prise. Germany lias been "flying
pence kites" for some time. The semi
official statements given out by lleth-mann-Hollweg
nr.d the interviews
nn.-swi bv the German censors, have
shown lor some time that Germany
wishes to preripitato a discussion of
the war's end.
The purpose of the peace propos
als is three-fold. First, they are In
tended to open the way to the serious
peaco proposals which necessity will
compel by the fall of 1H17, and to
engage the pressure of public opinion,
not only the public opinion of neutral
nations, but that of the peace par
ties (and there are such) in the war
ring nations. Add to this a desire to
sow discord, if possible, among the
allies, a discord tending to break
their alliance and open the way to
separate negotiations, as between
Germany and Russia, and the present
diplomatic move is fully explained.

1 questionably regarded by the allies
with the most serious concern, not to
say apprehension.
