Henry p. Scott, chairman for New
Castle county for the Fourth Liberty
Loan campaign. today sent the following
letter to the editor of Every Evening, for
the aid this and other newspapers rem
dered in the campaign. The letter follows;
Editor Every Evening; 10 the
splendid support of the newspapers,
against the severe odds under which we
were all laboring as q result OF the IN
fluenza epidemic, is due much OF the
success of the Fourth Liberty Loan cam
paign, just closed.
mo better evidence of the important
part played by the papers Is needed than
the rapid growth Of the Special Honor
List. which in a few days Increased from
a few names to- thousands.
Our thanks are due To the people oi
this community for so nobly responding
10 the commit 'e's appeal for additional
to take the place OF those
that would have been made by the sui
ferers. directly or indirectly from the dc

But after all it was the newspapers
that made such list and the vast sum
realized in this way possible. Their loyal

Germany will afford the best concrete
evidence Of her unequivocal ac-
ceptance Of the terms and prin-
ciples Of peace from which the whole
action proceeds.

self lacking in candor did he not
point out in the fr4nkest possible
terms the reason why extraordinary
safeguards must be demanded. Sig
nihcant and important as the CON

which arc spoken of by the German
foreign SECRETARY in his note Of the
twentieth Of October, it does not ap-
pear that the principle Of q gov
ernnent responsible to the German
people has vet been fully worked out
or that any guarantees either exist or
are IN contemplation that the aItera-
tIons OF principle and ri plsetice
now partially agreed upon will be
permanent. Moreover. it does not
appear that the heart of the present
difficulty has been reached. It may
be that future wars have been
brought under the control of the Ger
man people but the present war has
not been, and IL IS with the present
war that we are dealing It is evi-
dent that the German people have no
means of commanding the acuuIes-
cence of the military authorities of
the empire In the popular will, that
the power Of the King OF Prussia TO
control the policy of the empire is
unimpalred. that the determining
Initiative still remains with those
who have hitherto been the masters
OF Germany
Feeling that the whole peace of
the world depends now on plain
speaking and straightforward action,
the President deems it his duty TO
say, without any attempt TO soften
what may seem harsh words, that
the nations of the world do not
and cannot trust the word OF those
who have hitherto been the masters
of German policy, and to point out
once more than IN concluding peace
and attempting 10 undo the infinite
injuries and lnIustlces OF this war
the government OF the United States
