TALKING OF PEACE.
Won HERTLING SAYS PEACE CAN
BE DISCUSSED ON WILSON
PLAN.
German Chancellor Says He Funda-
mentally Agrees With Principles
Laid Down by President, With Only
One Reservation.

Amsterdam, Feb. 25.-Speaking be-
fore the reichstag today the Imperial
German chancellor, Count Won Hert-
ling, made this declaration:
II can fundamentally agree with
the four principles, which in Presi-
dent Wilson'S view must be applied
in mutual exchange Of views. and
thus declare with President Wilson
that a general peace can be discussed
on such a basis.
only one reserve need be made in
this connection: These principles
must not only be proposed by the
president of the United States, but
must also be actually be recognized
by all States and peoples"
But this goal has not been reach
ed. There is still no court of arbitra-
tion established by all the nations for
the preservation of peace in the name
of justice. When President Wilson in
cidentally says that the German chan
cellor is speaking to the tribuanl of
the entire world, must decline this
tribunal as prejudiced. joyfully as /
would greet it, if an impartial court
Of arbitration existed and glad as I
would cooperate to release such ideals.
Unfortunately, however, there is
no trace of similar statements of the
| leading powers of the entente. Eng
lands war aims are still thoroughly
imperialistic and she wants to impose
on the world peace according to
England's good pleasure.
when England talks about the
peoples right of self-determination
she does not think of applying the
principle to Ireland. Egypt and India
1T has been repeatedly said that
we do not contemplate retaining Bel
gium, but that we must be safeguard
ed from the danger of country with
which we desire after the war to live
in peace and friendship, becoming the
object of jumping off ground of enc.
my machinations. If. however, the
proposal came from the opposing side
for example, from the government
In Havre. we should not adopt ar
antagonistic attitude, even though the
discussion at first might only be un.
binding.
| Meanwhile, I really admit Presi.
dent Wilson's message Of February II
constitutes perhaps a small step to.
ward a mutual approachment."
