No other reason can adequately ac-
count for the new German demand,
suddenly exposed to view, that Brit
ain surrender Gibraltar and her other
principal coaling stations as pre-
liminary to peace.
German militarism, as reflected in
the present rulers of the Hohenzollern-
ism autocraey has not yet been crush
ed. Count Won Hertling has revealed
that the menace to the world s hber-
ties still continues to exert its meelo-
maniac power in Berlin. So far, there
fore, as Count Won Hertling is con-
eerned, the war must go On.
But simultaneously with the Ger
nan chancellor S declaration to the
rciehstag main committee, Count Ger
min, Austro-Hungarian foreign minis
ter, has made Il Tar more coneiliatory
statement of war aims to the Austrian
parliament. 1t is impossible to attrih-
ute to chance the appearance of these
different declarations Of policies at
the same time. Count Czernin is not
in agreement with the. German miitar-
lists. This can now be accepted as
settled fact. Germany can no longer
rely on her southern neighbor for an
grudging assistance in fighting the
war for imperialistie aims. This fact
may be destined to play vital part
in compelling Count Won Hertling 10
revise Germany 5 war aims in the near
future.

New York, Jan. 25, = Count Won
Hertling has surrendered to the kais-
er's militarists. The chancellor s ans
wer to the war aims declarations OF
President Wilson and Premier Lloyd
George has been dictated by Germanys
army commanders.
The spirit of HohenzOllern arrogance
that defied the world with ruthless
submarining is stil the guiding fac
tor in German craftsmanship. The
kaiser intends to make at least one
more effort to save his autoeraey- from
being forced to bow to the people 5

who lightly defied the United States
to enter the war seem now to be under
the impression that they are about to

edly the chief factors in the hide
market in the United States and Swift

leather manufacturers, the report
stated.
Stocks of hides held by smaller pack
ers also increased SO per cent in 1917
over 1916.
