But the things that roll off the lap l of the gods. after humanity has put it's destinies there sometimes are start lingly different from the expected | fruits of victory We fight war flor one thing, win the war, and get quite another thing. The great war now waging began in a dispute over spheres of influence, market extensions, places in the sun and heaven knows what of that sort of considerations. Great changes in these matters, of course, must come out of the war But bound aries and markets will fluctuate with the decades and centuries. The i'm portant change that will come out of the war-assuming that the allies win twill be found in the changed rela
 tiOns of men. The change will be so- cial and economic and they will be in stitutional and lasting. For generally speaking, such changes as approach fair adjustment of the complaints of the have nots' against the fhaves" in life, are permanent changes. Kings, overlords, potentates. politicians. capf- talists. high priests-masters of vari- ous kinds-find it difficult to regain lost privileges and perquisites. And in this war Germany stands clearly for
 the "haves." If Germany wins, au- tocracy will hood its losing ground all over the world. For the same autoc- racy in Berlin lives in Wall street, and in the city in London, and in the caste and class interests of Italy and France. But junkerdom in Germany alone among the nations of the earth rests on the divine right of kings that is the last resort of privilege Tn America we have the democratic weap- to hrpa ya1n 1ryI,a ever we desire to do so. In England they are breaking up their caste and economic privileged classes rapidly.
 A Moth eaten Relic.
 In France and Italy junkerdom is a moth eaten relic. And when junker- dom in Germany is crushed then at least the world may begin the new era, may indeed begin to fight itself free
 In the lands of the Allies the autocracy will be weakened by an allied victory. In Germany the junkers will be strong if they win the war, and their strength
 will revive junkerism all over the earth. If the Allies win, it will weaken | junkerdom everywhere. Germany it l is true, treats he working class better | than some of the Allies treat their working people. But it is with the | devilish wisdom of a wise slaveholder | who sees profit in fat slaves. The workers get certain legal bonuses. 1 They have economic privileges. not | democratic rights of free men under German rule. And the roaring of the big guns out at the front. seemed to Henry and me to be the crashing walls of privilege in the earth
 The Most Important Salvage
 Of course in this war, while some of the strange things one sees and hears | in Europe may pass with the dawn of 1 peace-woman, for instance. may re-
 turn indoors and come out only on election day, yet unquestionably most of the changes in economic adjustment
 have come to stay. They are the most important salvage that will come out | of the wreck and waste of this war.
 In England, for instance, the new bal.
 lot reform laws are fundamental
 changes. They provide virtually for
 universal manhood suffrage and suf- | frage for women over thirty upon
 something of the same terms as those provided for men. So revolutionary
