WHEN BLOOD IS THEIR ARGU
 MENT"


 By Ford Madox Hueffer. George H Doran Co.,, Publishers, New York.
 MT Hueffer, equally distinguished as novelist, journalist, traveller, and essayist equally at home in England Germany and America, gives a powerful and deer probing account of what German ideals really are today in When Blood h Their Argument. a book sensat tional vel true.
 'T hope MT. Hueffer's book will be read in the United States, for Kultur has yet to be understood by the greatest re- public. After reading it one sees that this war will fix once and for all the fate of mankind I hope it will be digesteo by the workers of every country, by busi. ness men, by artists. by the learned pro fessions, for they all have yet to lay hold of the true meaning of kultur," says MT. James Douglass in London Star
 A clever, penetrating, caustic style drives home every point. A book O. genuine importance and wide significance Nobody knows Prussia better than MT Hueffer. and his indictment of German civilization is the most effective that ha: yet appeared.

Association made an appeal through the
papers a week ago for the Belgian at

leadership OF Milton E. Allies, its chair
