share by the people in the conduct OF
imperial affairs. was predicted by the
chancellor. Won Bethmann- -Hollweg. in
speech before the Prussian diet, ac-
cording to a Berlin dispatch to Reu-
ter's by way Of Amsterdam. The
chancellor opened his address by pro-
testing against criticism leveled at the
reichstag and by the upper house OF
the diet. Admitting that every parlia-
ment in Germany is entitled to dis
cuss imperial policies. he reiterated
previous assurances that the war must
lead to a political organization and the
governments would. after the close OF
hostilities propose q reform OF the
Prussian franchise.

I'VE shall be confronted with the most
gigantic tasks that ever confronted

the entire people will have to work to
solve them. A strong foreign policy
will be necessary for we shall be sur
rounded by enemies whom we shall
not meet with loud words. but with
the internal strength of the nation.
We can only pursue such a policy If

that the maintenance of patriotism

House resolves to request the royal
state government to present bill by
which membership in the house of
lords will be changed in such a way
that while retaining the royal privilege
of appointment. but abolishing all
privileges of families and dignitaries
which now exist in relation to mem
bership in the house Of lords, repre-

granted to all municipalities and to
