SOCIALISTS IN
AGREEMENT UPON
BASIS OF PEACE
Favorable Replies Received by
British Labor Party From
Enemy Countries on In
ter-Allied Proposals.
By Associated Press.
Northampton, England, July 13.
Arthur Henderson, labor leader and
member of the British War cabinet,
peaking today at a labor conference
here, said the British labor party
last month had succeeded in getting
its statement of war aims into the
hands of the socialists in enemy
countries and that five replies thus
.far had been received.
Mr. Henderson continues:
"The first reply came from the Bul
garian socialists, who accepted prac
tically all the general points of our
memorandum, reserving some unim
portant points regarding Macedonia.
The second reply came from the
Hungarian workers, who have sub
mitted to the Stockholm committee
a statement of policy much on the
lines of our memorandum.
"The third reply came from the
Austrian socialists, who accepted
Austrian socialists, who accepted the
principles of the inter-allied memo
randum as a basis for discussion.
They indorsed our conception of a
federal system for Austria-Hungary
and a similar system for the Balkan
states.
"They declared they had always re
pudiated the Brest-Litovsk peace
treaty and they agreed that Alsace
Lorraine and Italian, Polish and co
lonial questions must be solved in
accordance with the desires of the
peoples concerned.
Germans Willing to Confera.
"The fourth especially came from
the German minority socialists who
submitted a statement to the Stock
holm committee on the lines of the
inter-allied memorandum.
"The fifth and the most significant
reply came from the German majority
socialists, who endeavored to send it
by Troelstra, but the action of the
allies in refusing passports to Troel
stra prevented the written document
from reaching us. Nevertheless, we
received a summary which shows that
the German majority socialists de
clared their willingness to take part
in an international conversation on
the basis of the proposals made by
the neutral socialists.
"It also seems clear that the Ger
man majority socialists accept vir
tually all the principles of the inter
allied memorandum. They are ready
to discuss even the question of the
responsibility for the war, although
they think that no good purpose
would be served thereby. They are.
ready to discuss Belgium and Alsace
Lorraine and believe that an amica
ble solution can be found. They
agreed to a complete restoration of
Belgian independence. They urge
that an1 international conference
would be very useful at this time
and finally they declare themselves
in favor of a league of nations to
prevent aggression by one power
upon another."

ROUMANIAN PEACE
PACT SCORED BY
TEUTONDEPUTY
German People Humbugged by
Treaty of Bucharest, Declars
Member of Conservative
Party In Reichstag.
Amsterdam, July 13. "One or two
more such peace treaties and we are
lost," exclaims Herr von Graefe, a
conservative member of the Reich
stag, in an indictment of former For
eign Secretary von Kuehlmann's "no
indemnity, no annexations," peace
treaty of Bucharest. The article,
which is published in the Pan-German
Deutsche Zeitung, develops four
points, as follows:
"First Austria-Hungary has re
ceived by frontier rectifications the
lion's share of the moet valuable
Roumanian territory, but we have to
shoulder our billions of war debt.
"Second The petroleum agree
inent is an absolute swindle. By it
the banks profit, but not the German
people.
"Third We get Roumanian grain,
but at usury prices, of which the
Roumanian treasury is sure to grab
the mam part by way of export du
ties, so it is we who pay an indemnity
to Roumania.
"Fourth The dynastic question
and the position of Jews in Roumania
are dealt with on the basis of the Ber
lin treaty of 1878, when self-determi
nation and rights ;and noninterfer
ence in internal affairs of conquered
states had r.ot been invented."
The writer declared the German
people have been sadly humbugged
and that when their eyes are opened
they will heap maledictions upon the
heads ot those who drafted the Buch
arest treaty.
