In the German Rcichstag on Satur-
day Deputy Matzinger, member of
the Centre party, protested against any
further supplies Of grain being sent
to Austria.
Deputy Wills, Socialist, declared
that a further reduction hi rations was
unbearable. Many people, he said had
no idea Of the misery prevailing among
the masses. Unemployment was in
crensing in Berlin and the wages were
insufficient to procure the necessary
food TO terminate the war, the
speaker added, would be greater
economic gain than would be the CON
quest of province.
Speaking later in reply to criticisms,
Herr yon Waldow said that there is no
question of n joint management Of
either the old or new crops in Germany
and Austria Hungary, but only indie
pendent management Of the stocks in
the three states on Identical princi-
pies. Herr Won Waldow denied that
Austria had been given anything from
the imperial grain or potato depart
ments, and said that only 5000 to
10000 tons had been sent to Austria
from the army stores.

by our perpetuation of the republics

icance. The life of the nation is at
stake. What are our duties in this
crisis? Speaking for Catholics of
this state and in the name of we'll.
nigh twenty million of the faith in
America, lay down as fundamental
the duty of service entailing sacrifice
, without limit in the cause of our
country, and our country is none 9th
err than the United States of America.
We are a party to the great world
war, not because we were war-crazed,
but because we we're forced into it by
! the unjust aggressiveness of a power
that without single reason took the
lives of American citizens, destroyed
our shipping, attempted to set limits
to our legitimate commercial life, and
in bloodthirsty blindness set at
naught our sacred national rights.
We are in it to win it; there is to be

justice is done to nations laid waste.

"On whom does our victory de-
pend? On the boys at the front,
many will answer, Yes, it depends
on them, but not on them alone. 1t
depends on the brave boys in khaki,
backed by united nation at home.
There never was and there never will
be any question of the bravery of those
who have gone forth, ready to make
the supreme sacrifice for their coun-
try. They have already given proof
of their valor along the banks of the
Marine and the vesle, at Chateau
Thierry and st. Mihiel, and will con.
tinue to show themselves the finest
fighters in the world under our own
Incompatible John Joseph Pershing.
Essential to victory, however is uni.
ty at home; unity of thought, unity of
loyal expression, unity of action.
Nothing would give keener delight to
the enemies of the nation than to see
us divided into opposing camps, torn
by strife, be it political or religious,
intent on fighting among ourselves in
stead of concentrating all our ener-.
