BY FRANK H. sIMONDs,

We should be a very naive people, in
deed. quite as stupid as Won Papen de-
clared. If we did not understand exactly
what the German campaign Of fire and
explosion in northern France means.
The German Is getting ready to make
peace, and this is his idea of the fashion
in which to prepare for the end of hos
Titles
In German logic the situation is this:
At no distant time hostilities will be
over and then the business Of manufac-
ture and trade will begin again. When
this business begins tho German will
once more have to compete with the rest
Of the world. Among his competitors
are the manufacturers Of northern
France and of Belgium. This being the
case, it is his duty. while the power re-
Of future competition.
Against such an eventuality he began
his preparations long ago. In the win
ter of 1914'15 he removed all the ma.
chinery from the great manufacturing
centers of Lille, Roubaix and Tourcoing
and transported it back to Germany. He
has continued this systematic spoliation
Of the industrial establishments of
France and Belgium ever since. Now
he is going one step further and de-
stroying the buildings in which the ma
chinery was originally installed and the
cities in which the industries were con-
Quoted.
The region through which the Ger
man Is now retreaung Is one of the
great industrial districts of Europe.
Lille, Tourcoing and Roubaix. practi-
cally constituting q single city of over
100000 Inhabitants, are the great in
dustrial towns of France. Cambria,
Douai and score of smaller places
now in the war news are similarly
busy centers of French manufacture.
Lens whose complete ruin has been
reported, is the chief coal mining
town of France. Scattered about it
are the smaller villages which, with
Lens. supply almost all of the, coal
essential to French industry. Be-
tween these various cities and towns
run many canals useful in the trans
portation of material.
ALI Systematically Destroyed.
Now the factories. the mines, the
canals are all being systematically
destroyed, together with the cities in
| the district. Everything of the
smallest value which could be moved
| has been moved back to Germany;
ruined or destroyed by fire and dyna-
mite.
| 1t is the Germans calculation that
when he has completed this work of
systematic and deliberate destruction
industrial France and industrial Bel
GUM will be wiped off the map, and
| that it will be matter of years be-
fore either can be restored. In these
years German manufactures will
| profit by the absence of French and
the burden Of the war will be trans
ferred from German to French and
Belgian backs.
1t is essential that this whole pro-
gram. and it is a program, should be
fully appreciated by the American
people. When he has completed his
| task Of devastation the German ex-
poets to make peace. He expects to
be able to explain that such ruin as
has come to France and Belgium is

Will Stagger Humanity.

Is 1t conceivable that any American,
high or low. can be deceived by any
German words after the recent reve-
lation Of German deeds? And We are
ure; we are Just entering Belgium,
and in the next few weeks the story
Of German crime and oppression In
Belgium Will stagger humanity. Four
years of slavery. despoliation. murder
and worse than murder are to be un-
reach Brussels, Antwerp and Liege.
The German believes he can make
peace before those facts are sum
GENTLY known to give decisive char
acter to the terms OF that peace he
French cities are in ashes and French
factories in ruins he can in his own
factories, freed from all French or
Belgian competition. dominate world
industry. as he tried to dominate
world politics. He believes that, hav-
ing reduced the merchant marine Of
the world by his unrestricted subma-
rine warfare. he can coin money for
his own shipping, which will take the
place of the lost enemy boats.
The German has lost the battle-he
knows it quite as well as we know it
but he has not yet lost the war.

going to let him get away with it?
II we do. what people will resist tho
next German attack? Certainly. not
