ACUTE CRISIS IN GERMANY
GOVERNMENT'S POLICY IN' THE AIR
ENTENTE DISTRUST OF THE KAISER REALISED
' (Rec. September 23, 11.10 p.m.) London, September 22. Tho "Daily Chronicle's" Amsterdam correspondent states: "A German political crisis is developing owing_to the recognition by important sections of public opinion that tho Entente Powers' distrust of the Kaiser has made their Governments unlikely to respond to any peace overtures'emanating from them. Many political conferences are proceeding." The "Daily Telegraph's" Rotterdam correspondent states that the reassembly of tho Boichstag is awaited with tho tonsost expectation. The position can fairly bo described as that tho Government does not know how it is to govern, whilo the politicians in power do not know what policy to pursue. Certainly Germany's rulers are, trying to stave oft the final disaster by convincing the Army and-tho people that demoralisation must cease. A .National Government must be established with one policy, namely, to save the Fatherland Jrom destruction.. Admiral Behucko's appointment amounts to a confession that ruthless submarine warfare Has failed. Admiral Behucke has always opposed the application of ruthlessn'ess to noutrais. He. apparently considers it suicidal to' invito fresh complications.—Reuter.
