Damage Must BE Paid
On the question OF damages. the opn-
ion is unanimous they must be paid
to the last cent. The army has seen too
much Of the devastation in France and
Belgium to be content with less. But in
demnity in addition is somewhat DIT
ferent matter. More than once officers
pointed out that to ask huge sum from
the Germans in addition to the damage
bill, their own war debt, and the already
heavy. burden of ante-war taxation, was
simply killing the goose that might lay
the golden eggs, and would intalllbly
end by driving the German people to
Bolshevism and general repudiation of
all their liabilities.
For the Germans themselves, this
question of paying the bill is the prin-
cipal probleln--all. of them are trying
to put the blame on the other fellow
and to escape themselves. That un-
doubtedly accounts in large degree
for the separatist movement Of Ba-
varia and the Rhine provinCe-the in
habitants Of the latter explaining in
gentously that the imperial properties
mines, railroads, and land. might be
taken by the Allies in payment without
any objection on their part, provided
they are not overtaXed and are allowed

VIENNA formerly one of the most
Y brilliant capitals in Europe, is now
spectral city. From being the capital
of powerful monarchy 1t is reduced TO
the position of the capital of a small
German-Austrian republic. II has lost
its raison d'etre and virtually possesses
now far less political power than Munich.
BY the collapse of the empire Vienna
is left stranded. yet it cannot change
Its fare, cannct adapt itself to a more

The cosmopolitan population of this
derelict capital numbers 10000 while
the total population of the new state of
German Austria, including even the still
disputed territories, is barely 100000.
Economically German Austria simply
cannot maintain Vienna in its present
form. The capital drew ts life from
the big complex economic system which
is now rent asunder. Germar>AAustria
