Ai z 1 | | j uy, \- By CLARENCE Li SPEED. Wecretary of the War Committee of the : Union League Club of: Chicago. We are at war with’ Germany be cause Prussia dominates Ger thatiy, and. from the days of Freder- {ck the Great, Prussia’s law has been the’ law of the jungle, her doctrine “Might is Right” and: her policy, in dealing with other nations, one of rob- bing the weak and terrorizing the strong. Germany hag grabbed terri- tory and exacted tribute from’ her neighbors, and finally, ‘her greed’ be- coming greater, has looked ‘out over more distant lands, and has commit- ted herself'to a policy of world domt- nation which menaces:the: continued free existence of every nation which will not submit to her will. ‘Germany's policy is not an acciden- tal one. It has been carried out with remarkable-~singleness of purpose from -generation to generation of Hohensollern rule, from the time of the Great Frederick until to- day. Germany's atrocities are not accdedtal. They are a deliber. ate, well thought out part of this Hohenzollern policy, which was to break down the resistance of her op- Penents, not only by fighting and de- feating their armies but by killing, torturing and terrorizing the civil Populations. ‘The Gedman rulers committed them- * gelves to the doctrine of the survival of the fittest. ‘Through generations of teaching they made the German peo- ple believe that they, and they alone, were the fit. * We have the words of the’ German Fulers and German warriors and Ger man leaders of thought for all of this., More than that we have the perform -ance,.of German officers-and German ‘armfes in conquered lands to prove it “Let's start’ with Frederick the Great in presenting “the - evidence ‘This monarch, who! earned’ his sou- briquet through despoiling his: neigh- bors, rather than .through: any real qualities of mind which he showed, said, in a letter to his minister, Rad giwill: “If there is anything to be gained by it, we will be honest; if deception fe necessary, let ug'be cheats. One takes what one can, and one is wrong only when obliged to give back.” ‘ This philosophy, applied to present conditions; means that Germany was right when she took Belgium, and will be wrong only if she is, not able tt pROMilte | sop) Ps ‘rou. ick the Great to Bis marck ‘sa long jump io the matter of time; but we find the Prussian pol Aty unchanged.

Dead men, he believed ,tell It was Baron Luxburg, miniaterplent- “potentiary to Argentina, who wrote this amazing dispatch on May ‘19, 1917: “I beg'that the small steamers Oran and Guazo.. . which are nearing Bordeaux . ._. be spared if possi- ble, or else sunk without a trace be ing left.” D This telegram was intercepted in the United States and: published. It sent a thrill of horror around’ the world, Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollweg is a true. disciple “of Frederick the > Great, Bismarck and his royal master, In a public speech on January 31, 1917, he said: Be “When the most ruthless methods are calculated to lead us to victory, awift victory, they must be employed.” So they were used, and are being’ used today. ‘They include sinking of} hundreds of neutral ships, the burning. 6f cities, the deliberate devastating . Of the fair lands-of-France, the ravist- ing of women, the enslavement of workmen and the murder of little chil- dren. 4 Horrors suchas these are told in de- tail in “The Prussian System,” by F. C. Walcott, who, for a long time, was en- gaged in behalf of America in trying to get food to the Poles whom the Ger- mans were deliberately starving by the hundreds of thousands so that they tight not cumber the land which the Germans: intended to occupy. Knowing all this, can the American people talk of Woy peace by negotia- tion? Can they stop this war until this mad dog of nations 1s freed from the military rulers who teach frightful>| ness‘ from the cradle, and will only seize a respite now to prepare them- Geives for further conquests? o = —eS eoeccccvere: Shop in The Tribune Before You Shop in the Store. ‘ue First Canadian field artillery.

We were the sacrifice battery and were to stay behind if there should’ be a retreat. Well, our boys went out of the trench and were met by the Germans in mass formation, “They were smothered—but not be fore they had wreaked frightful havoc, They died to a man. The Huns came on yelling, with all their lungs and as. they neared we blew great holes in that formation, But we didn’t stop ing like fiends of hell. “Our ammunition was gone. *We grabbed parts of the guns and our rifles, and retreated with the rest, stop ping now and then to drop one or two of. the enemy. ~ “The battery to our right didn’t have a chance to use all their shells. The Boche was upon them too quickly with smoke shells: that started great fires, The boys there were burned alive. “Yes, they are fighting, the Ger Mans.
