AMERICA UNDECEIVED
AS TO GERMAN TURMOIL

WASHINGTON, July 10.
Germany's present political upheaval is
only a hopeful sign of a later explosion, in
the view OF officials here today.
From what they can learn from the press
and meager official reports from neutral
countries they think Germany as a whole
will stand steadfastly with the Kaiser for
the time being. The demand for a state
ment of peace terms-without annexations
and indemnites-is viewed as a sign, how
ever OF an underlying discomfort with
things as they are, which will grow louder
and more insistent as economic and military
pressure intensihes.
The Russian offensive has been a blow
to Germany. The entrance of America into
the war while scoffed at by the German
press, is nevertheless thoughtfully consid-
cred by Germany's students and leaders
As for new peace terms, the attitude OF
the United States is as II has been-no
peace until the seas are safe and Germany
so crushed as to make her impotent for fur
ther frightfulness. A peace on Germany's
own terms, as always hitherto offered. will
be promptly spurned, though II the terms
are more liberal than in the past they will
tend to bring tho two sides nearer a COM
mon basis of negotiation.
Germany is unbeaten. and will remain so
for several years, military experts say.
America might as we'll realize that first as
last, they say, and might as well know, too,
that despite the present mutterings the
German autocracy is able to blum its pop
ulace into continuing the war long time.
The real explosion is not yet at hand, but
Sthese events are straws showing the way
the wind blows" said one OF the most prom
inent Government heads today.
The outspoken hostility of certain sec
tions of the German press against the I'm
nerial Chancellor Won Bethmann- Hollweg,
IL strikingly shown in a quotation from
the Berllner Tageblatt reaching the State
Denartment today, which was published on
the ave Of Hollweg's difficulties in the
Reichstag. Said that newspaper:
A subject that will also be discussed
is the question whether the Chancellor

than he has said heretofore, then a

time has proved, not resulted In the con-

means that have been applied to obtain
this end have completely failed. Or is II

we ought to take great care in the

Senator Smith, South Carolina, continued
the attack He said he abhorred the man
whose patriotism was measured by dollars
and who revered gold as his God, but there
was a distinction between such characters
and the man who used his money as a
divine power for the advancement Of civil
