GERMANY

WILL FIGHT

FOR COLO Expects to Ring in Wilson's Fourteen Points As Basis for Claim to Colonies. A. G. Anderson rSTAFF CORRESPONDENT i. N . SERVICE BERLIN. April 1M. (Delayed.) "Whatever Germany may submit to on ether questions at the peace tibia there is at least one point for which her deleKates win light to the lust ditch and that is the retention of her colonies. So declared. Dr. Johannes Hell, colonial secretary, in an interview cu the peace outlook. "You .have observed that notwithstanding sharp party issues on all other subjects the national assembly a' AVfimar has stood solidly together on the colonial question," said Dr. Bel!. "From the extreme right to tho extreme l.'ft, the opinion is unanimous that Germany nuist retain her colonies. Our rcpresntalive s w ill have tho backing of tho wholo German peoplo in making this demand at far Is. ' By lighting I nv an, of course, as a lawyer would contend to win his case In a court of justice. Vi'e shall present every argument at ojr command. 'The biggest of our arguments, we believe, will be that of justice, founded upim various utterances of President AVilson, foremost among which I place the fifth of his fourteen points of peace wherein he promises an impartial adjustment of all colonial questions. Germany, as well as the entente accepted President Wilson's fourteen points as the basis for an armistice and peace. "I present my case under three main headings: One is ideals; the second Is the possibility of laying the foundation for future ill-will; the third la economic necessity. "I shall treat my arguments in the order given. The retention of our colonies is a matter of honor. "We have once begun our program of colonization. If we now abandon it. we shall be branded as a failure in the colonial tie'.d. "We have started to elevate the natives of our colonial possessions to a higher plane of culture. If we are barred from continuing we also are deprived of the opportunity of proving our ability to fulfill the task. Secondly, if Germany is given a peace that will enable the German people to live under tolerable conditions you will not find a more peaceful nation than ours. But if the entente lcfLves a stigma on us there w ill " always be secret yearning for , revenge which, sooner or later, will break out. To take our colonies away from us -would leave a sting in our hearts that woubf I not be forgotten. The German race is a nation of hard-working, industrious and able men and women. Tou can take away our wealth, but you cannot take away our ability. Tou cannot foi ever hold down 70,000,000 peorle. The earth is round and some day these 70.uOO.OOO people will again come out on top. "Finally, there is the argument of economic necessity-. Our colonies, placed iu relation to our industries and commerce, mean just so much in food nnd clothing to the German people. We depend on our colonies for raw materials for our manufactures, and we have been building up trade with our -verseas possessions. They are as vital to our existence as are the British

colonies to that of England or the j Martin Benson. James Burke. Leo McFrench colonies to that of France. campeli, AVm. Vatf-r. Oscar Biesse "Another point is this: Owing to josoph Melvin. Abe Stowcll, r-ennis J.

lower wages and lower cost of produc- j tion, Germany was. up to the time ot the war. England's and America's" most dangerous commercial competitor. Let me tell you that if we are deprived of our colonies we will Tie a still more dangerous competitor in the future. Given the opportunity to buy and sell goch? in our own territory, the necessity for competition in other markets is far less than when we have no colonies to fall back on for trad-;. Furthermore, I do not see why we should not reach a satisfactory agreement with the entente whereby competition and prices can be controlled. "We are going to make an outright demand for the retention of our colonies and we will not meekly sisn any dotted line on the colonial issues." ' , OF COURSE THEY'LL LOSE HO TIME Germany Has Already Begun Her Propaganda Campaign. riNTERNATIdNAL NEWS SERVICEJ AMSTERDAM. April 26. Tho Germans have evidently began their propaganda campaign in an effort to take advantage of the situation that has devdlopee in Paris. The Zeitung Ammittag of Berlin prints an interview with Professor Schuecking, a member of lhc German reace delegation to Versailles in which he is quoted as saying that Germans relish the healthy common sense of the entente peoples in preventing an imperialistic peace. "Tho contents of the recent entente note permits the conclusion that our opponents are inclined, in principle, to negotiate with us." Trof. SSchuccking was quoteel 5n Berlin dispatches. "It is evident," ho continued, "that the Anglo-Americans foresee that peace is being made not with a weak Germany, but with a Germany that win re a world power in a fv decades."
