even if we are not shouldering guns, is actually in
a state of warfare against Germany. A foe is

ity. Each of us will bear the burden if Germany
wins the war.
It's no use to look at this conflict in an i'm.
personal manner, satisfying our sense of persona
security with the thought that our soldiers are in
the trenches or preparing for the struggle.
This war concerns each of us as individuals
Each Of us has monetary and political rights at
stake, To safeguard them we must fight.
If we are prevented from being at the front
because of physical disability or the necessity OF
taking care of dependents, we must do our bit by
buying Liberty bonds, contributing to the Red
Cross, T. NJ. G. A, assisting in food conservation
and participating in the patriotic movements tc
which our government calls us.
We are in war to compel nation to respect
our rights. If that nation is not brought to its
knees, we will be forced to pass beneath the yoke
and pay captives ransom.
Heavy sacrifices must be made because we are
in war. But transcending all expenditure of hui
man blood and of money is the great issue for
which civilization is making it's last stand. II
Kaiserism wins, democracy is doomed, our liber-
ties are forfeited. If democracy wins, the world
will respond to a new spirit of liberty.

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.
Chancellor Won Hertling

An examination of the extravagant claims OF
Matthias Erzberger leader of the Centrists, that
the appointment of Won Hertling has changed
Germany from an autocracy into democracy,
shows that this far from true. The HoheZollern
iynasty is still firmly in the saddle and the peo-
pie are still subject to the bit and spur of the
Kaiser.
The most conclusive proof against the asser-
ton of Erzberger is the fact that there has been
no change in the government of Germany. The
new chancellor is not the choice of the people or
of the Reichstag The Kaiser appoints the chan
cellor and he is responsible to him and not to the
people.
If the elevation of Won Hertling had been ac-
companied by revolution in the methods OF Ger
man government, if it had included reforms that
would have vested governmental authority in the
people, Erzberger would have had some show for
his claim that democracy had superseded depot
inns.
Won Hertling possesses many admirable quail
tiles. He is not man of blood and iron who be-
leves that the sword has supplanted the dictates
of justice and righteousness. He is resident Of
Munich, a statesman, and an author, Although a
Bavarian, he believes in strong centralized gov
ernmental control vested in a Kaiser, and assert
ing its power in all the departments of the state.
The imperial idea of government is uppermost in
his mind. His hatred of the Pan German mania
is offset by his repeated declarations that the
German people stand behind the Emperor to a
man. Now all of us know what the purpose of
the Imperial German government in this war is,
so that Count Won Hertling's appointment, in
reality presents only the name of new chancel-
lor and does not destroy the object and aim of
Germany.
The situation in Germany is precisely as it
was when Bethmann-Hollweg was chancellor. A
change in names but not in spirit.

most legislation and can block most of that it does
not originate
Therefore, the Bundesrath rules Germany;
the Reichstag only talks about it. Who rules the
Bundesrath? The Kaiser AS King of Prussia
he appoints seventeen of its fifty-four members.
Only fourteen members are enough to block any
amendment to the constitution.
Germans merely go through the signs of gov
erning themselves The new members of the
Reichstag are merely going into a debating So
cety. The Kaiser will still be the real govern
ment of Germany. Germany is not democracy.
Germany is one-man government.
