SPEED UP OF WARK WORK
PLEDGES Is NECESSARY

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. Aft every
one who subscribed money in the
United War Work campaign last Mo-
vember would pay up their pledges
the work OF all seven of the partici-
rating welfare agencies could 60 on
full blast to the end, according to
r. H. King, director of collections
for the Southeast military. depart
nlent in the campaign. Mr.. King "
urging all who have made pledges
but have not paid, to do so this week
all collection workers being ordered
to speed up collections.
Some Of the seven welfare agencies
are short 6f funds with which to fin-
ish up their work but If all those
who subscribed would pay, those orr
ganizations would have no cause to
worry.
It is a noteworthy fact that Eng
land had. her troubles in the same
way. It was decided that the war
welfare work with the English troops
in foreign fields must 60 on at all
cost so there was no alternative but
for the English to run another cam
paign this summer for several mill
lion dollars to finish the welfare
work.
All efforts possible are being made
in America to avoid another cam
paign by getting those to pay who
have thus far side-stepped the pledge.
The work for the American troops
yet to be demobilized must be car
ried on If the requests of President
Wilson and General Pershing are
needed. The Army of Occupation
must be looked after and welfare
workers must be kept with the Amer
ican sailors, according to Mr.. King

Eduard Bernstein in the Vor-

day, breaches to the German peo-
pie from a text radically differ

selors. He tells them not only
that they have been vanquished
but that they have been van
quished in war for which they

them. moreover, that the war for
which they are morally respon-
sible has inflicted immeasurable
injury on their conquerors. What
lesson this inculcates, and is
meant to inculcate, is obvious.

SECRET DIPLOMACY DEAD.

Whatever may have been Presi-

comings in his dealing with the
peace conference, there is one
thing at least in which he has
stood manfully by his first an
nounced principles and in which
ne will have practically the una
nimous approval Of the American
people. says the Tulsa World. He
has given the nations to under
stand that no secret treaties Will
be permitted to enter into the
consideration Of the terms Of
peace To make it plain, the dip
lomatic slate must be wiped clean
and everything start anew from
first principles. Whatever treaties
any one or more Of the powers
have previously agreed to must
first be abrogated and then d new
understanding arrived at that
will comprehend the world as a
whole and work to the benefit Of
all people instead of to any Ger
tain group.
In this connection, Mr. Wilson
is right If we are to have a
peace that will stick, the first
necessary step is that all previous
entanglements be untangled and
deprived of Influence in shaping
the new agreement. Otherwise our

no more toward the abolition of
war than previous treaty-making

The British prime minister told
the house Of comons the other
day that the peace treaty would
not be made public until after it
had been accepted by the repre-
sentatives of the German govern
ment. just how the German gov
ernment would be prevented from
making it public he did not eX-
plain. or course secrecy could be
enjoined on it, but the allied con
ference has no means which it
would care to employ to compel
it to observe that injunction if it
should think it expedient to make
it public, Possibly the German
government thinks that its own
interest would be served by Sc
crecy quite as much as that of the
allies. In fact. the decision to
maintain secrecy may have been
made at thesinstance Of that gov
ernment. 1t may feel that public
opinion in Germany would be less
likely to rebel against the peace
