In the reign Of Louis-P Philippe. a
Monsieur Terrat had been charged
with the duty Of fighting bugs In the
barracks of Paris. 1t must be believed
that the result was satisfactory, since
by virtue of an order of the general
inspector contracts were made in 1916
With Monsieur Terrat for the destruc.
ton of these frightful insects. Mon
sfeur Terrat demanded 90 confines for
each sleeping room. In case the first
eight with the bugs was not decisive,
and If he should have to begin again
after some years, the second operation
should cost only SO confines room.
Moreover, In these operations he de-
stroyed the insects In the arms-rack.

prisons. When he became old Mon.
sieur Terrat offered to communicate
The secret to the state for an indcm-
nifty. But this offer was not accepted.
The secret died with the proprietor
And that is why the soldiers of today

Peace q Part of
Grrmdn War Policy

One OF the foremost military
critics in Europe is Mr.. H
Sidebotham, OF the London
Times. In a cable to the New
York Sun, this able writer dis
sects the peace proffers of the
Germans and exposes its Sc.
cret purpose. He shows that the
political rot at home has affected
the armies, with the result tina
all of Ludendorff's plans have
gone astray. To help him out,
the new chancellor is dangling a
withdrawal prize before the
allies, disguised in the phrase.
ology of peace, but if it is ac-
copied it will prove a great boon
to Germany, since it will enable
the harassed armies to retire in
safety instead of under the pres
sure and imminent danger to
which they are now subjected.
I'm other Words" says, Mr..
Sidebotham, while trying TO
extricate the German troops
from the extreme danger that
threatens them. Prince Max
imillan is cannily attempting to
extort a species of blackmai,
from the entente. The enemy
says, in effect: In my retreat
the outrages of which l was
guilty in my advance will not be
exaggerated, provided you will
let me go. Thus, whether MAX
ing peace or making war the
PruSsian government is guilty of
the same crime against
International society. 1t cannot
dlsassociate peace and arson."l
Doubtless, this subtle view of
the Germans is fatllomed by the
President, whose reply to the
tote commits nobody and, GER
:dinly, does not help the foe,
whose eagerness for an armistice

The power which has hitherto

is within tie choice Of the Ger

Presidents words just quoted
naturally constitute a condition
