BISMARCK DA{LY TRIBUNB MONDAY, SEPT. 30, 1918. ‘By SENATOR HENRY CABOT LODGE. The war will be won by men and ships, by guns © and airplanes. To raise armies and supply them, to build the navy and: support it, and to furnish, ships and ‘transport, we must ‘have money ,in large amounts. The expenditures of the Gov-. ernment for, the, ensuing year are estimated *, at $24,000,000,000, a sum which baffles ‘the imagination to conceive. That vast amount” must come one-third from taxes and two: thirds from loans. The success of the Fourth Loan, like those that preceded it. is, therefore, abso- _lutely necessary. We must work with the’ “highest speed, as ifthe war was to end in six months. We must prepare in évery direction, . as if it was to last for years.. Speéd and prep- __ aration are both expensive. » Without the Loans We Cannot, Have Either We are fighting to secure a eg righteous and lasting peace.’ For a complete peace we must have a complete victory. It must not be a peace of bargain or negotiation. No peace! which satjsfies Germany can ever satisfy us. No peace that leaves Gerfnany in a position to renew the war against us will _be worth having. It will be far from sufficient to gain ‘all our. objects on the Western front — Belgium, Alsace-Lorraine, Italia ’ Jrredenta. The President with wisdom and foresight and great force expressed his determination. to redeem Russia. Russia must ‘not be left in Geritant’s hands. That would: mean | another war. Poland must be free. Slav republics must be’ established to bar the way between Germany and the East. _ Serbia. and Roumania must be redeemed. All these things are essential. Nothing will bring them but complete victory anda peace dictated by us and our allies, It is a conflict of ideas. _ It is the principle of evil arrayed against the principle’ of goad. It is the battle of freedom and civilization against barbarism and\tyranny. We must win dinask we shall win. . - ‘ne “epe We.Cannot Win Without, Money, bed: Therefore, These Loans Are .. Vital, and the Country Should Rally in All‘Its.
