Till: PRESIDENTS REPLY
TO GERMANY'S PEACE NOTE.
In his reply to the German peace
note, President AVilson said In part:
"Ho deems it his duty to say again,
however, that the only armistice he
would feel Justified in submitting for
consideration would be one which
should leave the United States and the
powers associated with It in a posl
tlt.n to enforce any arrangements that
may bo entered Into and to make a
renewal of hostilities on the part of
Germany Impossible.
"The president has, therefore,
transmitted his correspondence with
the present German authorities to the
governments with which the govern
ment of tho Unltod States is associa
ted as a belligerent with tho sugges
tion that If those governments are dis
posed to effect peace upon tho terms
and principles indicated, their mili
tary advisers and tho military advis
ors of tho United States he asked to
submit to the governments associated
against Germany tho necessary terms
of such an armistice as will fully
protect the Interests of the people
involved, and Insure to the associated
governments tho unrestricted power
to safeguard and enforce tho details
of tho peace to which tho German
government has agreed, pre vlded they
deem such an armistice possible from
tho military point of view. Should
such terms of armistice be suggested,
their acceptance by Germany will af
ford best concrete evidonce of her
unequivocal acceptance of tho terms
and principles of peace from which
tlm wholo action proceeds.
Feeling that tho wholo peace of tho
world depends now on plain speaking
and stralchtforwnrd action, tho presi
dent deems It his duty to sa without
nuy attempt to soften what mny seejn
harsh words, that the nations of the
worl'l do not nnd cannot trust the
v ord of thoso who have hitherto been
the mnstors of German policy, and to
point out onco more that in conclud
ing pence' nnd attempting to undo tho
Infinite- unjuries nnd Injustices of this
war the government of the United
States cannot deal with any but vert
ablo representatives of tlio German
people who have been assured of a
genuine constitutional standing as the
real rulers of Germany.
"If it must deal with tho military
ir.astera and the monarchical auto
crats tf Germany now, or If it is like
ly to have to deal with them later in
regard to tho International obliga
tions of tho German empire, it must
demand, not poaco negotiations, but
surrender Nothing can bo gained by
leaving this essential thing unsaid."

Thi.i Is the beginning of tho neces
sary appropriations necessary from

paign as outlined by the secretary
and approved in government councils.
The campaign will be carried to a

Do You Think There is
No Competition?
If anyone thinks there is no competition amongst
the big packers he ought to go through a day's
work with Swift & Company.
Let him begin at the pens w..en the live stock
comes in; let him try to buy a nice bunch of fat
steers quietly and at his own price without some
body's bidding against him.
Let him realize the scrupulous care taken at the
plant that not one thing is lost or wasted in order
that costs may be held to a minimum.
Let him go up into the office where market m
reports are coming in, and reports of what other'
concerns are doing.
Let him watch the director of the Swift Refrig
erator fleet, maneuvering it over the face of the
country like a fleet of battleships at sea.
Let him take a trip with a Swift & Company
salesman and try to sell a few orders of meat.
Let him stay at a branch house for an hour
or two and see the retail meat dealers drive their
bargains to the last penny as they shop around
among the packers' branch houses, the wholesale
dealers, and the local packing plants.
And then, when the day is over, let him have
half an hour in the accounting department, where
he can see for himself on what small profits the
business is done. (Less than 4 cents on each dollar
of sales.)
If he still thinks there is no competition in the
meat business it will be because he wants to think so.
