struggle which shall have established
certain things in the world.
Question of Possible Peace.

! am not seeking here to analyze. JUS
tify or condone British and French
tempers. l am here concerned only with
discussing them as they affect the ques-
ton of possible peace. But they do affect
this discussion: they are the chief OBJ
stacles and there is no apparent way in
which a change can be had without a
new campaign and another six months
of struggle. If the French and British
cannot in that time accomplish their
ends. conceiyably their own bitterness
will diminish. as has the German, and an
exhausted Europe will come to the dis
cussion of peace. forgetting passion and
ambition in its WEAKNESS. But this time
is not yet, and nowhere outside OF Ger
many, where the French and British
temper is not understood, is there any
talk of peace.
To me the most astonishing thing in
the present situation is the fact that
the German does not now seem to have
the least comprehension of the state of
mind of those who are fightinga him.
He cannot understand why they vii not
talk of peace when he offers terms that
are at the least generous on the face of
the present battle lines. But the reason
is not merely found in the fact tbs: the
allies expect to win; il is found in the
reaction to German policies and meth
DDS of making war as they have been
revealed in Belgium, France and Great
Britain and described to the non-Teu-
tonic world.

RESTRICTION ON PRUSSIAN
CENSORSHIP DEMANDED

BERLIN, February 2S.-The Prussian
diet ended its consideration of the CEN
sorshiD question by adopting resolu-
tons demanding restriction of the
censorship to matters imposed by the
necessities of military operations; that
it is to be uniformly exercised, and
that civilian authorities who fulfill the
duties of censorship assume the re-
sponsibility for their action. Another
resolution demanding freedom to dis
cuss the aims of the war also was
adopted
The two-day debate showed that the
members of the diet, like the mem bers
of the reichstag, do not complain of
the military censorship. but accuse,the
political censorship of issuing indie
Unable orders, and especially complain
of it's. lack. of uniformity.

How Germans Use Aluminium.


Austria and Germany use more alumni
mum for war purposes than all the
other warning nations combined. 1t
has been known, in fact, that Germany
has for some years been collecting and
storing the metal for war uses.
The great. majority of the drinking
mugs, cans and cups of the German
soldier are made of the light. metal.
The frames for Zeppelins and the fuses
for shells are made from aluminium.
One of the difficulties the Germans
have had to face is the shortage of
copper necessary for the rings round
shells. Many of the German shells are
now provided with aluminium rings.
Although aluminium does make a
substitute, even in cartridges as we'll
as shells and fuses. it is not so good as
copper The French authorities ex-
perimented with it some years ago for
artillery purposes. but rejected it. The
Germans are using it in such large
quantities because they're forced to do
so on account of the shortage of cop

NATIONAL DEFENSE FIRST,
SAYS RUSS SOCIALIST

LONDON, February ga Petrograd
dispatch to Reuters Telegram Com
pany says that NJ. Bourianoff, speaking
in the duma on behalf of the Russian
socialists, declared that it was not to
the interest of the proletariat to desire
the triumph of Prussian militarism.
Moreover. the speaker said. the neces-
sity Of national defense came before
all questions of interior politics.. and
the participation of the proletariat in
the solution of this task is imperiously
dictated by the present circumstances.
Russian workers, NJ. Bourianof stat
ed. can only seek peace when convinced
that the German proletariat opposes
the aspirations of German imperialism.
Unfortunately, he concluded, confer
ences of German socialists failed to
bring about this condition.

The Defenses of the Rhine.
From Pearson's Weekly.


The time is getting nearer when the
Germans will be fighting along the line
of the Rhine, and people are beginning
to ask what the defeEses of the famous
river are like.
The Rhine is really Germany's great
natural barrier against invasion from
France, but, like any other river, it is
not impregnable.
Why some people think that the cross
ing of the Rhine will be difficult is be-
cause of the number of fortresses which
defend it. Strassburg, Mayence, Co
blenz and Cologne are all heavily forti-
fed, but experience has shown in this
war that fortresses are not so formi-
liable as was supposed few years ago.
The Rhine. indeed. will chiefly be de-
Tended by trenches dug along the
banks.
AT Cologne the river is about a fifth
of a mile wide it's width increasing
steadily up to half mile at the Dutch
frontier. The current is a rapid one.
and the banks are mostly fiat and
marshy.

Says Differences Remain.

The truth is, then. that the differences
which led to the present conflict, the
rivalries which provoked the struggle,
remain. The western war is fought
out: even the Germans concede this
and the German suggestions of peace
all recognize that there must be here
a return to the conditions of 1914 But
in the east there are prizes in German
hands which she must surrender If
she would have peace. To surrender
them is not merely to lose a war: ii is
| to lose for all time, as far as II is pos
sible to see, the chance to build a Teu-
tonic empire in Europe and Asia: it is
TO surrender the Balkans and Asia Mi
nor to the Slav. just as she has been
compelled to surrender the use of the
seas and her colonies beyond the seas
ITO the British.
Germany Is not. SO far as any one
can Judge, at the point of complete ex-
haustion, and the terms that arc asked
| of her are the terms that are asked
! only of a nation that is not defeated
but crushed. Yet to obtain anything
| for her great sacrifices Germany must
| hold permanently French, Russian or
Serbian lands, leaving Belgium out of
! the count. This the unbeaten allies will
1 not consent to. could not now consent
! to. Hence there 10 no basis for peace.

TRepubl'can A. P Leased Wire,

NEW YORK, Sept 30.-The twenty fifth struggle for worlds series base ball honors and the twelfth under the control of the National Baseball Com mission, will bring together two east ern clubs, as has been the case each year since 1911. With Boston. winners of the American League pennant, and Brooklyn the victors in the National League race as contenders, the battles for the premier honors of the profes sional diamond will revive memories of similar contests in which these clubs have figured in the past.
 The Boston Americans, since their entry into the junior league in 1901 have won the pennant four times, not including the present season, and have competed for the worlds title three tins. In 1903 the team captured it's first pennant and then defeated the Pittsburg Nationals in an eight-game series by five games to three. The fol- lowing year the team repeated its league victory but the New York club, winner of the National League pen nant, would not permit its players to contend for the worlds championship. which action eventually led to the Ma tional Commission taking charge of the worlds series. In 1912 and 1915 the Boston Americans again won the right to play in the series and defeated the New York Nationals and the Philadel- phia Nationals respectively by scores of four to three, with one tie contest and four games to one.
 Although Brooklyn has figured in major league baseball for twenty six wears as against Boston's fifteen, the Superbas have wen but three pen nantS and have never played in a worlds series under the modern mean

ing of tie term. Brooklyn entered the National League in 1890 and signaled it's debut by straightway capturing the flag. At the end of the season the team met the Louisville club, champions of the American Association, in the worlds series of those days. and the contest ended iE seven game tie; each club winning three games with another tied when darkness put an end to the play. In 1899 and 1900 Brooklyn was the National League champion, but as the Temple Cup series had beer abandoned and the present series not yet established, the Superbas were un- able to find opponents for titular combat.
 While Brooklyn was deprived of the opportunity to compete for the cham piCnship in past years the present ser ies offers the club a chance to bring the National league back on an equal footing with the American league in the matter of Worlds series won. At the present time the record shows that the junior league clubs have won six out of the eleven series played since the national commission assumed con trol of the baseball classic. The score stands as follows American league Philadelphia Athletics 3; Boston Red Sox ?; Chicago White Sox 1; Nationai eague-Chicago Cubs 2; New York Giants, Boston Braves and Pittsburg, one each.
 The results of the Worlds series since the first contest between Provi dence National league winners and the Metropolitan club of the American As sociation in 1884 and the position of the Boston Americans and the Brook lyn National each season since they entered their respective leagues, are shown in the appended tabulations.
