Neither directly nor indirectly
have our enemies offered us peace.
But we do not want them to offer 1t to
us; we want them to ask 1t of us. We
do not want to submit to their con-
ditions; we want to impose ours on
them. We do not want a peace which
would leave Imperial Germany with
the power to recommence the war and
keep Europe eternally menaced. We
want peace which receives from re-

sured to US, SO long as our enemies
will not recognize themselves as van
pushed. We will not cease to fight"
