W. T. Mason (Famous American War Expert.) (Copyright, 1917, Newspaper Enterprise Association Collapse of Prussian military statesmanship and the first triumphs of democracy over the militarists are the dominating the conflict. Kaiserism is in retreat, almost prepared to democracy inside and outside Germany. It may even be unnecessary for the new American citizen rmy to fire a single shot before the war ends with the col- apse of Prussian absolutism. The third year of the war has Siocracy tower higher and higher above the puny influence of shot and shell upon the outcome of the war Not generalship upon the field of battle, but the rights of the common people, are now certain to determine the peace terms, Never before in its history has the world seen non-milita influences rise to dominate the outcome of a great war, as ha s{occurred during the past third year of the European struggle Neither naval operations on the high seas nor offensives in east and west, nor war councils in any of the transatlantic capitals have ed a preponderant influence during the past year upon the war. The two events of the year that are operating decisively to crush ariam are the democratic revolution in Russia and the ac of Germany's submarine challenge by America, as an attack H surrender to een the colossu dem: mil tance @ upon the security of democracy thruout the world. The Russian army may make little substantial progress from now until the war ends; and the new American army may not be ready for the youngest and the conclusively the firing line before peace comes—nevertheless oldest of the world’s modern democracies e already influenced the struggle by the spiritual force of th democracies of Great Britain and France for the f The third year of the war hae proven there is something stronger in the world than material power. The central empires retain the material power of their armies tn Surope practically intact Nevertheless the central powers are beaten. The kaiser knows it; Von Hindenburg knows It; Ludendorff knows it, and all th ple of Germany are beginning to know It. only q tion is whether the Hohenzollerns can prevent yet & while longer # full descent to the bottom of the bill where complete democratic government awaits the German people. At the top of the hill absolutism rests, toward which the militar ists have tried to climb with so appalling an expenditure of blood and treasure during the past three years The first steps downward have now been taken, and there can be no turning back for the kaiser. For, each new promise and every plausible urance will quickly prove untrue as the war continues, and will engender deeper and deeper discontent within the German empire. This is the reason: The third year of the war has seen not only the invitations of the Russian and American racie nded to t German people to free th It has eeen, as well, a free hand given to the Germ iste to do whatever lay In their power to win the war—with results calamitous for the central empires. During the first two years of the flict the civilian statesmen in Germany exercised a moderate control over the chiefs of the army and navy, in international affairs, affecting neutrals. The militarists claimed during the third year of the conflict that the “timidity” of the civilian statesmen was preventing Germany from winning the war. So the direction of German statesmanship, little more than six months ago, was placed in full control of the general staffs of the army and navy. For the first time since the outbreak of the war militarism reigned in Germany, absolutely unhampered by even the slightest civilian control. And the result has been the entrance of America into the war and the failure of Germany's ruthless submarine campaign! No great nation has ever shown such gross inefficiency as the German military authorities have exhibited the past six months. This hasn't been Bethmann-Hollweg’s half year. He is the first scapegoat. It has been Hindenburg’s and Ludendorff's And now the policies of Hindenburg and Ludendorff are being revealed to all Germany as the designs of madmen made drunk by the blood of the battlefields. M rism is committing suicide in the halls of the German for. eign offica The first to realize the new situation was the young Em. peror Karl of Austria-Hungary If a bloody revolution occurs in Germany against the Hohen sollern rule, its beginning will be dated from the time when Karl of Austria-Hungary began to show his independence of Prussian con trol, toward the end of the third year of the war. His dismissal from the premiership of Hungary of Count Tisza thoroly Prusianized in thought and method, was the first public inti mation of Karl's new policy Then followed a sudden intimacy, himself and the king of Bavaria. intimacy may lead to open defiance of the Hobenzollerns varia has begun to loom large as Prussia’s rival for the leadership of the German empire. The only royal commander of Germany's armies who has made a reputation on his merits during the present war is the Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria; while Count Hertling, Bavaria's pre mier, is considered In Germany to be the empire's leading statesman New Bavarian ambitions at Prussia’s expense have been engen dered by the war, and it is natural that they shoyld be encouraged by Austria. For Austria has never forgotten that her defeat by Prussia in 1866 was what led to the foundation of the German empire and to the subordination of Austria among the Teutonic monarchies. If an opportunity now arises for the House of Hapsburg to be revenged, after 61 years, upon the House of Hohenzollern, Emperor Karl has shown he y possess the necessary pluck to take a chance SHOULD THE KAISER AND HIS FAMILY FOLLOW THE ROMANOFFS IN THE FOURTH YEAR OF THE WAR, BERLID 18 NOT SO MUCH THE PLACE TO WATCH FOR PRELIMINARY SIGNS AS ARE VIENNA AND THE CAPITALS OF BAVARIA AND THE OTHER SOUTH GERMAN STATES.
