The chancellor was cheered as he
rose to make his promised reply to
the socialist Interpolation on the ques
again as he frankly stated the gov
ernment's position. He had just re-
turned from a conference with EN-.
peror William at army headquarters.
AS long as in tho countries of our
enemies the guilt and ignorance Of
statesmen are entangled with confu-
sion OF public opinion, said the chan.
cellor. 1T would be folly for Germany
to make peace proposals which would
not shorten but lengthen the duration
Of the war. First the masks must be
torn from their faces.
AT present they speak Of war Of
humiliation against us. We have to
reckon with this fact Theoretical ar
guments for peace or propositions will
not advance us, will not bring the end
nearer.
III our enemies make peace proposi

be ready to discuss them.
The war can be terminated only
by peace which gives human certi
tude that it will not return. We all
agree about that. There is and there
will always be the root of our
strength"
