IF IT IN DICATES YOU ARE BEHIND, .PLEASE RENEW. IT IS EX- | PENSIVE TO MAIL PAPERS! GIVE GERMANY A JUST PEACE I The German People being particeps criminis in the most appalling crime of the world's history, | will not escape the responsibility which is theirs The German people must be given a just peace. J That means that their nation, its people and its! c entire resources, must pay the bill. 1 The German people may expect that they will I 1 lose this war. This is inevitable. And they may be ; ■ prepared to abide the consequences of their ■ partnership in the tragedy that their leaders, ■ with their acquiescence and their support, have j . unleashed upon the world. i In the World War No. 1 the allies were appeas-j • ed and beguiled. The armies of retribution hesi . tated upon the German threshhold, and did not ( go in . The allies will not be appeased or beguiled : again. They will go in. The allies know that as long as the proud and i , arrogant Prussian spirit survives there will be: ! no peace in the world. j Unchain the tiger and he will spring again. 1 The "superior race" of Huns must be shown ! that while it is superior in ambition and blood ; thirstiness, it is not superior in righteosness, ! brains, courage or power. The tiger will be chained and its fangs will ho\ pulled out so it may not spring again upon the ' unsuspecting, and so that peace and Creel mi [ and justice may live upon the earth. The Nazi leaders, Hitler with his co-assassins t will meet the retribution that is the portion of } murderers of defenseless women and children, j The German nation will be stripped of its arm- j aments, and the German people together with i the Italian, Japanese, Rumanian, Bulgarian and » Hungrian peoples must be taxed with the cost of this war for generations to wme w T hiie allied armies stand at their doors to collect. The German nation as far as its. power to cre ate new horrors in the world is concerned, must be utterly and irretrievably smashed. i } The above is in answer to the suggestions ai-' ready being made in some capitals that the Ger- i man people are not responsible for Hitler's 1 crimes and should not therefore be punished. The German people ARE responsible for Hit ler's crimes and are a party to them. They knew of Hitler's plans as stated in his addresses, his ( public utterances, his books and his pamphlets. (They were fully cognizant and gave their impli llied as well as express concent. The have back ed as well as express consent. They have back- They must reap the consequences of their guilt. | The democracies of the world will stand for no other settlement. i The blood and treasure of America and her al lies will not be given except for a world peace founded on JUSTICE.
