is it the kaiser could lick the whole world. In the present war, Germany, under the leader- ship of her kaiser and his confidents and advisors, has shown clearly the flower and promised seed of her theory that anything is fair in war which wins. She has shown that plunder is her aim and brutality her Weapon. The German government itself has stolen the machinery and raw material of Belgium and northern France for its own uses. Germany, after assailing the allies for accepting the aid of Japan—“The Yellow Race”—tried to bribe that same Japan to attack the United States. German agents, before we entered the war against her, blew up factories, burned grain and grain fields and placed bombs in coal-bunkers of ships sailing from our ports. The German ambassador in Washington paid out millions for such purposes. Germany signed a treaty with Russia at Brest- Litovsk and, before the ink was dray, broke every pro- vision in it. Germany tried to drag Sweden into the war “be- cause Russia had seized the Aland islands in the Gulf of Finland” and now has induced Finland to take pos- session of them. Germany has sunk ships of neutral nations—Nor- way, Holland, Spain, Brazil, Argentine and others. Germany induced Turkey to murder hundreds of thousands of Armenians—men, women and children. The German army burned thousands and thousands of houses, including scores of churches, solely and alone because Belgium refused to let the German army at- tack France over Belgian soil. Germany sank unarmed merchant ships of the allies and of the United States, without warning. as Second-Class Matter May 3, 1899, at the Postoffice at Geattic, Wasb.. under the Act of Congress March 3. 1878.

's Power With approximately 50,000 union men and women in Seattle labor demonstrated its magnificent strength nday. Workers in this er—for advancing public welfare. Properly directed, power of labor is unlimited here. The workers of the d are entitled to rule—and they will. But their rule be just. Their power must, in these days of trial strife, be given in aid of the government. Seattle ion labor, giving itself over whole-heartedly to the busi- r of winning this war, has sufficient numbers to make nation sit up and take notice. Directed in wrong channels, however, even 10 times 60,000 will avail nothing. Might, of itself, does not make t. Let labor resolve that its might shall also be right. “such might, all of Seattle—and the whole of this nation— will be sincerely proud. The real and great “world series” is being fought— not played—over there. Whips Dad As a general thing we are not in favor of permitting boys to adminster corporal punishment to their erring fathers. fathers which bring about these exceptions. But there are exceptions. There are times and Such a time now and such a father Bennie Felton, of Chicago, has. Bennie took his dad to the proverbial woodshed and ‘gpeverely chastized him. “It was needed,” Bennie explained to the police court “Father insisted upon saying disloyal things. He said He wouldn't take back and so I whipped him.” The judge dismissed the case against Bennie. The Germans seem to be pretty good at conducting successful retreats, but we'd rather have them good at that than anything else.—Columbus Ohio State Journal, _ Big Stores and Big Men Every big city has big stores. But not every big city has big men running its big stores. Evidence of bigness was apparent in The Star Monday when the Bon Marche publicly congratulated and extended good will to its competitors, Frederick & Nelson, who today open their new establishment. Seattle is a bigger, better and broader city than ever before. And Seattle’s men bigger, too. Spreading war taxes is merely the profiteer’s scheme to realize more on his toll-taking dream. “Turks treat U.S. prisoners well,” for which the sultan is sure to get “bawled out” by Wilhelm.

THE SEATTLE STAR—-TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1918. Germany sank hospital ships plainly marked with- out warning, German airships have bombarded Red Cross hos- pitals, known and plainly marked as such, At least one German general, Stringer, ordered his men to kill all wounded and prisoners. German officers and men have committed murder and ked women, without punishment, roness Huard, formerly Frances Wilson of New B Rochelle, N. Y., whose home is at Chateau de Villers, France, says in the August number of the American Magazine, that the German officers and soldiers “made victims of every woman in the village, from girls of only 10 years to old women,” including some who were so afflicted physically “that any man should have pitied them.” And ¢ many today, knowing she cannot win world power in this war, is fighting for an outcome which will permit her to begin the next war under more favorable conditions, In this war she now finds arrayed against her 25 nations with others on the verge of joining hands with the allies, _ Uf the kaiser and crown prince remain in control of Germany, their plan is to irritate the world against the United States and then strike at her—alone tf possible.

No half-way decision is conceivable.” And again: “There is but one response possible from us—Force; force to the utmost, force without stint or limit, the righteous AND TRIUMPHANT FORCE which shall bs cast every selfish dominion down in the dust.” It is this knowledge which has led to a decision to extend the selective service law so as to add 16,000,- 000 to the list of 10,000,000 men registered June 5, 1917. It is this knowledge which has welded 100,000,000 people together in the determination that Germany shall be taught the lesson that ‘“War—her kind of war—does not pay’—the only lesson which will avail to make a repetition of this war impossible. It is this knowledge that has led some of the great leaders in Washington to say that life would not be worth living if a peace came which left us in the shadow of a Germany which still believed in war for the sake of plunder and which bent all its ability and energy to preparing for it. “T feel that there is only one thing in life now and that is to fight THIS war thru to an end, so that my baby shall not be called upon 20 or 30 years from now to go thru a similar hell in resisting a fresh attempt of Germany to enslave the world.” ican soldiec e¢ to his father—one of the great men revealed by the present conflict.

We desire have gone into this war without any for money or land or glory. When y e comes, we will only ask that “the settlement be final.” Now, as a result of the war and of that alone, many companies are making and must make great profits, whether they will or no—far greater than they could have made under any other conditions. These war profits should be taken by the government for the expenses of the war. They cannot be accepted as a gift, even if offered. Therefore, in framing the new tax law, congress should, and congress must, take all or nearly all profits which are the result of the war and of the war alone. Companies have enjoyed these enormous profits for two or three years. We need them now. Let us take them.
