.IDOLATRY THE FUNDAMENTAL
 GERMAN EVIL
Lord Robert Cecil Says They Have Set Up a Craven Image
 For Themselves.

London, Jan. 18.-HThe fundamen- said Lord Robert Cecil in a statement fer the Associated Press today. ''They have set up for themselves a graven image, just as truly as did the wor- shippers of Baal against whom the prophets of the Bible preached.
 'Germany's idol is the state. They place the state above religion, above morality, above all laws of God or Man. They relieve that any act is justified which advances the interests of the German state, however base that act may be, however immoral however inconsiderate of the lawful rights Of others.
 Otto Kahn, himself a German by crigin, has defined this state-idoIatry as the demoniacal obsession of pow er-worship and world dominion
 '4This idolatry is at the bottom of our whole fight against Germanq. T. is the secret of the whole revolting list of Outrages and atrocities which Germany has committed against the civilized world. The violation of Bel gium, the Armenian atrocities, the unspeakable horrors of submarine warfare, all these are the outcome of g. creed which holds that no laws of rlc rality are binding when the de- fense of the state idol $ at stake.
 ''The results of this violating of the foundations of morality by Germany are bound to be colossal and far reaching. They mean the degeneracy of the whole German structure, and the effects are already seen in the wave of crime and immortality which 1 fs sweeping over Germany. So long as the governing classes are infected with this doctrine there is no limit tC the wickedness and cruelty which will be put into execution. It means the undermining ultimately of the whole fabric of their civilization. This is what President Wilson has foreseen This is a reason for the determination oi President Wilson and the leader. of the Allies on both sides of the wa ter to carry this war through, what ever the cost, in order that the world T ay be a fit world to live ir.
 '"The Lansdowne letter has beer thought by some to indicate some weakening of determination on the ] Ee1l u tI11S COIuIllIy, oO4l1C Sl14!SG OI attitude. I believe any such impres- sion is a profound delusioE. know il is delusion as far as the actual gov ernment of England is concerned. and believe that the British people as ( whole, including Lord Lansdowne himself, are more determined thar ever to bring the WET to victoriou: conclusion.
 q see that it is being alleged witt a. certain degree of plausibility that there are many points in which Lort Lansdowne is in agreement with President Wilson's message. That may be so. But in the case of the Presi- cents message there breathes through every line not only determination tc win-for in that there is no difference between the two men-but also a cer- tainty of victory. President Wilson: message has an inspiration of leader ship which Lansdowne's letter lacks

WORK LATEST CHANCE
 OPEN TO WOMEN

Enrolment of women in engineer ing departments of American univer- sites and colleges, reflects the chang ing demand for women in industry At the Kansas State Agricultural Col lege, there are 15O women studying to become electrical engineers. Clarence Reid, professor of electrical engineer ing at the Kansas Agricultural Col lege, says:
 Women are being employed as power plant operators in the large central stations of Europe, and have been found entirely satisfactory None of the machinery in these stations is operated by hand, but is all controlled by various forms of electric motors, set into operation by the touch of
 button or by electric magnets or air pressure, or controlled in some man. ner so that physical strength is nos
 at all necessary. Work of this kind l is far less exhausting than many i forms of work in which women are
 now engaged, for central station oper-
 ators may use seats and have more
 variety of movement in their work. | Desirable qualifications for enter | ing upon engineering study comprises
 ability in mathematics and interest
 in scientific study"

NORWEGIAN FEELING
 AGAINST U. S. IS GROWING

Christiania, Jan. 18.-FeeIing in Nor way against America and to less de- gree against the other Entente Allies is growing bitter. It is repotTed here that America demanns the stoppage of Norwegian exports to Germany in
 return for shipments of grain to Nor
 way, but refuses to guarantee or promise Norway any supplies.
 The Norwegians are asking why they should offend Germany by cur taiing~ supplies at the bequest of
 America, and also risk being left empty-handed by America, after all. Reports that Denmark is receiving provisions and other goods from
 America are received with amazement and some anger. The Norwegians say it is an open secret that the Danes have fed Germany during the whole period of the war, while the Norwe-
 gians claim to be comparatively in nocent, Yet, they say, Denmark is favored by America and the Allies and they ask why. The Germans are making most of the opportunity for propaganda.
