The Head of the Nail.
BY r. = PANE

In conformity with dignity and diplo-
matte custom and out Of respect for the
Pope. President Wilson had 10 deliver a
reply Of some thousand words. in which.
il is said, he replies for the Allies as well
as for Uncle Sam. but his whole message
might be condensed into this excerpt
from il:
Can peace be based upon a restitution
# It's German autocracys) power or
upon any word of honor it could pledge
in a treaty"
This Is the answer to peace talk, in a
nutshell
Neither the Pope nor any other hon
est potentate on earth could have the
hardihood to answer this question in the
affirmative.
Our necessity is war. said Teuton
altocvatS. as they b,held the swelling
tide of democratic sentiment in 1914.
Necessity knows no law" said the
German chancellor, as peaceful Belgium
was being violated. and this is the TRAD
icable obsession of German autocracy.
1t is the established principle in the
character of German autocracy. as has
been demonstrated by every act of Ger
many since August, 1914.
With peace now, would there be more
or less democracy in Germany, more or
less necessity for German autocracy TO
unity the people of Germany by the
bloody expediency of war? More, more
and every sane man knows IT,
Given the power. and 10 German autoc-
racy. as has been fully demonstrated by
that element itself, there's no such thing
as word Of honor no such thing as inter-
national right, no such thing as obliga-
ton TO others, no such thing as duty 70
civilization or TO the world.
Can peace be assured by the pledge of
the German autocracy? AS well might
il be asked Can safety be assured by
turning the mad dog loose in the school
yard?
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1917-09-06
And the Band Played On.

italian brass bands, heading the gal
liant infantry. swept across Bainsizza
plateau, playing national airs.
The Austrans poured upon tho
musicians asphyxiating gas shells, but
they kept right on playing and soon the
plateau was free of the enemy.
We rise TO ask Commandcr-in-Ch Chief
Woodrow Wilson if he has given particu-
mar consideration TO the employment Of
American brass bands at the front.
If italian musicians can make Austro-
Hungarians run, there's nothing on legs
that would stand before the average
American brass band.
Maybe our band music would start the
unsteady kultured Germans when moth
ing else would
Naturally, aSphyxiating gas has no de-
terring effect on brass bands.
The horn blower simply sucks il in
and Immediately exudes it az rein
carnated music or secondhand asphyxia-
ton, you don't care much which.
An appropriation for the invulnerable
brass band, Mr.. President!

This Is a Pretty Good
Time To Exercise Kind
Feelings Toward China

We call the attention OF our Allies 10
our newest ally, the republic OF China,
with the suggestion that now is a good
time to act handsome toward her.
The heaviest of China's burdens is
something like $500,O000O0 unpaid in
IDENTITIES from the Boxer war
There always has been doubt about
China's governmental responsibility for
the Boxer rebellion, but when we, along
side of Germany Japan, Russia, France
and Britain, marched up the Hill to Pekin,
that time, and boxed the Boxers, we
marched down again with China's prom
Use to pay $500, O00, 900 to be divided pro
rata among us civilized nations and Ger
many.
Uncle Sam never took his full share
Of this loot.
He took enough TO pay his military
expenses during the famous expedition
and to satisfy the damage claims Of his
citizens, but humanely returned the bulk
Of his indemnity swag TO China, and the
latter invested it in scholarships for
young Cinnamon in our colleges. But
the other parts Of the Boxer indemnity
China has been unable to pay and the
total has run up to approximately half
billion, which she cannot pay. although
she has declared war on Germany and
repudiated Germany's portion.
Now, China cannot pay for the reason
that the Big Business interests Of our
esteemed Allies-Great Britain, France
and Russia--some years ago forced upon
her treaties compelling her TO keep her
customs duties at a level of five per
cent.
We respectfully call the attention Of
our aforesaid esteemed Allies TO the fact
that this matter hath the features and
stencil of frencied not to say barbaric
finance.
Our Allies Big Business interests are
sitting the advantage of low customs
