WHY HELP THE FoE7

n F the kaiser made his SEN
sational drive against the
British partly with the aim
of affecting the morale of the
allies so as to pave the way for
a German made peace he has
had valuable help from some
American newspapers. With
soaring headlines and highly
sensational reports they have at
times given people a grossly
exaggerated idea Of the success
gained by the Huns.
One would judge from some
of the stuff seen that the al
lied armies had been destroyed,
that Paris was in ruins and all
was over but the Growing in
Berlin. There was never any
thing to justify that sad pic
ture. Only a fraction of the
allied army was engaged.
Though driven back and tenn
porarily defeated Haig's men
made a splendid showing.
Twenty seven divisions of Brit
ish checked 81 divisions Of on
rushing Teutons. The German
loss in killed has been much
heavier than the British loss.
The general situation from the
allied standpoint has never ap-
preached anything bordering
disaster. There has been gen.
eral confidence at all times
that the foe would be checked.
Without intending to do so
some of our newspapers have
helped the foe by overempha-
sizing his accomplishments.
The kaiser wants just that sort
of stuff. 1t helps his game
along.

WATCH CLOSELY THE ENE.
MIES AT HOME.

IT HE task of this country, in
~ the present war, would
be greatly simplified and
greatly reduced in its magni-
tude were all our country's
enemies in the German and
Austrian armies. The fact that
there are hundreds of thous-
ands, even millions, of enemies
scattered all over our land, Ell
ther conspiring to poison our
soldiers or to poison public op-
inion that supports them; con-
spring to dynamite industries
making munitions and sup
plies for our army or to de-
moralize public opinion and de-
stroy the morale of the people
upon whom the men in our
army and navy must rely for
support-these facts and these
activities mean not only a pro-
longation of the war and a
larger loss of life, but it means
tears otherwise unshed and
sorrow otherwise unknown.
The forces of evil, of disor-
ganization, of disloyalty and of
enmity to America and its in
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1918-03-26

stitutions are manifesting them
selves in many ways. Many
good people unconseiously fall
victims TO those sinister forces
when they complain Of slight
inconvenience resulting from
war conditions when they agi-
tate, rail, and criticize because
their business is suspended for
a few days or their profits are
lessened by a few dollars;
when they allow the spirit of
selfishness and of greed to
temporarily outweigh and over
balance the spirit of sacrifice
and of service.
Greed and gain are not wea-
pons with which we can win
the war. They are the motives
that inspired it. We can win
the war only with sacrifices,
sacrifices yet undreamed of;
with service, service greater
than we have anticipated.
Above all, let US keep watch
and guard in order that the
enemy may not, by insidious
propaganda, by falsehoods,
innuendos, and agitation, de-
moralize the people at home
upon whose soldierly and patri-
otic cooperation the men in our
army and navy are depending.

WIN OR DIE

~ HATEVER may be the
~ temporary fortunes of
war one fact may be
set down for keeps and that is
mat the war is going to end in
1efeat for the kaiser and vict-
ory for the United States and
Inc allies.
No nation has ever conquer
ed the world in modern times.
Germany cannot do it now. The
whole Teuton scheme is upon a
false basis and it is going to
fail. France, Italy, England
and America will die before
they allow an insane mental
monstrosity like the kaiser to
rule the world. But they will
not die because before that
time comes they will have
wiped the Hohenzollerins and
all their wooden headed SUBJ
jects off the face of the earth ;
they will have made the Boche
an extinct species and the only
place that German will be spo-
ken will be in hell.
Do not countenance discour-
agement over the war. An al
led triumph is as certain as the
sunshine if we but stay in the
game. If the allies are beaten
it will be by themselves not by
the Germans.
