PLAIN SPEECH IN GERMANY HAS WARNING OF CHANGES TO GOME

Tin More You Save

Sounds like a plea for extravagance—but it isn’t. It applies to milk consumption and points the way to real economy.

Ecery quart of milk you put into your diet in place of other foods, saves you money. The substituting of milk i'or meat, eggs and other similar foods actually SAVES you about twice as much as the milk costs.

When three milk bottles $tand on the doorstep where one stood before, you may know that family is better fed, for less money, than when milk was bought merely as a beverage.

(A FOOD)

[New York Times] Even th* German Socialists, committed a* they are to liberal reform* in the empire, to the “democratization’’ of Germany, do not yet clearly underetand the charge against her as sh® stands at the bar of civilization; they are very far from having the true Idea of the penalty she must pay, not In expiation of her guilt, which la Inexpiable, but to make the world safe. Mr. Ebert, speaking in th* committee of the reichstag. is reported by Vorwart* as saying that, "the government could have peace thl* summer If It would only offer peace without annexation* and indemnities to all opponent* and abandon eeparate overture* to Russia." This Socialist member of the reichstag epeaks as one dwelling in remote past time. Since th* battle of th* Marne there has been no real question of annexations by Germany, or I 0 f indemnities to be paid to her. Certainly the allies are not thinking of those bygone matters. But Mr. Ebert is wide of the mark in assuming that Germany can ha^e peace merely by foregoing annexations and Indemnities. Peace on that basis would merely restore the status quo. Germany, since she now know* that victory for her Is impossible, would like nothing better. Th* allies will make no peace on those term*. If Mr. Ebert has read President Wilson’s message to Russia, delivered to the Russian government In Petrograd on May 28, he can have hardly forgotten the striking passage which we here quote from tnat document; Of course, the Imperial government and those whom It le using for thoir own undcing. are seoklng te obtain pledgee that the war will end in the restoration of tho statu# quo ante It wai tho status quo ant# out of which this iniquitous war iseued forth, the power of the imperial German government within the empire and Its widespread demlnatlon and Snlluenc* out of that empire. That etatua must be altered In such iasblon as to prevent any such hideous thing ever happening • • • Praoucal questions can be set tied only by practical mean*. Phrases will not accomplish th# result. Effective readjustment will; whatever readjustments ar* necessary must be made. The necessary readjustments Include, first of all, the overthrow of the German autocracy. If the Socialists of Germany mean that when they speak of the democratization of the empire, then they are approaching conditions which would make peace possible. The dreams and ambitions of Imperialism must be put aside; Germany must undergo a change of heart and purpose before the allies will consent to talk about peace. Meanwhile, there Is an Increasing plainness of speech in German discussion of th* Imperial institution and its policies. Before th* committee of the reichstag Mr. von Payer, a Radical, said that “the only thing to do was to hold out, in the mean time, bolstering public sentiment by immediately beginning the work of democratizing the country.” In th# Saxon diet, when the prime minister of Saxony declared that the government would fight any attempt to secure franchise reform in th# individual states through th# action of th* reichstag, the Socialist vice-president o? the house declared that Saxon soldiers were not fighting because of loyalty to the king, but "out of love of th# fatherland and monarchical principle." If th# government of Saxony persisted in its reactionary attitude, he said that "reform would come. If not from th# crown, then from the mob." A Nationalist member of the reichstag said “that a vast majority of th# Saxons were Inspired by an utter lack of confidence in the government” Mr. Harden, too. Is talking as boldly aa If he were a citizen of a republic, not the subject of an emperor. Reflection and repression may have their way for a time, but there !■ renewed complaint about the insufficiency of food supplies and the new session of th# reichstag may afford an opportunity for more plain speaking.

Maxwell

How Many Miles Per Gallon Do You Get?

This question is something of a bugaboo among motorists. 4

Some answer it with reluctance while others are glad to tell you of the possibilities of their

cars.

Maxwell owners are members of the latter class.

For the Maxwell has demonstrated that it will give a mileage favorably comparable with that of any car.

The National Economy Contest, now in progress, has been productive of runs ranging from 24 to over 33 miles per gallon of gasoline.

Although more than sixty owners have taken part in the contest so far, not one has failed to get 24 miles or more as a result.

Maxwell owners can answer the mileage question with a smile.
