EUROPE MfST I1E KnEE" VIVIANI.
aUKRET, France, April H.
"Germany, iBnornnt of the soul of
France, now In being punished for her
mlstnke," was the declaration made by
Premier Vlvlanl at the opening of the
Departmental Council of Crcusr.
"She thought to llnrl," he continued, "a
divided, frivolous nation, but she met on
Iron wall, against whose heroic resistance
the power of her army was broken. Then,
behold, the iron wall moved, supple and
unbreakable, towaid the western front,
crushing little bv little the army whose
chiefs were not prepared for so long and
bitter a struggle.
"The French nation, misunderstood and
despised, has arisen, ready to pile ac
rlflce on sacrifice, with millions In arms,
preparing for Germany's chastisement.
We are certain of victory the victory of
Justice. We want Europe free, Uelglum
liberated, our lost provinces restored,
Prussian militarism crushed, elnco the
peaco of the world is Irreconcilable with
Its sanguinary whims. We shall accom
plish this task with our allies. We shall
write not only In tho history of France,
but In the annals of humanity, a page
which our sons will read with emotion
'and pride."
BRITAIN DOGGEDLY DETERMINED.
LONDON, April II.
All Germany's cxtra-dlplomatlo peaco
efforts such, for Instance, as Interviews
with the Pope have been vised in Berlin
before being allowed to be sent to New
York, a high oftlcial declares. Tho Social
ist propaganda, suggestions, too, for
terms of peace on the lines of the status
quo ante bellum, etc., will he unavailing.
"Germany must bo beaten Into tho
dust," said this official.
"How long do you think the war will
last?" was tho opening question.
"I never did think It would be a short
war," was the answer. Pressed for a
niore exact statement, the reply came
after a brief but thoughtful pause. "It
will not bo over this time next year."
"Not even If Italy comes In?"
"No, not even If Italy comes In. You
must think of tho terms of peace."
"Germany will have to be humiliated,
and the Germans are a brave people, you
know. We must not forget that, and It
will be hard for them to accept humilia
tion. We will have to beat them Into the
dust. They will have to give up Alsace
and Lorraine. They will have to give
back Belgium, with a big Indemnity to the
Belgians, besides. Schleswlg, too, be
longs to Denmark. They will probably
have to give back Schleswlg. Austrian
Poland has already gone, and Germany
will have to glvo up German Poland.
That Is one of her richest provinces, and
It will be hard to make her Rive up
Poland,
ITALY TO HAVE SHARE.
"Bukowlna and Transylvania will go.
Austria will also lose Bosnia, Herzego
vina, Dalmatla and Croatia. Italy will
Bet the Trentlno and 'Italia Irredenta.'
"And there must be a limitation of
armaments. That Is where Ameilca can
come In and help us In the limitation of
armaments.
"Germany will not accept such terms
easily. Again I say, she must be beaten
Into the dust. And England will fight ten
years for victory, If necessary."
These terms will probably have to be
modified on some points, anyway, but
without question they state what Is In
the Allies' minds now as the price of
peace, and there is little question that
they feel an absolute confidence in their
ability to Impose them on Germany,

In trying to get an order, a competitor offered
to make an allowance for Library Bureau

then using. These all mahogany had
been bought six and a half years before.
The offer placed so high a value upon L. B. ,
equipment that the customer decided L. B.
was the only kind for him.
The old cabinets and desks are still faithful,
to their trust and a new lot of L. B. equip
ment has been added, stacked right up
against the old.
