sian Poland against an enemy of
five times their strength, they
forced their way through the iron
wall and ever brought back IT,
900 prisoners. In this spirit two
million volunteers in Germany
and almost one and one-half mil
lion in Austria crowded to answer
the call to arms at the beginning
Of the war. In France they could
scarcely raise 10000. In England
Kitchener has today not been able
{ transport even his first million
over to France. 1t is the same
spirit which made the heroes of
he "Emden' strong. About an
hours distance from Vienna,
where the road leads up the bare
mountain, a winegrower lost his
wo sons and his son-in-law. But
on the door Of his house, together
With a picture of the Holy Virgin,
he carved out of beautiful light
wood the epitaph:
ITO the Kaiser did l give
Three sons with sword in
hand;
No longer nov these sons do
live.
Oh, Lord, protect our land!'
The Prussian Ministry of War
ssued weeks ago an edict about
he transportation home of the
corpses of those who have fallen.
At the end it says: For him, who
las fallen for his Fatherland, the
soldiers grave is the most honor
lble, the place where he fought
md fell, in the midst of his COM
AIDES, whose rest may not be dis
urbed for the sake of one. The
lands of comrades have already
With loving hand laid out the
ground around many of the
graves and these places will be
preserved" That is the spirit
If the German and Austro-H Hun
sarian army from the Minister of
Var to the father who sacrifices
lis sons for the fatherland. The
world may judge whether a
greater moral strength will spring
rom this spirit or from the spirit
which dictated Kitchener's pleas
lre-trip advertisement or the
Paris law against fortune-tellers.
Germany's enemies want to
starve her out. In their press
hey make sport of the potato
bread and of the "potato-bread
spirit in Germany. They should
beware of this potato-bread spirit.
The English Minister Lloyd
George had a moment of insight
when he warned his countrymen
that the 'po.ato-bread spirit" of
the German people is something
that should rather be feared than
smiled at. This spirit is the same
one that has animated the entire
German nation since the begin
ming of the war. 1t inspired the
peasant women of Dachau near
Munich, when they quietly auc-
toned off their inestimably valua-
BILE old national costumes to raise
money for a hospital. This spirit
makes the people compliant when
the Government prescribes the
daily ration of bread, dictates the
amount of potatoes, sends home
grown people like children early
at night, and limits the use Of the
national drink, the beer. 1t is
this spirit which has made posi-
BILE the impossible since the be-
ginning of the war it has created

Where is the Greatest Moral
Strength in this War?


public peace in Germany so that
the party strife and religious dis
sension have been silent down to
the present day, as if it had been
choked by a giant hand. In the
Prussian Chamber of Deputies, in
the Reichstag, the parties ac-
cepted the budget without any
opposition or dissension. A ma
tional, which in the midst of a
world war does not and does not
have to, curtail a single mark OF
its billions of expenses for cul-
tural purposes, has a claim to the
admiration of the entire world.
What an enormous moral
strength lies in this public peace.
in the attitude of the German
political parties toward one an
other, in the self-sacrihcing strug-
gle of all the Germans since Aug
ust LIST. Led by this moral
strength, the young troops in
Flanders held their own against
an English force sixteen times as
strong. And the English Com
mander-in-C Chief had even encour
aged his army with the words
Never in this war has there beer
a more favorable moment for vic
tory for us, for forty-eight bat
talions are fighting against only
three battalions of Germans"
Filled with this moral strength,
two weak Rhenish divisions IL
cessfully opposed for weeks, alons
a front of eight kilometers, in the
winter battle in Champagne, a
French force of sixteen times
their strength. Forty-hve thou
sand French fell and only $4,000
Germans. And yet the enemy
had previously tried to weaken
the Germans by a dreadful artil-
lery drum-hre of often 100 600
shots in "a hours, by mines. by
uninterrupted attacks.
The papers write that 1850 iur-
lists have already fallen. The
pathological papers mention q
similar number of teachers in the
middle and high schools. There
were many volunteers among
them. These figures also speal
of the moral strength which pre-
walls among the German people
and which unites the entire nation
into an army of the people. l,
the hospitals lie the poor cripples
and wounded, a small placarG
mentions their names, but that i.
all. 1t does not say that here ar
assessor and a poor laborer have
become comrades in the battle and
now friends and bed-fellows. II
says nothing at all of the acts
OF love which the professor per
forms for the laborer, the peas.
ants son for the judge, the mer
chant for the young student. The
physicians and sisters, however
tell everyone who visits a hospi
tai, of dozens of such deeds. Tha
is the spirit which animates tn;
German troops; that is the spiri
which unites and strengthens tho
entire German nation. The
world may compare with this
spirit Kitchener's last appeal 70,
recruits and then answer til,
question: From which spirit will
arise the greatest moral strength,
from the spirit which animates
the German people and which has
led the Germany army to victory,
or the spirit which fills its enemies
only with hatred for Germany?

many's men and youths to arms.
You have surely prayed earnestly
until now for victory and for
peace. You must do so even more
diligently. You must all join and
form a large army, an entire army
of praying children. Not only
today and tomorrow, but until
victory has been won for us and
peace is among us again. Even
the very little ones car take part,
but even more the older ones
among you, especially those who
have already partaken of the holy
communion and those who will
shortly receive holy communion
for the first time. Oh, what a
large army of praying children
there will be in our large bis
hopric. Your fathers and brothers
are out yonder in the trenches and
on the battle6elds and watch and
pray and fight and bleed and die,
if necessary, for their fatherland.
The grown-ups at home work
and help and give everything they
have, if it is necessary. Do you
children want to lag behind? OF
course notl I can see your eyes
light up and al hear your hearts
beat with eager readiness. Very
well! Bring what you have, your
prayers and your sacrifices When
the bells ring joyously and SOL
EMMY to announce full victory
and lasting peace, then they will
ring twice as joyfully for you,
because you have contributed
your share for victory and peace
as good Catholic children of His
Empire. God rules everything
as He wills. We human beings
can do nothing without Him.
Since your dear children stand
nearest to God, your Kaiser and
King asks you to pray to Him to
bless us and grant His favor TO
our cause. Do not stop praying
with folded hands, you small ones
and you smallest ones. When the
children of the Empire pray for
their fatherland, then I know that
our star is in the ascendant
That is the view that Germany
and Austria take of the war and
of their fight in this ar. Out Of
this consciousness there springs
the moral strength which helps
them to live through this grea.
experience and to fight the great
battle until a victorious end has
been reached. Not the last silver
bullet, as an English Minister has
prophecied, but the greatest moral
strength will win in this world
war. Not the nation which has
the most money and does the best
business, but the nation in which
there is the greatest moral
strength will be victorious. The
world may judge even today
where in the nine months of the
bloody battles of the nations the
greatest moral strength has been
revealed.
Since the beginning of the war,
Sandwich" men and women had

from such views? Is it any won
der that a writer in the Daily
Chronicle" hurled the following
statement at Minister Lloyd
George: "A campaign against
drinking would be better than
one against German civilization"
The man who wrote this referred
to the increasing amount of
drunkenness in England, espe-
cially i'll London, since the begin
ming of the war.
The Project of Paris this week

French penal code, because of the

manded relief measures on the

civil life in Paris has been pros

In Germany there is not a house
and not a family from which a
son, the father, a brother, or
brother-in-law has not bled in the
war or died an heroic death.
Nevertheless, the commercial life
continues along its accustomed

gladly for the heroic fight for the

with mustered troops the profess
sor stands next to the bricklayer,
the accessor next to the streetcar
conductor, the judge next to the
street-cleaner. From that moment
on, when the Fatherland called,
they are all only servants and
protectors of the fatherland. This
spirit animates the Landsturm,

1T seems to me we will all
have to relearn many things to a
greater or smaller degree, for the
epoch in which we are living is
the greatest experience which was
ever granted to a generation, and
experience is education for a
thinking person"
With these words the new I'm
perial Secretary of the Treasury,
DR.. Helfferich, began his great
speech on the budget in the Ger
man Reichstag. The Social
Democratic Deputy Hanisch de-
clared emphatically in the debate
in the Prussian House of Repre-
sentatives: Il wish and hope fer
vently that much of the expert
ence and many of the necessities,
which this war has produced, will
also pass over into the coming
years of peace and will then be-
come a great blessing for our en-
tire nation" The same Social
Democrat quoted approvingly
the statement of Professor Will
helm Forster, who has a large
reputation far beyond the confines
of Germany and who is the son
of the famous founder of the So
ciety for Ethical Culture: The
many grown-up children should
learn a lesson today from the
great import of this time and
thereby rise to a higher moral
level. The sons and brothers
who are shedding their blood on
the battlefield have a right to die
in the certainty that their death
does not help to fill new money
bags, but arouses new life and
spirit" The German Kaiser re-
Gently t~elegraphed to the Rhen-
ish Provincial Landtag which
paid homage to him: Even
though the planned celebration
of the hundred years allegiance
of the Rhenish Province to the
crown of Prussia has been
thwarted by the visitation which
has come over the fatherland, the
loyalty to my house and the love
for the fatherland which has
grown SO much larger in the past
one hundred years, could not be
demonstrated more solemnly than
has been done by the strength and
heroism of the Rhenish sons on
the battlefield and by the ready
sacrifice and helpfulness of the
other inhabitants of the Rhine
land. May the Lord bless our
beautiful Rhine Province and its
inhabitants in the future and may
he grant to Germany after a hard
fought battle a glorious victory
and a happy future
In this spirit we have from the
very first day regarded this terri
BILE conflict between the nations.
That is why the Germans began
it with a day of penance and
prayer throughout the country.
That is why they accompanied it
until today with days of devotion
and penance. That is the way
Germany's bishops and arch
bishops have taught the believers.
Cardinal Archbishop Won Hart
mann, in Cologne, says in his pas
torial letter to the children of his
diocese: War is upon us; many
enemies wish to destroy our be-
loved German Fatherland. Our
Kaiser appealed to God and ex-
horted us all to pray and to trust
in God. And then he called Ger
