In the republican counties where

support to Lenroot this year. One
of the reasons for decreases in the
Davies vote, it was believed, was thai
in German counties, normally demo
cratic, voters switched to Berger and
in some cases to Lenroot.
The approximate vote indicated by
returns received up to tonight give
Lenroot, $4,000; Davies, $4,000, anc

Socialist Deputy in ReIChStag
Declares Laboring People
Are Greatest Sufferers in :
Present War.

New York,~April 3.-The German
laboring class is for peace because it
has suffered more from the war than
any other section of the German
population.
This statement was made on Feb
ruary p in the Reichstag by Deputy
Herzfeld, independent socialist, dur
ing the discussion OF a socialist mo-
ton requesting the Reichstag exer-
else its right and demand the release
from imprisonment during the Reich
stag session of Deputy Wilhelm Ditt-
mann, a socialist.
Deputy Dittmann was arrested for
his activities in connection with the
recent strike in Berlin and other parts
of Germany and sentenced to several
years Imprisonment.
Despair of Peace.
The January strike, Deputy Herr
field declared, was caused by the
despair of the workingmen that there
would be no early peace, the laboring
class having gained the impression
from. the Brest-Litovsk negotiations
that the annexationists controlled the
governments policies. During the
strike, he added, the newspapers oi
the working class had been gagged
and representatives of the working,
men had been thrown into prison
whenever they were not|sent to the
trenches.
Deputy Herzfeld was frequently
called to order by the vice president
DR.. Paasche, who at the outset de.
c1ared he could not peynit discussion
of the political reasons for the arrest
Of Deputy Dittmann.
The Reichstag finally decided that
it had no right to interfere in the
Dittmann affair and the socialist mo-
ton was defeated over the votes oi
the socialists. Danes and Poles.

Recently we were almost on the

foreign secretary, when the wind
suddenly veered around, and, as we
knew with certainty, the entente de-

country justified the hope that the
monarchy would soon be defenseless."

Count Czernin, 81 have striven only
after one aim, namely, to obtain an
honorable peace to the monarchy and
to create a situation which will secure
to Austria Hungary its future free de-

thing possible to ensure that this ter
rible war will be the last one for time

differently"
France Makes Offer.
Count Czernin, declared that Pre-
mier Clemenceau of France had asked
Austria Hungary on what basis it
would negotiate peace, according to
dispatch from The Hague to the Daily
Mail.
Austria replied that the only OBJ
stacle to peace with France was Al
sace-Lorraine and Premier Clemen.
ceau said that it was impossible to
negotiate on that basis.
"Some time before the western Of
fensive began" Count Czernin said,
Premier Clemenceau addressed to me
an inquiry whether and upon what
basis | was prepared to negotiate. In
agreement with Berlin, Immediately
replied that / was prepared to nego-
tiate and thai as far as France was
concerned the only obstacle I could
see in the way of peace was the
French desire for Alsace-Lorraine.
The reply from Paris was that it was
impossible to negotiate on this basis.
Thereupon there was no choice left.
