Should Make Common Cause With Entente to Crush Military Autocracy The suggestion that the United States conduct its war with Germany on its own hook, without reference to the entente allies, seems so utterly ridic- ulous that it is surprising that any one should consider it seriously. Yet we are told that some men in high places in Washington are {n- Clined to this view, and that great pressure is being brought to bear upon ¢he president to outline such a plan in his war message to congress. The idea behind this suggestion seems to be that the United States ts ing to war with Germany for the sole purpose of making the oceans safe i American ships and American citizens; that when this is accomplished the war will be at an end so far as America is concerned, les sume our daily round of picture shows, While it is true that German submarit Which now seems unavoidable, when we have once enter cause will be identical with that of Great Britain, France, By ‘carrier, olty, ving us free to re- 1 piracy has precipitated the war ed upon the war, our Russia and Bel- These nations are fighting to crush the German military autocracy that P let loose upon the earth the terrible scourge of which submarine piracy is but an incidental expression. : THAT WILL BE PRECISELY WHAT WE WILL BE FIGHTING TO ; Submarine piracy is merely one symptom of the malignant disease with which the divine right military autocrats have inoculated the German nation. 4 This is the particular symptom with which we are cause It is the one that has been flaunted in our faces. : But we have as great an interest as any other nation in the world pos- sibly can have in making a complete cure of disease. : The future safety of the world depends upon the crushing of the Ger- man military machine and the disciplining of the German mind so that it will think of nationalism in terms other than military frightfulness. It is our world, just as much as it is the world of Great Britain, France, _ Russia and Belgium.
