the other day that Freiherr Won Hert-

also a Catholic, has broken with Err
berger and no longer receives him.
This little announcement covers

Erzberger head of the Centrum, made,
under the regime of Bethman Holl-

Dutch journalist, an offer to the allies
which was equivalent to peace at any
price. It is notable that at the injunc-
