FOCH'S DECISION.
New York TimeG J

The German Armistiec Commiss-
toner's complained TINT they found
Marshal Foch cold, stern, implncab;e.
lie read the terms. that seemed 10
them ruthless, in voice in which
there was no consideration for them
as representatives Of the Imperial
Government and its still powerful
army. They expected a show of
courtesy, even if it were formal. but
the, man who had Germany's destiny
IN his hands wasted no time in pre-.
Iminaries and empty forms. He was
doing his duty without gparing them
on himself. He was not even tempted
by great ambition. A correspondent
OF the British Wireless Service in
France now asserts that if hostilities
had lasted ten days more Marshal
Ioch would have brought about the
SUI render Of the entire German Army
and won The greatest victory "of ali

some of the greatest jurists of the
Kingdom and they had unanimously
and definitely arrived TT the conclu-
sion that in their Judgment the former
German Emperor was guilty of ar
indictable offense for which he ought
TO be held responsible.
Referring to the culpabili.y of the
authors of the war, Mr.. LLOYD Georrr
said the Government intended TINT
the investigation to be conducted
should be perfectly fair but a stern
one, ard that it should 70 to its final
reckoning. He added:
we have got so to act that nen in
the future who feel tempted to follow
the example Of the rulers who plunpeJ
The world into war will know what is
waiting for them Mt the end"
The Prime Minister said the vic
tory of the Entente Allies had been
due to the ceaseless valor of their
men, md that it would be lesson to
ybody who, in the future. THOUGHT
that they, us The Prussian war lords
hoped could overlook this little
island in their reckoning"
We are now approaching the Peace
Conference" the Premier continued
The price of victoy is not ven
&clnce nor retribution. 1t is proven
tion. FIRST of all what about those
People whom we have received with
out question for years to our shores
10 whom we give equal rights with
our own sons and daughters, and who
abused that hospitality to betrsy tn,
iahd' TO plot against security, to spy
upon 1t. and to gain such information
as enabled the Prussian war lords

quests? Never again!" "
Mr.. Lloyd George said the interests
OF security and fair play hernandez
that it should be made perfectly clea,
That the people who acted in this way
merited punishment for the dnmag,
they had inflicted.

Never before in history has II
great and enlightened nation like
Germany, having all, or in the pro-
cess Of winning all by peaceful met
mods, deliberately staked her future
on the hcaltless methods of war that
she might the more speedily sAtiate
her lust for material and autocratic
dominion. Many have been puzzled TO
know why the nation that gave such
Il brilliant and lasting impulse to
Protestant principles, and therefore
spiritual freedom and power, should
thus lose her leadership and so fan.
degrade herself in the eyes of the
:"orld as to become y byword and Il
kissing. The explanation is not far
to seek She followed the leadership
Of "Blood and Iron" Her great ones
led her astray. They exercised cor
rupt dominion over her mind. The
Austrian Emperor after the over
throw Of Napoleon l ut Waterloo in
Il speech to the German professors
Mt Laybach defined the purpose Of
their appointment with almost brutal
franl:ness: 81 do not need savants but
sturdy subjects. 1t is your duty to
educate the young to be such He
who serves me must learn what
order: He who cannot, or brings me
new IDEAS can go, or will dismiss
him" And the present Kaiser of
Germany has stated his vain glorious
aim i'll the following vigorous words ::

pie have followed blind guides and

NEXT YEARS WHEAT CROP.

The Government guaranteed as :.
var measure, the price of the 1913
wheat crop on Il 1920 basis. The
Lever Act, under which wheat has
been handled will not he in force
after 4 proclamation Of peace mas
been issued, but nevertheless, the
contract between the Government
and the American wheat growers
will stand. The act provides that
all rights and liabilities, under this
act arising before its termination
shall continue and maybe enforced
in the same manner as if the act had
not been terminated" The govern
ment guarantee holds good for the
1919 wheat crop.

MIR. HoovER HAS A PROBLEM

Dispatches state that an allied
food buying pool has been formed
and that England has rushed ships
TO Australia for wheat, which was
bought at S1.i8, and to Argentine
where she gets wheat at $135. The
American guaranteed export price is
50 500. So, there you are. The
country awaits with interest the
results of MIR. IIoovcrs visit to
Europe. Some plan will be worked
out by him satisfactory to all par
ties, no doubt.

SHOULD NOT CHANGE THE
HABIT.

For more than year the people
OF this county have been learning
valuable lessons and have formed
valuable habits, in economic living.
In order to furnish supplies To our,
army of millions, and to the millions
OF our Allies, the people en- massc
responded cheerfully. The farmers
increased their crops, food, clothing,
coal and all, was conserved. and we
put ii over the top, clean and clear.
And all this was done to oar GOOD
and nobody hurt but all greatly
benefited. Now, we should not drop
back into old prc-war habits of ex-
travagant slipshod ways of living.
The farmers can continue to grow
bumper crops. and larger than here
toforc. Help will be available now,
and 1919 should see the greatest
crop of corn ever grown in this
country. We must continue to prac
tlce economy in Our expenditures for
food and clothing. The danger
is, now that the war is over, that
we will feel under no obligations to
continue our former habits Of eco
nomy. We can carry out the same
schedules next year in our homey
and on our farms, and it is a re
hgious duty to do so. We can still
have our old clothes cleaned and
brushed up, our cast off shoes
patched and made good as new. We
can still eat less wheat and more
corn, and improve in health as well
as in purse, and we must do SO if we
would profit by Invaluable lessons
taught by the great conflict through
which we have passed.
And. besides, although the war has
ceased, our war expenses will still
go on thru next year. Another Lib
erty Loan will be on hands for next
spring, and we must float it The War
Savings Campaign is still unfinished.
and food will be needed in thousands
and thousands of tons for the people
overseas. So, we are still in it. Lets
keep up the good habits we have
formed, and the rather improve upon
them.
