the United States and former member,
Of the council of the empire, suggests
as means of exit for Russia from her

aims OF the war--thc con.ricte ruin OF
The cnemy--have become hopeless, he
declared. and the WAT promises to de-
velop into SLOW process of more or

"RuSSa is on the edge OF a pre-

Those conditions arc becoming

The enemy as well as the allies are
informed of that fact. We are running
the risk OF being abandoned by the
allies or left TO the necessity of making
IA shameful peace ii we defer following

Baron Roscn acknow wledgcs that RUS
sia is late with such diplomatic sug-
sestion, which. in his opinion, should
haze followed President Wilson's an
peal to tho belliGerent countries. At
that time, however. the governing
classes of all the countries were so
intent upon the idea of the complete
ruin OF the enemy. he comments, that .
no ono government could assert It's
readiness TO solve the problem of the
war by conferences.

Thus" he added. IAN unfortunate
situation WAS created. an exit from
