The night is dark The sea is tfiehttul.
But the operator has NOT lost faith and
he calls netsistently, to the very last minute,
until the last light is gone and his apparatus
is sleneed forever.
What dees he trust ia , He trusts !,
humanity, and so do I. He trusts in the
law of human love and life. II is impossible
that one human being will deny help to
another in his hour of perdition It is i'm

another to perish without attempting to

Autonomy Spurned
By Grateful People
OF Alsace-LO
Germans Declared to Have
Made Propaganda of DIFF.
ferences That Refer to
Mere Matters of Detail

PARIS, April 81 (By The Associated
Press ).-Reports published in the
United States relative to discomfort in
Alsacc and Lorraine over French ad-
minlstration of the two provinces have
brought a protest from Or. Buchea,
president of the Ancicns Etudicnts Al
saciens ct Lorraincs, who has made
public the following statements:
Freed from their load of hateful
bondage, it is with profound happiness
that Alsace and Lorraine have turned
to their mother country. Their graft
tude to France is infinite. Back in the
fold they are ready to cooperate with
JOY in the task of reconstruction, and
their dearest wish is to come back for
full share in the internal life of
France.
ut IS obvious, however, that admin
istratve measures cannot be changed in
one day without slightly perturbing the
general run of things. France, as gen
erous and liberal as ever, has invited
the peoples of Alsacc and Lorraine to
submit their own suggestions, as we'll
as TO point out obstacles that should be
avoided. German propaganda has tried
TO make use OF this exchange of views,
and IN this way criticism of matters of
a purely administrative nature has
come to be represented as discomfort
toward France and construed as evinc-
ing tendency toward political au-
tonomy.
"Such base rumors have gained moth
ing but scorn in Alsace and Lorraine,
and the idea of autonomy has been in
dlgnantly cast aside. There is no room
n our hearts for more than the ardent
wish to be French citizens"

Charges that President Wilson had
always been opposed to Italy and her

delivered before meeting of fifty men
high in Italian American financial, pro-

Mr.. Corrao's speech, .denouncing the
meeting, which unanimously adopted

side with the United States and her
allies against the common enemies"
president Wilson," Mr.. Corrao said
was never a friend of the Italian
people He only showed friendship
for them when running for office. 1t
was mistake for Italian statesmen
to place any reliance on President
Wilson's supposed friendship and good
will. In his history he praises the
Chinese at the expense of the Italians.
'In the light of experience it was
foolish for the Italian statesmen, on
Italians anywhere, to expect Pres sdent
Wilson to be other than he has shown
himself to be on the question of Fiume
and the Adriatic.

One must, indeed, be insane not ia
understand the palpable and simple acts Of
Bolshcvsn One must be sightless, stark
blind, or have eyes that see not to fail to
observe on the face of great, mutilated
Russia murder without end, ruins, miles of
cemeteries, dungeons and insane asylums
not to perceive what hunger and terror have
done to Petrograd and, alas, to many other
cities
One must be carless, stone-deaf, or have
cars that hear not, to remain callous to the
sobs, the sighs and the waling of the wom-
en-, the heartrcnding cries of the children,
the death-rattlc of strangled men, the crack
ling of the assassns' rifles, the only music
that has filled the air of Russia for the last
eighteen months
One must, indeed, be savage, become
morally crippled like the Bolsheviki, to have
eyes, mind and will and at the same time
to remain indifferent to the inhuman con-
duct of the Bolsheviki and to call it any,
thing else but crime, homicide, pcrversion
and piracy
One must be completely devoid of every
human sentiment and be equipped with the
morality Of an idiot to be able to say calmly
at the sight Of scoundrel violating
woman or Of an unnatural mother torturing
her child, that that is their personal at
tar, and not to interfere under the pretext
that such acts no matter by whom COM
mltted, may pass under the banner of
Socialism or Communism
hcse words are sacred to mankind, and
they have power to charm mems souls.
But when vicious bufoons style a. band of
ignorant and base hired Chinese cutthroats

democracy one must have a soul dead be-
yond hope of resurrection to be caught in
such shameless and miserable trap Shame
less, indeed, for the employment of yellow
mcrcenaries to butcher Europeans is not
recorded in the annals of any of the most
desplcable tyrannies of Europe
How painful to think that all Europe

You are firm in accusing, with amusing

at the same time you stretch out your hands
