Junkers Take Hope.

In every way possible certain OF the
junker elements today are striving
to mold public sentiment against the
allies. and there is certain well de-
fined reason. If they can succeed in
obtaining some sembiance OF support
in their efforts and inflame the mind
of the average German to sufficient
extent, then there is better chance of
carrying out the much desired Junk
er counter revolution, which. as I
have cabled, Is In process of planning.

Huns Hate q. S. President,

LAS matter of fact, the Germans
hate President Wilson. They believe
that they would have won the war had
it not been for Americas chief execu-
tive. They believe that they are hated
less by the Americans than the French
and British. On the whole, however.
Germany today considers herself un-
beaten, and after comparatively brief
time will be able to resume her place
as great menace
In order to create further an in
tensified feeling of hatred among the
German peoples for the allies. which
hatred incidentally may be used to
the junkers' advantage al later date,
doctors of Germany have joined a
campaign to impress upon the people
the tremendous human losses suffer-
ed because of the allied blockade. 1t
is specifically stated there are rea-
sons to doubt the figures that 763,-
s99 Germans died during the course
of the war as the result of their in
ability to get food because of the
blockade. In this connection it is par
ticularIy interesting to note that dur
ing the conflict the high officials in
Berlin consistently camoufiaged NOR
tality statistics for fear that they
might have, to admit the evil effects
of the blockade.

! PARIS, February 15-Ostentatious
lamentations on the part of certain Ger
man officials and peoples that Germany
| is prostrated: that the old Germany has
passed forever: that she is completely
at the mercy of the world; that the al
lied powers should show leniency and

of peace terms, are taken for what they
are worth in Paris-and that not much
| The statement of allied powers and the
United States who are busiiy engaged in
/ framing the various phases of the peace
| terms to be presented to the central
powers and their allies are fully cogni-
zant of the fact that these inspired ut
/ terances are designed to create pity in
the hearts of the one-time enemy and
are but camoufiaging the true situation.
Huns Cultivate Scorn.
| Instead of humility in Germany today
! there is being cultivated among the
German peoples themselves utmost
scorn for the allies and their every en-
deavor to mitigate Germanys trying
conditions Such official Investigations
as have been made plainly show that
the German peoples yet consider them
selves unbeaten and that they still are a
great potential force TO be reckoned with
in case they chose to defy the allies in
| the imposition of peace terms.
The German is miSinterpreting such
| leniency as may be shown in the ap-
plica tion of armistce terms as fear
on the allies part that they should
not press Germany too far. When
food relief is talked of German offi-
cialdom strives to make it appear
! that this is an Offering of peace on
the part of the allies and indicates

Say Allies Cannot Strike Further.

Whether or not the Germans have
taken courage in the rehabilitation
of nearly 100000 allied and Ameri-
can troops cannot be stated, but the
that the allies are impotent to strike
| further. intimating that the French
and British armies would revolt be-
fore continuing the struggle. Ameri-
can conditions are tending toward
chaos and the hand of the United
States would be paralyzed, they de-
clare. The fact that the allies have
refused to make war upon the boil
shevists is a sign of their military
weaknesses, 1t is charged.
Members of the government which
have professed such democratic ten
denotes and desire to abide by the
fourteen principles enunciated by
President Wilson are known to be dis
cussing war If the conditions of peace
are too enerous- That harsh terms val

Stronger Than Ever"

Entente statesmen have more
correct estimate of Gerruany's future
| possibilities, and assiduous attempts
to represent ourselves as more beaten
than we really are will not deceive
the enemy. On the contrary, proud,
open insistence of our unconquerabte
power can only contribute to setting
limits to the enemy's brutal selfish
ness and to inspiring him with fear
of our coming revenge. There should
be uttered fsarlessly the seemingly
audacious conviction that, despite all,
Germany is now stronger than ever
In order to revive morale among
certain elements of the German peo-
pie who are not SO sure of Germany's
ability to avoid a peace which will be
deemed hard, certain sections of the
press who still cling to the old junker
ideals and who, incidentally, may be
expected to foster any counter revolu-
luton are declaring openly that the
allies are now SO weak that If Ger
many dared oppose the conditions of
peace being drafted in Paris she could
do SO.
