Unless opposition politicians are made of stonc, they must realize by this time that the crude campaign to discredit President Wilson in the eyes of the American people must end in disaster. Almost from the minute the Fourth Loan campaign was concluded, Republicans have as- Wilson all gngles, but he has remained calm and Liberty sailed President from steadfast and declines to be ruffled or discredited. A few of the Presi- dent’s critics are men of high stand- others are of the ing in the nation: ety, a class that covers its with peanut v profound ignorance a thin veneer of injured innocence and out- raged patriotism. But one and all, their foils are bent and they retire in defeat. The most recent instance of this can be found in the President’s let- ter to Senator Simmlons explaining the third paragraph in his fourteen It was apparent from the peace points. the beginming that would seize on this paragraph and at- Republicans tempt to demonstrate to the country that President Wilson intended to regulate the tariff according to hisown views, which, of course, is furthest from his mind. The third para- graph said: The removal, so far as possi- ble, of all economic barriers and the establishment of an equality of trade conditions among all na- tions consenting to the peace and associating themselves for its maintenance Free trade, chorused the Republi- cans after being properly prompted from headquarters. Onward “they rushed in their enthusiasm, careless of the precipice ahead and they ac- tually chortled in glee as they vinced tnzmselves that here, at last, was a weak point at which they could throw the weight of their artillery. Then the blow fell. In his letter, published yesterday, President Wilson explained the real object of the third paragraph: I, of course, meant to suggest ne restriction upon the free de- termination policy, but only that, whatever tariff any nation might deem necessary for its own eco- nomic service, be that tariff high or low, it should apply equally to all foreign nations: in ather words that there shall be no dis- criminations against some na- tions that did not apply to others. This leaves every nation free to determine for itself its own in- ternal policies and limits only its right to compound these poli- cies of hostile discriminations be- tween one nation and another. Weapons of economic discipline and punishment should be left to . the joint action of all nations for the purpose of punishing those who will not submit to a general program of justice and equality. Another Republican bubble van- ished into space. ed. Another hope bla Another argument made to look ridiculous. Next! UNCONDITION Austria’s note expressing approval L. SURRENDER. of President Wilson's views has failed to create enthusiasm at Washington as it is believed the Hapsburgs are still working hand in glove with the to the “all Hohenzollerns. According note, Austria-Hungary accepts the conditions laid down for the en- try into negotiations for an armistice and peace” and no obstacle exists “‘to con- | the beginning of these negotiations.” America has only one reply that can given be made, the answer to Bulgaria by the Allies—unconditional surrender. ‘The Austrians must lay down the sword and accept the con- ditions decided upon by those coun- tries with which she is at war. If Austria were persuaded to with- draw from the copflict it would be a blow to Germany which would hasten the end of the world struggle at a pace far more rapid than is now an- ticipated. Austria, rendered power- less could be Un- der the terms of the agreement with the Allies her territor like Bulgaria has been, used as 2 new road to Berlin Bulgaria, re permitted to occupy for operations against the enemy. Similar use of the Hapsburg domains would result in a knock out blow administered at a vital spot in Germany. But it is ul- most too much to hope for and the war must be prosecuted as vigorously as In the past. Nothing short of un- conditional surrender will satisfy the millions of American mothe and fathers whose boys have been trans- ported to the battiefields of France. It is probable President Wilson will demand guarantees of good faith be- fore transmitting the Austrian appeal to the Allied governments. ONLY ANOTHER “DUD’. After a period of intensive somno- lence, the Republicans are awaken- ing to the fact that President Wilson does not intend to consult Will Hays and other members of a select co- terie on how peace shall be eventual- ly brought about. From Senator Knox of Pennsylvania there came a thin, piping voice of protest during the debate yesterdaw in the se to the effect that . upper ho “it is proposed - * that the Senate and House abdicate their sworn and in- It should dependent duties was supposed to be a deep, sonorous, reverberating protest but it was weak and puny and took its place on the shelf with the other antiques when Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Com- mittee, reminded the gentleman from the state of sylvan serenity, that the fourtcen by sesslon of Congress, principles of the peace, enun- ciated President at a joint were accepted then as being in keeping with Amer- ican ideals. A report from the political battle- front might read Mke this: “The op- position continues to shell our lines heavily with large caliber projectiles An investigation of shells which fail to explode shows that ninety per cent. of them are filled with sawdust, in- stead of guncotton.’ It is rather late in the day to file an appeal against proposals that once had been applaudded unanimously The next number on the internation- al circus program will be an involun- tary sword swallowing act by William Hohenzollern, the world renowned two-fisted quitter.

Plans for the publicity end of the United War Wo campaign $160,- 000 drive will be perfected at a {meeting of the publicity committee at the campaign headquar- in the New Britain Bank huilding.

A drive made to secure a day’s pay from every employe in New Britain. This pay is not to be given over at once, but an employe can sign up for the amount and then it will be taken out of his pay envelope as he speci- fies, so that it will not work any hardship. If all the employes of the | city zive a day’s pay to help the boys ,in the trenches there is no that New Britain will top handsomely in the $160,000 cam- paign.
