GERMAN WAR LORDS
Are Scathingly De-
nounced by Senator
Lewis

Washington, Feb. 12.-Germany's war
loius were scathinS'y denounced and
Americans urged TO fight for the de-
mocracy implanted by Lincoln and ad-
Nanced by Wilson," in an address
COMMUNICATING the birthday anniver-
sary of President Lincoln. delivered
today by Senator Lewis of Illinois. The
German peace offers were declared to
be only "a ruse To murder"
The struggles of the worlds domoc-
racics to retain their liberty were re-
counted by senator Lewis. quoting the
German poet Goethe that those who
nave liberty must fight to keep it, He
referred to President Lincoln Us 1.-THE
ape site of liberty of man and the STAN
dard bearer of the democracy of the
world. This nations progress and
freedom he declared. were the worlds
inspiration for Republican government
NO democracy was ever founded. :
he sais!. that did not have to fight to
continue its existence or maintain IFS
ideals.
From envy of our situation, from
jealousy of our progress. hatred was
aroused in the hearts Of others. Amer
lean institutions of freedom. inspiring
mankind to her example. inflamed the
souls of the royal rulers Of Prussia
with fear and inspired them to the war
OF destruction of all that America
stood for and was living for This 10
them was necessary, that they might
avoid American influence upon the
hearts of the liberyloving German peo-
pie"
1t had been charged, Senator Lewis
said, that "Amcrica under President
Wilson, would continue war to force
governments and people of foreign
lands to take our form Of government
This he denied, asserting the Presi-
dent fights for democracy as right
Of the world"
The promise of President Wilson
to make the world safe for democrat
cy, he added, lis not a threat to
make the world take democracy. IT is
but the assurance of the effort TO give
to the world it's chance to take demOc-
racy."
Senator Nelson in a. speech also GU
logiZed President Lincoln, after which
the Senate adjourned until tomorrow.

SENATE BILL WOULD
RAISE WHEAT PRICE
Gore Measure Fixes $3.50 for
1918 Crop.

Washington, March it.--While the
food administration was making plans
today to meet the critical wheat short
age by further reduction in con-
sumption, the senate again took up
and debated legislation to increase
production by raising the price on the
1918 crop.
The food administration was stirred
to action by reports from the depart
ment of agriculture showing that the
supply of wheat on farms and in coun-
try elevators is far less than 1t was
year ago.
The senate considered a bill by Sen
ator Gore OF Oklahoma to fix the price
nj $3.50, or 80 cents a bushel more, than
set in a recent proclamation by Presi-
dent Wilson. In the house today also
n bill was introduced by Representative
Morgan of Oklahoma To appropriate
$500. 0oo. 900 to compensate producers
for the losses they sustained when thf
government, established its 1917 price
at a figure lower than the then market
price.
