Every loyal American, whethe,
Democrat, Republican, Bull Moose OF
Socialist, preparedness advocate OF
pacifist, can and should support the
Presidents international policy. He
has dissolved every doubt. We now
know that we are not fighting for
European trade rights or colonial i'm
perialism. We are fighting for Liber-
ty and democracy and the fight must
continue until liberty and democracy
are established.
WILSON has Cleared Air.
1t will be established soon. AS
spokesman for the Allies, President
Wilson has cleared the air of confus-
ion. He has done much to convince
the Russian people that we sympathize
with their democratic aspirations. He
would absolutely convince them if
certain nafrow-visioned newspapers
in America will stop abusing and
lying about the Bolsheviki, who are
doing the best they can under very
difficult circumstances. We should
be- charitable and remember that we
had a great deal of anarchy in our
own country for several years after
the Revolutionary war.
TN time, President Wilson will con-
vince the German people that Amer
ica's only aim is world-democracy Sc
cured by a league of nations. They
half believe this now. When they
wholly believe there will be revo-
luton that will overthrow the Ger
man militarists and end the war. But
here; too, President Wilson is handi-
capped by the Incorporate tone and
brutal chauvinism of some of our
newspapers and politicians. These
abusive and threatening articles are
republshed in Germany. They do
much to harden the temper of the
German people. The German junkers
cite this as evidence that the German
people are fighting to defend the
Fatherland. This cements their al
legiance to their rulers and thus pro-
longs the war.
Talk to Liberate Germans.
ut is our task to convince the Ger
man people that we desire only their
liberation. When they feel certain Of
this, when they realize that conquest
is not our purpose, they will liberate
themselves. We can win this war
without military victory, for the
war will be won whenever the German
people decide to dispense with their
autocrats and establish responsible
democracy. President Wilson was the
first Allied statesman to adopt the
very effective plan Of undermining the
German militarists by encouraging
liberals ia the Central empires. But,

there are many things which can be

FIRST, a systematic survey of the

tain the possible needs Of farmers
and to determine ways of meeting
them. The department, before the
beginning of the next crop season,
through its agents stationed in the
arious states and in cooperation
with the department of labor and the
state councils of defense, will make
such survey.
