COUNTRY STILL DETERMINED
Tageblatt, in Review Of Third Year
OF War, Hopes Common Sense
Soon May Assert Itself Among AL
lies, and Peace Bo Established.
(By Associated Press. !

BERLIN. Sunday. July 2s tvia Lon
don. July 30).-1n it's review Of the
third year OF the world war, the Tage-
blatt points out that the armies of
Germany and her allies have con-
quered more than 100000 square kilo-
meters OF entente territory. and as
serts that the military strength OF
the central powers. instead of dccreas-
ing. has Increased, whne that of
France has visibly diminished. The
newspaper says the German people
has plainly announced it's readiness for
peace. and expresses tho hope that
common sense and a sincere desire for
the cessation of hostilities will asssr>
themselves in the ranks Of Germany's
adversaries. Tho Tageblatt says:
The end OF the third year OF tho
war finds the issue in the cast and in
the west undecided. For the moment,
interest in the military operations ID
focused upon Flanders and Galicia.
Tho past year. however. has been
fruitful of many instructive results.
Above all. it may be asserted that the
entente no longer has the disposal of
unlimited production and supplies OF
ammunition, as was the case during
the Somme battle. This cessation OF
munition Reinforcement has had a
noticeable effect on the western front
And, whereas the material resources
OF our opponents have not increased
and the strength of France has become
visibly diminished. we still arc unim-
paired in our strength. and more
strongly fortified than ever before
He who Is willing to be guided
solely by the facts. and will not permit
himself to be deceived by illusions,
must admit that the ambition of our
foes to crush us is to-day less Justified
than at any other period, and because
this is SO, we may be permitted to
express the hope that common sense
and a sincere desire for peace may
finally assert Themselves in the ranks
of our opponents.
The German people, through It's &C.
credited representatives. has plainly
announced TO the world at large It's
readiness for peace. We hope this e1-
preston will be appreciated in its full
Importance on the other side.
The following offers an approxi.
mate picture OF the area OF occupied
territory which now is held by tho
military forces OF the central powers,
measured IN square kilometers:
Belgium, $3.50: France. 1920;
Russia. 2s0.4eo: Roumania, 100, 1000:
Serbia. s5.ss7; Montenegro. 1880;
Albania, 20,oo0-totaI, 54s,7s7.
This total is opposed by 500 square
kilometers OF land held by the French,
and the Austro- Hungarian territory in
Russian possession. measuring $500
square ki!ometers. The latter figure
no longer holds good. 1t has been
diminished by fully so per cent. and
is hkely to fall away entirely in the
near future"

| Hungarian Foreign Minister. which are
| regarded here as obviously made In
collision, dominate the news columns
of the morning papers. They are gen.

credence in the desire for peace by

talk. unless accompanied by IN under
taking TO evacuatc and restore con-
quered territories, is declared merely
to be aimed at delaying Americas
preparations for war.
Herr Michaelis's accusations against
France are dismissed by some COM
mentators as best left for refutation
by French allies. but discussed by
others, one OF which says tho story is
too thin even for the Germans TO be-
lieve. The Daily News. however, main
tains that. although the Chancellors
statements are valueless as evidence
they cannot be left Unanswered, and
insists that statement of war aims
to be formulated at the coming con-
ference of allies. must constitute an ex-
plicit disavowal Of all thought OF con-
quest for conouest's sake. The paper
denounces the Ignorance or the folly

1t is in the power Of the allies to
render the weapon innocuous. even turn

The Chronicle proclaims It's belief
that 1t would be unwise for the allies
to deprive Germany Of genuine Cor

Chancellor talks Of vast territorial
