Car after car of lone men poured

HARD TO GET THE FACTS.

The present trouble with Germany
is getting the truth out of it. While
the war was in progress it's people
were kept deceived las to the posi-
bilities of Germany winning in the
great conflict and the government
adopted lying tactics in all of it's deal
ings.
Now that the war is over it is just
as hard to get the exact status of af-
fairs in Germany. The foreign secre-
tary is appealing for food for the peo-
pie of his country who, he says, are
starving, but special cable dispatch
to the New York World says:
German prof1teers who for nearly
four years have been boarding peces-
stiles are now flooding the markets
with hidden goods In consequence,
prices of food commodities in Ger
many have fallen nearly SO per cent,
while German housewives crowd the
market places buying all they can lay
hands on: Germany can now boast
more butter and more grease than at
any period of the war, while military
authorities are powerless to requisi-
tion stores from sellers behind whom
are hungry Germans"
This does not sound as if Germany
is without food 1t rather reveals that
there have been in Germany a class
of profteers more heartless and un-
principled than those in other coun-
tries and that now that they see that
other countries are going to send food
they hasten to ge+ rid Of their sup
plies.
; Feeding Germany may not be as big
job as it looks. That is, assuming
that the World in it's Paris special got
t. truth out Of Germany, which is
by no means a certainty.

FOR PERMANENT CONQUEST.

In his address to Congress in an
nOuncing the terms of the armistice,
President Wilson used these words:
"To conquer with. arms is to make
only a temporary conquest; to cNn-
quer the world by earning it's esteem
is to make permanent conquest"
OF, all people on earth Southern peo-
pie ought to know what this means,
Broken and hopelessly defeated upon
the battlefield where it had left its
best blood, the South was ready to
accept the result in good faith. 1t

portunity to adjust itself to the new

eaters, drunk with hatred, adopted the
spirit and craftsmanship of Thad Ste
vens and entailed half a century OF
unnecessary bitterness upon the couR-
try. Thank God that in the White
House today sits man who has the
wisdom to see beyond the turmoil OF
the moment AS Lincoln saw the vis-
ion of a reunited country based upon
mutual regard and human brother
hood, so Woodrow Wilson sees the
vision of peaceful world, based not
upon revenge and hate, but upon serv-
ice of victor to vanquished, upon the
esteem for victors wrung from the
vanquished by the justice the forbear-
ance and leadership of the conquerors.
We have trampled to utter dust the
military power of our enemies. They
lie helpless and bleeding at our feet
We have utterly disarmed them. They
can no longer trust the power of their
own might which has failed them.
They can hope for nothing now except
justice, stern and inescapable as it is,
but justice guided not by revenge but
by moderation and heIpfulness that
must again conquer them. We have
fought to show the world the better
way. Let us not lose the fruits CT
victory by surrendering ourselves to
the spirit which we have fought
against in our enemies: They took
the sword and died by the sword. Are
we and our Allies great enough to win
the greater victory? Mr., Wilson has
faith that we are. Can we have less?
