The name Of the British command

luck, but it may cut a big figure in
the campaign against the Turks.
That all Germans are not OF the
intelligence and mentality reflected
by their unspeakRbIe connie weekly,
''ESladdsradateh'. is shown by a re-
cent editorial in The Muenchner
Neusts Naehriehten. translated and
made public by the committee on
Public Information. It at least
recognizes President Wilson and Am
erica as a great moral and military
force to be reckoned with. Here is
the excerpt:
The message justified the re-
cent articles in this newspaper
written by Germans familiar with
the American situation, who
painted a picture OF Wilson other
than that Of our shallow daily
newspapers and comics-not a
bribed agent of Wall street and
champion OF trust imperialist,
grasping rapaciously for world
supremacy, but q paciflst Of eX-
treme puritanic fanaticism de-
termined to use every effort to
win the victory for his ideals OF
right and justice -.
In this doctrinarism lies. per-
haps. Wilson's moral greatness
and suggestive strength for Am
orleans. German statesmen will
do well to realize that il Ger
many comes to no modus Vivendt
with the Wilson mentality it will
find in America its most tenaci-
GUS and wealthy opponent with
inexhaustible resources.
Altogether, Wilson shows him
self as the only opponent with
whom discussion is possible.
Therefore. it is the duty OF Ger
man statesmen to secure the
greatest possible benef1t from
this discussion.
If agreement with America can
succeed before its war machine
assumes Irresistible momentum

reading. 1t is hard to equal Carlyle's

Tracing the similarity between the
present Russian uprising and the
French affair. is about the Hveliest
thrill possible for those 5000 miles
away from the scene.
The Bolshevid have decided they |
can get along without the church and
a Supreme Being.
The French made the same decis-
ion. They confiscated the church |

II is q rather comforting feeling /
that all this turmoil happened be-
fore. Even though it arouses the
thought that it may happen again, it
at least is reassuring to know that
civilization came through it once. It
helps to get perspective on a trag-
edy that now seems to I'LL the whole
field Of vision. /
