GERMANS REFUSE
TO PREDICT PEACE
Believed Russian Maximalists
May Be Forced to Follow
Kerensky Plans.
POLICIES NOT APPROVED

By the Associated Press.
COPENHAGEN, November 1o.-ine
first German newspapers containing

conclusions or to predict speedy peaee

the Maximalists may be -compeileo Wy
the force of circumstances to 1ollo"
much the same policy as the kerensky
regime as soon as they find that a non
annexation peace is not to be attaiheo
early by proclaiming their readiness TO
conclude such a peace.
Several newspapers alluoe 70 eho Ha~is
that the declared policy of the Maxi
malfsts Is for general peace, not
separate one, and this on the basls OIL
absolutely no annexatlons. II IS ss

cialists. who are against bolsheviki
methods for their own land. cannot
advocate them for Russia They are IN
accord with the bolsheviki. however. IN
rejecting all annexations The Vor-
waerts then develops the remarkable
thesis that good might emerge from
the situation IL the bolsheviki govern

tegrtty of Russian territory and CEN
trial powers refusing annexations,
should unite on the basis of renuncla-
ton of Poland and other disputed areas,
leaving the people to settle their own
destiny. -
sight would be unique in history, and
that 1t depends on two great questions:
Whether the bolsheviki remain in
power, and whether the German social
lists are strong enough to impose this
desire upon the government.
Disturbed by Triumph.
The vorwaerts evidently is disturbed
at the triumph of a party whose pro-
gram is opposed by German socialists:
It criticises the bolshevid dogma OF
such dictatorship is exercised by a
small minority of Russian socialists.
Hans Worst, an expert on RUSSIAN az
fairs. says In the Tageblatt that there
is now only one party in Russia, the
bourgeois, which is strong enough to
challenge the mastery Of the bolshevikt,
and that such a reaction could be sue
cessful only If the military leaders of
the movement were to have enough
authority over their armies to lead
them againsgt the capital. Herr Worst
-Agards this as highly doubtful He
