HOW GERMANY WINS VICTORIES
Germany has shown herself inferior to America and
Americas allies in diplomacy and in inventions, and
she has not proved herself superior to them in fighting
ability in bribery intrigue, deception and treach-
cry her superior efficiency must be conceded. And it
has been by these weapons that she has all her VIC
tories in the present Her success against Rus
sia from start to fnsh was the product Of bribery
and treason Not single victory the eastern front
way for it, The overthrow of Russia is not monu-
ment to German military prowess but to German
intriguing.
And the overthrow of Rumania was not accomplish
ed by military Germany bought up traitorous
officials at so much a head. She connived with the
traitors at Petrograd to cripple Rumania by withholding
supplies and thus she succeeded.
And so in Serbia Teptonic success was due to the
fact that the kaiser bought coed his brother-n-
law the king of Greece into breaking the treaty upon
which Serbia had the right to depend Not by fighting
but by intriguing Germany defeated the Serbians.
The Italian incident is too recent to need rehearsal
All the world knows that it by falsehood and de-
cet that the morale of the victorious Italian army was
broken and the way prepared for the advance into Italy,
The Germans drove them back not by lighting but oy
spreading false reports through the Italian ranks
Efficient yes, but chiefly efficient in ways OF which
other nations would be acknowledgements Journal

President Wilson, in his statement calling upon
every man. woman and child to pledge themselves
or before June 20 constantly and to buy regu
larly the securities of the Government, says, MAY
there be none unenisted that day!"
AS the President points OUT "This war is one of
nations-not of armes-and all of 1OO OOO 900 peo
pie must be economically and industriay adjusted to
war conditions this Nation is to play its full part in
the conflict"
Our Nation, not our Army and Navy only, is at
war; And that means that all of US actually fight
ing must do part.
That part consists in giving the Army and the Navy
all the support of which capable To do that each
one of US must first of all be producer to our maxi
mum ability and a consumer of necessities only, for
every bit of power and every particle of material
is necessary for the of the Army and Navy and
for the making of the things essential to citizens
AS maximum producer and consumer of
necessities only each of will be accumulator
of savings And these savings be invested in War
Savings Stamps with benefit both to the Government
and ourselves. GkiM

The New York Tribune recently said editorially
that Vctory is question OF MEANS, and then 1t went
on to list the means. These are:
First, the materials. ....
Second, the plants where materials are con-
verted by industrial processes into sinews of war.
Third, the labor to act upon the raw materials.
Fourth, the fighting man power in uniform.
Fifth, transportation.
Labor and materials, in other words, are what are
necessary to win the What, then Is the duty Of
all of US? Obviously what must do is to produce
all that possible and consume as little as necessary
and give the Government utmost financial support.
If we follow this creed, shall leave for the Gov
labor and materials for strictly war pur-
poses and shall accumulate savings for investment
in War Savings Stamps. Thus we shall help both the
Government and ourselves.

AMERICANS PEAR WOULD HELP
The Austrian drive is They opened up on that
front Saturday with sixty divisions and attempted
to break through the Italian defenses. They succeed
in crossing Uave river in three places but driven
back.
The commander in charge of the Italian troops re-
ported everything looking fine He said he only wish
ed he had two divisions of Americans He said that
they would first shake hands and then march together
into Austria.
The generals remark goes to show what effect the
of Americans the battle front has upon the
troops who have been battling the end for sew
eral years. 1t puts vim and courage into them
| and makes them want to carry aggressive war
rather than defensive We hope the general will
get his two American divisions and he does the Aus
