WHAT THE VICTORY OR
DEFEAT OF GERMANY
MEANS TO EVERY AMERICAN
(Contributed by ALBERT PAYSON
TERHUNE, author and globe-trotter,
to the Natlonul Security League's
campaign of Patriotism Through Education.)
Germany's victory wxmld menu all
that the alarmists have said?the setback
of humanity, democracy, civilization,
rights of mas, etc. But, to America,
it would moan lnllnltely more.
It would moan oar first national defeat
; and, thus, would amash our perfect
record for victories?a record as
. old as our nation?a record that means
more than the right to brag. Even as
,a beaten army never wholly regains its
told form?oven aa a beaten ring champion
sinks at once into desuetude?so
our nation (Its traditions of victory
gone) would suffer far worse deterioration
than the mere fuct of defeat could
Inflict.
{ It wonld mean that the man who has
risked ull In his country's struggle for
.Right could never again fool his former
calm certainty that Right must triumph.
Thus, the moral tone of the Individual,
as well as of the nation,
would inevitably be lowered.
This country lias never embarked in
a war of conquest. From 1775 to the
present we have fought for Liberty ur
for Union or for the Oppressed -ever
for some sterling principle of right.
From childhood we have been taught
to believe that tne nign unsemsnness
of our war alms has given us the victory.
We have seen the decay or destruction
of men and nations that have I
battled for dominion?aa Germany la
"now battling. Should we fnll In this, ;
!our mightiest war for the Itlght, the ;
(average man must lose forever the (
simple Faith which hns led our deur
country from nothingness to Its pros- ;
, .slit estate. For that Faith, more than !
tfor anything else, our sacrifice la a

Tribune," to the National Security s
League's campaign of Patriotism

Although Germany, while yet a !:
"friend," intrigued against oar peaoe '

men, women and children, there are F
those among us professing loyalty and t

rights as a nation and an the Uvea t

our place among oolf-rospectlng people#?that
we are at war; but literally f
for eur aelf preservation as a republic. '
To musale this war-mad wild beast <!
ws hsve taken up arms?that the i
world shall be safe for the freemen of fc
the world. i
The world cannot rest In peace while j
Oermany holds the destiny of other
peoples In her blood-drlpplng hands.
The world cannot live in peace with '
r people that commits, or permits her r
sponsors to commit in her name, the
foul acts of treuchery, of vandalism,
of bestiality, of murder, that have
marked the trail of the Oerman army
over Europe.
One doctrine or the other must prevail
; either the German brutal light of
might or the civilized might of right?
one or the other?must succumb In ttfls
conflict to the death. And should it
be the Oerman doctrine?then shall we
fall under the domination of a people
that have robbed and raped and looted
and burned and killed, that the
"kultur" of a military oligarchy shall

PruMlanlsm is devoid ef honor,
truth, justice or mercy, ss Its own acts
have proved, and Its defeat is a necessary
*rat step for the peace of the
world and the freedom of civilization.
Per the safety of American Institutions
it must be destroyed; for the
safety of American freedom, yours and
mine and of all of us.
We are la the midst of war, onr war,

RESIDUE-RUSSIA NEW
NAME FOR RUSSIA
Amsterdam, April 30.?(Correpondence
of the Associated Press)?
Residue-Russia" is the name given
o what is left of the Russian empire
>y Prof. Paul Rohrbacy, the German
listorian. Lecturing before a large
Ludience in Berlin, he said:
"Petrograd, shorn of the western
trovinces, the Ukraine, and Bessara>ia,
is only a residue. Danger from
lussia in any shape is no longer to
>e feared by Germany. Russia is
low a mere geographical conception
md nothing more. And it will be
inything else. Its powers of coheion,
reorganization, and reconstrucion,
are gorte forever.
"As a world-power Russia has ceasd
to exist, and all the talk about
he great nation which haB not yet
teen destroyed is simply sentimental
ubbish. The nation no longer exsts
save as an inchoate mass. Resilue-Russia
may still have 100,000,000
nhabitants. This looks stupendous,
>ut it contains no element of danger,
^he great resource and reliance of
tussia used to be her export of grain.

There's a service flag close by;

There are the food conservation problems,
There are hospital garments to

There's work in the "surgical dressings"

But it's hotter than that in the
trenches,
And on "No Man's Land" with its
gloom.
We get so tired, so weary,
Heart-sick and soul-sick and blue;
But th esoldiers get tired and wounded,
And they stay there, all true.
We women are needed sorely,
To help in a woman's way?
God help us to see the duty,
And work as well as pray.
