should be taught how to manage and

she grows older let the mantle grad

home OF her own she will not feel at

WRITES REPLY TO
PASTORS STATEMENT
Asserts Germany'S Conduct
Cannot Be Excused by
American People.
Mishawaka, March 81. 1917.
Editor The News Times:

Editor The News-Times:
sir.-In a recent issue OF your
paper there appeared an article
written by Rev. Otto Turk Of this
city. It had appeared 70 the writer
Of this article that some answer to
the foregoing statement should be
made. and in the hope that anoth-
or might take hold OF the oppOrtu-
nifty ne has refrained from doing
90. However, since no one has ap-
peared I cannot help but feel a
measure OF responsibility IN this
matter. and hence the following re-
ply.
I wish IL distinctly understood
that the writer Of this communica-
ton speaks only as an American
citizen, as one who has tried earn
estly 10 be a student OF the whole
situation, and who has long been
an advocate OF fair play"
Allegiance to- the u. s.
7 cannot refrain from cOngratu-
lating the reverend gentleman for
his expression OF Americanism, COR
he can feel assured that in these
times Of international strife and
peril we have no room for others
than those who would be Ameri-
cans. first. last, and all the time.
This is no time for uncertain sounds
IN OF country. and he who would
espouse the cause Of a belligerent
nation before the land in which he
is living is guilty Of a serious Of
Tense. However, il would have been
much wiser IL the learned divine
had closed his statement with his
announcement Of allegiance to the
United States; IL would have left no
room for a reply. Instead Of en-
ploying this course, ne endeavored
TO justify and excuse the German
government in all its acts by the
policy Of England. Surely. it es-
capped the mind OF the writer that
this was a matter entirely between
this country and Germany. and Ger
many cannot be excused on the
ground that England has treated us
unfairly If England has assumed
this policy. then our government
can and will attend 10 that, but in
no wise can the barbarous custom
OF Germany in its attitude toward
the United States be pardoned be-
IS use of the attitude Of another ma
ton.
GcrmaBy's History i'm the War.
10 has been surprising 70 me that
we have endured with such unlimit-
ed patience the uncivilized policy
of Germany so long. What has been
the history of Germany in this war
We are all too familiar with its rec
ord Well do we remember it's
brutal. ravaging and frightfuI pro-
gram OF destruction in Belgium.
Why? Because a little nation ly-
ing at the very door OF Germany
wished above all costs 10 preserve
its neutrality. Behold the monster
as he sweeps down upon a peace
ful people in his mad rush for con-
quest and empire. He has con-
quered. subjUgated. and il seems
that suerly that would be sufficient
But the war monster must have
more. Consequently. millions OF
dollars m"st be confiscated, indem-
mites inconcei vable heaped upon
them. But still he is not satisfied.
To meet his demands one of the
most picturesque countries in the
world must be laid in ruins, and its
inhabitants driven into cruel bond
age and slavery. The world will not
soon forget the atrocities OF Ger
many committed against Belgium,
