Must Be No COMPROMISE
[From the New York Times.I

lfIOIn the new Orh llmeS.l
There can be no compromise. Mr..
Lloyd George said last Thursday:
There are some men who say
drop it and let us have peace by
negotiation There is no compro-
mise between freedom and tyranny,
no compromise between light and
darkness. l know that it is better
TO sacrifice one generation than to
sacrifice liberty forever. That is
what we are lighting for, and Heaven
grant that we fight through to the
end"
So beyond her renunciations and
restorations of territory in the west,
Germany must give up the east That
is the irreducible minimum of allied
demand, The indispensable condition
of peace. 1t involves the breaking
up of the preposterou3 Austrian EN-
pire that has long overstayed its
time, for that land is under Ger
many's thumb, and with 125, ,000, 900
people in the heart of Europe di-
rected by one will and moved by a
common purpose the world would
not be safe. The Allies have recog-
nized the Czecho-Slovaks as nation,
the Jugo-Slavs must be freed, the
Italian provinces restored. German
Austria may go to Germany if she
so wills. President Wilson has said
than an Independent Polish state
should be erected, guaranteed by
international covenant. There will
be no throne in Finland for a Ger
man king. II the Ukraines estab-
lish an independent state there will
be a chain of barrier nations between
Germany and Russia, furnishing to
the Russians a needed protection
against German designs while they
are striving, possibly through trying
years, to set up a stable government.
The treaties of Brest-Litovsk and of
Bucharest must be annulled. The
Austrian prop removed, Bulgaria and
Turvey can avoid the inevitable
reckoning with the Allied Powers
only by throwing off German con-
troll and German sympathies.
Germany will be shut off from the
east. Her plan and her design are
plain to the view. With that vast re-
cruiting ground, rich in resources
and in men, she would be able to
look upon defeat in the west as a
temporary rebuff. Already she has
marked out her pathway toward In

A SERIOUS CHARGE

a MITCHELL PALMER made a
IA. very serious charge before the
State Democratic Committee
Saturday when he asserted that
there is in the very shadow of the
national capitol" a newspaper CO.
verify financed by the liquor inter
ests for the purpose of fighting the
battle of booze in Congress. Mr..
Palmer has been given so much to
talking vaguely before Democratic
gatherings that ordinarily his utter
ances might be taken as those of
one speaking with political license"
to give an old phrase a new twist,
but he was so specific in his declara-
tions in this instance that he must
know whereof he is speaking and if
he does it becomes his duty as an
American citizen and a representa-
tive of the United States Govern
ment to lay bare the full facts con-
cerning this outrageous condition.
The free American press is a bull
wark of liberty; a controlled press
would be the first step toward rob-
bing the people of their freedom. IT
is all very we'll for this or that inter
est, or this or that group of politi-
clans to own and control newspaper
organs, perhaps, when they are la
beled on their face as such. Indi-
viduals or groups of individuals are
entitled to the use of printers ink
to set their views before the public.
Many great governmental and other
reforms have been wrought in this
fahhion. But when a newspaper
pretends to be free and independ-
ent, when it sets itself up as the
champion of good morals and public
rights, the while it is merely a tool
in the hands of selfish men or self
ish interests, then it becomes the
greatest instrument for evil in the
land. If Mr.. Palmer's charges are
true. the guilty publishers should be
exposed. In these days of pro-Ger-
man intrigue it is especially import
ant that the press of the country he
above suspicion and that the people
know their newspapers for what they
are.

Auditor General Snyder and sena-
tor Beidleman, in recent speeches.
have presented some strong statistical
reasons for the return of the Repub-
hcan party to power at Washington
and its support elsewhere. The fact
that the Republican party has given
such steadfast support to the Govern
ment in all war activities has been
noted by the people, and the efforts
of the McCormicks and Palmers to
throw dust into the eyes of the people
are about as futile as their efforts
to conceal their chagrin over Bonni-
wells reputation of their leadership.

We are now confronted with che

Captain BILLY" McCreath declared
in his modest speech yesterday tha;
"the Germans will never make an

The sacrifices already made will
have been in vain if through a false

starting point of another war.
The Germans know that they are
going to be beaten, as we'll as the
Allies know it," says a thoughtful
writer. For months, however, Ger
many has hoped. and she still hopes,
that by some chance she may make
peace which will favor her 20 a
greater or less degree. Germany
knows that the spiritually civilized
world did not want war and long ago

tenant governor. as a candidate for
Congress in the sixth district, means
the opening of the State Democratic
Committees campaign OF concentra-
ton on Logue and the other men
who are favored by the machine as
opposed to Judge Eugene c. Bon
niwell. The executive committee is
getting ready to round up congress
sional and legislative candidates who
are ''leary" of the broil which has
been caused by National Chairman
Vance c. Mccormick and National
Committeeman A. Mitchell Palmer
and will also try to get some
supreme court aspirants out of the
way.
The indications are that Mr..
Logue will make speeches and Pal
mer and his pals will get some big
guns in from Washington to invade
Pennsylvania during the campaign
for the sake of making a contrast
with the Bonniwell campaign, which
the judge plans to conduct in his
own energetic way without much
help from the national administra-
ton. Judge John w. Wescott, of
Camden. may be one of the men to
speak for him together with some
