when the time comes to balance the
account the authors of the "frightful

. Justice Must Discriminate. ~
He urged, however, that the Amer
lean people discriminate between the
ignorant and the intelligent, between
the responsible and the irresponsible,
between the master and the serf.
"The principles on which general
peace will be made between the war
ring nations" said Mr.. Lansing,
have been clearly stated by President
Wilson. These principles Of justice
must guide those charged with the ne
gotiation of the great treaty Of peace
and must find expression in that mo-
