It was defined by President Wilson •in bis speech of April 6. 1918, and ex plicitly and categorically accepted by the German people as a principle covering the peace." Quotes George and Orlando M. Clemenceau in the letter also quotes from speeches delivered by- Premier Lloyd George, of Great Britain, himself as premier of France, and Premier Orlando, of Italy, in which it was specifically de clared that when victory was won, compromise as to peace terms was impossible and just punishment should be meted out. and continues: "Justice, therefore, is the onlv possible basis for the settlement of the accounts of this terrible war. Justice is what the German delega tion asks for and says that Germany has been promised. But it must be justice for all. There must be justice for the dead and wounded and for those who have been made orphans and bereaved that Europe might be free from Prussian despotism. There must be justice for the peoples who now stagger under war debts, which exceed thirty billion, that liberty might be saved. There must be jus tice for those millions whose homes and lands, ships and property, Ger man savagery has spoliated and de stroyed. "That is why the Allied and asso ciated powers have insisted as a cardinal feature of the treaty that] Germany must undertake to make reparation to the very uttermost of j her power, for reparation for wrongs inflicted Is of the essence of Justice. That is why they insist that those individuals who are mott clearly re sponsible for German aggression and for those acts of barbarism and in humanity which have disgraced the German conduct of the war must be handed over to justice, which has not been meted out to them at home. Ruined Her Neighbors "That, too, is why Germany must submit for a few years to certain special disabilities and arrangements. Germany has ruined the industries, the mines and the machinery of neighboring countries, not during battle, but with the deliberate and calculated purpose of enabling her own industries, to seize their mar kets before their industries could re cover from the devastation thus wantonly inflicted upon them. "Germany has despoiled her neigh bors of everything she could make use of or carry away. Germany has destroyed the shipping of all nations on the high seas, where there was no chance of rescue for their pas sengers and crews. "It is only Justice that restitution should be made and that those wronged peoples should be safe guarded for a time from the com petition of a nation—whose indus tries are intact and have even been fortified by machinery stolen from occupied territories. If these things are hardships, they are hardships which Germany has brought upon herself. Somebody must suffer for the consequences of the war. Is it to be Germany, or the peoples she has wronged ? "Not to do Justice to all concern ed would only leave the world open to fresh calamities. If the German people themselves, or any other na tion. are to he deterred from follow ing tho footsteps of Prussia; if man kind is to be lifted out of the belief that war for seliish ends is legitimate to any state; if the old era is to be left behind, and nations, as well as individuals, are to be brought be neath the reign of law, even if there is to be early reconciliation and ap peasement, it will be because those responsible for concluding the war have hud the courage to see that Jus tice is not deflected for the sake of a convenient peace. It is said that the German revolu- II" 1 ou^b * 1° niake a difference and that the German people are not re sponsible for the policy of the rule 13 whom they have thrown from power. The Allied and associated powers recognize and welcome the change. It represents a great hope for peace nd a new European order in the futu re. .r, Peo n'<* Supported War But it cannot affect the settle ment of the war itself. The German revolution was stayed until the Ger man armies had been defeated in the field and all hope of profiting by a war of conquest had vanished. Throughout the war, as before the war, the German peonle and their representatives supported the war, voted the credits, subscribed to the war loans, obeyed every order, how-! ev ® l ; savage, of their government. They shared the responsibility for the policy of the government, for at any moment, had they willed it. they could have reversed it. Had that policy succeeded, they would have acclaimed it with the same enthu siasm with which they welcomed the outbreak of the war. They cannot now pretend, having changed their, rulers after the war was lost, that it is justice that they should escape ?~ 1 ° nSequences of th eir deeds. The Allied and associated powers therefore believe that the peace they have proposed is fundamentally L^ e^ f 4 j ," s ! ice - The y are no >ew certain that it is a peace of right on the terms agreed. There can be no doubt as to the intentions of the Al lied and associated powers to base the settlement of Europe on the principle of freeing oppressed peoples and redrawing national boundaries - Ppwible, in accordance the W "1 of the peoples con cerned, while giving to each the facilities to live an independent na tional and economic life. "These intentions were made clear not only in President Wilson s ad *o Congress on January 8. 1918, but in 'the principles of set tlement enunciated in his subsequent addresses,' which was the agreed basis of the peace. A memorandum I on this point is attached to this let ter." "Accordingly, the Allied and asso ciated powers have provided for the reeonstitution of Poland as an inde pendent state. "Dan?ig has been constituted as a free city, so that the inhabitants will be autonomous, and do not come un der Polish rulo or form any part of the Polish state." \ Section missing. C lause \ I of the /Treaty says the Allied and associated powers have given careful consideration to the request of the German delegation l that Germany be admitted to the League of Nations as one of the con ditions of pea?e, but that the Allies are unable to accede to this request It is added that the Allied and as sociated powers believe if the Ger man people prove that they intend to fulfill the conditions of the peace, and that they have abandoned for ever those aggressive and estrang ing policies which caused the war, "and have now become a people with whom it is possible to live in neigh borly good fellowship," it will be pos sible at an early date to complete the League of Nations by the admission of Germany thereto. Clause VII refers to the denuncia tion by Germany of the blockade of the Allies. It declares that the block ade always has been a legal and recognized method of war. Clause VIII, rays: "In conclusion, the Allied and as sociated powers must make it clear that this letter and the memoran dum attached constitute their last word." i The clause adds that the Treaty creates the machinery for the peace ful adjustment of a'l international problems by discussion and consent and represents a sincere and delibe rate attempt to establish "that reign of law, based upon the consent of trie governed, and sustained by organiz ed opinion of mankind," which was the agreed basis of the peace.

THOUSANDS ILL FROM STARVATION Epidemic and Disorder Result from Bolshevism Riga New York, June 17. —Startling conditions of starvation, epidemic and the disorder resulting from Bol shevism at Riga, on the Baltic, as described by Captain Howell, head of the Baltic mission of the Amer ican Relief Administration, are re vealed in a cable from Mr. Hoover received yesterday by Edgar Rick ard, joint director of the American I Relief Administration. Captain Howell, In his report to ! the Paris office of the Administra tion, explained how American flour • provided practically tho only sub stantial food available at Riga and how the arrival of the American staff with supplies stimulated thc disheartened inhabitants to throw. ' off the Bolshevik rule, i The report of Captain Howell, glv ] en out in its entirety by Mr. Riekard, I follows: "One hundred and eighty-seven i thousand people here are receiving I one meal a day from eighty kitchens j established by local authorities un der direction of the American Relief Administration. America!} flour is baked into bread and distributed to citizens from ninety depots, but no fuel is available for private baking. Local committees are being organ ized to care for the sick and chil drn. It is estimated that between ten and fifteen thousand inhabitants are seriously ill from starvation, typhus and other causes and the majority of the people are greatly underfed . All are thin, pale-faced, listless. A great deal of dysentery is beginning to appear and causing anxiety, because an epidemic is feared with the coming of hot weather on account of the generally weakened condition of the populace. Medical experts of the American Re lief Administration are studying the situation and advising us what toods are most urgently needed. "Encouraged by the arrival of American food, the inhabitants are gradually reorganizing the city gov ernment, many volunteering for service with the anti-Bolshevists. Food and relief committees of citi zens are at present handling the s - uation. Most of the former civic leaders yvere murdered or executed by the Bolshevists. Before they abandoned the city, the Bolshevists opened the doors of one prison and drove the prisoners into the yard, where machine guns played upon them. The bodies of seven clergy men and a number of women were found when troops entered the city. At present Baltic troops arc hunting down Bolshevists with great cnci . manv executions occurring - There is a large radical e ement left in the population, and failure of the Authorities to provide food unW the citv can get on its feet again rtl lkM load them, with assistance of the Bolshevists still in hiding, tempt another uprising. "Under the Bolshevik reign, occu nants of handsome residences were moved into slums and hordes of ruf fians invaded richly-furnished apart ments Houses of the wealthy were ransacked and furniture, clothing and iewelry packed and shipped into the interior. To be well dressed in Riga to-day is dangerous. A grim local jest says, 'if a man is well dressed he is a Bolshevik, if in rags he Is harmless." Many to Hear Heck Tell of Turkey Considerable interest is being shown- in Harrisburg in the lecture on Wednesday of Lewis Heck, of Heckton, American Commissioner to Turkey, at the membership luncheon of the Harrishurg Chamber of Com merce in the Penn-Harris Hotel. Mr. Heck will discuss the condi tions in the Turkish Empire, in which he saw several years' of dip lomatic service. He served as Tr.-rk ish secretary under Ambassadors El kus and Morgenthau and during (he war, was commissioner of Amer ican affairs in Constantinople. His knowledge of conditions there makes him capable of speaking with au thority on conditions in the Otto man Empire ,on the characteristics of the Turks arrd of the underlying causes of their participation in the war. Mr. Heck's service was of such a heroic nature that he won repeated commendation from li-is superiors. Soldiers Now Study Business Management ' I Washington.
