Cry of Deepest Despair
Going Throughout Germany

Speaking today in the National Az
semly. Philip Scheidemann. the
chancellor. said semi-officiall :nd
non-ofticial reports were increasing
daily that fresh aggrevations in the
peace conditions are expected to be
announced; that unprecedented sums
In compensation are to be imposed;
that wide stretches of purely German
territory are to be taken. and that
crushing restrictions are to be ;m-
posed in financial and military mat

Assuredly large part of these al
legged conditions are invented" the
chancellor continued, $50 that by re-
lation they will accustom us to these
unheard of demands and the final
conditions may seem almost bearable
to us. They are invented in order to
create an atmosphere which will
suffocate protest even against a peace
of violence. Our peoples, which werc
il1-treated by the armistice more
cruelty than by the war, recognize
this method. A cry. not of the
Chauvinist nature. but of the deepest
despair, which appeals to the highest

manity-is going throughout Ger
many"
Herr Scheidman nsaid the prot eats
against he alleged condition were due
to patriotic fear. The government
knew this royalty to the empire was
the most valuable possession entrust-
ed to its control and would not per-
NIT it to be entrenched upan at home

The chancellor appealed to the peo-
pie to stand together. adding:
1.-THE so-called radicals of the left
have no right to protest against acts
OF oppression, for we are responsible
under the treaties Of Brest Litoysk
and Bucharest"

rejected proposal to establish an
