German Americans, but for every American.
Elsewhere in the same edition the I'LL
nois Stats -Zeitung" urged its readers Ito
communicate to President Wilson their
own views upon the questions of the day.
To frighten America into withdrawal
from the war the "Westliche Post" of St.
Louis, regales the public with the follow
ing English article;
"For three years France has borne the
brunt Of the war, and in that time she mas
exhausted herself. Now America is taking
her turn in the same service. We are prom
ised that it will be long war; that we must
he prepared for a fve-yesr conflict. During
all this time we are to send our wealth 10
Furone and our men to the slaughter pens OF
its battlehelds
"Tonp before those FIVE years are passed
will not America find herself equally ex-
bausted? Will not we have just as many
despairing women-hungry children-as
France has now?
"And when. like unhappy France, We shall
, for old for help TO bear our burden, wh }
will answer?
"Wiu England provide also friend for US
when. drained Of all our resources pereaVeu
of our men, burdened by taxes and weighted
down by sorrows, the war peril may be
hrougbt to our own shores?"
Americas ally is attacked by the same
paper in the following editorial;
"Tbc French Canadians have clear vision'
and they have understood that the war was
;nstgsted by England and is being waged
,or her benefit. At the same time they re-
membered that England is not the country
,bev came from. The prediction with whicn
tho English have always pushed the Cana
disns into the first line Of battle and lett
,bero the honor TO bleed TO death for hihs
George has added to the universal eniigh'eh-
ment." -. L.
The British fleet is held up to derision oy

in waters where not one has ever oeen

The German-American Press

Under the caption "Brusiloff's Repen-
tarce" +" the "Illinois Staats-Zeitung" de-
rides the present Russian offensive IN
Calicia. saving: "The Russians them
selves give the lie to the contention tnat
thew still indulge in lunatic paroXysms.
THE "Mississippi-Blatter," of st. LOUIS
l. attacks the Russian government for
renewing the fighting on the Gallclan
front. 1t says: "The sacrificing OF
masses in the course of the Galician OF
fonsive looks exactly as if the Russian
government likes to see annihilated cer-
tain regiments. If that is the purpose
it is attained"
Der Deutsche Correspondent" Of Baltl-
more. carries on its front page the state
ment: "This is an American newspaper
published in the German language 10
nrove its "Americanism" the paper devoted
nearly four and half columns to an ar
ticle Turkish Finances" by DR.. I. r.
Wiedemann. vice-director of the Com
pnonie d'erploitation des chemns dc 'er
Orientaur. This article, printed under
faring headline, says that Germany was
true to her obligations to her Osmanlc ally
and that Turkey will be financially well OIL
after the restoration of peace. The same
paper informs its readers in other editions
that the enemies of the Central Powers
only this country has not been mentioned
are exhausted and practically bankrupt
To create discontentment with the con-
scription. the Louisville Anzelger' vent
ures to say
zone expected that any fraud would be
;mnossible because the regulation cards are
,ent TO Washington, where numbers, not
names. will be drafted. But now it is re-
norted that the United States authorities
have discovered base fraud. 1t is said that
Young men able to pay the price have re-
ceived their registration cards for show but
their names were not entered in the lists. 10
wba. extent this fraud has been perpetrated

New-York tribune., 1917-07-15

nress the "Staats-Zeitung" resented re-
Gently any attempt to curb the activities OF
the American Socialists who are opposed
to the war and conscription, and were as
sailed and derided by the non-Soclallst Ger-
man language press as long as the SOCIALIST
nropaganda did not fit into the purposes OF
the Kaiser.
Although many times publicly exposed
for its pro-German activity, the New
Yorker Herold" musters the audacity 10
say:
Sentiment for proceeding against the
American newspapers published in the Ter
man language is fostered, although THESE
notifications have honestly attempted TO 90
,beir hit 10 preserve peace and order among
our very mixed population
The "Deutsches Journal" expects the
American government will consider that an
embargo against Holland would De an in
;ustice. and not submit neutrals to an un-
fair pressure. OF course, The Netherlands
would then be able to continue exporting
foodstuffs to Germany.

The German Accent in the
Neutral Voice

IPWAR has a logic it is logic all its
own, and it is one of the drawbacks
Of neutrality to foster belief that
,,r to any degree exercises the natural
no-al logic of peace. The United States,
Jovly drawn as a protagonist into the
Asstre Of violent events, has had its own
troubles realizing the difference between
frbting and watching others fight. But
ne neutral nations of Europe, permanent
" residing at the edge of the confagra-
lion. and with no temptation at any time
10 believe they could resist or escape the
troubles besetting the world around them,
suddenly show a panied surprise at the
probable injury which an American food
embargo will put upon them. Possibly
hs is only the habitual moan the de-
vsssi neutral has learned to give at
al nm of the thumbscrew on the wise
q Egrope. But American newspaper
,p,cn appears to be agreed that we
as.n not be above seeking hidden Teu-
i,,e accent in the neutral voice of pro-
a.
We have been feeding the German

That U-boat story now appears to have

Russia-and a Germany
at Bay

-HERE is evident in much of the COM
i ment on recent events in Russia and
in Berlin a sense of impending change, 4
general implication that the fate which
sways the destiny Of nations has more
nearly disclosed its hand than ever before.
There is tendency, too, to find IN the
Russian return to coherent power de-
mand for recognition and declaration OF
aims on the part of the United States.
"The New York Call" which speaks for
the radicals, cannot believe that Russia
rives itself to war merely for the selfish
aims of an Allied capitalistic conquest,
limiting at some dream of wider void
democracy Russia sees itself bringing to
fulflment. Even "The Philadelphia En-
ouirer" warns that the matter of conquest
and indemnity is still far from settled and
saws the time is at hand when this coun-
trv will have to declare itself on these
important issues" Only an expression
coming from the people themselves will be
entitled to consideration, "The Enquirer
continues, unless our proclaimed purposes
are a deception and our avowals OF altru-
ism mere sordid lies" "The Chicago
Tribune" finds in all these events proof
that war is entering on a new phase Inc
chief effect of the Russian offensive, &C.
cording to "The Tribune" is on Germany,
where, despite all obscuring reports. there
must be dawning realization that Russia
IS in to stay. The crisis in the ReichsIag
meanwhile draws "The Tribune to Ike

New-York tribune., 1917-07-15

"HE political throes through which
Germany is passing all but monopo-
n lized the interest of the New York
editorial writer's for the last several days.
Little disagreement is found among them
in their reactions to the big Hohenzollern
crisis, yet there are shades of difference.
Under the caption "Germany's New Peace
Party" "The Sun" says:
"The Socialists in Germany. have spoken
for peace at times when the Kaiser thought
it desirable; have acted as his agents in the
attempt to lure the Russians into the Stock
holm BOBBY trap, and have tugged manfully
on wires that ran into Paris through Geneva.
Their peace activities formed a we'll organ
lied part of the German campaign. Now
however. comes one who belongs to the Cath
olic Centrist party, powerful in South Ger
many. and who demands frank abandon
ment of the policy of retaining conquests
Erzberger, who speaks thus, occupies an I'M
portant position in his party and is an I'M
portant figure in the Reichstag. His express
sions are taken by German newspapers as
direct attack on his nations war policy. Such
an attack from such quarter means more
than any amount Of the recent Socialist out
cry
THE World" gives this Interpretation Of
the matter:
"Out OF all the conflicting and ncon-
elusive reports in regard to the German
crisis one fact stands forth clearly and dis
tinctly. The Imperial Government is now or
the defensive at home, and is compelled TO
deal in concrete fashion with the growing
dissatisfaction of the German people.
The nomination of an official scapegoat IN
the person of the Chancellor, or DR.. thinner
mann. or Helferich, or the adoption OF
electoral reforms, can have only temporary
effect. for no power exists by which the Ger
man government give to the German
people the one thing that is necessary to re-
establish the former solidarity. Victory
alone can do that and victory is no longer
possible.

RusSia's Answer

n PEN-EYED admiration of New Rus
~ sia is disclosed in a number of edi-
torial pages. "The Globe" says:
Russia has furnished an answer TO the
doubts of the men Of little faith, who feared
she lacked the intelligence to be true to the
principles of her great revolution.
"Her soldiers are marching on. With new
ardor the Russian people have thrown them
selves into the task Of helping them march.
Russia's goal is peace peace Of Justice
and she is now following the only path by
which it can be attained"
"The Evening Suns" enthusiasm runs
thus:
Major General Hugh l. Scott announces
that the Russian army is going TO fght.' In
that brief phrase he tells Americans precise
ly what they wish most 10 know in the whole
Russian situation. 1t is great news, gathered
in the right time by a manon whose obser-
vations past experience justifes reliance"
The Evening Post" estimates the ef-
feet upon Germany of this Russian man.
Hesitation and il says:
"It would be undertaking the resourceful-
ness Of Germany military leadership 10 sup
pose that Russia's preparations could have
been carried on without the knowledge Of
the enemy. Yet while Hindenburg may have
anticipated the Russian advance. he did not
correctly estimate the strength Of the at
tack"

Washington, Feb. 13.-By quickly
and sharply replying to Germany's
suggestion for negotiations tending
to avoid war, Pres. Wilson, it was
declared today, has handed out hint
to organized pacifsts and propagan-
dists.
Those close. to president intimated
that he has shown those working
against war are labOring at wrong
end of trouble. If there is an armed
clash, president has emphaticaIly
said5 blame will rest on shoulders of
imperial government. Way to peace,
he declared yesterday, is for Germany
to withdraw her U-boat decree.
Hence, officials say, pacifsts and
prOpagandists should bring their
pressure to bear on kaiser.

AMERICAN RELIEF WORKERS

London, Feb. 13.-America's active
work of directing Belgian relief is

except a very few leaders, are about
to be withdrawn. Brand Whitlock,
American minister to Belgium, is per-
mitted to remain with Germany's dis
tinct provision that he is to, have no
diplomatic standing.
Withdrawal of American workers
from Belgium and France does not
mean that American commission for
relief will discontinue its work in the
United States. Actual administration
of work, however, will be turned over
