French Golfers: 'thnt tie POSSESSION Of
FBehourt ~ France is dangerous to Ger
msny; that France is recognizing rap
idly and will soon be able to furnish :
formidable army for alliance With, other
nations; and Germany is no richer than
before the war. Her finances and special
army organization cannot long support
the expenses Of the present armament.
and she cannot disarm in the, face OF
France. The military party in Germany
are convinced that there never was a
moment more propitious than the pres
ent to secure for their country long
era Of prosperity and peace. War ought
to be promptly undertaken. It is neces,
sary to march on Paris and take up d
position where new peace treaty can
be signed, which takes Belfourt from n,
France and limits her active army and
exacts ten milliards to be paid in twen-
ty years. ...-s.,7
Paris could be attacked if France re-
fused to sign. 'H- =,
All the powers have confined them-i
selves to timid frie endly representations
in regard to the Belgian notes which
only show that to finish with France is
now duty to Germany and humanity !.
Europe will never be tranquil while the
blunder of the treaty which leaves
France ready to revive tho struggle is
unrectifei. What may be promptly
executed at an Insignificant sacrifice
would two years hence cost rivers Of
blood. Russia must be convinced of
this necessity. re-, ,
The Times correspondent add- that it
would be untrue to say that these argu-
ments are accepted IN Germany outside
of particular party. 1t would be
equally untrue that these MANAGES are
destined to be realized. The diplo matte
world even in Germany declare she can
not fight against an enemy who declares
for peace. Honest Germans scout the
supposition that the Emperor has scru-
Piles; but the party of immediate action
urge it as duty to sink all considera-
tions in order to save the country. They
insist that France must be made to ac-
cept reassuIing treaty if she will not
fight. ~ ~ Dr. % ''A7't' ''
