the German women favorable to the
war;"
Il do not believe that any true Ger
man mother or wife was for the war
or can be. Yet there comes a time
when war Is navoidable-when an
unwelcome war Is forced upon a ma
ton and German women are mothers
of sons who are, or who have been
soldiers They knew and realized as
perhaps the women of no other coun-
try knew and realized, with the pos
sible exception of France what war
really meant to them before it came.
That they gave freely of their sons to
the fatherland when it was in danger
has been shown and is being shown
daily But. that they wanted war

wife,
AS 7 touched upon the attempts be-
ing made to engender hatred between
the people of warning nations, the
crown princess remarked: Isn't love
Of fatherland a great enough motive
for fighting, dying If needs be. work
ing or ministering for that fatherlando
Why add hatred to it? Love of coun-
try does not need hate to stimulate
patriotism or to create spirit OF
self sacrifice"
The crown princess praised the gen.
crosby and kindness of America to
the women and children OF all of the
warning nations and especially ex-
pressed appreciation over the Christ
mas gifts sent to Germany.
Il hope they never may be, but I
am certain that II your country should
be plunged into war the American
women, whom found SO vivacious.
charming and beautiful and OF whose
interest and work for public welfare
I have heard much, will prove as
noble, self sacrificing and heroic as
have our German women" she added
She declared that none of her babies
have seen their father since the war
began.

but he has not been back here IN
Berlin since the war began. He be-
