HOW GERMAN BAPTISTS ARGUE

Almost the first ray OF hight on the myS-
terry of the German religious psychology in
respect to the war comes at last from the
German Baptists. The Watchman-Examin-
er (New York. reports that several months
ago the Baptist Union of Great Britain and
Ireland addressed letter to the Baptists
of Sweden explaining their attitude to the
war and giving reasoned statement of the
case from the point of view Of the Allies
This was transmitted to the German Bap-
fists, and their reply shows how schoOled
the subjects Of the Kaiser have become in
parceling and docketng the properties of
their intellectual and religious life as well
as the elements of their material possessions.
The direct answer is not quoted by this
American Baptist paper, but we get the
gist of it, together with the effect it pro-
duces on their AngIo-Saxon brethren Of the
Baptist faith:
''This reply, which is signed by four of
the best-knoWn Baptist ministers and lay
men in Germany, opens with a striking ad-
mission which goes far to explain the atti-
tude of the churches in Germany to the war
and to their own Government. In princi-
pie, it says, I'VE keep politics and religion
apart We have not considered it our duty
as a church to be occupied with political af-
fairs The whole letter is really COM
mentary on these words The Baptists have
clearly taken as true, and without investi-
cation, anything and everything the Ger
man Government has told them. They re-

dered a vocal solo, which was we'll received
and Miss Loretta Sanders rendered very
appropriate instrumental solo. 70 all of
the above welcoming addresses and musical
renditions the Rev. Barber most feelingly
responded. Said he, Il want to become
identified with your city. I want to be
member of your clubs and organizations for
the uplift. | want to be help to human

Ject as a malicious libel on the Government
and people alike the statement that the
former has carried on warlike policy in
any way opposed to the will of the people
1.-The statement as to the causes of the
war is in line with this absolute reliance
upon the assertions of their Government.
The fault was entirely England s. The sole
danger to peace was her 'encircling policy
and her insistence on the 'two-Power naval
standard 1t was only when Germany was
faced by bitter necessity that she drew
the sword in defense of her existence The
statement of the British Baptists that Eng
land had tried for years to avert the danger
OF war and to reduce ornaments is charac-
terized as an unconscious untruth
1.-The most astounding part of the Ger
man Baptists' reply is their justification Of
the violation of Belgian neutrality, on the
double ground that respect for it would not
have kept England out of the war; and that
Belgian neutrality was a fiction. England,
is their astonishing assertion, is really re-
sponsible for the much Inconvenience suf-
fered by Belgium, for it was England that
prevented Belgium from accepting Ger
many's generous offer of guaranty of in
demnity and independence if she allowed a
free passage to the German army. 1t u.s.
therefore, they conclude, the duty of Eng
land, not Of Germany, to compensate Bel
GUM for the losses entaled by her refusal
This phrase, much Inconvenience. is the
only reference in the whole letter to the
atrocities of which Belgium has been the
victim.
'With regard to the intervention of
America there is not single word about
the submarine war and the outrages which
forced her to take part in the struggle
The reason assigned for her intervention is
that she saw no other way of saving the
vast sums she had lent to the Allies From
beginning to end of the document there is
no hint that Germany has done single
thing Of which she need be ashamed''
The British Baptist Union have sent

German letter are taken up and the argu-
ments refuted. Reliance to support their
case is placed on the revelations of Prince

A HUNDRED PER CENT AMERICAN

IT you see yourself grow daily thinner,
From your cook s idea of Hoover dinner;
If you had four Jumps Of anthracite
And gave your neighbor two last night;
If your pipes froze up and made leak
And you wade around in private creek;
And the plumber won't come for love or
money,
And still you pretend to think it s funny;
If your car gets stuck in twelve-foot drift,
And no one comes to give you lift
And you ride in street car la sardine,
And reach your work at ten-ffteen,
You must think of the boys in distant camps
And then fill up on Savings Stamps
If you we boarded money to take in show
And you re all dressed up and no place to go;
If you can let the mercury drop to zero
And not swell up and think you re a hero;
If your church is closed to save some coal
And you stand chance of losing your soul,
But grin some more and never let go,
And keep your religion at 10 below.
If your business profits swiftly diminish,
And still you re in this war to the finish,
And you grin and grin and work with will
For the one big purpose Of squelching "Bill';
If you can do all this, you re more than
man,
You re hundred per cent American.

How Wounded Jack 7ars
OfBntain Are Cared For

London, May 20.-(Correspond-
ence OF Associated Press)-There
are eleven hospital ships in the
British navy. these being entirely
distinct from hospital ships EN-
ployed by the army. In addition
there are number OF private
yachts, fitted out by their owners,
which have been taken over by the
admiralty for tn transport OF the
wounded over short distances.
A great deal of medical and surg
ical work has been done in hoSpi-
tai ships, both while acting as mo-
bile base hospitals to the various
fleets and while carrying wounded
The employment OF hospital ships
as mobile base hospitals enables a
fleet to use suitable bases without
regard to the question OF disposal
oi the sick and wounded, the long
transport of acute cases being re-
duced to minimum. But the hos
pital ships do not go to sea with
its fleet, because II is not prac-
ticable at sea to transfer sick or
wounded men from a fighting ship,
owing to dangers OF mine, subma-
rine or rough weather.
In all ships OF the navy the sick
berth is suitated in too exposed
place to be used during action. Con
sequently in wartime the main dress
ings, instruments and other appar-
atus, except bare neceSSarleS re-
qured from day to day, are dis
tributed between two dressing sta
tions below the waterline, one for
ward, the other aft. These stations
have special ventilation, lighting and
equipment. and are supplied with
hot and cold water Here the med
ical officers are stationed during
action, the wounded being brought
to them by stretcher parties during
pauses in the fighting.
In the battle of utland dress
ing station was completely wrecked
and the entire berth staff and the

officer in charge was knocked down
and injured, but he pulled himself

northern Texas fields last week. ~ were in the

80 barrels day.
Most of the wells in the Burkburnett dis
trict are in the shallow sands. But geoogistS
have said that Burkburnett, Brownwood and
