No Ponce Without Victory

or course Germany is willing to discuss
~ peace with her enemies upon basis Of
the Brcst Litovsk treaty. Anybody who has
any appreciation OF the plight in which that
government now finds itself can understand
the eagerness with which it would grasp such
possibility. Anybody that such a
peace would to the Kaiser his throne
would give the military party which sur
rounds and supports him new lease upon
lte and would make him conqueror instead
OF a defeated and discredtcd sovereign.
The German government dares not return
to its people empty-handed after all the sacri-
fees which it has eXacted of those people.
IL dare not say to them that it has failed
inglorously i'll every ambitious enterprise
which il has undertaken. and that ii has
widowed millions of German women, orphaned
millions of German children and destroyed
billions of dollars OF German wealth, for moth
ing at all. To do so would he suicidal An
indignant nation would rise i'll its might and
Danish such government When it realized
its bankruptcy, when it realized that the
whole world had turned against it. when it
realized that il must suffer for centuries to
como because Of the barbarity and ruthless
ness OF its reigning dynasty, the German
nation would be utterly insane if it did not
cast out such government.
The power i'll Berlin probably knows this
more certainly than any other group OF men
on the face OF the earth. They know they
must keep on lighting to save. not the nation
alone, but TO save themselves. They know
by now that they face to face with an
unCompromising and determined force from
without. They must know, if they have not
lost their minds, that this will go on
until France has been given her provinces.
until Belgium has been restored, until Italy
has been satisfied and until Great Britain
has been relieved Of the menace Of German
miiitariSm.
In such situation. they undoubtedly are
prepared 10 make terms along these lines
provided only that they may keep their hand
upon Russia's throat and arc able to show
to their suffering people that they have an
ncyed a new empire. Nor is it any wonder
that peace feelers continue to be thrown out;
trail governments are asked to sound out the
allies. All this has happened before; it prob
ably will happen many times more
There viii be no peace with Germany as
long as Russia is in her grip. She must with
draw 10 her own frontiers. She must recon
Gle herself TO living her life within her nat
ural boundaries. Her ales-Austra and
Turkey-must release the oppressed peoples
now dominated and butchered by these gov
clnmentS. 1t is not enough that concessions

President Wilson. the spokesman OF the
allied powers, has told Germany in plain and
UnmiStakablo terms what sort of peace she
may have. Until the German government is
ready TO accept such conclusion, the war
