T": Allies and the United States will not overestimate the Seriousness of the reported action of the German Soldiers’ Councils in seizing the German northern fleet and the naval base at Heligoland with the desperate purpose of resisting the jarmistice terms. * Directly those terms were published in all their drastic detail Bg fhere were bound to be reactions of German fighting instinct in quar ! Although Germany’s great military machine has been smashed, | _ parts of it may still be expected to function spasmodically under the [despairing efforts of a few Germans who would rather die than accept, e\ hs consequences of defeat. The fact remains that among the German people generally the! jwar impulse ran out with the collapse of German fighting power in the field. There is not enough of it left to back either army or fleet. | ‘Dismay at the severity of the armistice conditions may find ite first By expression in anger and protest. But the stronger tendency through-| out Germany will be to take full stock of the disaster, submit to the! inevitable and hope that justice may be tempered with mercy, - { The Allies and the United States have at their command an joverwhelming force with which to put the clamps on what is left of , a German military power. |, ‘Sporadic defiance and resistance on the part of surviving be- ‘lievers in & fighting Germany on land or sea will only result in their : ‘swift destruction. . What has happened in the case of the northern fleet was foreseen | ‘by the Supreme War Council of the Associated Powers, which added a) ‘ ‘supplementary clause to the armistice terms providing that in the ‘ % ‘event the six German battle cruisers, ten battleships, eight light eruis- ‘ers, 160 submarines and fifty destroyers were not handed over to the Allies and the United States because of: mutinies in the German navy, ithe Associated Powers reserved the right to occupy Heligoland as an yadvance base to enable them to enforce the terms. ‘ ' Unless the German authorities ‘who signed the armistice are! ry for the Allied and American fleets to use force to compel the jearrying out of the conditions, they, will take swift measures to get ‘the mutineers in hand. ————-+ \ As a next step in the celebration dig into your i pocket and help along the United War Work Campaign. | ' If the victory means anything it means that destruction is over and construction comes into its own again.

For I do think that, if you can’t afford a real imported hat, those made after French pattern can hardly be told, and, in fact, if you ask them to they will put in imported labels for you at the shops, and then you can pre- tend it cost twice as much as it did.” “Why don’t you buy a pair of dia- mond earrings for Christmas while you are about it?” asked Mr, Jarr with feigned geniality. ° Mrs, Jarr did not notice the cor- diality was camouflage. “Oh, may 1?” she asked. “How kind of you, dear!
