on ED PEACE IS HOT OF QUESTION AMERICA WOULD HAVE TO RE PUDIATE CIVILIZATION TO BARGAIN WITH BRUTES. HAGUE CONVENTION IS CITED Evidenct of Violation of All Rules of Humanity Can Be Doubted by No One, America, unless we repudiate civilization and abandon humanity and put & premium on savagery and brutality, can make no covenanted peace, no peace by agreement or negotiation with Germany. It would be a covenant with hell, a partnership with infamy. Nor would such a peace secure .peace, except so long as it suited Germany. We can judge the future only by Uhe past, and to Germany sacred treaties are Bcraps of paper only. Germany's whole history is a record of national treachery, national bad faith, national dishonor, national murder and national infamy. Article 56 of The Hague Convention, to which Germany solemnly subscribed, is: "Family honor and rights. the -lives of persona and private prop erty, as well as religious convictions and bractice. must be respected. Pri vate property cannot be confiscated." : World Knows of Violations. The world knows how Germany haa observed this article. There are millions of individual witnesses to ker flagrant breaches of it Every acre, of foreign soil Germany has occupied bears mute but unimpeachable evidence of it. There is plenty of German evidence of It, too. "Tfco goods of different Boris seized In the enemies' territories are in such large quantities that the difficulty of knowing where to put them increases day by day. At the request of the Prussian Minister of War, all chambers of commerce have been asked to give all possible information with regard to storehouses, sheds, etc., which could be used temporarily to warehouse the spoil."

boasted of, otners have lielisurSrj, Tne amount of booty brought to Germany from tha occupied territory, and the destruction haa been far greater than the confiscation. Lan Must Show Our Answer. Of the old men and children mur dereJ of the women and girls raviyhed, of tha non-combatant takea from their homes and deported ta work for thair eonquerors, of tbe marchant ahlps gunk and passengers an crews murdered, of the hospital' shlpa" sunk, the hospitals and unfortified cities bombad, of the mutilation and murder by crucifixion and otherwise of wounded and captured soldiers of allj this beastliness there is plenty of evV denco, evidence that no one can'disber lieve. ' 1 The best answer to Gerjnan peace propaganda is sinking more U-boaU, sending more mem lo France, speeding up our work along every line and ft heavy subscription to the Fourth Liberty Loan. Peace nuMt mean the triumph of right and jottce, the defeat of Germanism, not a truce with it, no a compromise with it. Our soldiers in Frame are gloriously doing their part toward victory; th Liberty Loan subscription must show them that the people at home ant doing theirs. SOLDIER PROTECTED PAL Although 'Wounded and Suffering, i Trooper Covers Dead Friend 'With Overcoat. How little we at home are called upon to dotoward the ultimate Allied victory when compared with the sacrifices made by our men in the lines can. be gathered from an excerpt of Private Peat'fi narration of his experiences "over there. k. m m ff . une aay as ne was lying on a stretcher after te. first German gasattack at Ypres, Peat say in the American Magazlnd, a soldier, soaked, with blood, mud and rain, minus hist overcoat, his tunic torn by shrapnel, came into the field dressing station. As he was shivering; with cold, the nurse hurried oycd ind asked hlnb what had become of his overcoat.

"Oh," he answered in a voice QHlver Ing with chill, "my pal was .killed backthere, and be. looked so .cold lying: there in the rain that 1 took off my, coat and put it over him" t Flat's comment on the story is that "if themen in the trenches, with: their oMrt and their filtl),their gweaf lag and fjghtfng, pan show such tenderness and unselfishness and sacrifice 1 don't believe 'you here at hom$ are going to fall, below them in nobility of spirit" 1 we make . further comment T" Just think of 'tais story during taeFourtk Liberty Loan campaign. - .V,
