Recently at a meeting of the state p commanders in Hartford, the lerans decided that no better object hld be undertaken than the raising s month of a “Pershing Fourth of v Fund” for Connecticut soldiers in nce.

Belore Professor Bakewell delivered his ad- Mr. Attwool made some pert ent explanations concerning the com- ing campaign and urged all to roll up their sleeves and go about this work with a vim which will end New Britain well over the top again. Pro- tessor Bakewell advised his listeners not to become dishearfened at the many calls for funds which are com- ing, but on the other hand to ready and willing to expect and to answer these calls. He soid that t 80 long as the war las these call will come and it is up to the army behind the army behind the guns to respond, that the sinews of war may be provided and the American army may be supplied with all that will be nec ¢ to beat G&rmany to her knee: peaking intimately of the German system, Professor Bakewell said that the song of hate has been sung in Germany until the mind of every German is poisoned against the other nations of the world. First it was fear of France, then Russia, then England and now America that has caused this hate to grow in the hearts of the rmans. To show the extent of the hate the Germans feel for the Allies the speaker told of a re- cent affair in Germany when a train- load of wounded British prisoners ar- rived. The wounded men were thirs- ty and hungry and when they begged for water the women of the town brought them pitchers of water, then laughed with fiendish glee as they poured the water on the ground be- fore them. They also brought the hungry men soup, but spit in it before giving it to them. Hate predomin- ates in Germany the speaker said, hate that was started by the infamous Blsmarl. War to Germany Is simply a busi- ness proposition, Pro or Balewell declared, and in proof thercof he read an article written by Germany’s fore- st steel producer in which he de- clared that he had attended at least one mecting with the kaiser which the husiness interests were ap- pealed to for support of the wa himself was offered 30,000 land in Austria, as well as business concessfons in Australin for his sup- port. Other husiness interest appealed to by offers of concessions in India and other parts of the world which the German war lords thought they would own by the end of 1915. He even sald that the German offi- clals had gono so far as to name tentative indemnity of one hundred billlon dollars to be levied a United States. As a message to New ple of German Bakewell recalled colonies revolted and the war was war of Inglish against English, y the defeat of Iingland was the gr est boon that the British IXmpire ever had because it aroused a new awak- ening there and was responsible for future liberties. Tn the Civil war, he said, it was Americans against Amer- icans, vet the defeat of the South wi a blessing for it has welded together this great nation into one indestruct- able unit. Just so with Germany, he said, the defeat of the Teutonic pow- ers and the overthrow of the Ilohen- zollerns will prove the best thing that can happen to Germany. He also de- clared that German people need have no reason to feel ashamed of their German lineage if they go back to the days of the true, remlly great Ger- many, back to the age before Freder- fck the Great. TRut now that Ameri- ca has drawn her sword In this fight for ideals, “this sword will be sheathed until Germany is crushed to her knees.” He sald that while the Allied line bend. it will never break and should Germany take Par- is, Calais or even London it would not mean victory but would simply mean a prolongation of the war. German Perfidy ¥xposed. Showing the perfidy of Professor Bakewell quoted from Frederick the Great in which the lat- ter once said that honesty good thing if it accomplishes res but if necessary cheating is all right. He related the Von Bernstorfi’s crooked int vlile protected by his ambassador’s cloak and warned tho people of this country not to pay attention to the German's nexst ¢, which will be a peace drive. Tt to come to a friendly un- derstanding with rattlesnake as it is to come to a friendly understand- ing with the German powers, he de- clared that such a thing is impossible man uprising, Professor Bakewell de- clared that such a thing is impossiblt until the whole of Germany rises up simultaneously, He declared that an uprising here and there can be put down with ease and hing more eventful than that impossible, be- cauge the Prussian powers control everything that makes for public opinion.
