announcement, withheld until the final
moment. is only an announcement.
What is the general policy which our
delegates will put forward for America at
the Paris conference? Our Secretary OF
State has given US no information, save
that there will be an effort to unity dis
sent;ent elements But there are hints
that a new method Of conducting the war
against Germany will be proposed by u.s.
What is that method? We cannot, as can
the English public, look direct to our gov
eminent for the explanation; nevertheieSS'
the slant of our policy has been sug-
pested. For while the Paris conference
has not been named, there has been DELL
rite effort TO prepare public opinion LOT
the part it is proposed we shall play. Inc
New Republic" which is the nearest we
have to vehicle for official views, has IN
terpreted in series Of articles ana eur
torials during the last month what III gen
eraI is 10 be laid down as the American
policy. "The Philadelphia Ledger
Washington correspondent, blunt anu
Trustworthy observer, quite independently
analyzing the governments attitude on
the looming problems Of the war, outlines
substantially the same policy.
Briefly that policy is this: The war
must be won, and won very soon' ny
diplomatic .means, not by sheer lighting
alone. The hope Of military decision
which obscsscs Europe must be laio
aside; IL the chief effort should continue

Lansing has pointed out, grave dissenslon
among the Allies; that dissension Will
continue so long as the miltarists, so long
as the old European order, govern the
conduct Of this war. The New World or

the direction Of whomsoever. II America
has the better method, then let that method
be imposed. But we believe that the
American people, little informed as they
are in the facts Of this war, are tending
to a conviction which would consider the
endeavor to divide energy between mill
tary and diplomatic activity as the
wrong method. We believe that a
great many observers not militarily ex-
pert have sensed the futility Of .
peace hope that looks for Germany TO
fall from internal weaknesses. "A lesson
must be burned into the heart and memory
of every Prussian before the war is done
WITH" said Lloyd George, and the state
ment is not rhetorical. To loosen Austria
from the Alliance, to pry away Bulgaria,
TO penetrate Germany herself with propa-
ganda until the Socialists effect revolu-
ton, would end this war. There is no
doubt about that. But it would not keep
i ended; it would burn no lesson into the
Prussian heart. If, fifty years from now,
the German government could show that
the only reason it did not conquer the world
in 1917 was because Of the bad faith Of its
allies or the treachery Of its radical con-
stituents, it could persuade itself and its
people that by avoiding these errors tho
next war could be made successful.
The war will be ended by diplomacy, but
1t will be won by fighting. There will Re
need for skilful negotiations, but only
after a military decision has afforded
basis for discussion. To talk of anything
but fighting until fighting has done its AL
lotted task, is seriously to impair our
spirit and dangerously 10 detract from ouq(
energy. We believe that were the ques'
ton put, great and growing number o.
the American people would subscribe tsI
this view. We believe that o large and
particularly American section Of this
nation is going to be both surprised and
puzzled TO learn how America has bee
represented ut the Paris Conferences

KerenSky's Appeal

CTARTLING news from Russia appears
- in Kerensky's Macedonian cry for
relief" in which the Premier says that
Russia, entering the war early, is nearly
spent, and that the other Allies must now
bear her burden. Where is the British
fleet now that the German feet is out in
the Baltic?" is the question of the Russian
public, according to Kerensky. The United
States Immediately comes to Russia's re-
lief with a loan of $31 100000 and six
ships for supplies.

HerfIing

CONTRADICTORY statements appear
~ concerning the new German Chan
cellor. On the one hand he is said to be
acceptable only to small following, that
the progressive elements have been cheated
in Hertling, that the Conservatives and
Socialists are especially ofish toward him.
Other reports hail his accession as long
step toward parliamentarism and demo
cratic Germany. Herr Erzberger is quoted
as saying that while the troops OF the
Central Allies were forcing their way
across the Tagliamento, Germany, at home'
quietly crossed the political Rubicon and in
the space of five days changed from an
autocracy into a democracy" The pres
ence of Count Czernin in Berlin may

pears to be the beginning of peace drive
famed by the Italian crash. But in the
House of Commons Asquith is sustained
by a large majority in refusing the de-
mands of the Liberals, insisting that Eng
lands aims are not imperialistic.
In France the story appears that Ger
many recently offered peace to the Allies
on terms of restored Belgium, Alsace
Lorraine returned and Trieste for Italy
if Germany were given certain rights in
Russia. These terms were refused on the
ground that acceptance would sell out
Russia.
