SAYS .GERMANY HAS FAILED "So far ashis war is concerned, Germany has been a failure," said Sir Gilbert Parker, the novelist, at Atn lantic City the other day. "Organized forty years, she had everything, with her at tha beginning. Great Britian had virtually., aoamyJeiftisiian" army .was ir chaos. - The French army Vas inadequately anned: " "Germany ' aimed at Paris, St. Petersburg, and London, through Ca lais. She reached none of these. She aimed to destroy Verdun and failed. She amied to take Ypres and failed. Her one success in the war on land has been Roumania. Understand I am not depreciating the German aimy It was probably the most highly skill ed, developed, trained and equipped army, as well as the biggest on earth. Germany's organization was magnifi cent, but Germany's morals was wrong. That's why the United Sta tes is in this war. "If the morale of Germany had not been wrong she would not have com mitted the atrocities she did commit -against all rules of civilized warfare. That's anothef reason why the United States is in the war. The German : morale always has been wrong. In the Franco-Prussian war she com mitted what the world regarded then as atrocious things, but in this war she has thrown aside the most impor tant rules which countries like the United States established. Some one has said this is a war of democracy against autrocracy. It's a much bigger thing than that. Autoc racy might say, What right has de- mocracy to impose its will upon a na tion desiring a certain form "of gov ernment? It's bigger than that. It is a war of liberty and fredonfto safe guardthose elements of nationality for which nations like the United Sta tes have in the past spent their blood and treasure. "My own view is that the one thing with whichv Germany has . been suc cessful is "the submarine. Her air ships, the Zeppelins, have been a fail- -rn -. -1 I ... 11 . TT. "1. J- C1i.J ure. 11 iiingiana or tne umieu oiaves is in position to curbthe submarine, then the days of the war ,are num bered." Sir Gilbert said the, coming -of peace and the returning of the fighting men to England would be followed by the blotting out of party .lines as now constituted there and tremeridous changes ' along ? socialogical Jines so great -that he hesitated to predict their scope.

The situation in China, continues extreemly tense. A mandate of dis--solution of parliment has been drawn by the president, as demanded by the military governor of the province of Anhwei, but Dr. Wu Ting, Fang, the acting premier, has declined to sign it, an action necessary to make it effective.
