The Kaisor today inaugurated a speech-making propa ganda throughout Germany to unify the empire on Germany's peace terms and to prepare the public mind for peace. Under the auspices of the German National Committee, an organization having the approval of the official censorship, fifty well known German Wetors will make the same speech in fifty German cities today. The speech is unofficially known to -represent Chancellor von Bethmann Hollweig's peace term views. The speech is being awaited with the keenest interest by both, friends' and foes of Dr. Hollweig.

He declared for 'a now 'policy of "firm' ness and consistency, toward Mexico, for "die .unflinching maintenance of aH American rights on land and sea," md for "adequate national defense; adequate protection on both our west ern and eastern coasts." 1 'We denounce all plots and con spiracies in the interest of any for eign nation," Mr. Hughes said. "Ut terl' intolerable is the use of our soil tqt alien intrigues. Every American must unreservedly condemn them and support every effort for their sup pression." The nominee assailed the Adminis- !iati6n for its direction of diplomat ic intercourse" from the beginning, declaring that where there should have been conspicuous strength ; and alertness there had been weakness and inexpertness. He cited San Do mingo as an instance where appoint ments had gone to "deserving Demo crats" and to the failure to continue Ambassador Herrick at his post in Paris after the war had started, as a 'lamentable sacrifice of international repute." "I endorse the declaration in the platform in favor of woman suf frage," Mr. Hughes declared.

The warring nations of Europe are af their last jtand. as they enter . today upon ihe Two years of prodigal expenditures, of enormous losse? and, of indecisive victories and defeats have led up to the final phase of the great Struggle which discloses neither side able as let to dictate terms to the other.

' ' The two years of conflict have iemonstrated that in a war as com- j'ex as is the European struggle, oth- 3r forces beside toso, controlled by he militarists : play an increasingly mportant' pari in the final" outcome.
