militarists are willing to give up
Belgium If the allies do not insist
upon the characterization of the Ger

The time Is approaching when the
normal strength Of the allies will be
put to a supreme test. All indica-

alton to use the pope's interCession
for peace, as a means to take the
allies upon a high mountain and offer
them domination over the plains be-
low if they will trade the future
liberalization of the German nation
for material gain.
