 INCLUDING UUR HUN0R"
"Shall We Be Robbed of All COnso- latiOn in the Solitude and Silence of Our Misery?"

London, Dec. 24.-CBritish Wire less Service. )-Commenting on the handing over to the British of the German submarine U-9 by the Ger man crew, who seized this opportuni- ty to earn 500 marks per man paid by Germany as compensation for taking the boats to England, the Colgne Volks zeitung says
 Even when the astounding h1s- tory of the Russian rubles given to the German peoples deputies was re- lated, we had patience. We had in- deed still one consolation. Through this night of universal misfortune the splendor of our armies fame slss- tened with friendly radiance, never to disappear so long as men walked upon earth.
 Shall we now be robbed of this consolation in the solitude and silence of our misery? Is it possible in Germany that even 'red' sailors it is have sold for 500 marks aae last possible remnant of tho honor of an undying hero?
 "A British Admiral tBeauty) re- nounces the handing over of d U-boat, which, as victor, he wishes. with noble gesture, to bestow upon the vanquished, as one isaccustomed to leave his sword to tLa brave com mander of a conquered fortress. Rev olltionariese in German naval uni form prefer, we ar told, 300 marks. These dishonorahle men venture again to tread German sol, with their wages of sin.
 Gan 1t really be true' Many a tear would flow in th German fath- erland. So everything is lost. jncl,,d- ing honor. We could not then sink lower in the estimation of the world it is impossible"

V0N KUEHL MANN LAVE ORDERS AND CZtRNIN
 UBEYtD, SAYS LION

London, Dec. 24.--(British Wireless Service .)--Laon TFotnky, Russian Bolshevikist Minister of war, and ma rine, has made statement regarding the recent efforts Of count Czernin, fonmer Austro-Hungarian minister of foreign affairs, to excuse himself for the part he played in the negotia- tion of the Brest-Litovsk treaty.
 Count Czernin,Y says Trotzky, insists now they very strongly up- on difference between the policy of Dr. Richard Won Kuehlmann (form- CT German fsSeign secretary) and lis own. We have actually noticed between them some difference but thsi difference was due simply to the fact that Von .Kuehlmann com manded and Czernin obeyed. It would be still more correct. to say that General Hoffman Gone of the German delegates to Brest-Litovsk) gave orders to Von Kuehlmann, and that Von Kuehlmann conveyed them to CZernin.
 "Czernin now discloses that it was his conviction that it was necessary that Poland, Lithunia and Cortland, should themselves determine their own government. In Brest-Litovsk negotiations Czernin did not in any way display this conviction.
 When General Hof man wanted to express in especially Cynical form contempt of the Victors for the right of self-determination of peoples, Won KuehNmann charged Czernin with this task and Czernin carried it out
 "As to the special pacific propo~ sitions supposed to have teen made by Czernin and to have miscarried owing to my opositicm, no proposi- sions differing from those of Won Kuehlmann was made by Czernin. either during the fficial sessions of the conferences. or during the few conversations which he had with me- Shcrt hand reports of the Brest- Litovsk negotiations will be pub lished soon.
 "Morevar acts have more value than words. Austro-Hungarian troops, invaded the Ukraine and op- pressed the people. It is true they now are hastily evacuating the ter ritory, but this fact is not due to count Czernin."

Whether man has had wealth or poverty, failure or success, counts for little when 1t is past. There is but one question for him to answer, to face boldly and honestly as an individual alone with his conscience and his des tiny. "How will let that poverty or wealth affect me? If that trial or depri' vation has left me better, nobler, then poverty has been riches, failure has been a success"
