possible that any sane people could
behave in that manner. and they
tolerated it once and they tolerated

There are two great facts which
Clinch the argument that this is a
great struggle for freedom. The first
is the fact that America has come
in. She would not have come in
otherwise. The second is the Rus
sian revolution.
why did Germany deliberately,
in the third year Of the war. pro-
woke America TO this declaration and
to this action? Deliberately-res-
Olutely Ii has been suggested the
reason there were certain elements
in American life which they were
under the impression would make
il impossible for the United States
TO declare war. That / can hardly
believe. But the answer has been
afforded by Gen. Won Hindenburg
himself in a very remarkable in
terview which appeared in the press.
He depended really upon one Of
the two things. namely that the sub
marine campaign could have de-
stroyed international shipping to
such an extent that England would
have been out of business before
America was ready. According to
his computation America could not
be ready for y months. He does
not know America. He is confident
in the alternative, that when Amer
lea is ready at the end of II months
with her army. she will have no
ships to transport an army to the
field of battle.
1T behooves the whole of the
allies, Great Britain and America,
notably, TO see that reckoning of
Gen. Won Hindenburg is false.

elements Of suspicion still lurking
in the minds of the people OF the
United states OF America. that there
were many who thought perhaps
that the kings were at their old
tricks That the United states OF
America has made up its mind fin
ally il is abundantly clear to the
world that this is no struggle OF that
character but a great fight for hu-
man liberty.
They naturally did not know at
first what we had endured i'm Eu-
rope for years from this military
caste-it had never reached as far
as the United States of America.
Prussia is no democracy. The kaiser
promises that it viii be a democracy
after the war-I think he is right.
But Prussia not merely is not "A
democracy; Prussia was not a state;
Prussia was an army. IL had its
great institutions. if had its great
universities, il had developed its
science. All these were subordinate

That is what we had to deal with
in this old outworl country. 1t was
an army that in recent times had
waged three wars. all of conquest.
and the incessant tramp of it's le-
gions through the streets of Prus-
STA. on the parade grounds Of Prus-
STA, had gone to the Prussian head.
The kaiser, when he witnessed il
on a grand scale at his reviews. got
drunk with the sound of it. He
delivered the law to the world as a
new pastor on Sinai delivering the
law from the thunder clouds.
This is the menace, this is the
oppression from which Europe has
suffered for 80 years. II Slapped the

of those territories shall not cross

has been thrown across Europe for
80 years, in many lands.
But Europe, after enduring this
for generations, made up it's mind
at last that the Hindenburg line
must be drawn along the legitimate
frontiers of Germany.
This has been undoubtedly q
fight for the emancipation of Eu-
rope and the emancipation Of the
world. 1t was at first hard for the
people of America who tried to ap-
preciate that Germany had never in

freedom. But at last they have
daily to endure the same experience.
