Want to End War Under Circumstances Which Will Bring Friendship With NeighbOring Nations

Berlin, June 28.-(yia London. l-Thc board of directors or managing com- mittee of the social democratic party In Germany has published In the vor- waerts n full-page appeal for peace.
 This interesting document calls for m end to the war under circumstances which will make possible friendships with neishboring nations and sets forth most clearly the opposition of the party to territorial conquest and an- ncxation. The people want peace. 1t declares, and the government is called upon, in the name of humanity. to make known its readiness to enter peace negotiations.
 The appeal Is published under the head ing, Social Democracy and Peace.' It begins with a reference to the fact that the socialists foresaw the war and worked vainly for an international un- derstanding, but when war did come they placed themselves at the disposal of the Fatherland. It refers to the declaration of the party made in the Reichstag Au- gust 4, 1914, which said:
 We demand as soon as safety has been secured and our opponents are inclined to peace that the war be brought to al
