The Germain Predicament.
. IF the German people are as sick" (if
war as .information from the iuterior
"AVijfiiifffon to belipvc they are.
It <i* possHHe thatL they may force their
Government to take the abort cut to
peace through a surrender of <he German
armies. President Wilson's answer ijn-;
quest ion a l>l.v relegated the question of I
an armistice. doing into it under the
conditions laid dowu by the President
and instated upon by all the Allied
Governments, Germany would Jiud bcr-|
self Stripped of any advantage which
might .have been hoped for. The arm is. J
tk*jfc has beeu sBorn of. any attractions
it might have held, and the , country
need n6t '' be at all. surprised at the
announced conclusion of Germany to ac
cept; the Inevitable and raise the white |
Hag. It is morfe than likely she would
elect to stack her. arms than to force
an invasion of her territory by halting
too long in Iter decision. Germany's
next step depends upon whether she
would be willing to prolong the agony.
An argument strongly pulling her away
from a cdursf of that kind is derelop
with steadily iucreasing force on the!
western' froat, whpre an already bad1
situation for her armies is becoming
Vorsc ' and where eseajHJ frdm capture
i*^ being made daily a more difficult prop-!
osition. Everywhere along the fast pre
ceding battle line the British, French,
Americans and Italians are visiting new
disasters on the Kaiser*s-"troo|?s, to the
emphasizing of 4he argument that 'if
Germany desires to avoid invasion of
German soil. *he has nor many uights
in which to sleep over the document
' )?< cenlly forwarded to Berlin by the
American President. The detail of Irou
-We? the? German Government it? being
"called upon ta take iu hand is occumu
iatins: at a distracting rate7' and tbe(
itekhstag appears .to be iu about as
badly an unsettled state a? are the
German people. Those of the war critics
who are predicting thai Germany will
Jje^wiHiug to. make any sacrifice rather'
Tfife~go tbrongh anotber winter of ^war
are standing on firm ground- ^ Those who
"ire^p.ecting a total German military

prove to be standing on ground but

.The removal, i?o far as possible, |
of all economic t barriers and the estab

to the peace and- associating themselves
for its maintenance.,
