task of giving peace bread work and a new constitution to a great nation. Tho task is difficult to fulfill as long as those who have it in their power to give the world peace allow them selves to be dominated by feelings of hatred and revenge and by means of the hunger blockade and by threaten ing our annihitatiOn, are driving the German people to despair.
 Five months ago we accepted our enemies terms. We agreed with them on the basis for a peace. We have disbanded our army, surrender ed enemy prisoners, but peace is still withheld from us. Though defence less and economic ically exhausted, we are still cut off by the blockade and our prisoners arc still detained. which is equivalent to a continuation of the war. It is a burden such as no na- tion has as yet been compelled to en- dure We have done everything to obtain peace from our enemies and to libcrate our nation from this 1n- tOlera ble torture. The responsibility for all the consequences which must follow the continuance of the present situation, for us and the world, must fall on their shoulders.
 President Ebert concludes by de- nouncinE the internal disturbers of the country. whose action, he said, threatens to completely destroy our economic life.
 He exhorts all classes to ''cease tearing one another to pieces.'
