Berlin.-When the Imperial Chan
cellor, DR.. Won Bethmann Hollweg,
arose to deliver his pronouncement OF
attitude of Germany with respect to
the war, the Reichstag presented the
aspect of former great days. All the
members were present and the gal
leries were crowded. Among the for
eign diplomats were the American
ambassador, James w. Gerard; the
Argentine minister, Dr. Luis Molina;
the Dutch minister, Baron Gevers,
and the Greek minister, N. G. Theo-
toky. A hush of expectancy was
upon the house when the chancellor
began, but after his Introductory
words be was interrupted by an out
burst of applause.
The chancellor reviewed the mill
tary situation and showed that thru
out all the fighting Germany's prog
ress had been steady and certain.
He declared that Germany was at
war only to preserve her existence
and to hold back her enemies from
the German frontiers.
Germany had been threatened, he
said, with annihilation; with parti-
ton of her realm; with destruction
of her essential, political and econom-
ic forces-and the answer to any sug
gestions of peace on the basis of de-
struction of Prussian military power
was the German sword
Germany had no aggressive aims
against the American continent, and
she was not fighting for new terri
tory.
The new Europe which would arise
out of the war, he said, cannot re-
semble the past Whatever it might
he, it must be for the nations that
inhabit it-a land of peaceful labor.
THE peace which shall end this
war shall be a lasting peace the
chancellor said. 1T must not bear
the germ of new wars, but must pro-
vide for all peaceful arrangement of
European questions"

 NEW YORK, April 27. No one familiar with the course of Irish af- fairs since the outbreak of the war was surprised at the news of the in- surrection now in progress, according to a statement issued today byl John D. Moore, national secretary of the Friends of Irish Freedom.
 "The Irish rebellion was the act of brave and patriotic men who are neither firebrands nor hotheads." said MT Moore. Now that MT. Asquith has acknowledged that it has spread all over Ireland, t is clear that the upris- ing has only one meaning, and that is that Ireland is. as always, resolved to be free and independent.
 Convinced that England's necessi- ties, ever more pressing, would soon drag them into the war, thousands oi gallant Irishmen have revolted because | they prefer to die fighting against l England for Ireland than fighting fol | England in the trenches in Flanders If the reOellion succeeds, it's leader, will rank with the worlds great men If it fails, the Irish will love them a. | they love Robert Emmett. The revol does not look like failure now
 Sudden and dramatic as the upris ing has been, it could surprise nobod, who has followed the course of Irisl affairs since the outbreak of the wal Moreover, it completely shatters tn carefully constructed myth that tn mere passage of 9 mock home rule bi lad transformed Ireland into an inte gral part of the British empire
