RUDYARD KIPLING
ON GERMAN CULTURE
If Hun Prevails Ideals OF
AN Free Democracies
Must Perish.

Folkstoae, England. Nothing else
under heaven matters to-day except
that the war shall go on to victory"
declared Rudyard Kipling here in a
striking and picturesque speech in adj
vocacy of war savings. The money
we loan to the Government helps to
set our land and our world free,
continued Mr.. Kipling. Our Sc
curity for our loan is not only the
whole of theBritish Empire, but also
the whole of civilization which has
pooled its resources in men, money
and material to carry on this war to
victory.
What is the personal aspect of the
case for you and me? We are fight
ing for our lives, the lives of every
man, woman and child here and
everywhere else.
1--WE are fighting that we may not
be herded into actual slavery, such as
forced by their arms in large parts OF
Europe.
1--WE are lighting against eighteen
hours a day forced labor under lash
or at the point of the bayonet, with

burned and mutilated in the public
streets. as has happened in this town
and in hundreds of others. And we
will go on fighting till the race who
have done these things are in no posi-
tion to continue or repeat their Of
Tense.
IF for any reason whatever we fall
short of victory-and there is no half
way house between victory and de-
feat-what happens to us? This:
Every relation, every understand
ing, every decency upon which civili-
cation has been so anxiously built up
will go-will be washed out. because
It will have been proved unable to
endure. The whole idea of democra-
(Which at bottom is what the
Huns fight against-will be dismissed
from mems minds. because it will
have been shown incapable of main
tanning itself against the Hun. 1t will
die: and it will die discredited, to-
gether with every belief and practice
that is based on it,
THE Huns ideal. the Huns root
notion of life, will take its place
throughout the world. Under that
dispensation man will become once
more the natural prey, body and
goods. of his better-armed neighbor.
Woman will be the mere instrument
for continuing the breed: the vessel
OF mans lust and mans cruelty; and
labor will become a thing to be
knocked on the head if ii dares to
give trouble, and worked to death If
il does not. And from this order of
life there will be no appeal possibility
of any escape. This is what the
Hun means when he says he intends
TO impose German kulture-which is
the German religion-upon the world.
This is precisely what the world has
banded itself together to resist.
1T will take every ounce in us; it
will try us out to the naked soul.
Our trial will not be made less by
the earnest advice and suggestions
that we should accept some sort of
compromise. which means defeat,put
forward by the Hun agents and con-
federates among us. They are busy
in that direction already. But be

 TRAFFIC INCREASING

AMSTERDAM Dec. 30 (By MaiD Passenger traffic revenues on German railroads in the third war year show on increase of 5.3 per cent over the record figure of the last twelve months of peace (August, 1913--July, 1914D according to the Norddcutsche Allgc- meinc Zcitung. In the first war year revenues fell off 32.1 per cent, anL in the second war year 21 per cent. As regards freight traffic this yielded an increase of per cent on the record figure reached in tEe year ending July 31, 1914. These figures include the re- ceipts from military traffic. which, it is decl ed taking the average of the three years formed only an eighth part of the total railroad income
 The revenues for the north of Aug ust I9l7. are especially quoted os showing the development of railroad traffic Compared with the correspond ing month of 1916, the passenger traf- nc showed m advance of 30G per cent and of Al per cent as compared With August 1913, the last corresponding month of peace.

If, therefore, we are to hope for a fur ther development of an international l life we must fight to the death Ger man pretcnsions.
 The second characteristic of modern
 European life has been the develop
 ment of democracy. Democratic ideas originated in England, They were ! brought to this country when 1t was which was hardly dreamed of in the 1 land of their birth. Thence they spread to France and through France to most of western Europe. The seeds of democratic ideas fell, however In 1 Germany among the thorns of auto cratic government and the thons sprung up and choked them. Just as i the French Revolution and the Ma poleonic wars brought democracy to most of western Europe, so the pres
 ent war has given it to Russia where
 autocracy in it's cXercmc form had
 been able to maintain icself
 We have therefore allied against
 German autocracy practically all of
 western Europe. together with Japan,
 Russia and the United States. If the Iautocratic governments of the central ! powers are successful in this war, de-
 mocracy will be judged a failure and
 the struggle and agony of centuries will have gone almost for naught.

of the remoteness of our geographical situation or the pacific character of our purpose The Germans of the present day, despise our capacity envy our prosperity, and are not inclined to comply with our desire to pursue the even tenor of our ways in the conti- nents which we have colonized and developed.
 We have further in German preten- sions a direct attack upon the kind of life which we have chosen to live. Two characteristics have distinguished the modern European life in which we have share. The first is internation- alisin, the second is democracy.
 Lnternatlonalism is the solution which we have been endeavoring and successfully endeavoring to reach, of the problems incident to the national state. The most noticeable phenome non of modern European political life has been the development of the na- tional state While the ideal of the national state has been only approM- mated, while all races have not been politically organized, and while some races have found a home in more than one state, at the same time the COCK istence of a number of politically SOW ereign organization has of itself been a denial of the idea of world domina- tion.
 Internationalism is the method which has been adopted for regulating the relations of these separate political or ganizations. Rules of conduct have been generally adopted to which all merbcrs of the family of nations have In the past rendered obedience The ideal of internationalism has of course not been completely realized, but enough progress had been made prior to the outbreak of the present war to JuSlly llle peilcI lIldt ct itdSOildl'lc ''I'- proximation to that ideal would ulti- mately be reached.

It has been observed that. although this continent is the new world in relation to its discovery. it is an old world, much older than Europe. in relation to the types of its animals and plants For example, the big trees of California are of older stock than any trees now growing in Europe. The question has been raised whether some of the races of Siberia and east ern Asia have not sprung from Amer ican aborigines. rather than that our Indians have come from that guar ter.
