It is thought there is no probability of stopping the work as both of these projects are well advanced.

A contemporary prints suggestive
picture today. The Kaiser with his
naturally fierce countenance is eS-
I tending an olive branch with his lett
.iad. His right is behind him in when
be is clutching a bowie knife upon
the blade of which are the words
sse u Iboat atrocities.
After carefully reading the reply OF
Germany to President Wilson's peace
terms we are inclined to adopt the
opinions of the great mass of the
newspapers of the civilized world thai
unconditional surrender and the eli.
raination of the Hohenzollerns is the
cniy safe way to deal with the Huns.
They have lost the confidece of man
lind and there can be no parleys with
such people. 1t is plain that they arc
endeavoring to save all possible from
the wrcckage of their military ma
chine whichg less than year ago was
defying civilization. They selected
Force as the instrument to bring
about peace. Force must, therefore,
settle tbs dispute.
If, however, Germany is acting in
good faith in its answer to President
Wilson, then, as Secretary McAdoo
says, her acceptance Of the Presidents
demands amounts to unconditional
surrender. If so, the war is won 1t is
not worth while to go in fighting for
something that we already possess.
/ Obviously the thing to do in these
circumstances IS to ind out whether
she is acting in good faith, if what
she means by acceptance of the Presi-
4 dents terms and what We mean by i
ale one. and the same thing.
Suppose she does rot mean what
we mean. Suppose her demand is not
tantamount to unconditional surrender.
What Then? The answer to that. ques
ton is that until we know until the
last vestige of doubt is removed, we
must keep our war machinery work
ing at full speed, we must not relax
our effort by the fractional part OF
an inch.
