1/VHAT GERMANY | MUST PAY Germany has had her war-dance and must now pay the piper. In 1871 Germany made France pay the full price of defeat. If she had won the present war, to use the words of a German business man, “she would have dictated peace at Buckingham Palace and an- ; nexed the entire continent from the Ural Mountains to the Bay of Biscay. I here is no indication that the Allies will dictate any such robber’s peace, but they are determined, to judge from the pledges of Allied rulers, the emphatic declarations of the Allied press, and the stern comment of the man on the street in London, and Paris, and Antwerp, and Chicago, to make Germany pay for the wreck and the ruin she brought upon the world. If you would know quite definitely the demands that will be made upon Germany by the allied countries that have suffered from the war, you should read the leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST this week-Decembcr 28th. It is a careful compilation from the most authoritative sources and undoubtedly represents the force of public opinion in the allied countries.
