Says if Allies Go Beyond Wilson's Fourteen
Paints. German Assembly Wonld Refuse it
Copenhagen "March :.17.--If
the allies loaded the peace Jreaty
with conditions - - going- beyond
President Wilson's fourteen
points, the German national as
sembly would have to refuse to
assent to the" treaty. Matthias
Erzberger, head of the German
armistice commission, declared
in an address in a Berlin meet
ing, f avoring the formation of a
real league of nations according
to a dispatch fro n the German
capitol today. The matter then
would-beleft to a referendum of
the German nation, he said.
Herr Erzberger. disclaimed any
obligation upon Germany to give
compensation for acts she com
mitted after her first peace offer
ir December 1916.
- .The speaker declared the only
means of calling a halt on Bol- r
shevisim was the abandonment
of the mailed fist policy of the
allies. "
The German people, said Herr
Erzberger, have almost' unlimit
ed confidence in President Wil
son, and he hopes the league of
nations covenant as promulgated
February 14th. would not be fin
ally adopted as he declared it
was a compomise of the ideals of
President Wilson with the im
perialistic aspirations of some of J
the allies. The American Presi
dent, Herr : Erzberger -insisted,
was under obligations to -advo
cate the immediate-admission of
Germany into - the league.

n. , t , .....
ine wona mows mat . tne sym-
Pathy of ih PPe was for Gef
many
and. now for the .Presi
dent of this nation to kiss his
hand is simply out of the ques
tion. If President Wilson had
gone as an .individual, it would
nave been a different thing. But
as president of this nation he
could not go that way. Every
man and woman in this country
has the right to have any kind
of religion that he wants, but
the president, or any other bffi-'"
cial, has no right whatever, to
show any favor to anything that
looks like a church. ' The pope
represents the Catholic church,
and every act of his life is to
the spread of its-influence.
Every man has the right in
this country to worship God as
he sees fit, or not to worship,
3ust as-he chooses. Religion is
voluntary matter, just as the
1 individual elects for . himself
Jt is not the function of the
state to dictate, or goyern m
matters religious, For that rea-
so and official, or a representa-
tive of the pegple, should steer
ciear of showing favoritism" in
! any way to any church, or deuotn-
- mination, it may be that so
many denominations are wrong,
hut that cannbt be prevented.
The pope would .force all into
one. The recent war was against
it also, and for that reason X am
against President Wilson or any
other representative of the
American people paying . obei
sance to Jthe pope of Rome. It
was all uncalled for and unneces
