Berliner Tageblatt, Admits That There 1s No Hope On West Front Even After The War--Germany Must Suffer Greatly Economically. . The striking admission that Ger- many is undergoing "very serious losses and sufferings" through the ecohomic pressure exercised by the Allies is made: by the well-known German paper, the Berliner Tage- blatt The confession is also made that the German army cannot stop the "certain and telling" sapping | which, the edemy expects, will con | tinue even more intensely when the war is oyer, The extract from the Tageblatt which -is circulated officially by the French, concludes with the intima- | | tion that Germany's hopes have van- | ished in the west; the east alone of- fers any prospect of relief. The implacable hatred which sur- rounds us on all sides shows itself more and more openly very day. We cannot even attempt to surmise as to what its limits may. be and still less foretell what will, be its disas trous consequences for na.
