MORE LANDS ARE VITAL TO
LIFE OF GERMANY
Deputy Berry of Paris says His Coun-
try Unafraid and Can Com
mand Peace.

PaTis.-George Berry. deputy for
Paris and author Of German social
studies declares that France need
not fear Germany any longer. He
says:
Il have just come from Germany,
where | find all political parties de-
claring it is hopeless and impossible
for Germany to survive without con-
quest or without new colonies on
this question all public men in the
Fatherland are as one. Germany
must have an outlet beyond the pres
ent frontiers for her ever increasing
population.
II stated very clearly that l did not
wish to see any further German eX-
tensions at the expense of that part
of the Congo which France still holds.
From the invectives which the press
hurled at me. l concluded the Ger
man government still nourishes the
secret hope of getting more Congo
but the great bulk of the German
people do not seek new trouble with
France. There are even some who
would be willing to submit our dit-
ltItllCCS dbOul -NiSpNN hpA ati''N ~
court of arbitration.
There are few in Germany today
who approve the politics which die
tated the sending of warship to
Agadir in July, 1911. That ship an
gered every man in France and oul
anger has awakened our hitherto
sleeping patriotism.
THE diminishing war party counts
upon the impulsive character of the
emperor to set the match to his pow
der, but his majesty is surrounded by
trio of prudent men who have great
influence over him. Another reason
which will stop German aggrandize'
ment at the expense of France is the
admirable organization of our army
French patriotism is no longer dor
mant and it guarantees our securit!
and national honor.
I'VE now look proudly to the fu
ture. We carry a high head withou
feebleness and without compromise
assured of peace which no one dare:
trouble. / repeat that expansion /:
! essential for the existence of Ger
many but that expansion will be a
the expense of some other nation be
side France"
on the other hand, Jean. Jaures
leader of the socialists, says:
why does not England propose al
international agreement leaving food
stuffs and raw material for labor out
side the right of capture in time o
war?"

lem. Kate tells her sweetheart Dan
Carlyle BlackwelD, that she will
not see him until he overcomes his
desire for drink The young man,
| feeling that the world is against him,
cast his lot with Wheeler, liquor
| trader Wheeler shows Dan the
| manner in which he mixes alcohol,
tobacco and water and disposes of
the compound to the Indians. This
story illustrates why the U. S. gov
ernment prohibits the sale of liquor
to the Indians.
2. The Convalescent. Lubn. Har-
ry Devereaux, a young millionaire,
expecting to die of consumption, pro-
poses normal marriage with Alice

against Mr.. Pickwick for trifling with
her affections. 1t tells a clear con-
nected story delicious in its humor
and a great many celebrated charac-
ters.
4. His Windmill. Pathe. This
story is impressive because of its
simplicity. A tramp out of revenge
for having been thrasned by a miller
for destroying a toy windmill of the
miller's son, at night sets fire to the
milleT's property and escapes. The
fire from the small flame quickly
spreads until the entire country
around is laid desolate

man antitrust law, came before the
United States court on its second trial.
When the case was decided in 1910,
with an award of $223,0OO for the
plaintiffs, it had been before the jury
several weeks. A decision of the
United States supreme court brings
the suit up for retrial. Under this
decision it is understood that the con-
spiracy alleged must be fastened on
each defendant and that membership
in the United Hatters of North Am

for conspiracy on the defendants.
