Why IS PEACE IMPOSSIBI E?-A GENERAL SURVEY

from French armies. The German cal
cuations Of peace no longer include the
occupation of France from Belfort to
Calais.
Not less complete has been the refutation
of the German assertions as to Britain. To
day contingents from all British colonies
are fighting in Belgium and France;
South African troops are extinguishing
the last flicker Of German light in Africa;
Canadians and Australians are in the
trenches at the Somme. India is quiet.
Egypt has been annexed and has not re-
voted. Britain has adopted CONSUMPTION
and raised millions. The empire that de-
Tended itself by mercenaries and lacked
the manhood to endure national service
has accepted the Teutonic system and is
beginning to get the German results.
The New Russia
Nor is the awakening as to Russia less
complete. After defeats and disasters
Russia returned last spring to the attack
and in a few short weeks disposed of SOO,-
900 Austrian troops, taking nearly half
prisoners. Every intrigue of the court
and the mobiles for a separate peace has
been thwarted, and slowly, painfully, but
Enthusiastically, a new Russia is being de-
veloped which Is controlled by those who
have no sympathy with German ideas or
German rulers; liberal Russia is rising
on Germanys eastern marches, Russia
whose very vastness contains a permanent
menace to Teutonism.
And so we may say that on both sides
of the present firing lines there has been
an enormous establishment, and this dis
illusienment has been the sole contribution
to peace of two years and half of war
On both sides there are certain things
now recognized that would not have been
conceded before. Germany recognizes the
permanence of France and of Britain, the
enduring menace of Russia. The Entente
Allies recognize the futility of their earlier
notions of remaking Germany to suit their
own democratic ideals or selfish aims; they
perceive that Austria is not yet neces-
sarily doomed and they behold Turkey still
enduring.
Abandoned Dreams
All these things are a gain for peace.
All these things contribute to the removal
of ideas and misapprehensions which
were, while they continued, a permanent
barrier to any possible peace settlement
now or hereafter. On the German side
they mean a temporary or permanent
abandonment of any dream that world

Neither Side Is Beaten and Both Side;
Have Grounds to Hope That Real
Victory Is Still PoSsible-Agree-
ment No Nearer Than 1t
Was Two Years Ago
Bv FRANK II. SIMONDS
A,bor Of 'The Great War" and "They Shall Not Pass

ISL and the Russians consent TO peace on
the basis of two years ago? Would France
put aside forever the dream of the Lost
Provinces? Would Britain agree to re-
turn the colonies she has conquered?
Would Italy give over the hopes of Trieste
and the Trentino? Would Russia surren-
der her best chance to get Constantinople,
a chance supported by Britain and
France7 This, too, is inconceiyable. No
one can know French or British sentiment
at this hour who believes that such an ac-
commodation is to-day conceivable. \
The Germans, as all their public and
official statements show, believe that they
have won the war. To support this view
they point to the long list of their vic
tories and to the vast extent of the terri
tory they have occupied They assert that
the last summer has proved that their
Western line cannot be pierced, while their
Rumanian victory has demonstrated that
they still have sufficient man power to
meet new foes and win new victories
They seem honestly TO believe that this
fact is recognized by their opponents, but
that the statesmen of the opposing coun-
tries wickedly compel their peoples to go
forward.
French and British Belief
But the French and the British reason
quite differently. They believe that even
the limited successes of this summer
demonstrate that the German armies in the
West can be beaten. They reason that
they are already superior in numbers,
guns and munitionment; they point TO the
lessons of the wars of Louis XIV and
of Napoleon. Germany and her allies
have never won the victories of Napoleon;
they have never approached his domina-
ton of the Continent. They have never
done what he did; that is, temporarily put
out one opponent, as Napoleon put out
Austria at Austerlitz, Prussia at Jena and
Russia at Friedland.
The Allies count on numbers, wealth,
superior resources and the control Of the
sea. They point to the records Of the past
in the great coalition wars, and they are
able to say that these coalitions ultimately
wore down nations placed as Germany is
placed to-day, after suffering initial de-
feats and disasters far surprising those
that they have suffered or are likely now
to suffer.
The Effect Of Passions Unclaimed
There is one more force that must be
reckoned with; it is the force Of passion.
The invasion of Belgium. the atrocities
and the crimes. the bombardment Of
Rheims and the burning of Louvain, the
submarine campaign and the Zeppelin
raids have reused in Britain and in France
an emotion that might easily drive both
peoples to continue a war after the hope
of victory had departed, either in blind
anger or in the despairing conviction that

As to Germany and her allies, largely

considerable victory in Rumania, victory
which must dssipate any pessimism OF

judith of the Cumberlands."

The cast supporting Miss Holmes is
particularly strong. The character
parts are played by actors who have
thoroughly established their ability in
many powerful and exacting produc-
tions. Pau c. Hursts work as a vii
lain in Whispering Smith" of the Mu-
tuars Helen Holmes features will be
remembered as an important work OF
realism. In judith of the Cumber-
lands" as Blatchley Turrentine he has
role with probably more opportu.
nifty. Leo d. MaloneY to be remem-
bered for his work in the previous
Helen Holmes features is particularly
vel cast as Greed in Judith of the
Cumberlands. The picture is pro-
duced by j. p. McGowan whose
standard of work needs no comment
The story treats OF an ancient
mountain feud in which Greed Bon
bright, who lost his father in fight
with a rival clan, tres to educate the
sturdy mountain men to respect the
law instead of disregarding it. He is
loved by Judith Barrier, the niece OF
Uncle Jepp Turrentine, the leader OF
the rival clan. Judith is also loved
by Bltchley Turrentine, a distant
cousin, who runs an illicit whiskey
still in a cave on Uncle Jepp's proper
ty. He hates Greed and swears ven'
geance upon him. Andy and jeff
sons of Uncle Jepp's, are engaged
with Blatch in making moonshine
whiskey.
Judith of the Cumberlands' has
the same cast exactly as did "Whis-
perng Smith"
In addition We will present Vogue
