PEACE INDICATIONS.
Socialist Member of German Reich
stag Defends President Wilson.

Berlin, May 31.-In the reichstag
yesterday Gustave Noske, socialist,
protested against the speech of Herr
Hirsch. national liberal, of Essen,
which, he declared. was calculated
to prevent the neutral powers from
mediating in behalf of peace.
Herr Noske, especially objected to
Herr Hirsch's "scolding tone" toward
President Wilson. He added
There is no disposition among
the German people to hazard the
lives of further hundreds of thous-
ands for fantastic plans of conquest.
The people at the front and at home
want no more bloodshed. The mass
es reject the thought Of continuing
the war until people are bled white.
That would be a crime. Humanity
needs permanent understandings
Berlin. May 31,--"The time has
come for public opinion to occupy it.
self with the subject of peace says
George Bernhard. the famous Ger
man publicist, in an article in the
Vossische Zeitung.
DR.. Bernhard expressed doubt
that President Wilson will take any
active steps toward mediation, but
he seems to think that the war is
naturally drawing towards its close
and that the people of the allied ma
tions are fully as DESTROYS for peace
as the German public.
Hamburg, May 3l.--Albert Bal
lin, war manager Of the German rail-
roads and director of the Hamburg
American Steamship Company, char
acterized the war as the greatest,
bloodiest and most idiotic war of all
times" in an address delivered yes
