SATISFACTION WITH
PREMIER DOUBTFUL

luF hbSOcAnteu Ffeah.t
COPENHAGEN, Nov. Satisfac-
ton of the liberal elements of the
German population and press with
the new administration in Germany
seems mixed and half way. II is
based rather on the assumption that
Count Won Hertling the imperial
chancellor, is entering office as the
representative of the majority of
parliament than upon Won Hertling's
personality, and he evidently will last
only so long as he conducts his ad-
ministration as the representative
of the majority party.
Count Won Hertling, notwithstand
ing his age and previous record, has
shown plability and elasticity toward
the demands of the majority party
which were scarcely expected, and
the success of the Won Hertling era
will depend largely on the ability of
the reichstag majority to hold to-
gether and agree on a policy which
Won Hertling will be willing and
able to represent
The pan-German movement has an
swered the appointment of Won
Hertling with a straight declaration
of war, based on his known and sus-
pected attitude on peace terms and
the BELIEF that he is inclined to make
peace on a basis which will permit
later a reapproachment with the
western powers Count Won Hert.
ling's views on Belgium, however,
are not those which the entente pow
ers are considered likely to accept.
They wer phrased to appear that
Belgium's anti-Belgium policy must
be altered in favor of Germany,
presumably by some checks incon-
sistent with its full independence.
The reichstag probably will meet
November 20 to hear Count Won
Hertling outline his policy.
