III Paris, Feb. 27.-The ,concensus Of
Fopinion in official and diplomatic
circles concerning Count Won Heruings
speech Is that 1t Is a war speech" not
peace speech
A high official informs the Asso-
ciated Press that the aim Of Won
Hertling was three fold. First, he de-
sired to create a division between the
allies. Second. he wanted to stimulate
peace talk in allied and neutral coun-
{ tries in an effort to bring about an
other Brest-Litovsk." Third, the
maneuver was intended to create a
feeling in Germany and abroad that
the militarists do not rule in Germany.
He also wished to minimize the
opinion at home and abroad that tho
military party ruled Germany. and
that Germany now was willing to
meet the allies In the diplomatic field.
The official concluded:
1T seems to be treacherous move
on the part Of Won Hertling to secure a
respite in the west and give the mill
tary leaders time to consolidate the
success in Russia"
Belgium TO Make No Reply.
A Belgian diplomatic official told the
Associated Press that Belgium prob
ably would not respond to Won Hert-
ling's brutal and undiplomatic request.
He said ID was Belglum's intention to
remain staunch to its allied friends
and protectors.
The French press generally considers
won Hertling's speech as a continuance
Of German efforts to create differences
between the allies.
