PREMATURE PEACE NOT WANTED

The collapse of Bulgaria inclines many to the
belief that Germany may seize upon the oppor-
tunity to negotiate premature peace more adj
vantageous than should be accorded that coun-
try.
The majority of the people of the United States
now insist that the fight go on until Germany,
her rulers, people and armies surrender uncondi-
tionaiiy. This state of determination was reach
ed after it became clear that the Huns will not
consider any other termination of the war
German defeat-fnal and decisive.
Anxious as we all are for the war to end, the
world does not want to begin preparing for an
other war Immediately after the peace confer
encey and that. in all probability, we must do if
the Huns are not beaten into unconditional sur
render
We do not want to sit at the peace table and
GUMS freedom, Serbia's, Rumania's, Frances,
[taly's, Pussia's, Montenegros.
We do not WIT to talk then about the restora-
ion of lands devastated by the huns.
That is not the time to barter with Germany
Pver her paying the price for the she started,
nat price being reparation to the peoples she
has harmed for the damage she did them.
We do not want to have to treat with Ger
many on the subject of German militarism and
Iun power lust
And if fight until the Huns surrender un.
additionally we will not have to do those things
We bury German militarism and greed
Without asking the kaiser's permission.
We compel Germany to free all soil she
as taken by conquest and all people she has en-
layed.
When Germany surrenders Internationally
ne peoples who love liberty, who believe in the
rinciples of democracy, who respect the rights
other peoples and other nations, will write the
erms of peace and will dictate the things Ger
aany must do and must not do.
If the allies are unable to do this, the war will
ave to be fought all over again. All the lives
hich have been sacrificed will have been given
vain All that we have done our children will
ave to do-and more.

WAR SPEEDS NATURALIZATION

L
War speeded up tremendously the department
of labor's naturalization work.
Within few months probobly 100000 men,
members of the nations military forces, have
been given the full rights of citizenship and
there are now in France perhaps many more
to be naturalized there.
This mighty task, unique in the history of the
bureau Of naturalization, has been productive Of
many inspiring instances of patriotism on the
part of men who, though of alien birth, have
shown passionate devotion to Americas ideals.
To illustrate the wholesale manner in which
naturalization is carried on at Camp Hancock in
one week 1000 men were given the oath; at
Camp jackson, 1900; at Camp Sheridan, 500 in
one day. Thes care instances typical of what is
going on all the time in every camp in the coun-
try. At Camp Lee about 4,3O0 men, all told, have
been naturalized through the process, and
additions of about 1000 monthly are expected
while the draft calls continue at their present
rate.
The law not adopted in time to reach them
all, for the arrangement providing for the natur-
alzation of men in the military service was not
enacted until May 9. By that time from 100000
to 100000 men had gone overseas with the Amer
lean expedtionary forces. It is impossible to
estimate the number who will be naturalized in
France, but it is true that in the regular army
during the period of voluntary enlistments many
foreigners were received.
The naturalization process went into being
promptly on the passage of the law, and small
groups of men were naturalized at Savannah, Ga.
| as early as May 16. By May 20, however, when
it was put into general effect many of the camps
had been practically cleared and the men who
had been trained in them were already serving in
France.
Preparations under way for their nat
uralfzation there Most of them probably will be
Americans with full rights of citizenship before
( they reach the firing line

TANKS.

After all it is tanks, the things of which we
have talked laest, of which we have known
least, that have annoyed the Germans most sue
cessfully.
The element of surprise which has entered into
their use has been as effective against the army
of the Hun as the destruction which the travelling
forts have wrought.
We have made great how-de-do over winning
the war in the air, without entire success. We
have tried to starve em out and they still fight
We have met poison gas with poison gas and
flame with flame.
But when we turned tens of thousands of
tanks against them all unexpectedly and syn
chronized their maneuvers with the marvellous
strategy of Foch, they turned tail and ran. as
they never ran before.
1--WE have already pointed out the enviable Sc
crecy observed in the manufacture of armored
tanks and the training of their crews, which now
number not thousands but tens of thousands
says the Cologne Gazette. 'To these must be
added the increase in the number of guns, mine
throwers, flame projectors, machine guns, gas
No proof is necessary that German industry is
unable to accomplish this in similar quantities.
Especially as regards the armored tanks, there
is no doubt that the numerical superiority is on
the side of the enemy and that he is bound 90
utilize it to the utmost"
Tanks are proving big factor in winning the
war.

Won HINDENBURG's FEARS

Won Hindenburg has told the German people
BIT to fear the Yanks..
The adnlonition, no doubt, is based upon his
IN belated conviction that the Yanks are the
les to be feared.
They are now substantiating his realization
|d belief.
But Won Hindenburg really doesn't fear the
anks-he fears the personal consequences of
led victory, which the Americans have made
'rtainty.
He fears retribution. He fears the awakening
erman people. He fears the might of America
d the right of her cause
Won Hindenburg has brain power but his main
wer-the confidence of his countrymen-is
Inning. He's slipping-and knows it, and
eads that day when all Hunland will know it.

''Personal Liberty" Special.

In commenting on the much
used term, personal liberty"
the Christian Science Monitor of
Boston. Mass. writes as follows:
In recognition of the business
of the protests made by passen-
gers on a midnight suburban car
out of Providence, r. l., the rail-
way company put on a special
car in which all men under the
influence of liquor were re-
auired to ride. The idea was to
save sober and peace-loving per-
sons from the annoyances of
proximity to those who were dis
orderly. The railway company
carried out its program. with the
heartiest sort of approval from
that portion Of the public which
is in the habit of conducting it.
self with respect to the rights of
others: but loud were the pro-
tests from the new special.
While a person under the infm-
ence of liquor had no objection to
annoying everybody in his vicini-
ty who was not Of his convivial
habit, he objected strongly to be-
ing herded with others of his
own taste. In short, intoxicated
persons objected to the presence
in their vicinity of intoxicated
persons. Thus was the personal
liberty argument against prohi-
bition illustrated in its full alb
surdity. The special was avoided
by all who could pass the stern
inspection of the motorman and
conductor of the vehicle for the
orderly. Indeed. a reputation
for travelling in the special be-
came obviously something not to
be desired"
