And the woid of the Kaiser i unworthy of trust. To bo plain the Kaiser is a liar and a cheat, toe worst rascal that was over allowed to breathe the air of Heaven. No wonder that no decent man would want t: make the least effort to reach a peace understanding with a beast so low. j Perhaps the President feels less resentment about the proposition then we do, but when tl'e President knows; a thing or two, and he will never no fooled into any agreement with a man whose character will never let him comply with it. When the offer of peace is backed up by the great German people, with whom this country really has no fight, then it will he time for this country to join hands in no half-hearted way to bring about peace in the world. So long as Germany is dominated by a single man who has not the least idea of human rights and who never thinks of anybody except himself, there is no chance for peace. The President's message to the Pope means that there can be peace only by means of two things: First, A revolution of the German pcoplo; Second, The defeat of the Kaiser in this war. t DUB FOOD SURVEY IS NOW GOING ON i i Should be Looked Into by Every Individual and Firm or Company SEE IF YOU ARE IN TERMS OF ACT Write to the Addresses Given in This Article For i Blanks.

AMERICA'S CAUSE FOR WAR.. "The new German policy swept every restriction aside. Vessels of every kind, whatever, their flag, their character, their cargo, their destination, their errand, have been ruthlessly sent to the bottom without warning and without thuoght of help or mercy for those on board, the vessels of friendly neutrals along with those of the belligerents. Even hospital ship and ships carying relief to the sorely bereaved and stricken people of Belgium, though the latter were provided with safe conduct through the prescribed areas by the German Government itself and were distinguished by unmistakable marks of identity, have been sunk with the same reckless lack of compassion or of principle. * * * "I am not now thinking of the loss of property involved, immense and sc-rious as that is, but only of the wanton and wholesale destruction of the lives of noncombatants, men, women, and children, engaged in pursuits which have always, even in the darkest periods of modern history, | been deemed innocent and legitimate.
