REFERRING i The AntiICerman

REFERRING to the Anti-G German
sources OF news during the war
Prof. Munsterberg Of Harvard a prom
inent German says: THE war ia an
Inevitable struggle between Slayonic
and Teutonic cultures, and the kaiser
is justified to strike first, and strik
ing without regard to the neutrality
rights of Belgium and Luxembourg.
He ees it as simply a case Of na-
ton with its back to the wall, fight
ing for self preservation against a
combination of powerful enemies de-
termined on crushing it. In such a
situation any necessary measures he
holds to be justified" It is well to
bear these ASPECTS Of the conti-
mental struggle in mind. particularly
In the absence Of fun information
regarding the extent and clrcumstan-
ces of the efforts for peace made
by the various powers, before war n
nally broke.
