has been stripped of his pow
er. He is now plain William
Hohenzollern, a fugitive in
Holland. With his fall topples
into ruin Williams mad de-
sign to rule the world.
For the allies the problem
has changed. The countries
which fought Germany and
her vassals for more than four
years have emerged from the
war completely triumphant,
but within the borders of the
countries which menaced the
peace of the whole world
stalks revolt, famine and an
archy. The worlds next task
may be to restore order in the
desolated central empires. It
may be the lot of the former
who have successfully contest
ed Germany's greed for power
to save her from the fate she
imposed on Russia. Likewise
help will have to be given to
Austria Hungary, Bulgaria,
and Turkey, whose ruin Ger
many wrought. "
The German empire was the
last Of the great autocracies
whose fall marks the real sig
nifcance of the war. In Russia,
Austria Hungary and finally
in Germany irresponsible
power gave way before the ir-
resistible forces of democracy.
Germany holding on to the
last kept up the hopeless
struggle until Field Marshal
Won Hindenburg's prophetic
words, early IN the war, came
true. The side with the strong
est nerves, said he, would win.
It was the crumbling of the
home front which made it i'm
possible for Germany, not
withstanding her great armies
in the field, to carry on any
longer.
