Nov that war is upon us in full

should be wasted. Every possible piece
of ground should be made to bear its
share of grain, fruit or vegetables. If
every family will begin a systematic
saving much will be accomplished
In the meantime we are all Amer

a million vantage points brings the
thrill to every heart. 1t is our flag.
We shall follow it upon the furtherest

it will fall. Our patriotism will burn
with fervent heat. America will mean
vastly more TO us than ever before; and
may England and France and Russia

At same time three mOmentOus
developments have come to improve
what some officials insist are posi-
bilities of peaceful outcome:
Germany has yielded to this cOun-
try's demands, made few hours be-
fore break in relations came, for i'm
mediate release of Americans held
prisoners in Germany.
Pres. Wilson has asked all neu-
trails to follow his course in severing
diplomatic relations with Germany,
believing such action will make for
peace of the world.
Germany has met the full demands
of international law in the HOUsa-
tonic case.
It is not expected that break with
Austria will come unless Austria her
self precipitates it.
Whether it be for peace or war,
present situation with Germany
should develop within few days.
Within that time the attitude of most
neutral nations will be known and
whether or not Germany intends to
halt or continue campaigns Pres.
Wilson calls ruthless.
Attention of the government to-
day centers upOnNReUtraI nations.
The president has indicated clear
ly that his move in breaking relations
with Germany is designed to lead
neutral countries in a great moral
effort, backed by arms if necessary,
to enforce peace.
Owing to fact that this govern
meHt has always stood for indidivuaI
or parallel" action instead of joint
action, there are unofficial indica-
tiOns that many countries will now
decline to enter a parallel effort to
force Germany into modifying her
submarine war.

Because of them the state depart
ment has withheld the text of the
Austrian note and has refused all
comment regarding it further than to
say it had a communication from
Austria. The purpOrt of the note has
been generally understood, but con-
fiTmatiOn Of its exact nature was not
available until today.
Because of it's interest in caring for
thousands of prisoners, this govern
ment is anxious to continue relations
with Austria if hOnorabIy possible. It
is trying to get Austria to relax her
position.
A Berlin wireless message picked
up in London saying that negOtia-
lions were proceeding for a change
in U-bOat warfare may refer to the
dealings between the United States
and Austria.
Austria as the result of a COM
municatiOn from the state depart
ment may be taking up with the Ger
man government the whole subma-
Tine policy, or at least Withdrawing
her own position.
Authorities hold that Austria could
withdraw her support of Germany
logically, inasmuch as Austrian sub
marines never had operated to any
extent in the main part of the Ger
man barred area, though the barred
zone would apply to Austrian subma-
rines in the Mediterranean.
