Chasouowitch says: MANY Socialists
acknowledge that the party had been
nserably trickcd into supporting the
war at the outset. Government ascnts
representing that 1t was merely Il de-
fensivc fight against Russia. when Herr
Haase announced IN the Reichstag on
August that the Socialists had de-
cided to support tho war credits they
we're unaware thai. Germany had al
ready sent an ultimatum to Belgium
The fact that the Socialist newspapers
do not oppose the war IN due to the
certainty Of merciless punishment. But"
he added. hundreds OF thousands Of
Socialists hold that the war is the great
est infamy in human history. German
workmen are ardently in favor of
peace"
Nevertheless. Mr.. Chasonowitch adds,
only u minority of the Socialists wish
the war stopped as unholy and criminal.
The majority Is partly Influenced 10y

Mr.. Chasonowitch hesitates to prophesv
