Terms For Peace

Terms For Peace
 STOCKHOLM, Juno Is. - What may be considered to be the approxf. mate peace terms of the German government was outlined here today when the majority of the German O. cialists gave out their program for peace.
 A striking point in ths peace plans is: No indemnity for Belgium be- cause it would be aifficals 10 deter mine which of the belliserents wers responsible for damages on the var lous fronts and one.sided liability would merely mask an indemnity
 Other points in the plan arc the return of German colonies under the Socialist doctrine, no annexations. retention by Germany of Alsace and Lorraine because they are nine- tenths German"
 The plan is not considered purely socialistic, according to various au- thorities. Back of the entire scheme is seen the hand of the Kaiser take everything. but give nothing
 Several authorities have express doubts that the majority of the Ger man Socialists represent their rank and file.
