Illustrate such n hope or even to delay
It's realisation considerably.
The political point in President WILL
sons reply In settled, as Germany's
reply undoubtedly will establish, by
the notifications which are being made
in the constitution.
'rn the armistice negotiations" he
continued, both sides should speak.
That grows out OF the very idea OF
negotiations. Hence Germany's pro-
posal OF a commission.
I'VE can be fully convinced that Ger.
many will be In q position to accept
the Presidents demands regarding tbs
illumination OF the war. DO not
believe that In his demands generally
no goes beyond what Germany intends,
especially as regards the moment the
war may be considered to be terminated.
II believe that in her exchange of
views with President Wilson Germany
will give the explanations necessary 20
avoid the superfiuous hardships OF war.
II is clearly understood that Germany
will insist that no conditions be Inn
posed during the preliminary phase of
the negotiations which are incompatible
with her dignity"
Predicts q "Justv Peace,
Baron Burian said that after careful
examination OF President Wilson's reply
to Germany nothing could induce him to
change his statement of the previous day
that Eat no far distant date we will
reach a cessation of hostilities on all
fronts and enter negotiations for the
conclusion Of a general. lasting and just
peace"
The technical questions and conditions
OF an armistice. with which President
Wilson dealt thorpughly. are questions
mostly OF military interest, the Baron
added. and at is n matter Of course tina,
| the negotiations and decisions on an
armistice will depend on military fac
tors"
Repeating that Austria was striving
for peace by understanding. Baron
Burian concluded by saying that the
Central Powers would refer with EN-.
phasis to President Wilson's statement
that future peace must not be peace
by force"
