The emigration of men Is not ex-

In the first place, the men are need

on the idea OF men going to other

And patriotism-a desire to see
Britain through the tasks Of recon-

number of men who would go.
Applications for passports by girls

again this year or next A similar
bluff on a larger scale may weaken
the morale of the allied peoples and
lead them to accept an 1ndeclslVe
peace equivalent to a German victory.
This German bluff in front OF the
allied lines and German intrigue be-
hind the lines constitute the greatest
immediate danger to the cause Tor
which we fight. If the people of the
allied nations can hold fast to their
courage and their faith in ultimate
triumph. final victory is as certain as
anything human can be. The success
or failure of that bluff depends upon
the people behind the lines. 1t was
not the French soldiers or the French
generals who failed last spring. There
is no danger that the French, British
or American troops or generals Will
be fooled or bluffed into halting or
weakening their efforts in the future.
1t was tho civilian element, the poll
ticians, IN France who spoiled the
chances of victory at the Aisne- IL
allied morale weakens before the sac
rifices of the future, it will be because
the people at home lack the faith and
the courage to stand solidly behind
the boys in France until the victory
is won.
What Happened at Cambria.
Before closing this review it would
not be out of place to add some refer
ence to the facts, that gradually have
leaked out, concerning what actually
happened at Cambria in November
and December. The British advance
an Cambria was on a front of about
ten miles. The ground was gained SO
easily that the British got about twice
as far into enemy territory as they
had expected. The victory was as
much of a surprise to themselves as
to the Germans. The result was that
they had neither the men nor II
artillery a. hand to make their gains
safe.
When the German forces struck
tremendous counter blow at the base
of the British salient on its south side
and drove a small wedge even thru the
original British line at that point, it
became necessary for General Bypg to
withdraw his forces from their most
advanced positions in order to prevent
their entire development. In their at
tacks the Germans were greatly
strengthened by heavy reinforcements
that had arrived fresh from the Rus
sian front, where the armistice with
the Bolsheviki had been concluded.
The British still hold all of the ground
which they expected to take when
Byng's great attack was launched.
The accompanying map shows the
original British line, their farthest ad-
vance and the present front, which, by
the way, is some three miles nearer to
Cambria than the line as it stood be-
fore the offensive in November.
Another map accompanying this re-
view shows the Russian territory de-
manded by the Germans and the out
line of the independent Poland de-
manded by President Wilson in his
peace terms.

ability to force a victorious decision
upon the battlefield. If such is the
case no one will ever know it but
themselves until the war is over. The
German war machine may now or at
some future time approach the point
of collapse. If it does no one but
the high command will be aware of 1t
until the collapse occurs or the allies
have yielded. The German army will
show no signs of weakness as long as
it is possible to conceal conditions and

1t is now a fact of history that Rus
STA actually had Japan at her mercy
at the moment when she was signing
a treaty of peace that left her enemy
undisputed victory and master of
Manchuria. Russia was deceived into
making peace by a stupendous but
wonderful skillful japanese bluff.
After the, battle of Mukden. in
which the Japs had defeated the Rus
sian armies, the two hostile forces lay
facing each other in comparative in
activity while the peace negotiations
went on and until the treaty was
signed. But here is the startling fact.
The Russian armies still had a rea-
sonably adequate supply of ammunl-
ton to continue the fighting. The
ammunition of the Japanese was so
nearly exhausted, that if the Russians
had fought a day longer at Mukden,
or had attacked the Japs at any time
u
lowing, the japanese armies would
have been routed and the war would
have ended in complete victory for the
Russians and utter defeat for the
Japs.
In the case of Japan the blu.
worked and won the war. These
facts are by no means unfamiliar to
the German high command. If op-
portunity offers they will attempt the
same sort of bluff on the allies that
Japan used on Russia. In fact, last
spring when the British were attack
ing at Lens and the French under Nj
velle along the Aisne, the Germans
were whipped SO far as that partfcu-
lar battle was concerned. and were
ready to retire from northern France.
An order to prepare Immediately for
that retirement had already been is
sued by the German general staff. But
a bold front was put up The French
war department was bluffed into
thinking that the German line could
not be broken. The attack was called
off as a useless slaughter and the Ger
man front in France was saved. The
same sort of bluff may save the day

Former Topeka Star to Pilot Frisco
Club Next Season.

Old Topeka baseball fans have been
keeping the stove league fires going
this week by discussing the appoint
ment of Jerry Downs, former Topeka
star, to the job of managing the San
Francisco club of the Coast league
Downs was one of the first stars
Dick Cooley sent to the big show. He
was brought to Topeka by Cooley
when the latter had a Western asso-
citation franchise here. After being
the local keystone sensation for time,
Downs was sold to the Detroit club
of the American league for 81, 900, and
was member of the Detroit pennant
winning team of 1908. Later he was
traded to Brooklyn and then to the
Chicago Cubs.
Downs played in the American asso-
citation for a few years and then went
to the Coast league where he has been
cavorting for the last few seasons. His
elevation to a managership shows the
estimation the Coast league places on
his ability.

''PeOple Must Either Go On or

Germany's Only Peace Answer

London, Jan. 19.-Premier Lloyd
George addressing the labor delegates

Of the need for raising more men.
The prime minister said no democ-

Mr.. Lloyd George said that he and
President Wilson, without previous
consnltation-therew was no opportun-

There was no man willing to make
peace without complete restoration of
Belgium and reparation, the premier
said. From Germany there had been

Continuing the premier said:

President Wilson war aims had been
acclaimed thruout the entente allies
countries.
There had been hardly a voice of
criticism save from a few who wished
he had made more extreme demands.
The Socialists of France, Italy and
Great Britain, he said, had accepted
them as very fair general demands.
The premier said that Germany had
answered Never, to his demand for
a reconsideration of the wrong of AL
Sace-Lorraine, and had declared that
Germany would go on until Mesopo-
tamia and Palestine were restored to
the tyranny of the Turks. No single
war aims made by the British trade
unionists had been answered by any
German auxiliary. he added.
Prussiar AutOcracy Dominant.
Mr.. Lloyd George said there had
been no answer from Germany to the
recent statements of the entente DOW
ers on war aims. Field Marshal Won
