SPECIAL 70 The washington HEald
London. April 4-In connection with
comment on the latest declaration Of the
Russian government, the Berlin Vor-
waerts, according TO an Amsterdam dis
patch to the Daily Chronicle, says:
THE German government must tell the
people the whole truth, and that is. that
one cannot dictate terms to hostile
world"
The vorwaerts says on the subject of
peace:
in the honds OF the liberated Russian
peace and war. 1t depends upon them
whether in a reasonable time wisdom
and justice will triumph over the loosen
ed spirit of destruction or whether a
long misery OF war lies before US. All
the world, therefore, will seek to read
its fate in the new declaration.
Matters between the central powers
and Russia on the basis announced in
the Russian program can be settled with
out further drop Of blood being shed.
Neither Germany nor Austria-Hungary
wishes to humble Russia nor keep a bit
OF her territory. In Germany, as in
Austria-Hungary, we wish for peace,
and the provincial governments state
ment shows that the same feeling in
Russia is very great
ITO meet that feeling is the duty OF
the German government, which must
say that Count Czernin's proposal is its
proposal. too, and that IL has no inten-
ton to put forward at the suggested
conference demands which only a de-
feated opponent could accept"
