E MUST buy bonds to the last cent of our
ability, because our country is fighting for
its very Iife.’ Make no mistake, citizens of

' America, the crisis 18 Just that—we are fighting . ,

for out very life.

We must fight this war through We must a

fight it through to a peace the basis of which
will be written by us and our allies.

Germany must not write a single clause in
the Treaty. She must be whipped until she will
sign a treaty every word of which will be drawn
by the Allies. Germany must not be allowed to
dot an i or cross a t.

Why?

Because Germany has become nothing but
a robber empire, a murderer empire, an empire
every purpose of which is the enslavement of
the rest of the world. Such purposes admit of
no compromise. We must conquer or die. If we
do not conquer we shall, nevertheless, die —
and die slaves. '

Germany began” with the intention of rob-
bing France. of her iron, her coal, her best land
and her great factories; of mahing Belgium With
her rich mines, great cities and immense fac-
tories- a__ part of Germany; of gaining 'the' Bel-
gian coast, from which she might conquer Eng-
land; and of combining under-her flag the hordes
of Mohammedan Turhs, and all the Balhan
States, so that she might train soldiers in count-
less millions, build navies to sweep the oceans,
and conquer the world.

Russia with her nearly 200,000,000 people
lies prostrate at Germany's feet. Germany could-
now give up the Balkan-States. give up Belgium,
force Austria to yield up the Italian territories,
give up conquered France, yes. she could give
up these, and even Alsace-Lorraine, and if al-
lowed a free hand in Russia, she would still
have won a victory greater than any of which
she ever dreamed at the beginning of the war.

Give her control of Russia and she can. and
will, within a few years come bach with power
to take bach Alsace-Lorraine, crush poor Bel-
gium once more and destroy exhausted France,
sweep every vestige of resistance from Europe,
Asia and Afi'ica, and then what?

Then she will thunder at our doors —from
Asia she will invade us on the West, from Europe

If Germany has control oVer the terms of
peace, we who read this will live to see one of

The time to whip Germany is now! "

It is now or. never!

The Princes of Berinany are shaking dice for the United
States!

It will take money, money, smoney, that we may send.
