce commission of their
friuhitful work in Delirium. Lord Bryce
is a diplomat of high standing who at
one time represented ni government
at Washington and the findings of his
tribunal should be accepted as being
of -a truthful character. I read many
of the statements which were sworn to
before this eourt and fhry are of the
same nature as those being reported by
tho newspapers every day almost. I
would recommend that those who are
interested in this subject (and all
should be) should read in the April
numr.er or tne xciiiiri.ur u i
written iby a U. S. army officer of some
things he knows albout this subject.
Public school teachers should, in my
estimation, be very .careful when dis-
cussinc eiich matters bctore their pu
pils that they make their hearers un
derstand what tncy mean wnen mrjr
say, "we sliould not glnndor the Ger
mans." Different individuals have dif
ferent ways of handling this difficult
subject. Somo aro so unjust ae to be-
mean everything uorman sraipiy
cause many of the people of that na
tionality have -done the wrong. Remem

ery tub stands on it own bottom," is
not a scripture statement as the old

that it is a truth of Divine revelation
just tho same.
In dealing with tho peoplo of the
countries with which we aro at war we
should let our conduct! be characteriz

follow is to just put ourselves over in

Trial Court Asserts
Buenz Not Honest
New York, April 6. The case of
Karl Bucnz, former head of the Hamburg-American
line, was continued to
day in federal district court here until
Monday after evidence of his personal
physician had been heard.
"It not only would be imprudent to
commit this man to prison," the court
commented, "but it would be impru
dent not to ecminit him.'
"The career of this defendant," the
judge stated, "has been such as to
create no confidence in his honesty."
The court atao said that Buons! has

Germans Hold Financial
Club Over Heir Allies
By Frtd S. Ferguson
(United Press staff correspondent)
With the American Army in France
April 5. Tho Amtirtican intelligence
servico has learned that Germany has
established a systam of financing im
new territory, enabling her to hold a
financial club over Austria, Bulgaria
and Turkey.
By cancellation of all obligations
she could bankrupt: these Countries ia
the event they made a separata peace.
Since the war started Germany has
been drawing heavily on Austria, Bul
garia and Turkey for auppliee. Bul
garia, specially, has grown wealthy
out of the war in German obligations.
G;ermaii paper, given? in Toturn for
vast amounts of foodstuffs, petroleum
and raw materials, purchased front
Bulgaria, who previously had obtained
it by plundering Serbia and Rumania,
would be Worthless if Germany chose
to declare a moratorium or refused to
live up to her obligations.
Inability of Germany's allies to
"cash in" on this Gorman credit
would leave .them bankrupt, officials'
declare. Fear that Germany might re
pudiate her obligations is instrumental
lin keeping her allies in line with Ber.
in8 policies, It is believed.
THE BUENA VISTA ROAD.
Our special Buena Vista correspond
ent state "The bad road. across the
river is being improved. Eleven hund
red dollars has been appropriated by
citizens here with which the road eau
be made good."
If Marion county is short of funds
the people of Buena Vista section are
not, and so they dig down in their pock
ets and build a few miles for Marion
county. That is a good way to teach
Marion county business methods and we
trust Salem 's county officials will wake
up in time to say amen. Independence
