BACK TO THE MINING?

Is dsintegration in Germany actu-
ally on?
There is breaking point in human
nature. Against their will, half Il
century ago, the peoples in what is
now Western Germany were led into
ideals of war by the Prussian junkers
In those days, most Germans out
side of Prussia loved peace. They re-
scented war. Treitschke, the war evan
gel of Bismarck was banished from
one or two of the minor states for
universities.
But the iunkers never lost sight of
their purpose. They pounded away
on the claim that IL more virile man
hood and more militant race were
10 be attended by war. 1t was taught
in the schools. 1t was preached In
the pulpits. Nietschke's books held it
up as the sure road to glory.
1t was proclaimed to Germans that
jolery and buncOmbe were applied I'M
ceasingly. Marching columns of SOL
diers were sent about to be looked
upon admirably by the populace. The
younger generation was captivated,
and the day arrived.
When the clash came II turned out
that war was not what had been clai-
med for it. There was great dis
illusionment Germany came out OF
the conflict in tatters of defeat. Five
years after. the nation is hungry. The
leadership that enticed the unwarlike
Germans of the west from the ideals
of peace to the ideals of war turned
out to be false. There was failure
and prostratiOn where triumph ant
glory were promised.
The Rhenish provinces are weary o
1t all. Everything they have touched
since they ventured away from tn
paths of peace is now dead ashes
The luster and grandeur that was t
come from war is a broken dream
The project was tried and its frui
is the gloom of catastrophe.
If the Rhenish peoples are seekin
separation, why the wonder? Flo
them, why not back to the beginning
back to the old serenity and trar
guilty of peace?-Portland Journal.
