orleans on board, and prominent ones
at that, pulled off for some big movie
concern, or was it a subject for serious
thought and action
Do you doubt those facts that were
brought to light in Germans rela-
tons with Mexico to conspire against
the United States? Was that Zim-
norman note put-up job? Hardly.
We still believe that Mexico is infest-
ed with German agents that get the
information from representatives in
our own country and through cipher
codes and otherwise send it through to
their Kaiser. Is it not plausible to
believe that Germany would treat this
country in the same manner as she
has treated all the rest, or does she
hold in higher estimation. How
much more evidence do you want of
Germans right to rule the world? Cal
you picture in your mind broad
swath where the German army has
marched through some of our large
cities and prosperous country COM
munities, great buildings destroyed,
art relics junked, fruit trees cut
down, buildings burned, homes ruined
and families scattered? Pictures of
these conditions in Europe are mute
evidence of what has been done.
Oh, well, you say, there are plenty
OF other people to carry on this work
for the government they will see
that all the German agents are corral
led, that this country is put on a firm
basis where she will not have to fear
being undermined or suddenly sur
prised in an unprepared condition. But
| tell you that YOU are the one to put
this government where it belongs; you
form very important link in the
chain and you have numberless oppor
tunities to help. If we all get care
less, we might as well pal with Russia.
If you don't like the manner in which
this government is being conducted.
get behind it and put i. on it's feet.
Surely no intelligent person can see
any unjust demands in the Presidents
plea for peace or the terms he offers
to make peace on. And the Presi-
dent has said: "there is only one
choice for US; we have made it, This
is no time for factions to struggle
against one another-look at Russia
it means a loss of time, loss of AM
erican boys lives. Every minute is
golden. Plea after plea comes to the
commanding officers of military or
CARNATIONS, and the Generals get a
good percentage to help their boy out,
to send him home or some ,lncalled
for request is sent in by an indulgent
parent or relatives. Wen admit that
not all the requests are unreasonable,
but many OF them are. Your boy is
nut suffering as much as you think he
is; you must not give him too much
sympathy or write too consolingly to
him. After all, war mast take its
harvest, and your boy is just like any
other boys, we all must bear up and
take whate' er is dealt o.; to us. with
out complaint. The cause is Just.
