Amsterdam, Feb. 26.-Speaking be-

Il can fundamentally agree with the
four principles, which in President
Wilson's view must be applied in a
mutual exchange of views. and thus
declare with President Wilson that a
general peace can be discussed on
such basis.
only one reserve need be made in
this connection: These principles
must not only be proposed by the Pres
ident of the United States, but also
must actually be recognized by all
states and peoples.
| But this goal has not yet beer
reached. There is still no court o!
arbitration established by, all the ma
tons for the preservation of peace In
the name of justice.
(, Unfortunately, however, there is nc
trace Of similar statements on the par
of the leading powers of the entente
England's war aims are still thorough
ly imperialistic and she wants to i'm
pose on the world a peace according
to England's good pleasure.
IF, therefore. a proposal came from
the opposing side, for example. from
the government in Havre, we SHOULD
not adopt an antagonistic attitude
even though the discussion at frs
might only be unbinding.

tachments which first entered Pskov

the neighborhood of Pskov."

mics are now everywhere resisting the
invaders. At Narya the garrison and
