In ft Possible t? Believe It?
' There are 1,890.000 people, "of atl ages,
in VirKiuia who <li?J not. buy a bond of
the Second or Third liberty Loan.
Then* are 2.202,000 in North Carolina,
There rtre l?,IlO0,OOO in South Carolina,
There art* l.OOTi.OOO in Woiit Virginia,
There are 1,105,000 iu Maryland.
This, too, ix upon the assumption ? on
the Kidf of liberality? that norie of the
people "who subscribed to the Second
Loan subscribed to the Third. Thin we
know, of course, in not the tMW.
What i'iiii thefe people who are able
t*? buy way in extenuation V How eon
they ever look a returned soldier boy in

Confiscation of war bond* toy Germany

to WYer every dollar expended by th$
Allies.
An indemnity to the family of every
soldier m ordered by Germany a* be strug

barbarism, and likewise to every soldier
wounded or invalided by disease. ?
Germany to be held In Hubjection by
the urmles of America tiki the Allies uu
til these terms are completed to the final
e|ld.
To these broad atateineuta many <ie
tuilh may be added. These should iO'
uludf. for iuMtance, the replacement by
new sh^ps built by Germany, tou for too,
for every whip murdered by the subma
rines. und until these ship* have been
built and turned over to the Allies Geir-'
many should not be permitted to build
for itself n single ship.
' If we should impose upon Germauy
any lighter punishment than ip here in'
dlcated, wes would be merely encourag
ing; the peoplo nf that country to pre
lum* for another war.
If the worlct 1h to be made safe from"
u ?repititlou of Germany'* fcurtul primes,
it Ik not enough that there should be a
league of nation* to guarantee peace.
That league -would?be -valueless unless
Germany to a certain extent 1* placed
in bondage through the many years re
ijuired. for the payment of the indemni
ties which should be imposed upon that
coiiutry.
1 n order t bat ull clashes*.. from the I
highest l<> t he lowest. shall feel the full
effect of huviug to atone, as fur as iu
human power, to those who have been
imtmverifthed, to the families of those who
have died on the battlefields, to the mil
lions permanently invalided who must
go through life suffering au ever-present
physical agony, or \^vlio, in blindness or
limbless, .must struggle until J he end of
the Journey to make a living under Nueh
adverse conditions, these indemnities
must he renulrod of Germany. .1
Hlia.ll we for one moment consider It
SiiaL tliut Xlicini-wmmdttL ilist-atii'd and
in nilnod in en shall in po.v.euty or through
hardships struggle to the end of life
while (ho people of the assn^sin nations
of (lormuny and iin allieK are left free
to rebuild their fortunes? <s
The German soldiers who have died or
been invalided are merely those who
gladly and joyously ran contrary to the
laws of God and man in their effort to
murder and to rob others. There ia uo
more reason why We should have pity
for them than why we should have, pity
for the tieiul who dishonors womanhood,
or for the midnight marauder who 'mur
der* and roba the innocent peepl^: Who
wtand between him and 'the looting of
'the household. x rV . .. 7-/;
WcpjnUNt look not merely to the pre
sent in considering the penalty which
inunt be impoxed upon Germany and its
allien, for we must bear 'in mind that
Germany haa beeu the greatest interna
tional murderer and robber of history.
It has committed on an unprecedented
Mcalc crime* which in individuals neces
sarily bring forth the death penalty.
Germany must suffer for its crimes
in exactly the same way that, the indi
vidual criminal must pay the penalt.v
fol- his evil^work.
The terms of payment Which we have
suggested would not destroy Gerjnflny'a
power to develop its business interests
nor permanently imi>overiah its people.
These terms would merely require that
u nnTlon of freebooters and murderers
shall to the extent of their ability re
place by their own work the thiugs they
have destroyed and of wh^h they have
robbed other nations. Even then they
can never in the slightest degree otone
for all of 'the sorrows and the agonies
which they have brought upon the world.
That the death penalty should be tn~
flirted upon the leading criminals guilty
of bringing on this world war and its
atrocities, from the Kaiser to the Em
peror of Austria ami the Hxiltnn of Tur
! key aud the King of Bulgaria down to
the men who were resiMMisible for the
murder of Edith Cavell, for the murder
of Captain Marryntt. fo^ the murder
of every man and woman killed by tin*
crimes of the submarines, for every mail
responsible for the murdering of inno
cent men, women and children in Bel
gium and -France and Serbia and Arme
nia, admits of no question.
Civilization has undertaken a great
task. It was compelled in order to save
itself to light to the end a war against
a great gang of murderers and out ra
gers. It will be false to all the future
If it faila to make a thorough job of it
and compel these murder ft and assassins
to surrender unconditionally and then
Vo punish them Mth as much as that
which we have here suggests. To do
less would he to comnfit a crime and to
be unjust to the dead and to the living
and to the generation* yet. to come.
Civilisation faces its most tremen
dous task and must now prove its right
to exist. Is civilization equal to the call
of God to punish crime by a nation of
criminal* as freely as it punishes crime
of the individual assassin aud rapist? If
It baits and holds back and refuses to do'
its duty, then surely the nations of the
world are not worthy of Almighty t^od's
blessing and should parish from the
earth.
The thirtieth vers* of the eighth ? linp
Ur of Peutronomy reads :
"As the nations which the lxmi dc
stroyeth l^efore your face, so shall jre
perish : because ye would not |pa o be*
dient unto 'the voice of the yotir1
God."
