THE THOUGHT

BRITON AND GERMAN

"a. L. kroeber in New York Post)
Germany wants peace. She wants
1t badly. There can be no doubt in
the world about it. One hears every
where. Every one talks peace. Many
expect it, some profoundly and soon;
and the conviction seems to rest on
little else than desire. That peace

the war began, and that it will come

faiths that are echoed about.
1t is another story in England.

pose peace will be torn to pieces, it

ed demand that is allowed TO get into
print. the prohibition is publicly OBJ
served But there is not a man or
woman in Germany that is not dis
cussing peace terms with all his
acquaintance. And no two are
agreed. The man on the street is
likely to insist that Belgium must
be kept at all costs; that not only
must Poland be detached from Rus
STA. but Courland be taken, and he
expects that a few weeks more will
bring Germans and Turks knocking
at the door of Egypt and insure a
permanent rearrangement. in all
Asia, as well as the Balkans, in Ger
many's favor.
Among educated people, there is
considerable sentiment that it would
be unwise to annex any territory
whatsoever. Perhaps fair average
of the opinion of the most intelligent
is that Belgium should be given back
and France remain unmulcted; but
that an autonomous Poland, or some
thing Of the kind, is necessity to
keep Russia at arms length. There
is no shadow of doubt in the mind
of any German that England is his
real enemy! and to the last man he
desp!ses the Russian as an incom-
petent; but he fears the near weight
of his millions, nevertheless; and to-
wards the east. his instinct tells
him. he must have air.
One Thought in Germany and
England
But underlying it all, in the minds
of those who do not merely repeat
phrases, is the idea, soemtimes ex-
pressed and always felt, that terri
tories and indemnities and treaties
do not matter. They can be left tc
the accidents of future or the wis
dom of the government when the
time comes. What does count is
that the war must be fought out tc
a point where repetition of the
situat ion that led to this war is i'm
possible; where his people shall be
free to maintain its existence and
that of its civilization in security
and peace. That is the one unalter-
able thought of every German. And
cording to his powers of expression,
does not say exactly the same thing
for England.
One feels strangely humble in the
realization of this great irony of two
proud nations, not to mention their
devoted allies, pouring out their life
blood against each other for a com
mon object. In this sense, it is bit,

hility of formally decisive con-

England and Germany have become

Ecisc, Idaho jar. 2i-The pro-
hibilion amendment passed the
house this mornong by a unani-
nous vote without any change
i'm its wording. Hull of Kool-
enai attempted a nlisbuster, but
was unsuccessful. This was
rot for the purpose of making
the proposed amendment weaker,
but to make il more drastic.
"The amendment favors the

hibits the transportation for sale
wherear it should prohibit the
transportation for any purpose
whatever. The bootleggers will
not now be prevented from get
Ting liquor into dry territory by
reason of the United States Webb
law, for they will say they are
shipping it in for their own use
and not contrary to the laws of
the state of Idaho"
Other members expressed their
approval of the measure, even
though not as drastic as they
favored. If it were made any
stronger, they feared a lwo-thirds
vote could not be secured.
