Kill so many Germans that no German
vii ever again lare to care to repeat
the crimes of 1914.
Germany has been very largely cured
of her madness, despite the boasting Of
her public speakers. Her dream of world
4Wer has vanished in thin air and her
people have suffered too terribly 20
have illusions for many years to come.
her people are not yet so weary
that they are prepared to give up Ger
man territory to the foreigner, not even
Alsace- Lorraine. and they are correct in
maintaining that there is no present rea-
son in the military situation why they
should. They may be correct in their
belief that the Allies will never be able
to keep the war going TO the point where
the German people will abandon the
Rhine district.
There will be no peace until the Al
lies have conquered Germany, "crushed
herr as the phrase is, or have tired OF
the enormous sacrifices the policy of
crushing entails. When they tire it will
be the simplest thing in the world to
make peace terms. so far as France,
Italy and Great Britain are concerned.
The war as far as Belgium is concerned
is over. Germany has lost the war, as
a whole, because she went into the war
determined to win world supremacy.
and she is coming out of the war, at the
very hest. heavily burdened with debt,
leaving her great lCes unbeaten, leaving
Great Britain. her chief rival. organized
for war or something like a German
basis and having lost the world mar
kcts in which she found her greatest
prosperity before the war.
Germany lost the war when Winston
Churchill modified the British fleet in
fine and Joseph JolIre won the Battle of
the Marine. But there will be no peace
until the Allies discover that they can
not crush Germany. or succeed in crush
ing her. Their belief that they can
crush her rests very largely on the mem
tai condition created by their passion
ate anger at German atrocities in the
opening days of the war, plus the pro-
gram of German megalomaniacs, aca-
demic and militaiistic. Europe cured
France of tie delusion of world power
but she did not crush France. II seems
now highly unlikely that Germany ear
/ be crushed. But this is not yet tn,
view in London, Paris or Petrograd.

tisanship and if he did not voice the
thought ne must, nevertheless, i.dve
been in mental agreement with the
popular view that the policy is patriotic.
Having by his words removed it from
the domain of party, placed it high
above partisan action, and in accord
ance with that idea called Republican
leaders into consultation upon this most
important national question, he should
not, without exerting every particle OF
influence that he can command as Prcsi-
dent of the United States and as the
leader of the Democratic party, permit
that party to be organized as against
preparedness in national defense.
The President of the United States
has stated this question is not a party
question and has called upon all parties
to give it support.
There are Democratic leaders. how
ever, who do not agree with the Presi-
dent, and they seek to defeat the meas
ures contemplated through arraying the
Democratic party against them.
The President will stand. no doubt
by the policy which he has declared cs-
sential to the safety and security of the
republic. and he and his counselors viii
find that no halfway measures will be
effective in convincing the opposition in
his own party that such opposition is
not only futile, but is regarded as non
patriotic.
When the Congress reassembles after
the holiday recess the country expects
vigorous, decisive and united action by
all friends of the policy Of preparedness.
and the intrieues and subtle workings of
those opposed to strengthening the ma
tional defense should be rendered vain
by the work of patriotic men OF all par
ties in the Congress.

Germany has lost the war because she
cannot now bring h e any considerable
portion OF what she hoped 10 bring
home. She has rushed France. and
she cannot crush France She has not
shaken British sea power. and She can
not shake il. She no longer controls
Italy. and she cannot again control
Italy, save as she subordinates Austrian
to Italian interests, and this would be
fatal to her own. Germany has above
ALL lost the war because she must make
terms with the British fleet before she
can resume her commercial life, and
she has nothing to offer the British in
return save only the profits Of her first
campaign in the west and her colonies,
which have passed 10 the British or are
at British mercy already. Meantime she
has provided Great Britain with not less
than 1000. 900 trained troops. who win

war.
Conceivaby the Germans will get
across the Snez Canal into Egypt il is
possible. even though unlikely; but this
will not affect British sea power. It will
not break the blockadc in The North Sea.
lt will not take India, because Japan is
pledged 10 defend India iii necessary, and
Japan is far nearer TO India han Ger

has lost the war because there is now
nothing that she can get which win per-

the provinces that She plans to take now

future perls.

A BOULEVARD FREICHT LINE.

FROM the Milton Times.
Now that the DUPONT boulevard is
an assured fact from the Maryland line
up through Delaware to Milford and
into Kent county. the farmers are
awakening to the benefits it will bring
them. At present the freight rate on
a crate OF eggs from Selbyville is AZ
cents while the freight rate from Mil
ford by steamer is 10 cents.
With a cement road from Selbyville
to Milford a number of business men
are proposing TO run automobile
trucks and will haul a crate OF eggs
for 10 cents. making the total freight
from Selbyville to Philadelphia by
motor truck to Milford, and then by
steamer only 20 cents, a saving OF 22
cents on each crate. Freight from the
cities will also be delivered i'm the
same way. coming by steamer to Mil
ford with the low water rates and
then hauled direct to the door OF the
farm for one-third Of the present rail
road rates. Machinery phosphate and
almost everything used on the farm
can be brought in that way. while
most OF the crops can be delivered in
the same way at a big saving.
