The Squeal OF The Stuck Pig


Outcries are coming thick and fast
from Germany against the terms o.
the peace treaty. Some of them are
softly reproachful, some virulent, SOME
profane, some defiant. All this was TO
be expected. It will be some time yet
before the German mind and spirit
will adjust themselves to the fact of
defeat and military impotence. Mean
time the stuck pig is due to squeal.
1t dosen't matter a greatly wheth-
er or not the present government has
ordered its plenipoteniaries to Paris
to refuse to sign the treaty in its pres
ent form If the Ebert Scheidman
government balks it will be succeeded
IN time by government that will yield
because it will comprehend better the
necessities of the case.
The Allied powers will not cringe
before a Ludendorff who says if this
treaty embodies the fourteen points"
America can go to the hot place. They
will not be frightened into retreat by
a challenging Ebert, or by a Scheide-
mann who, referring to. the book Of
terms, said "this dreadful and murder
Gus document must not become the
future code of law; or by vocifefous
German press styling it la "bruta
peace of force" or by noisy demonstra-
tors in the larger cities pointing warn

If man were wrecked on an island
and should find there a million dollars
worth of gems and yet had no food
to eat, the money would be mockery.
France is in need of supplies, even
more imperatively than of money.
More than $4,000 tractors and plows
were scrapped in northern France N
the German attacks. The Centenary
proposes to take from America on
relief ships new tractors, plows, and
other agricultural implements. The
milk cows which furnish the living,
and in many cases, the income of poor
families were carried off by the Ia
vaders. The Methodist Centenary in
tends to do its share by sending cows
20 France to replace these. Sheep al
so will be sent. There relief ships
will be sent this summer, the first
one starting July /. Definite villag-
es near Chateau Thierry have been
assigned to the Methodist Centenary
| leaders for the purpose of reconstruc-
ton by the building Of social centers,
orphanages and churches. In COM
munities thus assigned the responei-
Lilly rests upon the Methodist Cen
tenary alone. 1t pledges to carry
through its program thus assuring
that the work will be done.
Americanization of foreigners is one
!. of the necessities in solving the indus
trial unrest in the United States, and
large sums will be spent to furnish
teachers and found churches and
schools which will secure this result
Scattered throughout the union are
thousands of rural communities where
there are church buildings but no min.
listers, and places where the buildings
are without equipment. The Centen-
airy will accomplish far reaching re.
suits in reviving the rural church
where needed, in establishing rural
social centers, and in some places il
eliminating certain churches where
denominations overlap and where nc
church is doing the right kind Of
work.

100000. If the total is over subscribed
the excess will go to hospitals, the re-
tired ministers, the Woman's Home
Missionary Society and the Woman's
Foreign Missionary Society, the
Boards of Education and Temperance
and other agencies which are already
designated.
Not only are Methodists interested
in the success of the Centenary but
all other denominations, for the Cen
tenary viii become part OF the in

contribute but every church, even
those in the congested parts of our
great cities among foreign popula-
lions. In India and China where per-
sons labor for only few cents day,
gifts of grain, jewels and live stock are
being made which in their total re-
suits reach large sums and are the re-
suit of extreme sacrifice in giving.
Every foreign country in need and
every part of America, rural, industri-
al, suburban and city will be benefit
ted by the gifts.
The goal of $105,000,000 was fixed
not because it was a clever guess as
tb. how much money could be OBJ
tanned from the church constituent
cy, but as result of detailed survey
of all the fields. The number of new
churches, institutional centers, par
sonages, hospitals, and industrial
farms and the workers needed was de-
termined with the same accuracy that
an architect prepares his blue prints.
Of the total, $4O,OO0,0O will be
expended in home mission work ii
the United States and in its depend
encies; $40,000,000 in foreign fields
and $25 100000 in definite after-war
reconstruction work, one half in Eur
ope and one half in the United States.

ing fingers at a possible Bolshevist
avalanche.
Underneath all this clamor is SOL
emn understanding by intelligent Ger
mans that their country is at the mer-
CIV of the victors in the war and a
consciousness that the peace terms,
harsh though they may seem in sum
are mild enough compared with those
the German junkers and militarists
had in mind when they brought the
war upon the world. 1t is the sober
thought of this more quiet element
in Germany that will bring about in
time the signing of the treaty.
The Independent Socialist party III
Germany takes the sensible view OF
the situation. 1t does not relish the
peace terms, but it apprehends that
the choice concerning them is des-
peratly limited. Some of the sequels
of refusal to sign, it says, are that the
German prisoners of war will be re-
tanned; that the victors control Ger
many's raw material districts, and
that Tightening of the blockade is
easy, with consequent increase OF
unemployment and hunger. The stat
