GERMANY'S ONLY WAY OUT
 IS TO OPPOSE THE KAISER

"The Only Way Out" is the title of Ba varian pamphlet which has reached Rome via Zurich, according to a dispatch from the Italian capital It Is published in Mu nich under the auspices of the "Associatlor of Male Citizens of Southern Germany" The thesis developed by the pseudonymous au thor Heinrich Sieger," IS that Germany only practical course to avert final rum leE in the dethronement of the house of Hoh enzollern. Reviewing the actual military situation, the author likens the series o1 German victories to those of hlng Pyrrhus
 "They are," he aays, purely ephemeraI and nobody can be more keenly alive to thi' fact than General Hindenburg, whose colos sal forwerd movement on the eastern front has merely succeeded in shifting the scene of trench warfare a few hundred miles, anc whose war-worn forces for long tune ner and impotent in front of Riga and Duna .2rg. still have before them vast untroddeI stretches of the Russian empire.
 'Germany cries, We will fight till the last man, and when no more men are lett we will enroll the women and old men,
 1t the people themselves are conVlncec hat no maneuver of this sort can avert ultimate defeat, which at thls moment E mathematically certain"
 The pamphleteer regards Germany's pres ant situation as identical with that ot the French empire a century ago. When the crucial moment comes will William IL, he asks, stand prepared to sacrifice himself fol the German people as did Napoleon?
 "Even as France avoided terrible peace conditions by deposlnig Napoleon" he says "so Germany faced by the vision of the final catastrophe, will one day be driven tc decide on deposng the king of Prussia 1T favor of the Bavarlan ruler. The house ci Wittelsbach has fulfilled all its duties to the empire Its escutcheon IS un2taned, and IT this war it has won its laurels again anC again. Not only would the German empire under the Wittelsbach dynasty offer the necessary security for European peace, but also the possibility of realizing still greater Germany'
 The writer foresees that Britain, France and Russia will never consent to negotiate reace with the present kaiser or the German crown prince whereas, with the disappear ancp of the Hohcnzollcrn5 1t will becom, possible for Germany to promote and cemen cordial relations with England, as has hap pened in Britains relations with France"
 The Zurich Volksrecht says the documen hee summarized voices a state of op,mo; very widely diffused in Bavaria, and Tn ,leed, almost everywhere in southern Ger many, as well as in influential middle claS:
 
 Allies Propose to Eliminate Kaiser
 A New York dispatch says that peace terms which the allies did not give to Pres: dent Wilson provide for the literal el!mina ton of the kaiser as the absolute ruler C. Germany according to Dr. Morton Prince of Boston who Sald in an address undc' the auspices of the American fund fol French wounded at the Old Colony Clut building that 'the German kaiser, the felol and bully of Europe, must go."
 Dr. Prince, who Is an uncle of Norman Prince killed while serving as an aviator for France, said that this country had muci at sake. because the theory of governmen back of those fighting the kaiser was th' same as that on which this government wa founded That the allies knew that German milltarsm must be crushed, or the battlt would have to be fought all over again, ht gGve as the motive of their determination not to make peace until the kaiser and wha he stood for were in the dust. He predicted exile for the kaiser, or establishment T Germany of democratic government tha would destroy Wilhelm's autocratlc power.
 The allies hope to rid the world of tht house of Hohenzollern," he said, land i they do they will get the thanks of the world. The determination to do this i one of the details of their peace terms whlct they told President Wilson could not now be known.
 What chance is there about confer ence table for the kaiser to eliminate him 7elf? Here is the reason why negotiation: cannot now end the war
 Tt is all too easy to question the lega right of the allies to dictate what kind oi government there is to be within Germany Yet there was no legal right for the North to free the slaves in the South. That wa: done because slavery is moral wrong anc so the Prussian milItarIsm must go, ever within Germany, because 1t is a mora wrong. And it is against this moral wrong that the alies-I mean the people in thost nations-are willing to make any sacrifice to win. It is task for the people of the world, and the people should be gratefu to the allies in their fight for permanent peace And we in America should see that we do not hamper their purpose.
