FEARS GERMANY MAY
WIN WORLDS TRADE

That Germany will win the war b!
trade victory if peace is made upor
the abdication of the Kaiser, even
with the enormous indemnities which
she will be compelled to pay, is the
burden of an argument put out in
pamphlet form by the American De-
tense Society and written by Charles
Stewart Dawson, chairman of the So
ciety's board Of trustees. He says,
in part:
"Germany's war is openly and
avowedly commercial war. She
started it, as he has repeatedly said,
for "a place in the sum- She seeks
commercial expansion. Neither is
her submarine campaign for the mere
pleasure Of numbering, but quite
avowedly for the purpose of diminish
ing the gross amount Of the world
tonnage.
Germany knows that once mill
tary operations are over it will be
impossible to keep the Allies together
for the purpose of insisting on COM
protection being enforced
against her, unless it be agreed upon
beforehand. She dread such an agree
ment, and, therefore, hurries peace
Even gigantic payments,
if stretched over hundred years, can
be advantageously made by Germany
if she be allowed to retain unimpaired
the commercial supremacy which she
has established by rapine, and she
counts on war weary world to
say, when the end comes, that these
are minor matters in
with what will mistakenly
be considered to have been a sue !
less, a mere military defeat Of her
lrmy. We should stand out for the
rehabilitation Of France, Belgium and
,ther lands by Germany's workmen

machinery NUT be taken to replace

propaganda? And to think that so many newspapers should wildly grab at this large hook with the small bait and rush to the surface with wood type headlines, showing the barb, as it were, stuck clear through their gills Any one who Is in touch with public sentiment in England, France and America, and who has followed the decla- rations of those three leaders, Lloyd George, Clemenceau and Wilson, and who has knowledge of German methods in dealing with all peoples, knows, or ought to know, that there can be but one way for Germany to take to reach the goal of peace, AND THAT IS THE WAY THAT BULGARIA. TROD: THE WAY THAT LEADS UNDER THE GRANITE ARCH OF UN- CONDITIONAL SURRENDER And Ger many must bend to pass under this arch! It is so built that no Prussian can rear back and stalk under it with his chest swelled out and his spiked helmet on his bullet head and his high heeled boots and jinging spurs and clanking sabre keeping tune to his naughty stride. So let us all try and overcome this foolish habit of getting all wrought up and excited over every stray bit of peace bait that is thrown from the windows of Pots dam palace for the allies to snap up in haste and choke over at leisure. When a real peace offer comes from Berlin there will be no mistake about it. It will come AF TER, and not BEFORE the last German is out of France, Belgium, Serbia, Rumania and Russia!
Bisbee daily review., 1918-10-09

That plan of permanent peace that rests upon a league of nations will be all right just as long as it Is to the interest of each one of these nations to maintain 1t and just as far as power of the majority of these na- tions have the power to carry 1t. It was only in 1914 that all the allied nations signed solemn and sacred and binding agreement not to make separate peace with Germany, and yet Russia violated that agreement and signed not only a separate but shameful peace It Is also to be presumed that the allies of the central powers signed similar agreement, and yet Bulgaria has violated it. And so 1t goes. Only the nation of power and preparedness can be sure of peace. The United States should by all means join this league of nations to enforce peace but no nation should fall into the error or commit the folly of supposing that this league offers a substitute for its own ability to enforce and keep the peace of the world. Human nature Is human nature, the world over, and in every age the same Racial pride and ambition and greed of gain will remain upon the earth until the millennium dawn It Is not enough to preach peace and prac- tice peace and promise peace, 1t Is necessary also to be always able to enforce peace. For this large armies are not so much of neces- sity as some reasonable system of univers- al training and partial national preparedness at all times for the possibilities of war.
Bisbee daily review., 1918-10-09

We have heard for three years or more so much rot about the low morale of the Prussian soldiers and how they were under fed and over worked and i'll clad and cared for, that the statement of an American sur geon who has had many hundreds of them from many different divisions pass under his care at field hospital, may tend to open our eyes to the real facts. This surgeon de- clares that the physical condition of these German soldiers Is excellent; that as rule they are stocky, bulky and better able to stand fatigue and suffering than the allied fighting men. He also found them we'll clad and in good flesh. Make no mistake about the German soldier Nature has given him tough and bulky frame for hun dreds of years past, and Prussian discipline has been in his blood for century and half He will stand lot of beating The hardest, greatest battles of the war are yet to be fought. This column, when the Prus- sian soldier IS mentioned, always thinks of a conversation heard in Chicago hospital one day in years gone by. The head surgeon and a young medico were discussing fever case. The patient was very low and the young medico was urging heroic remedy Let us put him in an ice pack, he urged; ''I hear that this method has been very suc- cessful in the German army But the old head surgeon vetoed the ice pack with de cision. 1t may do in the German army, he said, but this man has not the bulk and bull strength and brute constitution of Prussian soldier. An ice pack would kill him in ten minutes"

N This Peace Pime

It IS inconceivable how the people gen. orally, and especially certain newspapers, should have gone up in the air Sunday and Monday over the dispatches indicating that Germany was again asking for peace. Sew eral Arizona dailies got out extras Sunday night, and lot of people were all excited Monday over the matter. And yet even casual glance at the German proposal should have revealed that 1t was the same old piffle that Germany has been trying to put over for two years. ust what Ger many counted on when she made the pro- posal was accomplished. She got a lot of glaring headlines in the papers and excited lot of talk about how she was striving tor peace. Cheap advertising, this. Cut rates for the sale of spurious goods. Of course Germany wants peace by negotiation. This is her own chosen ground. She has just concluded such peace with the Bol- shevik of Russia and with poor, vanquished Rumania. She told both of these dupes that she sought no indemnity or territory; Whatever Is right, that's all we ask, soft ly said the German wolves to these sheep. Let us talk peace" Well, they did. And N1CIllldlly llCkCO llCli OOIlCS NlCdAl. 4NOW she comes to the allies and says she will agree to all the fourteen conditions laid down by President Wilson. Sure! But when it IS considered that the first condition was the evacuation of all occupied territory, it Is hard to see how she has agreed to these aforesaid conditions No. Germany still wants German peace. She wants to nego- tiate and dicker and barter and trade. She wants to come to the council table without washing her bloody hands, merely stipulat- ing that she will hold them behind her. Prince Max, her new chancellor and peace dove has already plainly stated that he does not even consider giving up Alsace and Lorraine to France. Then why, in the name of the nine gods of old Rome, Is he talking about peace! No real American will listen to any peace that does not restore the lost provinces to France without quibble or claim or string or reservation. And the worst of it Is, this peace drive is only the be- ginning In fact 1t has come away ahead of schedule. If people fall for this first little painted float and sinker and worm, what will they do when the desperate German junkers begin to really push their peace

THE PRESIDENTS FOURTEEN POINTS
 OF PEACE GIVEN

Following are the fourteen points President Wilson has announced as the only basis of peace which Ameri- ca will consider. 1-Open covenants of peace.
 2-4bsclute freedom of the seas. S-Removal of all economic bar riers.
 EGuarantees for the reduction of national armaments.
 5-Impartial adjustment of all CO., lonial claims.
 6-Evacuation 6E all Russian terri tory.
 7-Eyacuation of Belgium.
 S-All French territory to be freed and restored and reparation for the taking of Alsace-Lorraine.
 9-Readjustment of Italy's frontiers.
 10-Greatest opportunity for auton- omous development of the peoples of AustTia-Hungary.
 11-Evacuation of Rumania, Serbia, Montenegro.
 r2-Secure sovereignty for Turkeys portion of tee Ottoman empire.
 13-Establishment of an independ- ent Polish Slate.
 14-General association of nations to guarantee Integrity of small states.
 President Wilson in his speech of last September 27, with regaN to peace, said:
 First, the impartial justice meted out must involve no discrimination be- tween those to whom we wish to be just and those to whom we do not with to be just. It must be a justice that plays no favorites and knows no standard but the equal rights of the several people concerned.
 Second, no special or separate ir terest of any single nation or any group of nations can be made the basis of any part of the settlement which is not consistent with the common interests of all.
 Third, there can be no leagues or alliances or special covenants and understandings with the general anu common family. of the league of na- tions.
 Fourth, and more specifically, there can be no special, selfish, eco nCmic combinations within the leSgue and no employment of s<y form of economic boycott or exciu- sion except as the power of economic penalty by exclusion from the mar keSs of the world may be vested in the league of nations itself as means of discipline and control
 Fifth, all international agreements and treaties of every kind must be made known, in their entirety, to tine rest of the world"

THEY APPLY TODAY

These lines, written by Robert Southey, in 1914, when England weary and discouraged, contemplated peace with Napoleon apply even more strongly today than they did then:
 Who counsels peace at this mOmentous hour, When God has given deliveranee to the oppressed And to the injured power? Who counsels peace, when Vengeance like flood, Rolls on, no longer to be repressed When innocent blood From the four corners of the world cries out For justice upon the accursed head; When freedom hath her holy banners spread Over all nations, in just cause United: when with sublime accord Europe throws off the yoke abhorred, And loyalty and faith and ancient laws Follow the avenging sword?

A military critic declares that the four year battle of Ypres is now being fought for the last time Yes, the British have at last advanced eastward beyond cannon shot of the bloodiest piece of ground in the world. And this same critic declares that the Ger man army, fighting as well as it has ever fought before, is dangerous still, in spite ot the beating it has endured, and, on a shorter line, may be able to offer a stubborn de fense through the greater part of next year. This country cannot afford to relax its etfori for moment if it hopes to gain complete victory next year.
