PEACE FEELER
IN BAD FAT /
TREATMENT OF THE
SUBJECT IRONICAL
No Immediate Formal Com
ment on Latest Contribu-
ton on War Aims.

The German imperial chancellor
again has told the relchstag that
general peace is possible Of dis
cussion on the basis OF the four
essential principles laid down
sometime ago by President Wilson
in an address to congress. Almost
in the same breath. however. the
usual qualifications were entwired
amid his uttcrances. leaving the
suspicion that the Central powers.
if they are desIrous Of peace. still
have their old ideals Of victor
ious peace to the fore.
Conditional upcn the acceptance
even Of the principles OF President
Wilson was the declaration by
Chancellor Won Hcrtlng that they
must not only be proposed by the
pres idcnt. but actually be reoo9nIz-
ed by all states and people. IN
addition, there was no court OF
arbitration IN which Germany
could place her trust. he said.
The old accusation that Great
Britain's war aims are imperial
,stic was reiterated by the
chancellor.
AS if endeaVoring 70 divide the
sentiment Of the people OF Great
Britain, the spokesman for the Ger
man government declared that the

the passion for war. There are,
he added dramatically. "other
voices to be heard in England.
It is hoped these voices viii
multiply"
As whole the chanceIIor's ad-
dress was devoid Of rancor. the
speaker seemingly having as his
purpose - paint d picture to those
AZ home who arc dissatisfied with
the war in general and the resump.
ton of host!ItlcS against Russia.
how generous Germany is inclined
to be. To this end he went to the
point OF declaring that Germany
