GERMANY'S MASSES.
baskerville Citizen.)

1t is singular but nevertheless true
that no part of President Wilson's
famous war speech before congress
went deeper into German junkerism
that that section wherein the Ameri-
can president drew a sharp distinc-
tion between the German government
and the German people. 1t will be
recalled that President Wilson stated
in substance that the United States
had no grievance against the German
people; that this country raised its
case against the German government,
a distinction most cleverly drawn,
and certainly founded on fact.
1t has been long known in this
country that the people of Germany
had no heart in the war at the very
beginning; that the struggle was pre-
cipitated without their knowledge
and certainly without their sanction.
Now we are told that the people of
Germany as a whole are utterly sick
of war which so completely skaters
all dreams of sweeping and brilliant
triumph. There is every reason to
believe, too, that the world has only
a half knowledge of the real food con-
ditions in Germany, and if the people
hold out at all it is not because of
the vision of victory, but for the rea-
son that they hope and pray that the
day of democratic era will dawn,
and that the sun of autocracy will set
forever. Indeed, did not the German
autocracy have so complete hold on
the popular throat, the salvation of
the German people would have been
already achieved in a revolution of
even greater moment than that which
has written new page of history in
{ Bat the war party at Berlin is still
able to hypnotize, to fool and deceive
the German masses. When one illu-
sion fades another quickly takes it's
place, and they are led to believe that
final triumph is only matter of few
months. Visions of victory are for
ever held before the German vision,
and ever there is held out the hope
that Russia will not only make a sep
arate peace, but will be faithless to
her compact with the allies and will
throw in her lot with kaiserism. More
than that, the German people have
been steadily informed that the entry
of the United States into the war is a
matter of little consequence; that her
participation will have little or no eff
feet on the final outcome, and that as
far as war purposes are concerning,
the American republic is bowling
farce. All of which the German peo-
pie implicitly believe, but it is reason
able to assume that the day of en-
lightenment is not far off; that the
fallacy and weakness of autocratic
government will be so thoroughly
brought home to the masses in Ger
many that they will rise in their might
and forever strike from themselves
the shackles of slavery.

In the army or navy.
One argument advanced for the
insurance plan is that it would inn
prove the morale of the troops. The
plan would provide also insurance of
partial or total disability. In case of
death the insurance would be paid
in instalments whose amount would
be determined by the government
board. Government officials are con-
vinced the best way to dispose of the
pension problem is to meet it before
hand.
Many officials hold that since many
will be drawn from occupations in
which government and State laws
compel compensation for injury and
death the government can not sub
ject a man to more risk than he en-
counters in his usual occupation and
not make compensation if he is
wounded or killed.
The success of the government war
risk insurance bureau, which has
paid out large sums for ship losses,
is pointed to as argument that the
government itself can bear the risk.
The $4,000 insurance given free
would be direct loss, but pensions,
it is argued, would be much more
costly in the long run.

TO INSURE SOLDIERS.
Government COntemplates Issuing
Free Policies for $4,000 on
Each Life.

Washington, June 2.-Plans for is
suing $4,000 free government insur-
ance on the life of every American
soldier and sailor during the war in
lieu of pension arrangements will be
taken up next week by the council of
national defense. A report prepared
by Assistant Secretary Sweet of the
commerce department, ready to be
submitted, urges that the insurance
be provided through legislation be-
France.
The defense council took up the
question some weeks ago and turned
the whole subject over to the depart
nent of commerce for investigation.
The report ready offers a leng list of
arguments showing the advantage of
working out compensation system
before American lives are lost in the
war.
The plans as prepared provide for
flat insurance of $4,000 on the life
| of every officer and private in the
military and naval service to be paid
to his benefciaries without premius.
There would be provision for system
of insurance by which officers and
men desiring to do so could take out
amounts higher than the $4,000 free
policy by paying premiums at peace
rates.
Insurance companies, it is said, are
ready to approve the scheme if as
sured the government will not con-
tlnue in the insurance business after
the war. War hazards are so great
that few companies are anxious to
insure soldiers and sailors except at
high premiums.
At the end Of the war the govern
ment, 1T Is suggested, could turn over
to insurance companies it's premium
war business, dropping the fiat $4,000
policies on all who leave the service
