War Lords Still Rule
BY j. w. T. MASON
Written for the United Press.

& Count Won Hertling has surrendered to the
kaser's militarists. The chancelOr's answer to
the war aims declarations of President Wilson and
Premier Lloyd George has been dictated by Ger
1nanys army commanders.
The spirit OF HOhenZOefn arrogance that defled
fhe world with ruthless summarizing is still the
guiding factor in German craftsmanship. The kaiser

Rutocracy from being forced to bow to the peoples

The deuded leaders of Germany who lightly de-
fled the United States to enter the seem now to
be under the impression that they about to win
Ia victorious peace.
i 1t is apparent that the Won Hindenburg- Luden-
dorff- Crown Prince clique has read into President
Wilson's and Premier Lloyd Georges peace invita-
tions the preposterous meaning that the entente
powers believe they are losing the No other
reason can adequately account for the new German
demands, suddenly exposed to view, that Britain
surrender Gibraltar and her other principal cOaling
stations as preliminary to peace
German militarsm as reflected in the present
rulers in the Hohenzollern autOcracy, has not yet
been crushed Count Won Herting has revealed
that the menace to the world Liberties still con-
tinues to exert its megalomaniac power in Berlin.
SO far, therefore, Count Won Hertling is concern
ed, the war must go on.
But simultaneously with the German chancel
lors declaration to the reichstag main committee,
Count Czernin, Austro- Hungarian foreign minister,
has made far cOnciliatory statement of war
aims to the Austrian parliament.
s Tt is impossible to attribute to chance the appear
of these different declarations of policies at the
same time. Count Czernin is not in agreement with
the German militarists. This can now be accepted
as a settled fact
Germany can no longer rely on her southern
neighbor for ungrudgng assistance in fighting the
war for imperialistic aims This fact may be des-
tined to play a vital part in compelling Count Won
Hertling to revise Germany's war aims in the near
future.

sagement of nearly five months at
the Garriclk theater, Chicago, and
earlier in the season played for six
months in New York City The pres
entor and central figure in the offer
ing is the inimitable Jack Norworth
who, as a light comedian and sing
er of topical songs, is without a peer
in this country, although he modestly
comedies the stellar comedy role to
Harry Watson, Jr., who for six years
has been the principal comedian with
the Ziegfeld "Follies." The Nor
worth revue is not a travesty on New

satire, with a laugh in every line,
of events that have been prominent
in the public mind during the last
year, and has won great favor in
New York. Philadelphia, Boston and
Chicago, and other large cities where
it has appeared during the past sea-
son.
In addition to Mr.. Watson and Mr..
Norworth, the cast includes Miss
Bette Parker, Miss Sue Creighton,
Miss Marjorie Poir, Miss Mary Jayne,

for good looks as well as singing and

NEW BIG PLANT
BURNED DOWN
Armour Factory at Hamilton Con.
sumed Early This Afternoon
by Fire Starting From
Furnace.

The new plant, commonly called the
Armour plant at Hamilton, burned
just after noon today, and was COM
pIeteIy destroyed.
The fire is said to have started
from furnace in the plant which
was highly combustibIe and burned
SO quickly that the Hamilton fire de-
partment failed to do much toward
stopping it. Not much is left above
the fundations.
The factory has been mystery
ever since it started as to its pur-
pose. 1t was known to be very
clc-s to the war board and engaged
on very important war work, still in
the experimental stage, but there
was no verification of various reports
as to what was its output. These
ranged from a gas to counteract Ger
man gas, to aeroplane metal parts
and a new gas for the American
army. It was intimated by the man.
agement that fertilizer was its pro-
duct, but nobody took this seriously.
1t was owned by the Armours OF
Chicago, and the loss will be prob
ably about $4,000 in money and in
caIculable in delay in it's war work.
