CLEARING UP OF WAR WRECKACE IS
 TASK FOR ALLIES
Time and Money Needed to Bring Teuton People to
 Their Senses.

Day oy day as the work of clearing vp Nreckage of the war proceeds it Secomes apparent that Abringing the Seople Of Russia and Germany to their senses is the big task that confronts she allies. So long as these nations Sre ending toward anarchism, even M isolated spots. the work of America snd the allies is not completed.
 The weeks that have passed since the Signing of the armistice show very conclusively that this Is going *o Ne 8 real job. The Bolshevists ere >till running amuck in Russia.

 Danger In Germany.
 Ind the German situation has not 1 Improved as was hoped. If German >evolts continue, if the Huns fail to agree, fall to get down to business and Nsist on fighting among themselves Sor pntrol, then the day must come when the allies will have to step in >~nG assert themselves in that country For t Is not going to be forgotten Nat Germany made the war and that N:e Herman generation that warmly ~nd even frenzidedly supported that 'Sar s still in Germany. And Ger Saay has reparation to make and the ~llies must see to it that there is or ter 70 that the just demands of France and of Belgium may be, met by those who profited from their ruin in the early days of the war. 1 Of course the German and Russian 1 Reds are not going to be wholly con- vinced by oratory, by public speeches, l by warning and by pleadings that they put their houses in order Ma tions are not swayed quite so easily where self-interest and ambition are the mainsprings. The German is a | stubborn personality to deal with. It i is going to require the menace of 1 force, the threat of allied occupation of all his great cities and ports to make him see the light. if one Of i those stubborn waves of resentment sweeps over the German people.
