DROVE WORLD
TO WAR CHAOS
Historic Phase of Causes of
War Outlined by Rev.
H. J. Moore.
Kaiser and His Class Must
be Driven to Their Knees
to Get Peace.
At the Baptist church last evening
Rev. Harvey J. Moore gave one of the
most severe arraignments of Prus
slanlsm in general and the kaiser in
particular that has been heard in
Grand Forks. Mr. Moore went into
the subject historically In order to
malfe clear the full significance of the
present great conflict.
At the first peace conference at the
Hague, he explained, an honest effort
was made by most of the nations to
limit armaments and to arrange for
the settlement of international
troubles by arbitration. Both of these
great plans, however, were opposed
by Germany and Austria, although
approved by England, France, Kussia
and the United States.
Always "Slight Is Right."
At the second conference in 1907
Germany and Austria refused even to
discuss these matters. Meanwhile
3 many of their leading writers were
writing books justifying war, claiming
that conquest was the natural right of
'v, a strong nation, and that dreams of
peace were only for weaklings and
backward peoples. The kaiser him
self was continually glorifying the
army as the foundation of the state
.and impressing upon the German na
*tion that it was by war that the
fatherland had grown in the past and
that It would be by war that she
would grow in the future. Talk about
the next war was very common In
Germany, Bernhardi's famous book
on the subject being only one of many.
How War Was Forced.
In 1913 the German army was

Men of Grand Forks may be wear
ing kilts instead of the good old
familiars before long, as a result of
war-
Already England is considering
adoption of kilts as a result of the
government's advice to men to wear
clothes of one color to conserve dye
stuffs.
greatly increased and rumorB of com
ing war became still more frequent.
As Is well known, the ultimatum given
to Serbia by Austria on July 23, 1914,
was the most Insulting document ever
sent to one independent government
by another. There is every reason to
believe that this was done with the
full knowledge and consent of the
German kaiser and even-at his sug
gestion. While every other nation has
published their diplomatic corre
spondence in regard to this matter,
the central powers have not published
any of the correspondence that went
on between Berlin and Vienna during
those momentous days. In fact, it has
alnce been established by Irrefutable
evidence that this whole plan was ar
ranged at a~ conference between Ger
many and Austria, held at Potsdam
on July 5.
Of the wholly unjustifiable nature
of the Invasion of Belgium there can
be no doubt as the kaiser himself and
his chancellor have admitted it. Of
the horrible nature of the treatment of
the Belgians there can likewise be no
doubt. Over ten thousand separate
cases have been documented with the
testimony of eyewitnesses and in
thousands of cases with photographs
of the victims. And it must be borne
in mind .that this was not the scat
tered work of drunken soldiers it was
part of a definite official plan, an ex
emplification of German efficiency.
Indeed the kaiser himself once ad
dressing his own- soldiers bade them
imitate the Huns that followed Altilla
and so act that the name of Germany
would make men tremble for a thou
sand years to come.
World's Peace Menaced.
It Is easy to see that there can be
no stable peace In this world as long
as the nations are at the mercy of a
man like the kaiser, who at any mo
ment can plunge the world Into an
other war with all its attendant hor
rors. Peace with Germany now would
be simply a temporary truce, in which
preparations would be carried on for
the next .war. Indeed, in Germany
"even now they are talking of what
they will do "next time."
If the world Is going to be a safe
place, If our own country is going to
be able to go on peacefully and with
out fear, Prusslanlsm and kaiserism
must be crushed out forever.
I A man who talks about immediate
peace is either a .knave or a fool and
of the two the fool is the more dang
erous, for one can hang a knave, but
against a fool there is no protection.
The only safety for free government
is to fight the war to a finish, to bring
Germany to her knees in repentance
for her sins, and to rid the world of
every form of irresponsible autocracv.
'The kaiser has called Ferdinand of
Rumania a renegade and a traitor to
Hohenzollern traditions—which is
quite a compliment to Ferdinand.

It is pointed out kilts are more dur
able than trousers and are the ideal
dress for boys, affording greater
warmth for the abdomen and greater
freedom for the legs. The presence
of Scottish troops throughout Eng

there.

The report says the federal trade

its greed for excessive profits, had im

WAR BREAD TO
BETRIEDIN
PHILADELPHIA
Hoover Sends Aide to Show
Bakers How to Make
Five Cent Loaf.
Philadelphia, Oct.
3.—Philadelphia
Is to be the scene of an experiment by
Herbert C. Hoover, National food ad
ministrator, in the preparation of a
five-cent loaf of war bread. It is also
proponed to establish a standardized
method of makisg the bread. The
new war loaf will, it is said, effect a
saving of sugar, lard and milk and
yet be wholesome.
The department of agriculture, in
ctr-oper.ition with Mr. Hoover, has
sent P. N. Jacobs, of the bureau of
chemistry, to instruct bakers here in
the preparation of the bread. Mr.
Jacobs said in an interview:
"The exact weight of the new loaf
I cannot tell at present,' but I will
say that its size will effect a consider
able saving over present prices. After
the experiment is tried out in this
city, we will establish the ^ame meth
ods and recipes in every section of
the United States. I anticipate no dif
ficulty in securing the co-operation
of the bakers, as we are satisfied that
If they carry out instructions they
will bo able- to put the new bread on
the market at a profit that will allow
them to continue business as usual."
