Won PAYER PAINTS
GERMANY AS MARTYR.
"FATHERLAND" ATT ACKED
BY ALLIED NATIONS, HE
DECLARES

Amstcdam, Thursday, Sept. IA
Reiterating that Germany "as the
innocent and attacked party" in the
war had 4 right to demand indem-
MITIGATION, Fredrick Won Payer, the
German imperial vice-chancellor, in
his speech yesterday at Stuttgart,
said that 1--WE prefer on calm reflec-
ton and even with our own
favorable military situation, to aban-
don this idea"
Turning to the question of the
occupied territories, the vicc-chan-
cellor said that as preliminary con-
di,ion Of peace for Germany and her
allies, those nations must have all
their prc-war possessions, including
the German colonies restored.
Then Germany, he declared, could
return the occupied regions, and
give back Belgium, without incum-
brancc, provided no other state was
more favorably placed in relation to
Belgium than was Germany.
He stated Germany would not
submit to the entente powers for
approval or alteration OF the peace
treaties which Germany had signed
with the Ukraine, and Rumania.
Herr Won Payer considered that
this might mean disappointment and
remuneration to Germany's enemies,
which would be almost equivalent
20 a confession OF defeat as they
have made the destruction on and
political shattering OF MS and our
allies their aim
Russia, he thought, might have
remained in capable existence ii she
had granted tolerable conditions to
the enslaved Russians by federal
constitution.
"She collapsed the vice-chancel-
lor said, because she could not
maintain internal cohesion. Our
victories and those OF our allies now
have given the subjects OF that col
ossal empire an opportunity to lber-
ate themselves.
The vice-chancellor said it was
unthinkabe that Germany would
contribute to the restoration OF the
deSpotic Russian empire, which, by
its mere existence, always menaced
the world.
Would Hold Russia.
1--WE cannot hand over Poland
to Russiahe added, nor can we as
sist in having Finland again placed
under the Russian yoke. We can
not leave to their fate the border
states which lie on the German
frontier and the Baltic to be sub
iected against their will to Russian
imperialism or thrown into the
perils OF civil war and anarchy.
I'm fact, these states having come
to an understanding with us as
those most nearly interest can be in
advantage to the world, and we can
never permit any one to meddle with
us in this matter from the stand
point of the present European bal
ance OF power or rather British
predominance."

for its approval or alteration, the

Australia Prepares for Soldiers.

Australia has, from the first, grap-
pied with the question of providing
for her soldiers after the war with
commendable energy and forethought.
For some months the Australian
patriation fund has been devoting it.
self to the consideration and devel-
opment Of various plans whilst many
practical steps have been taken by
individuals and communities toward
the formation of definite settlement
schemes, says a correspondent. The
state government Of New South Wales
has set aside special areas for cultiva-
ton by returned soldiers. These eff
forts were supplemented by the gen.
erosity of one landowner who gave a
tract Of land amounting to thousands
Of acres for that purpose. Australia's
first need Is population and the COM
monwealth will have an opportunity,
after the war. not only to supply her
own need but also to do great serv-
ice to the labor market by affording
that "room for adjustment" which it
will need. The federal government
has already promised $10.O00,00O for
the work and has pledged itself to
raise an additional $50. 100000 in the
future.

EFFECTS OF NOTED BATTLES
Probable Results II Outcome Had Been
Different, Explained In Book by
English Writer Years Ago.

About 60 years ago an English
writer, Sir Edward Greasy, published a
book which he called ''The Fifteen De-
cisive Battles of the World" His pur-
pose was to describe those great mill
tary events which have had the great
est influence upon human history.
Each battle described, had it re-
suited differently, would have COM
pletely changed the course Of civiliza-
tion, says the Worlds Work. Had
Charles Martel not have won the bat
tie of Tours, for example, the whole OF
Europe, and that means also North
and South America, would very likely
have become Mohammedan in religion.
perhaps the Interpretation Of the
Koran" says Gibbon, describing the
consequences of this battle, "would
now be taught In the schools Of Ok
ford and her pupils might demonstrate
to the English people the truth Of the
revelation of Mohamet."
Ten of Creasy's epochal battles have
been fought since the beginning of the
Christian era. Four of them represent
victories which were won on French
soil-the battle Of Chalons, A. d. 451
the battle of Tours, 1872; Joan Of Arcs
victory at Orleans, 1929, and the battle
of valmy in 1892. Another was a
great French victory won on English
soil-the battle Of Hastings In 1865.
Two others-the battle Of Blenheim,
In 1704, and the battle of Waterloo In
1S15-were great French defeats. It
appears, therefore, that of the ten
most decisive battles fought In the
Christian era five were great French
victories and two were French defeats.
No other nation has any such military
history as this. This mere record in
dicates the part which France has
played in advancing civilization. So
far as Europe is concerned the great
est events in modern history have
taken place on French soil. At this
time, when the democratic nations
have joined hands to deliver France
from the cowardly attack which Ger
many has made upon her, 1t Is well to
keep this fact In mind
