commit themselves. Eighty-four SEN

his talents are so various and SO daz-
zling that the government could not

remain true that those talents should
be employed in some other place than
that particular craftsmanship; that that
is one place which he cannot possibly
occupy with success and honor. He
cannot be the administrations mouth =
piece. for he typifies, more than any
other senator, even LaFollette himself
the opposition to the very foreign pol
icy of which his position requires him

GERMANS BITTER
IN CRITICISM OF
WILSON
America Pictured by Ber-
liner Tageblatt as "Glee-
full Beneficiary at the
Deathbed of European
Civilization"

Berlin, March (Wireless)-Pic
turing America as the "gleeful benefl-
ciary at the deathbed of European CIV
ilization," the Berliner Tageblatt to-
day In an editorial viciously assailed
President Wilson's abrupt change Of
front from his speech of December to
his present attitude, particularly as
revealed in his inaugural address.
None Of the state leaders of bellig-
erent countries or of neutrals have
spoken as often as President Wilson,"
the newspaper asserted. Although
America is the least affected by the
war, is gleeful beneficiary at the
deathbed of European civilization.
Wilson's intention to change the idea
of neutrality is evident from each sue
cessive speech, in spite of the tradition
of Americas reserve from having a
I hand In the developments of the war.
SAYS HE DESERTS MONROE.
This is proved in the last speech OF
the man who has deserted Monroe's po-
sition; by his statement that America
may possibly be forced to take an ac-
tive part in the fight
at is difficult to answer the ques-
ton Of what Wilson wants with war
| because Wilson's chief opponent, and
one of the persons supposed to be best
informed, says America is in danger
of being dragged into the war without
reasons"
NO TIME FOR ARGUMENTS.
Continuing, the Tageblatt asserted
the time has passed for arguments"
"1t is not -.ecessary," the editorial
added, ito state Wilson's tendencies in
enduring from one party what he in
tends to avenge against another, as a
minimum right and principle of free
DOM
"Wilson must remember his peace
program found more sympathy in Ger
many than in the entente countries"
To-day Wilson may succeed in car
rying a great people with him and In
making them believe the ideals and
happiness of all people is threatened
| by Germany, but he who does this
ought not to put the principle fair
dealing at the head of his demands"
The Tageblatt's reference to Wilson's
chief opponent" evidently means for
mer Secretary of State William Jen-
nings Bryan, who has frequently been
quoted substantially as stated in the
editorial above.
