Our Only Terms

The only suitable answer to Won HurtEngs peace speech is to
speed up the shipment of men and munitions to France.
To declare that Germany does not intend to keep Belgium, but
is merely holding the country a a pawn to be used to bargain with
at the peace table is only adding insult to injury.
What right has Germany got to hold Belgium for any purpose3
Belgium had nothing to do with the quarrel that has embrofed
the whole world in war. She was treaeherOudy invaded in violation
Of treaties that all civilized nations hold sacred. She has been ruth
lessly trodden under foot by a cruel slave master, her cities laid in
ruins and her people murdered.
Now the lawless william responsible for all this would use Bel
gum to bargain over.
Germany would doubtless be willing to give up that to which
she has no right to if she could be permitted to retain her gains in
Russian and the East-gains that have been made in the same treach-
erous, undetermined manner that is SO characteristic Of all her
diplomacy.
A nation that would enter into any bartering under such condi
tions would stand before the civilized world as black as is Germany
herself.
AS for Germany holding Belgium to bargain over, there are l,
100000 Americans in France today and millions more to follow until
the kaiser and all his motley crew are driven out of Belgium and
have retired from Serbia and Roumania as we'll.
When these nations are free of the Hunnish hor9es peace negoha-
tons can begin, not one day before.
Just as our soldiers on the battefelds have had their experience
with the cowardly cry of "kamerad" only to have the despicable ours
attempt to stab in the back those who would show them mercy, so
have the spectacle people of the world come to realize the utter I'M
reliability of anything coming from the political leaders in Germany.
Bargain over Belgiumi
Not on your life.
Our terms are UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER.
