German Treaty PbJItles.
From the Dallas News.

A German might feel nat the treaty
violates every principle declared by their
enemies as an inducment to surrender,
and vet think that Germany has less to
lose from accepting than from rejecting
the treaty. What iss not SO natural 10
the influence ~ uaStfsan motive which
evidently a~ninnates so many in each OF
these groups. Not all of those who would
accept the treaty are moved by the belief
that Germany would lose less by accept
ing than by rejecting. The radical so
ciaists favor that course for the avowed
reason that they thipk the adoption Of Il
would surely result In putting their party
into power. And the Year that IL would
have that result seems to be one Of the
reasons which the moderate socialists
have for urging that 1t be rejected. unless
materially modified.
