GERMAN APPEALS
FOR U. S. AID IN
PRESENT CRISIS
All Are Willing to Share
Blame for War, Says Repa-
triate.
(By Associated 2ress)

MUNICH, Dec. 20-General Count
Max Montgelas, who was recalled from
Switzerland to enter the Bavarian cab
met on November 81 and who has
been referred to by French newspa-
pers as the second Lichnowsky," be-
cause Of his revelations of conditions
prevailing in Germany early in the
war, has published an open letter to
President Wilson. 1t follows:
'In these decisive weeks the eyes
of the world are upon you. Above all,
the eyes of the German people in the
present difficult crisis, are watching
you. We do not beg, we do not want
forgiveness, but want justice. We do
not say pharisaically that one of us
is guiltier than the other. We do not
separate ourselves in these days Of
suffering from any of our countrymen,
high or low. We want to bear In
common a portion of the blame devolv-
ing in this world catastrophe.
Each of us who knows your coun-
try knows we'll that proud conscious
American nation beneath the Star
Spangled Banner and honors 1t. We
disdain to blame others, but we expect.
Mr.. President, that you Will despite
all opposition, achieve success with
the principles you laid down. We are
building upon the words you spoke at
Washington's grave, when you said
that every arbitrary power. regardless
of what side it appears upon. must be
destroyed or condemned to impotency.
We are building upon the word Of i'm
partial justice. which knows no diff
ference as to those to be judged. We
are confident that you want to create
a league of equality between nations,
in which each people may freely
breathe and work and prosper spirit
ually.
"You know better than ! what the
German spirit has given your great
people. You know the world can do
without this spirit less than ever af-
ter it has been freed from the bonds
of militarism. If our expectations are
deceived, we shall not cease fighting
on for the attainments of better days.
Your message is hopeful. but we must
be afraid that not all the allies will
listen to your words. You have power
and you have duty to perform"

ADVOCATES PRIVATE
SHIPPING CONTROL
(By Associated Press)

DETROIT, Dec. 20.-Bainbridg Col
by of the United States shipping
board, in an address here last night
advocated the placing of the millions
Of tons of shipping built by the gov
ernment as war emergency measure
into the hands Of private concerns for
operation. either through lease or pur-
chase. The government, he said,
should absorb the initial cost of re-
establishing Americas merchant mar
inc and this would be justified by the
large benefits flowing to the nation S
trade.
"My personal view," Mr. Colby said.
"is against public operation. Public
administrative body could hardly un-
dertake the business of shop manage
ment on the unprecedented scale nee
essary for our large and growing ma
tional enterprise.
by the end of the present year we
will have total of about 100000
tons of shipping with more than 12,-
100000 more tons either on the ways
or under contract.
II do not urge that the United States
enter into scramble for marts; there
is enough trade for every nation. but
America should not be content to
continue in the ignominious position
she occupied before the war when
her ships only carried eight and two
thirds percent of the worlds COM
merce."

ENGLISH SHOW
PLEASURE OVER
WILSON'S VISIT
Must Come in Personal Con-
tact With Common People
Urges Press.
fBy Associated Press.)

LONDON, Dec 20.-Newspapers
here make extended comments on the
impending visit of President Wilson
to England. The Daily News express
ses profound satisfaction over Mr..
Wilson's plan and adds:
Every faction of the nation is eager
for an opportunity to display it's graft
unfaltering idealism and steadfastness
of purpose"
The newspaper, approving Of King
George remaining in London to honor
President Wilson hopes, nevertheless,
that the ceremonial aspect of the
visit will be kept to the narrowest
limits consistent with its Importance,
SO that nothing may stand in Mr.. Will
sons way, preventing his coming in
personal contact with the people rath-
er than the rulers. 1t continues:
while the visit will give the people
IN opportunity to range themselves
publicly on his side, it will also give
the President an opportunity of which
he will hardly fail to avail himself Of
shortening the preliminaries which are
occupying time that might be profit
ably devoted to actual conference
with the allies. These preliminaries
have not been formally begun"
Want Swift Decision.
The paper contends that it is ne
cessary to press forward to the nego-
tiations and name conditions of peace
for Germany and determine the future
of Russia.
only swift decisions by the allies"
1t says, will enable Germany to re-
sumo something like her normal indus
trial life and secure the survival of a
government capable of executing the
conditions of peace. Delay means an
archy and anarchy in Germany is
fraught with greater pcrils for the
world than anarchy in Russia. The
condition of Russia is a matter upon
which Mr.. Wilson's voice can carry
greater weight than any other He
has no material considerations to IN
fluence him and no question of the
bondholder will affect his judgment.
He presumably has full knowledge of
the facts which the people Of this
country have not, and a straightfor-
ward declaration from him that the
allies are taking the only course open
to them would dispel misgivings
which Viscount Miners statement
yesterday left unallayed"
Assured Of Welcome.
President Wilson will be assured
of a great popular welcome to Eng
land" says the Chronicle 1T is per-
fectly certain, if the future peace is to
be really founded on a permanent ba-
sis, there must be closest co-opera-
ton between the two great English
speaking powers. This will be needed
to safeguard and develop the peace
that is arranged.
"The initial requisites exist-good
will and common purpose-but every
opportunity must be taken to strength
en- them by mutual knowledge and mu-
tual understanding If full harvest is
to be reaped."
Asserting that Mr.. Wilson has done
much to promote harmony between
England and America, the newspaper
says: I'VE do not wish to prejudice
his position by calling him a great
Englishman, but that is, in fact, how
millions of Englishmen regard him.
