FRIDAY, MAY 31, 1918 German Purpose and German Peace Germany's purpose in the war is made evident from every step which is taken. The "peace terms" imposed upon Russia and Roumania tell it, terms which are intended to cripple those nations so that they may never again become stumbling blocks in the path of progress of Germany. The enemy country subjugated, -- that is Russia, that is Roumania, to- day. / War is never gentle with the enemy country but Germany's policy is no less selfish with friends than with a late antagonist. Austria by the terms of the agreement arranged between the two emperors is established as scarcely more than a province of Germany. It is an incident to the Prussian domination begun and ex- tended to the utmost that the present conditions of European nations per- mit. : That similar terms would be the portion of Italy, of France, of any nation which should now seek or accept separate peace with the " Kaiser can no more be doubted than As a conclusive argument against harken- the rising of tomorrow's sun. ing to the sweet sounding peace pro- posals from the war party of Ger- many these countries which have heard and listened stand without answer.
