„I am aware of the demands which this terrible world-war has made on the us sociation during the last four years, and how many present and past members have already died a hero's death. They would not remain behind the thousands of our country's sons who joyfully serified their lives. But it is not only with arms that the Fatherland has to be defended and victory helped along its path; at home also great and important tasks must be fulfilled, and it is just those who have enjoyed an academic education who have chiefly that vocation. The burden of war lies heavily on our people. I shall not of defence against the military ag try to minimise it by words.

I cannot to-day deal with the details of this speech,I intentionally pass over all the other wrong views and warped judgments expressed by him, and I extract only two points. Lord Robert Cecil based has confidence in a final milk tary victory on the steady influx of American troops. Apart from this open avowal of the militarism with which the Entente has reproached us since the be

inning of the war, this hope reminds me of last year's war, in which first faithless Italy and then Roumanig were to bring about the final victory.
