.U[T|MATUM SERVED
|. ON GERMAN RULERS
Reichstag Majority to Take
Measures if Government
Doesn't Mend Ways.
MUST ACT IN FOUR WEEKS

By the Associated Press
COPENHAGEN. August 31-A warn
ing that unless the German govern
ment heeds demands of the reichstag
for reforms the majority parties will
take measures was given before the
reichstag main committee Wednesday.
Resolutions of the majority, introduced
by DR.. Karl Heine, socialist, demanded
for the fourth or fifth time abolition
of the political censorship and limita-
tion of the military censorship to facts
connected with the conduct of the war
and criticism thereof. This was held
to be necessary because it is notorious
that the military authorities exercise
q sweeping political censorship of the
German press on the pretense that pub
iications Of a political nature may af-
fect the military spirit of the people
Dr.. Hefne gave the government four
weeks until the assembling of the
reichstag to mend its ways Other
wise; he said, the reichstag majority
government has received some half
dozen earlier warnings of a similar
nature, and its response in the present
instance will not be an unfair test of
the inhuence of the present majority
in the reichstag.
Speeches and pronouncements of En-
peror William were criticised in the de-
bate on the censorship Matthias Erz-
berger, centrist leader, and DIR. Heine
caiieo attention to the effect caused by
the emperor's impulsive statements, which
sometimes run counter to the ostensible
policy OF the government. Although not
mentioned in the censored accounts Of
the committees proceedings the emperor's
critics probably had particularly in mind
his recent utterances in regard to Eng
land. which he pointed out as Germanyss
arch enemy which must be defeated at
any cost
DR.: Heine appears to have demanded
freedom Tor the press to discuss such
utterances Of the emperor. Herr Err
berger asked whether Chancellor Mich
aelis assumed responsibility for what was
said by the emperor. Foreign Secretary
Won kuehlmann replied that the repre-
sentative at great headquarters Of the
foreign offce was informed concerning
these speeches and that the Chancellor
assumed responsibility
As had been expected, the misleading
-denials" by the foreign Office of Premier
kerensky's statement that a separate
peace offer had been made recently TO
Russia. and of the message said by former
AMBASSADOR Gerard to have been sent by
emperor william to President Wilson at
the outbreak OF the war. were brought up
for criticism Herr Erzberger said the
official communications were coming into
wide discredit abroad. owing to the many
sef-eyident contradictions In them.

While the second Italian army is keep

Austrians in the direction of Tolmino.
the third Italian army is maintaining a
stexdy pressure along the Carso front

success Is difiicult to overestimate. as
the movement constitutes the first

tude OF the success in the north Is what

every hand there Is evidence of battles
