Field Marshal Won Hindenburg's posi-
ton was male plain at a meeting of
the Independent committee for German
peace terms last Saturday when.
through a personal representative, he
requested the committee to abstain
from agitation for a sharper submarine

announced his views through a letter
which was read at big public meet
ing at Magdeburg yesterday by Ma
tional Liberal Leader Schiller. The let
ter said in part:
1.-The hopes of our enemies based on
extraordinary simultaneous exertions
on all fronts can only be frustrated
through mighty efforts on our part. we
will accomplish this if the German peo-
pie stand united behind us, give US
their confidence and do not demoraiize
the army by controversies over the ex-

the program on certain questions Is
