Great Demonstrations
in Dual Monarchy
and Riots in Ger
many Reported

Discussion of peace possibilities
following the war aims speeches Of
the German Imperial Chancellor, Won
Hertling, and the Austro- Hungarian
Foreign Minister, Czernin, continue
to hold attention in all the bellig-
erent nations. Some of the princi-
pal developments are:
Philip Scheidemann, Majority So
cialist leader, told the Reichstac
Main Comrnittee that the military
leaders of Germany would be
.'hurled from power" if they did
not bring about peace with Rus-
sia. He made a strong plea for a
general peace, but said Alsace-
Lorraine could not be given up.
Petrograd' Bolshevik newspapers say
workshen's and soldiers organi-
cations have been formed in
Vienna and great peace demon
strations continue throughout the
dual monarchy. There are ru-
mors in Amsterdam, where no
messages or newspapers are arriv :
ing from Berlin, of a revolutions
in Germany and bread riots, ruth
lessly suppressed.
Austria has declared she is neady
to sign a peace with Russia, lcav-
ing out Germany, says an agenc!
dispatch from Petrograd. The
Bolshevik national congrcsst has
instructed Foreign Minister Tfotz
ky to continue peace negotia-
tions at Brest-Litovsk.
Count Czernin told Socialist oues-
TONERS he meant his war aims
speech for the ears of Presiden:
Wilson.
German opinion is divided over the
Hertling speech. The Painter
mans think it weak, while the So
cialist "Vorwaerts" considers it
masterpiece of ambiguity Lon
don newspapers for the most part
see no hope of peace in the two
pronouncemcnts, although some
arc attracted by the alleged pos
sibility of negotiations between
AUSTRIA Hungary and the United
States.
