GERMANS ANTICIPATING
EARLY END OF CONFLICT
lBy- Associated Pressl

LElPZiG-In anticipation Of the
end of the war, thirteen Of the most
important branches Of labor in Leip-
zig have petitioned the city fathers to
install as a separate and distinct
branch of the municipal employment
bureau, department specially for re.
turning soldiers.
Store employees estimated that be.
tween 5000 and 100000 Of their
number will come back when peace
is declared. The number of clerks Ia
expected to be correspondingIy large,
and the number Of technical workers
is also very great. The figures refer
to entire Germany.
The Leipzigers believe that the work
of finding places for Leipzig's share
Of the returning throng must be be.
gun now If there is not to be confusion
and suffering for many seeking work.
The mercantile, technical and Office
employers Of the city are pressing the
matter especially, in the belle. that
their branches of labor are going to
be particularly hard pressed In their
petition, however, they do not haz-
ard guess as to when the return
will begin.

as we gather 1t from the speech pit
the chancellor and public utteran@s
in Germany now? Germany to CHI
troll the destiny of all other nation;
to be the shield of peace and frle-
dom of big and small nations thde
are the chancellor's words: an inn
peace and freedom under a Pris-
sian shield and under Germany n-
|premacy Germany supreme. Germany
along would be free; free to cr1h
when it pleased her; free to refee
all mediation; free to go to war wlfn
it suited her; free, when she did 30
to war, to break again all rules pf
civilization and humanity on land nd
at sea; and while she may act THIS,
all her commerce at sea is to remIh
as free in time of war as all cfz
merce is in time of peace. Freedm
of the sea may be a very REASONABLE
subject for discussion, definition nd
agreement between nations after tis
war; but not by itself alone, not VILE
there is no freedom and no secuity
against war and German methodslof
war on land. If there are to be gar
antees against future war. let them
be equal, comprehensive. and effective
guarantees that bind Germany as yell
as other nations, including ourselves.
Germany Purposes Supremacy.
Germany is to be supreme The
freedom of other nations is to be hat
which Germany metes out to item.
Such is apparently the conclusion to
be drawn from the German chaIcel.
lor's speech: and to this the Gerhan
minister of finance adds that THE
heavy burden of thousands of millions
must be borne through decades, mot
by Germany, but by those whom lshe
is pleased to call the instigatori OF
the war. In other words, for decides
to come Germany claims that whole
nations who have resisted her shbuld
labor to pay her tribute in the brm
of war indemnities.
Not on such terms can peace be
concluded or the life of other nations
than Germany be free or even tbler-
able. The speeches of the German
chancellor and finance minister make
it appear that Germany is fighting for
supremacy and tribute. If that + so
and as long as it is so, our Allies and
we are fighting and must fight for
the right to live, not under German
but in real freedomI and
safety.

SWEDEN HELPS GERMANY
BY FORWARDING SUPPLIES
(By Associated Press.

STOCKHOLM. - Figures showing
the exact increase in Swedish imports
and exports since the beginning Of the
war and uphoIding the English con-
tention that Sweden has acted as a
valuable channei for the delivery OF
materials to Germany, have been OBJ
tanned by a correspondent Of The As
ISOLATED Press. According to these
statistics, which are as yet unpubIish-
ed, and now available for the first
time, SWeden's cotton imports during
the first six months of 1915 were over
nine times as large as her cotton i'm
ports during the corresponding months
of the previous year. From January
to June, 1914, Sweden imported H.
$500 klos Of cotton. During the
equivalent period this year, the i'm
port was risen to los, e26,o31 ki!os.
Although cotton shows the most
startling increase, the importation of
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1915-10-30

other articles has risen considerably.
Twenty-three million kiIos Of coffee
have been imported In the first six
months Of 1915, against sixteen mil
lions for the same part Of the pre-
vious year. Cocoa beans have increas-
ed from 800 tousand to one million
six hundred thousand during the same
period of time. Lubricating and min
eraI oils have also shown increase.
While Sweden exported only $780,
$50 kIlos Of copper during the six
months before the war began, she ex-
ported during the next six months g.
e52, 56s kilos. The figures given do
not tell what portion of this export
has gone to Germany and what por-
ton elsewhere, but Il Is generally
agreed that it has been sent almost
exclusively to Germany. Figures re-
garding other exports are not now
available.

There are some points in the speech

dealt with in letter to the press

4. The Belgian record Of converse.
tion With the British military attache
was published by Germany last
trafficked her neutrality with us, and
was IN effect in a plot with us against
Germany.
The conversation OF which most use
has been made was never reported to
the Foreign office nor. as far as rec
ordE show, TO the War office at the
time. and we saw record Of It for
the first time when Germany pub.
Iished the Belgian record. But IL
bears on the face OF Il that II referred
only to the contingency of Belgium
being attacked. that the entry Of the
British into Belgium would take place
only after the violation Of Belgian
territory BY Germany. and that II did
not commit the British government
No convention OF agreement existed
between the British and Belgian gov
ernments Why does the German
chancellor mention these informal
conversations Of 1906 and ignore en-.
tirely that in April. 1913. told the
Belgian Minister most emphatically
that what we desired in the case Of
Belgium, as IN that Of other neutral
countries: was that their neutrality
should be respected. and that as long
as II was not violated by any other
power we should certainly not send
troops ourselves into their territory.
Good Faith and Belgium
Let II be remembered that the first
use made by Germany Of the Belgian
document was to charge Belgium with
bad faith to Germany. What is the
true story? On the 18th OF July, 1914.
the German chancellor tried to bribe
us BY d promise Of future Belgian
Independence to become party to-
the violation OF Belgian neutrality by.
Germany. On the outbreak Of war he
described the Belgian treaty as
scrap OF paper, and the German for
e1en secretary explained that Ger
many must 60 through Belgium to
attack France. because she could not
afford the time to do otherwise. The
statement Of Herr Won Jagow is worth
quoting again:

Treverton left the cottage and
made his way back TO verney Hall
for lunch. When he had finished his
meal, he went into the library and.
lighting his pipe. seated himself in
chair by the window.
Something Is going on between
Gyatt and Shil." he said to himself.
"and it's been going on for quite a

tom OF the business. I don't trust

said, land that's the honest truth
