GERMAN DEMOCRATIC
PARTY'S PURPOSES
Are to Support the Republic, to Further
Democratic Reforms and to Oppose
Bolshevism.

Berlin, Thursday, Nov. rs tBy the As
ISOLATED Press The aims Of the new
German democratic party, the appeal Of
WHICH for comprehension and support has
been sent TO President Wilson, were out
lined to the correspondent to-day by
Theodor Wolf, editor-in-ch of the Ber-
lin Tageblatt. II was on his initiative
that the party was formed, He said
Our party has been formed to support
the republic, to further democratic re-
forms on socialistic- economic basis and
to furnish a rallying point for the middle
classes and keep them from falling into
party will, naturally, oppose bolshevism
with all means at its command. In other
words, we aim to win and hold the mid.

Herr Wolff explained that, in keeping
with the partys aims, all former mem
bers of the progressive or other parties
who have been active In militeristic and
nationalistic agitations, or who, like DR..
Gustav Stresemann, national-liberAl
member of the Reichstag, have actively
advocated the submarine campaign, have
been fatty informed that, while they
cannot be excluded from the party ii
they desire to join, they will, neverthe,
less, be vigorously excluded from any
participation in its leadership,
"The party's membership is already
colossal" said Herr Wolff "and thou

Virtually the whole progressive party
membership, excepting a few on the ex.
IRENE right, will join, and many prom.
inent democrats who formerly stood far
to the left that they were kept out of

Hugo Preuss, Germany's foremost su-
thority on constitutional law, who is now
drafting a constitution for submission to
the national assembly, Professor Walther
Schurking Of Marburg university, Pro-
lessor Gerlach, Deputy Fischbeck and
Professor Max Weber"
The left wing of the national.liberals
is also furnishing recruits, according to
Herr Wolff The men include Prince
Sehoensch Carolath, Dr. M. J. Junck and
DR.. Whiting, president Of the National
Bank Of Berlin.

PLAIN QUESTIONS
TO BARRE PEOPLE
Every Barre Reader Will Admit the
Soundess Of the Logic.

Would Barre people recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills as
they do if the medicine were not
reliable? Would they confirm
their statements after years
have elapsed if their experiences
did not show the remedy to be
deserving of it? Statements like
the following must carry convic-
ton to the mind of every reader:

TO LIMIT OF CAPACITY.
Germany Must Pay the Cost of the War,
British Premier Declares.

Newcastle, England, Nov. 30.-Ger.
many must pay the cost of the war to
the limit Of her capacity, Premier Lloyd
George declared in a speech here yester-
day
The submarine pirates must be pun
ished, the premier added, and whoever
devastated the lands OF another country
ought TO be responsible for II.
Referring to the culpability of the au-
thors of the war, Mr.. Lloyd George said
the government intended that the inves.
tigation to be conducted should be a per.
fectly fair, but stern one, and that it
should go on to it's final reckoning.
Il mean to see that the men who did
not treat our prisoners humanely be
made responsible. We do not wish to
pursue policy of vengeance. but we
have got to act that men in the future
who feel tempted to follow the example
of the rulers who plunged the world into
war will know what is waiting for them
at the end"

ceived letter that he was expecting to
be able to leave the hospital shortly but
it was not until she received the letter

He left Montpelier May rs and the first

He was killed Oct. %. He was member

The case OF the Goth is not altogether

DELAWARE RIVER YARDS BUSY.
Even Though the Coming Of Peace Will
Check General Operations.


Philadelphia, Nov. 30. Announcement
that the coming of peace will not slow
down materially the shipbuilding activ-
tiles of the yards fringing the Delaware
river is made by Charles Piez, vice presi-
dent and general manager of the Emer-
gency Fleet corporation. The work will
be lessened only through elimination Of
all overtime labor. Further assurance
that no move is eentemplat j to curtail
operations is given daily in advertise
ments in the papers here for skilled and
unskilled workmen for employment at
the yards.
Ships and more ships, according to Mr..
Piez, will be needed to transport food
supplies to feed Europe, and for the nee
essary materials that will be required
for the reconstruction period in the war
stricken area.
I'VE must continue to build ships for
an indefinite period to carry on that
work" said Mr. Piez, as there are not
nearly enough at present. If any changes
are made in our building program, they
will affect only the form and degree Of
the work outlined"

Unless the machinery which long ex-

once more brought into play, there will
be grave danger of progressive credit

The Hara Cabinet Is Taken as Sign Of

headed BY Takash Hara is hailed as
marking the advent of popular govern.
ment in Japan. For fifty years the cham

been struggling for system under
which the premier would be selected for
that post because he was the leader
Of the majority party in the House Of
Representatives. This has been accom-
plished when Mr.. Hara was chosen.
During that half century the govern

court circles generally styled bureaucrat-
ie On the other hand Mr., Hara is a
commoner. He has selected as members
of his cabinet those of this party, in

exclaimed Marquis Okuma, Japan's
grand old man. who has labored al
ways for the cause of democratic gov

port the Hara ministry if they are real
iy desirious Of the developments of con
stitutional politics in Japan. Japan
should have new men, young and vigor
Gus who are able to handle important
affairs Of state"
One Of the first decisions adopted by
the new cabinet was to abolish the Gus.

freer access to them.

eye with frankness.
