KAISER MUST LEARN
HOW TO WIN SOULS,

Germany must learn to win souls
as well as battles IL she would con
troll the destinies OF nations, accord
ing to an editorial headed "Friendly
Advice TO Germany" appearing in a
late issue OF the Vienna Neues
weiner Zeitung, cables today re-
ported.
Austria Hungary cannot choose her
politics; history has placed her on
the side of Germany and has traced
her future line of conduct" the lei
tung adds:
Nevertheless, not to appreciate the
true worth Of the method followed
by the entente-appeallng to the
souls OF oppressed peoples-would be
an error. We must use the very
arms the enemy is welding. And

which she has proved unequal to thus
far.
Her empire, that OF the most
gifted race in the world, has per-
formed miracles in heroism. endur-
ance, technical achievements. and
science Of organization. But there is
one art which nature has refused
her-the art OF seeing through the
souls and civilization OF other races,
and Of winning them over to her
cause.
Now that the destinies of numer-
Gus peoples are bound up in hers,
now that circumstances call her up
20 the rank of organizer OF Europe,
Germany cannot ignore that art any
longer. The offensive OF the entente
will be easily repulsed: the ilI-dis-
posed hearts will bs readily recon-
ciled to historical facts. II only the
German people will get rid OF a GER

has met with more conhdeBce than It's
numerous predecessors. market pros

The company which has become
thus favored is the St Paul II. pros

It follows that Mr.. McAdoo will sane

This Is q contamination no doubt
much desired by St PauPs stockhold-

completion Of such a deal must needs
wait on the ending of the war, I'M
