WHY ITIS IMPOSSIBLE
FOR GERMANY TO WIN
The Germans can never win this
war! Even if the kaiser defeats Italy;
even if he defeats Krance; even if he
makes peace with Russia and Rou
mania; even if he continues to have
his way in the Balkans and Poland
even then the kaiser will not be in as
strong a position as Napoleon once
was.
And Napoleon, his armies bled white
with victories, was finally defeated,
and spent his last days i,n exile at St.
Helena. I
Even though the kaiser should bej
victorious on land, it would be short-;
lived, and the spoils would have to be!
returned and full reparation made. |
Why? Simply because the United
States, Great Britain and Japan can
still shut the Germans from the seas.
With free access to the raw-material
resources of practically the whole
world, the allies can maintain an econ
omic blockade of Germany until the'
German people will establish a peo
ple's government with which lasting
peace can be made. The United States'
and Great Britain will never surrender,
ff w'orse comes to worst, they will eon-1
tinue the war against Kaiserism on
the sea and in the air until the Ger
mans will gladly make a lasting peace.
But the kaiser hasn’t defeated Italy.
He hasn't defeated France. The allies I
are getting stronger every day as the
United States throw's her gigantic
w'eight in man powerand resources
against
were at their zenith in the opening^
days of the war three and one-bal?
years ago and are getting just that,
much weaker every day.
The same thing that defeated Na-*
polean will defeat the kaiser. What?
Sea-power. No the Germans can never
win this war!—Farm and Fireside.
