Speaking OF the powers to be

He said the effect should be to
make the reichstag the peoples

cision of most important questions
for the nation, namely of peace and
war"
That means peaceful develop
ment OF the empire and Its relations
with other powers" he continued
pies right. the imperial government
is willing to lend a hand when a
league of nations has taken practical
form. When such league puts an
end to all secret separate treaties
am confident that all agreements
can be amplified in this sense"
The chancellor said the German
nation long has possessed political
rights which its neighbors envied.
He spoke In praise of the municipal
and reichstag elections and said that
although the German people had not
made use of its power in dealing
with vital questions the develop
ment occurred at the end OF Sep
tember had changed everything.
Therein lies the guarantee of the
continuance and growth OF the new

Announcement was made by the

and his colleagues were agreed as to
methods and purposes, he added:
"Our aim is the political authority

guiding star OF my collaborators and
myself"
The chancellor said that individual
members OF the government at first
had different standpoints hut now

THE German people has long been
In the saddle" he said. Now It is to

"Our first and last thought" the
chancellor continued, 'is for the
brave men who are defending them
selves against superior forces and
whom we must defend against un-
Just charges No one must think he
can attack our army without also
attacking the honor of our people.
Trusts In Army.
The lot OF our soldiers today Is
terribly hard. They fight with
anxiety for the homeland and with
their minds fixed on peace, and they
hold their ground.
I'VE trust and thank them. We
cry to them: The homeland will not
abandon you. what you want, what
Il can give in men, material and
food. that you shall have.
The extraordinary war time meas
ures, the chancellor explained, could
not yet be dispensed with. but they
could be carried out only by the
chancellor who would be responsible
to the reichstag for their applica-
tons.

announced recently now have been

not only the censorship, the right
of public meeting and restrictions
