UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER

The very best answer that the United States can make to the peace barley of the Germans, and in fact all of the TeutOn nations. for that mat ter is to oversubsCribe the present st ,00O. .0OU,O Fourth Liberty loan and 10 call several million additional men to the CoOrs. This for the reason that such an answer is bound to make q sharper impression on the square heads than any amount Of lOng-dis- tanCc conversation. Let the allies also continue to drive the Huns back on all fronts and thus demonstrate to the enemy that the war will be fought to d finish in Germany unless the Teutons are willing to make an un- conditional surrender.
 President Wilson has stated five principles upon which this country will consent to confer for peace, prin- ciplcs sound and consistent with all the highest ideals of Americanism. He lS III ItN VI bl lilt ittibHt VI lihiioii' alter the war. This league will be formed at the peace conference and will be the means of dealing impar tial justice to all nations for all time. It will be the best method available for insuring a permanent peace.
 The Presidents five principles are as follows:
 There must be impartial justice to all nations. without any discrimina- tion between them.
 No special interest of any nation or group of nations can be the basis Of any settlement or part settlement if not consistent with the common in terest of all nations.
 There can be no league, alliance or special understandings within the gen eral and common family of the league of nations.
 There can be no selfish economic combinations within the league nor the use of any boycott except as a means of discipline.
 All international agreements and treaties must be made known to the rest of the world.
 These terms are definite and un- eQuiv0cal There can be no question as to what the United States will con slider when it comes to pe%cc terms.
 They are sound principles upon which the future peace of the world may safely be founded.
 They are based on the fundamental idea of a league of nations after the war With the coordination that this bound to bring about a condition that will do much to destroy a possibility of future wars
 And %fter the establishment of this lc, gue the President gives his five principles which shall govern the ac- tions of the league.
 There shall be no injustice done to any nation or group of nations. The first condition is the keynote of the whole peace proposition which the ad- ministration will stick for against all opposition. It is fundamental accord ing to the ideals of the American peo- pie. This will safeguard the small nation which has been crushed in the war. This will safeguard the rights of the nations which have been di- vided and ground down under tho heel of the oppressor for generations In plain English. it is simply the American doctrine of flair play" ap- pied to international negotiations.
 The second principle is really a cor Ollary of the first. for it is based d- rectly upon 1t. No special interest of any nation or group Of nations shall form the basis for n peace settlement or partial settlement, unless it is thor oughly consistent and to the common interest of all the nations. This makes sure that there shall be no dis criminatiOn between any of the na- tions which take part in the peace
