Archbishop Of Canterbury
Replies to German Appeal
London. Nov. 27.-(British Wire

London, Nov. 27.-(British Wire
less ce.)-The~ archbishop OF
Canterbury, in replying to message
from Professor Deissmann of Ber-
lin university, transmitted by Arch
bishop Soderblom of Upsala, implor-
ing merciful treatment at the peace
conference "in the name of Chris
tianity," says:
Professor Deissmann's state
ment as TO the present situation is
not one which can accept as cor
rect. He speaks of the European
situation as though all that is needed
on the part of Christian circles in
the belligerent nations is mutual
forgiveness and Cancellation in or
der to fight in unison against the ter
rible consequences of the war, and
to serve the moral improvements of
the nations and of mankind
Free from Hatred.
The archbishop calls attention to
the fact that on September %, 1915,
he sent letter to Professor Deiss-
mann, pointing out these essential
matters, but received no reply, ex-
cept a verbal acknowledgment. and
continues:
ave have fought without hatred,
and as far as possible without pas
sion, and now that victory crowns
the cause for which we fought we
desire to be equally free from hatred
and passion in the course we follow
as victors.

ENGLISH MAY Be
TONGUE USED At
PEACE PARLEYS
French, Customary Medium Of
Diplomacy, May Be Dis
Carded for Conven-

Paris, Nov. 27-The question Of
conducting the proceedings of the
peace congress in English is being
discussed with some prospect that
this innovation will be brought
about. If it is, it will be the first
great international congress with
English as the official language. as
French has long been recognized as
the medium OF diplomacy.
For practical reasons, it is said.
the use of the English language
would be more convenient to larger
number of the delegates than
French, for the sessions Of
the inter-allied conference all
but two of the delegates
spoke English, whereas a consider
able number did not speak French,
and were unable to understand the
proceedings when French was used.

The attitude of the majority ,ial-

There is no need, he says, for the

the drafting of elections lists. Every
soldier has military pass, upon the
presentation of which he would be

stamped to prevent repeating. A

agony and cruelty, was let loose in
Europe. Nor can we possibly ignore
the savagery which the German high
command displayed in carrying on
the war. Outrages in Belgium in
the early months and, indeed ever
since; the character of the devasta-
ton wrought lin France, including
the inhuman deportation of limo
cent civilians; the submarine war
fare against passenger ships, like the
Lusitania, and the rejoicings which
cruelties exercised on defenseless
prisoners down to the very end, in
GLIDING even the last few weeks
all these things compel the author
tiles of the allied powers to take
security against repetition of such
a crime.
Peace of Justice Sought.
"The position would be different
had there been ON the part of Chris
tian circles in Germany any public
protest against these gross wrongs
or any reputation of their .per-
petrators.
"The peace we hope to achieve
must be a peace, not of hate or re-
venge, the fruits of which might
be further and even more terrible
strife. We wish by every means
to avert that possibility. But right
eousness must be indicated, even
though vindication involves stern
ness.
There is, however, as I need
hardly say, no wish on the part Of
the allied nations to crush or des-
troy the peoples of Germany. Evil
dence to the contrary is amply abun-
dant."
