Gustave Herve, editor of the Guerre Sociale, says "The French Socialists will nerves help the Kaiser and' his junkers to escape unhurt from the river of blood wherein they are , drowning | themselves. Liebknecht is against annexations. "We go further and ds! mand that the Hapsburgs release the Poles, Roumangans,- Czechs, ' Serbs, Croats and Italians from their yoke and that the Hohenzollerns give lib earty of Schleswig, the Danes, the Poles and the Alsatians. That is the first plank in. the peace pro gramme of the French Socialists and they won't aecept less." ------ War Tidings. The Dutch are strongly opposed to intervention in'the war, but their army is ready to repel any invasion Mont { of Dutch territory, complete prepara- tions with that object having been made long ago. The people of Europe are expect- antly awaiting a renewal of the at- tack on the Dardanelles, this time with land and sea forces. But the only news from that part of the world to-day is that Turkey has de- cided to call up all men capable of bearing arms, an indication that she expects the Allies to bring eéxceed- ingly strong forces against her. Italy's failure to enter the war up to the present time is explained in official circles as due to the fact that the cotintry's statesmen do not wish to plunge the nation into the enor- | i mo risks r t firs X~ { help those who need assistance, but mous. risks of war without first ex { we should not demand it to provide {for a set of loiterers who refuse to help themselves by accepting work when it is offered fo them.
