UNPRECEDENTEDC COLD
HANDlCAPS GERMANY

Berlin, Feb. 3.-Vid London, Feb. A.
The almost unprecedently cold weather
which has prevailed for a fortnight,
causing great suffering and some
deaths in all parts of Germany was
intensified today. The temperature
hung just about at the zero mark in
Berlin and fell far below it in other
places, notably in West Prussia and
in the Rhineland district, where rec
ords for a century were shattered.
A majority of the canals and most of
the rivers all over Germany are frozen
solid, greatly hindering the movement
of coal. Many office buildings in Ber-
lin are gradually running out of coal,
while hotels have closed all rooms not
actually in use.
The military authorities in an effort
to assist in the transportation of fuel
in cities have loaned both soldiers and
horses to help. cope with the shortage
Teams arc so scarce that one Berlin
newspaper requisitioned four elepha q
to haul supply of newsprint paper to
its offices.

noon today the American embassy had
no official confirmation of the rupture
Of relations with Germany. The am

Experienced statesmen remarked
with reference TO diplomatic relations:
What America is giving us is moral
support and fraternal sympathy, which
encourages us to feel certain of final
victory"
The news from the United States has
caused great enthusiasm throughout

New York, Feb. 4.-Officers and

Washington, Feb. president Will

his belief that while there is still hope

on his recent peace speech to tht
senate 1t was not made public. On n
previous occasion Dr. Paul Ritter. the
Swiss minister expressed the deep in

Concerning himself primarily with
steps to be taken in case Germany

KIND OF PEACE.

There has been a recurrence OF
peace talk during the past week or
So Most of it is pitfle For instance
Borah i'm the United States senate
anxiously asks that this government
announce it's peace aims. TO BOrah
the only answer is: Peace will come
when the people of the democracies
of this world decide that they have,
by force, made this earth safe for
them and their children.
Then there is Michaelis, the new
German chancellor, who asks for an
hohorab BILE peace for Germany and
Whipes that the allies are bent on
making hard terms for his country.
1t might just as well he said right
now as later, that Germany is entitled
to no consideration whatever. There
isn't anything honorable or decent
about her to command the respect or
even the mercy of the democratic PEG
pies who are spending their substance
and giving their blood to make the
world safe for liberty and unsafe for
tyranny. .n
Germany prepared for 40 years to
ravage, the world and then exploit it.
with z co5ld-bloo,deedd deliberation she
started this frightful war If anybody
had any doubts about this at the be-
ginning, the overwhelming evidence
has long since made it certainty
For three years Germany has vio'
lated every decency in human life.
For three years she has violated
every law of God and man.
Not in the heat of battle, but with
cool, ordered deIiberation, she has
practiced crimes that are not sur.
passed by the beasts of the jungle.
Nothing has been too barbarous,
nothing too savage.
She has slain the nnocent-the
mother with the babe on her breast,
the doddering old man.: the child at
its play.
Her thirst for blood has been in.
satiabIe; women have been her first
choice as victims. She has murdered
robbed, burned, devastated without
reason, heartiessIy. History cites
nothing in the dark ages that is worse
than the German record in the lands
she has overrun--a record so dread.
full so shocking, that to the end OF
time history will tell Of it all with
horror.
An honorable compromise peace for
this dastardly outlaw among nations
A thousand times NO!
A dishonorable peace is the best
that Germany is entitled to. 1t is the
only kind of peace she can under,
stand. Reprisals she would understand
better, but democfacies are civilized
people, and they cannot descend to
such depths of infamy.
