Conquest and Kultur

Here, them lies the key to Germany's future,
for nothing but Belgium, under Germany's po-
litical and military influence, could provide the
possibility of effectively threatening the British
Island Empire itself, by enabling our fleet to
create for England that risk which was to be the
final purpose of its construction. Thus
the military and political domination of Germany
over Belgium is seen to be compelling neces-
sity. arising from the geographical situation, the
military relations of strength and the political
grouping of the Powers, Just as clearly as from
Great Brtain's destructive will against Ger

From economic point of view, Belgium

The Presidents Message

Continuing with development of the great
theme of international democracy, which has en-
crossed his attention for many months, President
Wilson yesterday in his message to Congress de-
clares that terms Of peace must be concluded by
the people themselves, by "the opinion of man.
kind" and not by picked representatives of the
nations who will pay no attention to the rights of
their constituents or of the small nations.
The President points out definitely that if
this war ends in peace of the old order in which
people are traded as if they were chattels, in
which boundaries are arbitrarily established
without consulting the wishes of the inhabitants,
enduring peace will have been declared Such
action will invite another conflict.
The peace which the President believes must
be declared will be one in which national aspra-
tons must be respected and peoples dominated
and governed by their own consent" Peace terms
cannot be discussed separately or in corners" "
Each part of the final settlement must be based
upon the essential justice of that particular
cause and upon such adjustments as are most
likely to bring peace that will be permanent.
President Wilson is worrying diplomats of the
old school, His outspoken declarations of Ameri-
cas- intentions and aspirations made yesterday
and in former addresses must come big sur
prise to men trained to hide their real purposes
and aims behind vague phrases. If the Bolshe-
Wiki in Russia believed they were candid Presi
dent Wilson goes them one better. Neither Ger
many nor Austria need do much thinking to in
terpret the Presidents message. Diplomat and
common citizens can understand its purport
