They worked vainly for an | international understanding, | when war did come they themselves the disposal fatherland. It then refers deelaration of the party Reichstag August 4, 1914, said: ““We demand, as woon as safoty has been secured, and our opponents are in- clined to peace, that the war be brought {to an end through a peace which will {make possibie friendships with neighbor- jng nations. placed | of the to the| in at which | Protest Agninst Amnexation. { The appeal closes with these words: | ““The managing committee of the Vor- | stand of the mocial democratic party al- ways has been opposed to a polloy of | | conquest, We now ralse anew our sharp- | | est protest against every effort and every proclamation the purpose of which is che | annexation of forelgn territory and the | oppression of other nations—efforts and | proclamations which have become public | in Germany, particularly through the de- mands of great economic associations as well as through the speeches of leading non-socialist politicians. “Fven the recital of such efforts serves turther to postpone that peace which 1s warmly desired by the whole nation. The people want peace! If this war which daily demands new sacrifices is not to draw itself out needlessly. to endure un- til the full exhaustion ofall the nations in 1t one of the participa fne powers must | offer the hand of peace. Germany, who, attacked by greatly superfor forces has | thus far victoriously defended itself against all its enemies, brought their | starvation plan to naught and demon- strated that it is unconquerable, shouid take the first step to bring about peace. | In Name of Humanity. “In the name of humanity and culture, situation brought about by the bravery but ;' |of our comrades in arms we demand ot‘ | the government that it make known fis | | readiness to enter peace negotiations in | taught by the great war in Europe and to fesrlessly discard all theories which fail to stand the acid test.
