peace by negotiation, and they ac-

~
This is another characteristic Illus
tration Of German Ignorance of nom
Teutonic peoples. A large element in
Sweden has been bitter against the
government for the disclosures of the
use made by Germany of the Swedish
diplomatic representatives.. This ele-
ment has declared that the Swedish
nation has been shamed and must
above all things set itself right with
the American people. The large num-
her Of naturaliZed Swedes who are
now part Of the Army Of the United
States Is a further reason for con-
ciliating this country. 1t, therefore.
would seem tina. the Swedish news
papers which arc playing Germany's
game would follow conciliatory meth
DDS in order to conceal their real pur-
pose. Instead, under German inspira-
ton, they take directly the opposite
course and infuriate their own people.
1t Is not likely that the German peace
offensive will be strengthened by this
abusive campaign against the United
States.

America Is Fighting
A Battle of Law

This is big part we are playing in
this great war drama. The United
States will before peace comes create
a new world. The time has come
when we must rcco~niZe the fact that
we can no longer bind ourselves by
the traditions Of our forcfathcrs. We
can no longer live to ourselves in a
sphere alone and ignore the closer
relations with the rest of the world.
1t is impossible for us to continue
Our dream of peaceful isolation.
This fact was recently brought
clearly before the American people
when former Associate Justice Char
les f.. Hughes Of the United States
Supreme Court declared that the
time had come when we could no lon
ger live to ourselves, that history
is only beginning and the republic is
now obligated to create new world,
where law is to be supreme and force
only the instrument of justice.
"America could not" he continued
"if it would escape from its new
international position as member OF
the league of nations to prevent un-
scrupulous military powers from do
minating the world"
This is the new phase Of national
| development that we must consider.
In order that the purposes Of ou'
new mission in this world Of Christian
people may be successfully accom-
plishcd it is necessary that we sho"le
relegate ourselves to the backgrou1,
and make individual sacrifices.
On the last night Of the old yea
Harry Lauder, the famous Scotcl
comedian, asked Memphis audience
in a frank but kindly way what the.
had done to help win this war. "Col
lectively you have done much," h
said, "you have reached into you

urged to handle the foo dproblem
SO as to eliminate profiteering and Sc
cure equality of sacrifice" There
is likely to be a long and bitter dis
or this issue. A year ago
the conference reaffirmed by an over
whelming majority, approval of the
retention Of office by labor ministers.
Financial proposals have been sub
mitted by more than dozen socie-
ties. They include plans for sub
stantial levy on capital, a drastic in
crease of the income tax, raising

and the compulsory application of the

the conference by the executive COM
mittee. 1t is said to represent an
advance in the political mobilization
of the labor forces.
Three important newcomers among
the resolutions are: an amendment
- The law OF libel for the protection
of labor bodies against slanderous
literature and speakers; declaration
in favor of home rule in India; and a
statement that the time has come for
the teaching of an international langu-
age to enable workers of the world to
understand one another without need
