and they have lost heavily in the last
few days, particularly on Monday and
Tuesday, when their gains were
smallest. .t..5
French experts now anticipate that
the Germans will attempt to break
through somewhere else, possibly be-
tween Noyon and Montdidier, with the
object of conyerging their advance
toward Paris, although it is not i'm.
possible that the enemy will attack
in a totally different sector. The
proximity of Paris in this case, how
ever, may Indicate departure from
these tactics.
The attitude of Paris in facing the
present ordeal is inspiring the most
glowing eulogies in the British press,
which pays fervent tribute to Premier
Clemenceaus recent speech as OK
pressing the invincible spirit of France
and affording impressive evidence of
the mutual confidence of the allies
and reliance in the growing might
OF America. The newspapers de-
clare that M. Clemenceau also spoke

clared that France would never yield.

propaganda. We do say that it is ident-
| ical in terms with the German pro.
paganda with which the American PEG.
pie are now quite familiar.
In the seventh paragraph, Mr.. Baer
says: why should the United States
aid England or any other country in
their imperialiStic deSlgnS?" adding "If
the German people and government are
now willing to settle this war on the
basis of the demands of our govern
ment we should no longer continue to
war. We cannot know that we are not
sending our young, strong, capable men
to die in the trenches, not for demo
cracy but for imperialism unless the
things for which they fight be explicitly
specified" Here again we find the un-
just inference and language which have
no place in American literature at this
time.
In the fourteenth paragraph Mr.. Baer
says: In waging this war it is we'll we
bear in mind that any cause which will
not stand the light of truth cannot and
should not prevail" Here again we
have another unjust inference, another
question mark, another form of Ian
guage in inuendo which has no place in
American literature.
Permit us to call your attention to the
fact that while in your "war Program
and Statement of Principles" you make
IndAy Ue1lduuS upon our associates IN
this war across the seas. YOU MAKE
NO REQUIREMENTS of GERMANY.
One who reads your "War Program and
Statement of Principles" might readily
infer that Germany is a greatly abused
nation, and not at all responsible for
this terrible war and ready and anxi-
Gus for peace if only the American gov
eminent would consent to peace. The
fact that you make so many demands
upon the allies AND NO DEMANDS UP
ON GERMANY may explain the reports
we receive that many men of known
pro-German leanings have been very
quick to join your organization and are
very conspicuous in its meetings.
It is true that you count among your
membership a very large number of
thoroughly patriotic men, but we can
not believe that they have thoroughly
read and analysed your War Program
and Statement of Principles"
We feel sure that it will be clear to
every patriotic American that such lit
erature as this should not be distributed
in Nebraska at this time and we re-
specially protest against it's circula-
ton.
Organized effort to divide Americans,
separating men in the country from men
in the towns, when they should be I'M
tied is one common purpose, is a dis
tinct embarrassment to our government.
We have the pitiful tragedy of Russia,
with the consequent damage it has done
to the cause for which we are fighting,
as startling object lesson along this
line
And the tragedy Of Russia lies not in
that she deposed the czar, but that
agitators in the pay Of the German gov
eminent, in conjunction with the ex-
treme radical socialists among the Rus
SLAMS, instituted a propaganda under
cover of their new found freedom which
deceived the people with promises Of
wealth and ideal social conditions, so
Morris tribune., 1918-03-01

that the overthrow of the provisional
government was effected. The result is
that the people have ceased to produce,
the soldiers have ceased to fight, the
wheels of the factories are still and
Russia, the land of undreamed-of Dos
sibi1ities, lies PROSTATE and helpless to-
day.
1t seems that the great reverse in
Italy was due not so much to the super
iority of the Austro-German arms as to
the fact that the socialistic group in
Italy, always encouraged by the pro-
German element in their population,
were allowing themselves to be divert
ed from the defense of their country in
to quarreling among themselves. The
result is that Italy lost in a few weeks
all that she had gained in two years of
heroic fighting and more besides
It remains for the people of America
to determine whether the tragedy of
Russia and Italy shall become the
tragedy of this country as well
Well-meaning, but misguided Ameri-
cans may do the country quite as much
harm at this time as the paid agents of
the German government. Any agita-
ton among the people at this critical
time becomes dangerous. We ought to
be aware that we have German agents
in our midst and in places where we
least expect them, who are quick to take
advantage of any opening that will as
sist the cause of their imperial master.
Social and political agitation provides
the most fertile fields for their opera
lions in this country
Reports we have received concerning
the work of some of the organizers of
the National Nonpartisan league, taken
in connection with it's literature, are not
reaSSuring from the American stand
point. Some of the private conversa-
tions of these organizers are not of the
character that should be INDUCED in by
thoroug h-going Americans at this time.
Some of them seem to be much more in
terested in the success Of the socialist
party than they are in the triumph of
the American cause.
There is only one slogan for Ameri-
cans at this moment, and that is: win
the War"
