Baron Von Burian on Peace The discussion of peace terms by Baron von Burian, the Austro-Hungarian foreign minister, brought a smile to every American patriot. His assurance that the Central Powers "ever are ready to enter into peace negotiations with all our opponents" might have been left unsaid. Who wants a peace by negotiation? Who wants "to discuss everything?" Who cares whether" the Central Powers approve or disapprove of the four points in President Wilson's Fourth of July speech? The time is far gone when the Allies and the United States care to enter upon a negotiated peace. The only peace the Allies will consider an enduring one is a peace brought about by the victorious assaults of their troops. Neither Austria nor Germany will dictate that peace. They must be satisfied with the terms dictated by the Allies. Time was when the Central Powers might have sat down around a peace table with the Allies. They spurned and rejected the terms that would enter into such negotiations. Now the fathers and mothers of the French, Italian, British and American soldiers demand peace by victory. Their sons have suffered and died on the battlefield, and they will not tolerate a peace that will permit Germany to retain Alsace, Belgium and a large expanse of Russia. Ever before them are the figure of the Most High and the bloodthirsty Potsdam gang that brought about this awful war and debased it by resorting to the most fiendish outrages human ingenuity could devise to maim, butcher and kill fellow beings. Does Baron von Burian believe for one moment that the blood of the women and children that his Most High tortured and killed for the aggrandizement and glorification of his house has not called to heaven for vengeance? Does he believe that American fathers and mothers want the American government to seek a negotiated peace that will let the Berlin gang of murderers, directly responsible for the human blood that has been shed in the last four years, again turn loose its efficiently trained butchers to make the world a place of sorrow and misery ? One of the primary purposes of this war is to deal the scientific militarism of autocracy a death blow. For that reason our boys are enduring the havoc wrought by bayonet, bullet and bomb. The civilized world is dealing with savagery, disguised under a thin veneer of civilization, and there can be no lasting peace, no assured safety on land or sea, above the land or under the water, until the monsters that menace the security of decent people are put out of the way. His Most High has shown the most ruthless disregard for every semblance of honor and decency. He has sanctioned the outraging of women, the killing of children, the sinking of hospital boats and the shelling of Red Cross hospitals. His accredited representatives to this country while we were still neutral, took .base advantage of our hospitality to dynamite our industries, seduce our citizens, incite our neighbors to attack us from the rear, pervert moneys collected for Red Cross work to insidious propaganda work, and to create unrest among our citizens. Is there an American father, who, after reading a casualty list containing the names of our boys, does not demand that his Most High be crushed by force of arms? Can there be an American who is willing to listen with patience and composure to the twaddle that von Burian uttered ? America wants peace, but an honorable peace won on the field of battle.
Thorns in the Side of His Most High Next to Prince Lichnowsky, former ambassador to Great Britain, whose revelations of teutonic intrigue and determination to begin the world ' war, no thorn in the side of His Most High rankles more than Herr Wilhelm Muehlon, former director of the Krupp works at Essen, now . an exile in Switzerland, who places responsibility for the outbreak of the war diractly on the kaiser. There's a reason for the bitteerness which the Most High entertains for the former director of a concern so intimately connected with the bloodthirsty ambitions of the Hohenzollern house and so admirably equipped to manufacture se
cretly the munitions which the Berlin government needed for its mad plunge into the most gigantic war of all times. It is natural that the revelations of this man, which helped tear off the mask of duplicity and lies, should disturb the placidity of the kaiser and arouse a resentment that is too deep for palliation. Muehlon periodically jabs the Most High with a revelation that makes him squirm. After exposing the determined manner in which the kaiser plotted for war in the crisis when England and her allies were trying to find a peaceful solution, Muehlon persisted in publishing letters and documents to support his contention. He minces no words in his condemnation of German intrigue and purpose. The Philadelphia Public Leader prints the following letter which Muehlon addressed to Von Bethmann-Hollweg on May 7, 1917: To His Excellency Imperial Chancellor Von BethmannHollweg, Berlin. Numerous and great as have been the mistakes and failures on the part of the Germans eince the beginning of the war, I believed for a long time that I might hope that a better understanding and sentiment would gradusjly pervade among our influential personages. With this hope I had to a certain extent offered my services in Rumania during the wax and I was ready to help also in my present abode, Switzerland, as" long as the object of my efforts was to be rapproachment of the enemies. That I was averse to any other activity which did not aim directly at reconciliation and reconstruction I showed shortly after the outbreak of the war by resigning my position as a member of the Krupp board of directors. Since the beginning of this year I have lost every bit
of hope in regard to the present rulers of Germany. The peace offer without mention of the war aims, the extended submarine war, the deportation of the Belgians, the devastation in France, the sinking of British hospital r-hlps are instances of the acts which have again and again disqualified our responsible authorities to such an extent that, as I am firmly convinced, they can no longer be considered at all for a well-intentioned, fair understanding. They may yet change as far as they are personally concerned, but they cannot continue to be representatives of the German cause. As such they no longer deserve either patience or consideration. The German people can make reparation for the great wrongs inflicted on their own present and future and on that of Europe and humanity only then when they are represented by other men of a different stamp. It is not an injustice that they have 'brought upon themselves the odium of the entire world, deficient and imperfect as the latter may be and remain. The triumph of our military and political methods of warfare prevailing until now would mean the defeat of the highest thoughts and hopes of humanity. We need only suppose that an exhausted, demoralized nation, or one abhorring force, would accept peace from this same government which had carried on the war, in order to recognize how deceptive and wretched would be the plight and the prospects of the life of the nations. As a human being and as a German, who has the welfare of the quisled and tormented German nation at heart, 1 turn with absolute finality from the men of the present day German regime. May everyone, who is in a position to do so, act in the same way. May many Germans soon be able to do so. Since it is not possible for me to make this demonstration before the German public, I have decided that the proper course is to inform your excellency of my standpoint. Dr. W. MUEHLON. His repudiation of the men who now are controlling the destinies of the German empire is as absolute as it is frank. His opinion is reflected in the indictment of Maximilian Hardin in a current issue of Die Zukunft in which he says : "We know what the enemy wants and we know that we have a government which, calling itself pan-German or whatever else it likes, only expects peace through the might of the army and feels certain of obtaining it in a short time. We may be certain that no words of theirs will ever gain belief anywhere." The trickery and treachery of the German rulers, as it is revealed in the disclosures of Lichnowsky and Muehlon, corroborate what the Allies have known for four years and which the Most High has never been able to explain.
Learn Loyalty to Uncle Same Fred H. Rindge, Jr., in Harper's Magazine. IN several of the army camps special classes and talks have been arranged for alien enemies who have been segregated. This has resulted in entirely changing their attitude toward the war and many have come our loyally for America. At one camp a series of meetings for different groups of foreign born was called by division orders. The Y. M. C. A. co-operated in securing speakers in various foreign languages and splendid results were secured. At Just about that time the War Department order granting discharges to all subjects of Austria-Hungary was announced. More than six hundred 'of these men refused to accept discharges as a direct result of these meetings. In one instance, at a gathering attended by 250 men, only seven said they would accept discharges. The meeting succeeded in crystallizing sentiment against the Central Powers, and the changed attitude of the men is well illustrated by one Bohemian, who said: "We want to go across to fight; not stay here and do uothing; we know why we are fighting; we have been fighting the Germans for a thousand years." There is something about the army uniform that levels men upward and makes the foreigners look as fine aa they really are. Few things in America today are more inspiring than the way the vast majority of these adopted nephews of Uncle Sam are taking their place with men of other nationalities all really Americans r.nd are gaining self respect, health, weight, better physique, mental alertness, moral character, and real confidence In themselves and 'in their country.

Milton Soldier Says Miss Wilson "Like Dad--Always Says Right Thing"
MILTON, Ind., July 17. The following letter was received by Mr. and Mrs. W. 1 Parkins from their eon, Ivan, who has received his commission as First Lieutenant: "We left Camp Custer about 1:30 Saturday afternon. There was a good bunch of fellows on the train and all acted like kids so had all sorts of fun. One fellow was always asking for the mayor of the towns through which we passed ; when he found some one who directed him to the mayor, he wouid say, "I haven't time now to run up and see him, but you give him my compliments." We got to see some of the famous canoeing at Ann Arbor. Somewhere on the outskirts of Detroit a bunch of Red Cross people met us with post cards, apples, cakes and cigars. There was another troop train in the 6tation at Toledo. There were about a dozen engines In the yards and when the two trains pulled out all the whistles were turned loose, making so much noise one couldn't see his hand In front of his face. I think it was at Lexington I saw the first separate waiting room for whites and blacks and from there we saw many things which could not have been seen in the north. We passed through the Carolina Blue Ridge. The hills were a wonderful sight and looked like great banks of ferns. The finest sight I have ever seen was the view from High Bridge, in Kentucky, where the Kentucky river Join3 the Cumberland. The fork of the rivers iB a perfect Y. The green hills go up from both sides. The ramshackle cabinB of the negroes and the worse looking cabins of the poor whites were perched up in the hills or on the outskirts of the towns. The most picturesque country was in Tennessee. Some of the little towns nestled away up there seemed almost out of the world, but the people did not 6eem so at all. Of course we did see a lot of old time Tennesseeans the kind one reads about He usually was seen leaning against the porch of his shack a lot of kids about, all barefooted. At Spartansburg we went into a drug store where there was a magnificent soda fountain, but the fountain
was not in use. The proprietor explained that business got so bri6k he could not handle it so had to close the fountain. I like to listen to the Southerners talk. Here I was up north just long enough to get used to hearing a good old fashioned bucket called a pail, and now I have to learn to say "you all," "reckon," "carry" for "take", and "tote" for "carry." The colored people seem to know their place and to make good soldiers. One thing is sure, they are using them for soldiers and not for fatigue as has been reported. Men who have seen their work say they are going to give a mighty good account of themselves in this war. In South Carolina we saw cultivated fields that were terraced. Very little of the land is level and consequently it washes badly. They have a strip of sod every three or tour rods which

It happened at a Red Cross tea held at a country club. The fussy old gentleman of the white vest tapped the tweed-clad youngster on the shoulder. "My boy," he said, "why are you not in the army?" The boy smiled. "To be frank with you, sir," he said, "I don't like it There's all this business of sleeping in the mud, and uncooked food, and rain all the time dashed uncomfortable, you know." "Uncomfortable!" The white vest front heaved indignantly. "Are you not of age, in good health or physically fit?" "Yes sound as a drum. Just twenty-two, no dependants." The young man was still cheerful. The inevitable group gathered about them. "Disgusting! Have you no patriotism no love of country? What is your reason for not being in the army? Confess, coward!" "I can't be," said the cheerful youth. "I'm in the navy. Eighteen hours' leave and special permission to wear civilian clothes."
prevents washing and makes a succession of level patches. I am almost ideally located at Camp Gordon, close to Y. M. C. A, hut the Y auditorium, canteen and camp library. This evening I heard Margaret Wilson sing. She does not have a wonderful voice but she would be well worth hearing If she were not our president's daughter. The only thing I did not like about her was that when some one asked her to sing "Indiana," she said she did not know It' At the close of her program she gave a twominute talk to the crowd of soldiers that jammed the big auditorium and we found that she bad inherited some of her dad's ability to say the right thing at the right time. I never heard anything said to soldiers quite so pertinent, sincere and effective. My visit home seems like a dream. I haven't any kick at all against army life, and yet you can't realize how good It seemed to have mother's arms a,bout me again, to walk down street with dad, to see sister and play with the babies, and to talk things over with Bud. There were a lot of things I enjoyed, All the folks were so good to me and every one surely treated me fine sometimes all of it nearly made me choke. I never wanted to get home so badly; I never bad such a good time in a week, and yet I never hated to leave so little. After a visit like that I would be satisfied anywhere Just so I can be in the service in the United States army. IVAN W. PARKINS.

Americans Know a Good Thing Trust the People to Find Out What Is Good for Them All over the country folks are learning that after the long hard winter's pull, lack of green food and fresh air, they are usually run down, have no appetite, are nervous and in bad shape generally. Spring to them is a season to be dreaded, their thin, watery, poisoned, clogged blood and weak nerves robs them of all ambition or desire to work and takes the pleasure out of life. For such men and women doctors are recommending Pbosphated Iron which goes to the very roots of all blood impurities and nervous troubles, They claim it helps purify the blood by making it over anew, while the way it relieves tired, fagged out nerves is almost too good to be true. The confidence that the American people and prominent doctors have shown in Pbosphated Iron, while remarkable, is not surprising, as it is one of those honest preparations that never disappoints. As a man said in recommending to his neighbor, "It's results that count, and you can bank on Phosphated Iron, It is the 'goods.' everyone that tries it is a booster, it sure did put me on my feet when I was almost down and out." Every man, woman and child that has thin, watery, impure blood, no strength, or appetite, weak nerves and is all played out generally, can come back strong, be a live one once again, enjoy restful sleep and get up facing the world with a smile if they will try Phosphated Iron, the red blood and nerve builder. To Insure physicians and their patients getting the genuine Phosphated Iron we have put in capsules only; do not take pills or tablets. Insist on capsules.
