ion Of the situation of his country,

~, Germany, the essential charac-

government.
.g0 A foreign policy that has raised
tha hostility of the whole civilized
world: that relies on inferior elements

good terms with the most dangerous
enemies of humanity, the Bolsheviki
10. A powerful caste of noblemen
and military men, reinforced by the

supporter of the dynasty.
80. A shadow of parliament.
80. A press that is at the same
mental level as the people and his
chiefs.

that has come over both learned and

sophism of Carneade: There is no
right: might is right
$50 4 financial policy based on the
principle we should worry
go. An army which runs blindly to
death.
100. A perfect cooperation between
all these even forces.
'sThe results of this cooperation
may be summed up as follows:
Il. The power of the government
has increased enormously. It draws
near to oriental despotism, summary
execution, Imprisonment on suspicion.
20. The parliament loses more and
more Of its prestige.
80 Everybody lies, those who do
not lie are considered as rascals.
Il Material losses are incalculable
millions OF dead and mutilated men,
5000 100000 marks of war credits,
the loss of the German colonies, ruin
Of the navigation and foreign trade.
IS Moral losses are still heavier.
Honesty is dead; the German name is
discredited for centuries in four-fifths
Of the civilized world.
And this may still go on for a long
time unless German suffers a military
defeat. Such a defeat is evidently
possible, notwithstanding the German

story Of his escape by ten minutes
from death in carefully prepared am

blame him for all Rusia's ills, had re-
marked that he. succeeded in fleeing

That is a lie,'' said KerenSky.
"As a matter of fact on the morning
of November 8, 1917, with the consent
of members of the provisional govern

of the Petrograd military district, to-
gether with the man second in COM

cided to throw up the struggle against
the Bolsheviki.
