its willingness to discuss peace
terms now.
Germany Is now in a position to
demand better terms for peace than
she Is likely to be at any future
time, it IS explained, with Belgium

The aggressions OF the Russians
on her eastern frontier and the eyi-

check their progress is said to have
persuaded Germany that now is the
time to negotiate for peace.
