MORE PEACE PRATTLE. ‘While scanning the front page of this our attention was attracted by a few headlines which prove that the Huns are devoting just as much energy to egonducting their peace offensive they are to withdrawing their armies a metropolitan daily morning as from France and Flanders. Here are a few of them: BEND OF WAR SOON SAYS BURIAN AFTER SEEING OUR NOTE. GERMAN ARMY TOLD TO END DEVASTATION. GERMANY ORDERS USBOATS BACK TO BASES, IS REPORT GERMANY'S ARMIES ORDERE T0 STOP DESTROYING TQWNS. Three of these reports emanate from Amsterdam, the home of well- oquipped German intelligence bu- reaus. The fourth one is based on illeged statements of captured Ger- man soldiers, whose statements we vegard as being just about as reliable as those of the Kaiser himself. The casual reader is apt to n the im- pression from these headlines thut Germany is trving to make am for her crimes. That is exac impression Germany wishes the ¢ ual readers to g so that he will be amenable to peace overtures. The story about the order to stop destroy- ing towns was cabled by an American correspondent to his paper, not, of course, with the idea of helping along the German idea in any way, but to demonstrate that the encmy’s action in sparing Lille, Roulers and other towns is to be attributed to fear of possible consequences. Liet no one that the Hun He imagine for a moment fears only If is or can be penitent lone thing—forceful reprisals. he thinks he or his tountry will be pun- lished severely for this or that offense, he will hesitate at committing it.

A BILLION A DAY. When one realizes the colossal task which confronts the country on the last two days of the Fourth Liberty Loan, one is almost staggered by its | proportions.

Read what Secretary McAdoo says: Subscriptions reported and es- timated up to noon Thursday amount to four billion dollars, leaving at least two billion dol- s to complete the Kourth Lib- erty Loan. Only two days are left within which to raise this vast sum. No country on earth but Amer- ica could raise so vast a sum in so short a time. America can do it and must do it. The destinies of the world and the hopes of civilization are cen- tered upon America. We 11 fail in everything we have fought for and hope to gain in this war it the Fourth Liberty Loan is de- feated. Let every true American citi- zen today examine himself under the white light of patriotism and say whether or not he has done his utmost in this emergency. The highest obligations of duty and patriotism command every true American to go immediate to his bank or his Liberty Loan committec and subscribe to the limit of his ability to the Fourth Lberty Loan. Don’t delay. Don't wait to be urged. Be as quick to do your part in this Fourth Liberty Loan batgle : soldiers in France are to obey the orders to the enemy.
