GERMAN PRESS OPINION
DIVIDED ON PAPAL NOTE
AMSTCIIOAM Aug 17
Ue spile the 'evv of the Allied press that
the peace appeal of Pope Benedict Is fler-man-lnsplred,
It is not cpllle pro-(!ernian
enough to suit a portion of tlie derman
press
The I.okal Aii7elger todav wains der
many to lemalti c (impost d The Pope only
mentioned one of derin.ni) s essential terms,
the paper atntcd that concerning her coio
n'cs and tills Is uii'atisfactorv
Catholic pipers congiatulatn the Copt
on his initiative Otliera are divided eithei
making no comment, taking a position sim
ilar to that or tho I.okal Anze'ger or ad
vising that tho Pontjff's appeal be given
careful consideration
Several newspapers say that the Pon
tiff had sounded out both belligeient groups
in advance They intimate that tho En
tente, therefore, probably is in sympathy
with his mediation
The Catholic organ dei mania Insists tlie
step was of such sweeping Importance that
it is Impossible It was taken without the
atlcan first getting In touch with both
groups of warring factions Thn news
paper pretends to know the noto contains
one material point missing fiom tho pub
lished summaiy. namely, a pre-war eco
nomic rapprochement
Tho Vorwaerts refers, In connection with
the Pope's peaco offers, to current rumors
of a conference of llnanclers of the bel
ligerent powers recently held in Switzer
land It sajs the German public Is entitled
to full Information regarding tho confer
ence. It demands a statement from Dr
Helfferich. the Vice Chancellor, who, an a
former Secretary of the Imperial Treasury,
presumably had knowledge of It
The Kreuz Zeltung. of Ilerlln, says sym
pathy with the Pope's wish for 'peace must
disappear when It is seen ho has united
himself with such conditions aa restorations
and no Indemnities.
The Berlin Tagllscha Ituudi-chau con
siders the nature of the peace outlined by
tho Pope muBt compel the Central Powers
to refuse the office of the Pontiff. This
newspaper says It fears tho nffalr will
hao an unhappy Influence not only In
Austrlu. but among Catholics In Germany
Tho Cologne Zcltung refrains from com
ment until tho full text of the Pope's note
is obtained. Nevertheless, it considers the
proposal to enter Into negotiations on the
basis ot the Pontiff's program should not
be rejected.
This newspaper says It Is not aware of
the derman Government's attitude. It be
lieves logic prescribes that the Govern
ment, In conformity with Its previous atti
tude, should follow the path Indicated by
the Pontiff.
