"The effort of Pope Benedict is to i
pave the -way.. to - an. understanding:
amongst all peoples and might more
surely reckon on a sympathetic recep
tion and the wlfole-hcarlcd support
from his - majesty seeing that the
kaiser, iSrice taking over the govern
, nicn has regarded it as his principal
and most sacred task to preserve the
blessings, of peace for the German
people, and the world. In his first
speech from the throne at the open
ing of the German reichstag on June
25. 1888, the kaiser, promised that his
love of the German army and his po
sition , toward, it .should never lead
him into temptation to cut short the
benefits of peace unless war were a
necessity, forced on by an attack on
: the empire or its allies. The German
army should safeguard peace for us
and should peace, nevertheless, he
broken, it would be in a position to
win With honor. The kais-er has, by
his act?, fu'niiicu the promise he then
made in twenty-six .years of happy
nil'. despite provocaaions and temp-
tations.
' Kalstr Entered War Again-.t Will.
"In 4hc crisis which led to the pres--rrx
world conflagration, his majesty's
effortt were up to the last moment
directed towards settling the conflict
by peaceful means. After the war had
broken out. against his wish and de
sire,, the kaiser in conjunction with his
' high allies was the first to solemnly de
clare his readinc:; to enter in'.j peace
negotiations. The German people sup
' , ported his majesty in his keen t desire
" for ncace,
f "Germany sought within her na.
tional frontier the --free development
of her spiritual and material posses
sions and outside the imperial terri
tory ui'hinderedj:ompetiti6n with na
tions enjoying equal rights and equal
esteem. The free play of forces in
the world in peaceable wrestling with
one another would lead to the high
est perfecting of . the noblest Ita
man possessions. ,
"Disastrous 'concatenation of events
in the' yar 1914 absolutely. broke off
all hopeful course of development and
transformed Europe into a bloody bat
tic arena." ' '
Appreciates Importance
"Appreciating the importance of
his holiness' declaration, the imperial
Government has not failed to submit
the suggestion contained therein to
earneit ar.d scrupulous examination.
; ."Special measures which the gov-
eminent has taken in' closest contact
with representatives of the German
peoples for discussing and answering
the questions raised prove how earn
estly it desires) in accordance with
. his holiness' desires, and the peace
resolution of the Reichstag on July
19. to find a practical basis for a just
. and lasting peace. '
"The imperial government greets
with special sympathy the leading
idea of the peace appeal wherein his
holiness clearly expresses the con
viction that in the future the material
power of arms must be superseded
- by thejnoral power of right. We are
also IWhvtnced that the sick body of
human society can be healed only by
' fortifying its moral strength of right.
From this would follow, according to
his holiness view, the simultaneous
diminution of the armed forces of
all states and the institution of obli
gatory arbitration for international
disputes.
' Limitation of Armaments.
"We share his holiness' view that
definite rulesyand a certain safeguard
for a simultaneous snd reciprocal
limitation" of armaments on. land, on
sea and in the air, ss well as for the
true freedom of the community snd
high seas, are the things, in treating
which the new spirit thaWin tlie fu
ture should prevail in international
relations should find first hopeful ex
pression. Thevtask would then of it
self arise to decide international dif
firfnre of onininn. not bv the use of
armed forces, but by peaceful mcthVj

this respect support every proposal
compatible witli thevital interest of
the German empire and people. ,
"Germany, owing to its geograph
ical situation and economic require
ments, has to rely on' peaceful inter
course with its neighbors and with
distant Countries. No people, there
fore, has more reason than the Ger
man people to wish that instead of
universal hatred and battle that a";
conciliatory fraternal spirit should
prevail between nations.
Condition for Peace.N
"If the nations are guided by this
spirit it will be recognised to their
advantage that the important thing
is to lay more stress upon what unites

thereby a repetition of this great

alter the position of the United States
as outlined in President Wilson's
reply to the pope.
The replies as received here in As
sociated Preis dispatches were close
ly studied today by all officials and
diplomats here, who gave indications
that they were little less than had
been expected.
First examination of the replies, of
ficials thought, failed to disclose anv-l
thine in the nature of terms whicln
would afford a basis for discussion.
ULTIMATUM SENT

(Continued from Pb One.)
diplomatic and consular representa
tives of Germany here and the Costa
Rica legation and consuls in termany
were recalled. The people and the
newspapers strongly approved of the
government' action. '
Interne German Residents.

ber 17, said that diplomatic relations
between Costa Rica and Germany
were considered severed because
President Tinic. had discovered that
German residents had joined with the
followers of former. President Gon
rale? in conspiring against the gov
ernment. The advice added that all
German residents in Cosh Rican
ports had been ordered intened and
that the president had called congress
in "special session to consider the sit
uation. "
