we are told hy men who profess to

expect people who. if not either very

are not absolute idiots, to believe that
no human jxivver has the right to call
a criminal wearing a crown to ac
count for his evil deeds. It Is very
.chMtr that our morality wants refur
nishing.
In this clear statement the Statist
expresses the views which the Man
ufacturers Record has held from the
beginning of the wnr.
The men in (icruiany and Austria
who have been responsible for the
war. regardless of the fact that some

held to a strict jiersonal accountabil

punished accordingly, civilization
would have failed of Its duty to the
future.
To Kaiser Wllhclin and all the mil
itary autocracy which has been re
sponsible for the unspeakable hor
rors of the last three years the se
verest punishment |>osslble should be
meted out. Death Ik*fore the tiring
squad, or even death on the gallows,
would he almost too good for them.
Hut that every one of them should
pay the full penalty of their crimes
must inevitably be true. unless all
civilization is to condone murders and
rapists and every other form of vlle
ness against humanity, and deal len
iently with men merely liecause they
have held exalted positions.
He who sjfs on. a royal throne and
Is guilty of murder deserves death
oven more than the poor, despised
criminal in the lowly walks of life
who destroys his fellow-man. Indeed,
it ought to he possible to find some
form of punishment more cxcrutiating
ly severe than that of death itself.
Connected with such punishment
should be every possible iguomity to
which these people can be subjected
by any decent civilization.
The civilization that would permit
Kaiser Wllhclin. the Crown Prince,
or jiiin <'f the military leaders respon

Kvolution of War.
During the past, three years the
?science of war has undergone radical
j changes, rendering obselete much which
! past effort and study had establish
ed as standard. <*avalry has large
ly given way to infantry, which now
I moves farther and faster In motor
cars than was ever jvosslble with anl
I ma Is. Machine guns have changed
| the conditions of Infantry attacks.
Heavy artillery at long range now ac
I compilshes much of what formerly
was assigned to an Infantry charge.
The difficult and always jjerllous work
I of the field spy and scout has been
left behind by the airman who gi>es
forth openly and noisily, sweeping
l over enemy lines at a mile a minute.
On sea. it Is no longer the ship which
can shoot the farthest, or the fast
cruiser which can not be overtaken,
that sinks the most enemy ships, but
the submarine whose underwater mis
siles arc often unseen and never heard.
Trench warfare as practiced today
Is an evolution of the old earthwork
idea, but so changed and expanded as
to have little resemblance. It was a
German invention, worked out to in
clude streets and alleys with main ar
terlcs of communication from the rear,
and complete underground habitations
i cepable of housing men by thousands.
; These underground rooms are not only
! one but often two storied deefS, the
! lower level being reached by concealed
i trapdoors. In the Japanese-Kussian
war the Japanese made use of zigzag
I open trenches as a means of approach
! to a fortress, bnt to nothing like the
'?extent employed now.
The development of both the subrna
! ritie and aeroplane has requisitioned
i abilities, training and qualities which
! are largely new. and uncalled for in
; the past. Kspeclally is this true as
regards the aviation corps, which de
mands the best in the superman. So
1 essential and rigid are these require
; ments that our public, unacquainted
with modern warfare has little eon
: epptinn of the qualifications. One
would naturally suppose the ability to
successfully loop the loop time on
time would indicate an airman abund
antly able to leave the fair grounds,
report himself at headquarters, be
1 assigned to a machine-and go aloft
4.m a military mission. As a matter
of fact, such a one is merely an air
-?hauflfer and nothing more. It is not
only a question of undaunted courage
?there are plenty such?nor ability
! to guide a plane through all manner
of pyrotechnic, maneuvers. though
these two things are required. The
army airman must be. and know, and
! do. ever so much more. Indeed the
' operating of a plane under normal
conditions is only the tirst reader in
the aviation corps.? II. II. Windsor in

PRISONER IR ENGLAND TELLS
OF THE HORRIBlJtiiUTCHERY

I'M# Heche tvally understood the

must call hlui a Boche because he was
Uirn In Munich and was aervlng in

like a foreigner, ami altogether It wan

mII. For yearn, he said, he hail beeu
dealing In land ami mines and thlngM
In America. He happened to he visit
ing l.ondon when the war threatened.
He'd never taken out pa|>ers In the
States, ami he was afraid of Isdng ln
terned pr something, so he sklma'd
out the day before war was declared
and got to Germany. For a long tliue
lie was employed there on si>eelal
work, hut when the Sotiume push was
on last year and men were needed, he
11it41 lo J<?ln up. He had served on
different parts of the front. This Is
what he told, quivering now and
atfalu as he thought of It:
"This war Is the greatest crime the
world has ever seen. The crimes that
made the French Revolutions are noth
ing If you compare them with the
crimes of the beasts who are run
ning (Jermany today, and keeping this
war going. They were only fcldeves
and brigands when they began it, and
thought they'd bring it off, but now
they're the bloodiest murderers by
wholesale that the world ever pro
duced. There never was anything Ilk?
It before. They know perfectly well
they've lost the war; they've known
for months that the last chances they
ever had have gone. But they are too
frightened for their own skins to ad
mit it and call a halt, and because
they are frightened of what the i>eo
ple might do when they learned the
truth, they keep the thing going and
sacrifice many thousands of Germans
every single day and millions of mon
ey?what for? To shield the repu
tations of a handful of princes and
politicians, It's the greatest crime
the world has ever known. Here on
this front our people are being killed
like flies. Your artillery kills them
in bunches. There ^Isn't a minute of
the day but legs and arms are being
blown off. Our men would gladly give
themselves up to end it, but you know
they cannot. When there seems to be
a chance, there is always an officer or
non-commissioned officers about. It
Is not your guns that kill. Many
(Jernians fall every day with German
bullets in them. They are driven like
dogs to the fighting. And to what
end? Because our cursed Kaiser and
(lie creatures we call statesmen are
afraid of their lives for what will
hapjK'ii t<> them when the people know
it'< a 11 up.
?"But plenty of them know it now.
Many knew before ever I was forced
to join up. And perhaps I never
should have been made to join if I
had known less, and never said a
word of what I know. I talked a
little of what I knew. And that is
enough. In Germany today the man
who will tell the truth must be hus
tled out of the way. That Is why I
soo ii<> hope for (Jermany. because
those who are left in the country
have no spirit, can do nothing. All
the strength of the country, such as it
is. is in the fighting lines?helpless as
slaves. Tin* others, there in Germany
they are slaves; starving, starving
quietly, never daring to say a word.
The few who s|>eak soon find them
selves 'hustled into the front line?
and ii<> more is heard of them. They
>ro on paying the price; thousands of
lives every day. every single day. The
Central Powers casualties now must
l>e 100.000 a week?all for what? The
crazy dreams of a few bankers and
merchants, and the cowardly ^ears of
a few politicians and of?of the Ho
henzollerns. They say the Hapsburgs,
'too: but the A list Flans would l>e
thankful to make ]>eaee tomorrow, but
they cannot. They are as much sacri
ficed by J^rlln as we i>oor devils her<
on the front. All the bloody slaugh
ter of this war, with its milliards of
money and thousands of lives lost?
??very single <l?y?what keeiw It go

elded, i* not the will of nations. No,
It Is the murderous criminality ami
cowardice of a HJtle haudful of rneu
In iu-1 lid. who never have been any

that the exhaustion of Germany long

frightful now, has been frightful for
a year and more. They know It all,
and, brute devils they are, they chose
to keep the awful slaughter going, not
