REPROACHES MiR. WILSON
Germany is Not Ready to Make Final
Decision on the Treaty, Ho Indi
cates.
' Berlin, May 16.—Friedrich Ebert,
the German president, in a statement
made in the Vonvearts, has reiterated
his opposition to the peace terms sub
mitted by the entente,
i He calls them unreconcilable with
conscience and reason and insists they
must he drastically and fundamentally
corrected. Practical negotiations were
necessary, he declared, and these
•would quickly result in the attainment
of a worthy peace, if a return were
made to the fourteen points.
“As long as our remnant of hope re
mains that reason will triumph,*' con
tinued Herr Ebert, “we will not spools
our last word, but should it prove tins
mailed-list pence is to be imposed
upon hs. we shall have to take our de
cisions.
“Today 1 still hope the attempt wfll
not be made to extort from the Ger
man nation an assent which would be
nothing hut a He born of desperation.
; “We must keep faith with our coun
trymen who are threatened with sep
aration by foreign violence, and be
•ready to carry l out the hardest re
solve.’’
' In a statement given on Sunday
Herr Ebbrt says;
“The German people have demolish
ed the rule of autocracy and political
mendacity at home, hut it has not un
dertaken this job in order to enable
this same antiquated svstem elsewhere
to dictate the future of the world in a
.grossly exaggerated form.
“Germany laid down her arms and
armament six months ago. Therefore,
she is now all the more effectively ar
mored morally when she faces a world
of foe? in defense those arms. She
has seized and unfurled a new banner
on which is inscribed President Wil
son's fourteen points, which tlfe presi
dent apparently has deserted.
“She, therefore, hopes that the
American people will correctly grasp
and interpret the deeper significance
of the new spiritual struggle upon
which we are now entering."
, At another point Herr Ebert said
the ominous quiet produced *bv the
first announcement of the peace terms
was a most characteristic indication
of their effect on the German people.
“For the moment.” be continued,
“we were all crushed. We had a feel
ing as if we had been stunned by a
blow from a heavy club, momentarily
paralyzing all mental action. The
blow found the German people unpre
pared, and. therefore, its effect was
all the greater.”
. Herr Ehert said he feared an out
break of “psychic furor Teutonlcus"
within a few days and that the wrath
of the soul of the people when it
reached the boiling point would know
no bounds as a result of the deep d's
appointment and anger horn of fury
and Just indignation.
“The peace draft laid before us,”
said, “produced an equal feel’ng of
horror and revulsion. It not only sig
nifies distortion hut the complete nega
tion of the fourteen points enunciated
hy President Wilson, the realization of
whose program we took for granted
—a faith to whieh we wore entitled on
the strength of Secretary of Stale T.an
sing’s nofa of November o.
“Pefoke me lies a pamphlet discuss
ing President Wilson and a peace of
Justice. It deals with h’s senate mes
sage of January 22. 1917, In which he
refey to the need of a peace without
vict<y.
“President Wilson says; ‘The vietoi
must not force his conditions on the
vanquished. This would mean peace
asserted under humiliation, under
force and intolerable sacrifice and
leave nothing definite: it would leave
a sting, revenge, bitterness, giving
such a peace an Insecure foundation
Only a peace between equals can on
Jure.’ ”
