GERMANY'S PEACE TERMS
The Fatherland. pro.German Weekly
Published in New TOrk Says:


Germany is democracy. In the
event of victory, the peace-terms
will be dictated by the Reichstag.
The Germans will not easily give up
what they have won with their blood.
The Germans have no desire Of crush
ing any other people, but they intend
to fortify themselves so that the his
tory of 1914 can neevr repeat itself.
Germany has no desire to keep all Of
Belgium or to retain more than a
fortress or so on French soil. But to
avoid maritime strangulation in the
future she will insist upon Antwerp
and Calais. She will take the Ger
man provinces of Russia, but may
be ready to surrender her Polish
provinces to new independent Po-
land. She will take the Congo, NADIA
gascar, Morocco; she will extend her
protectorate over Mesopotamia and
cooperate with Turkey in the commei
cial redemption OF Asia. She may not
insist upon her lost island in the
Pacific, but she will insist upon the
freedom Of the seas on all oceans
and the open door on all continents.
In case of an overwhelming victory,
she will return Gibraltar to Spain
and give freedom to Ireland as well
as Finland. But even if her victory
should not be so decided, even II
demands should he still more mod
crate than outlined here. the result
of the present conflict will probably
he n Federation of Central Europe,
consisting of free and independent
States. bound together merely by a
customs union and certain military
conventions for mutual defence. This
Federation will embrace all Ger
manic States; it will be closely allied
however, with Turkey, and prohahly
Italy. These may not be the peace
terms of the German cabinet. They
are peace-terms of the German Pe"-
pie. 80: I
