EXCESS OF IMAGINATION.
GERMAN VIEW OF FRENCH. 'REPLY TO RECENT MESSAGE. Times 'and Sydney San Serrices. fEteceiyed December 9. 12.15 a.m.) Amsterdam. December 8. A German wireless message reads as follows:—" A French '• wireless message related that Germany had prohibited the exportation of newspapers because she was afraid the world would know' the truth of the session of the Reichstag. France knows this is untrue. 'It is what France would like to be true. The reason for these excesses of the, imagination lies in the fact that French enthusiasm and hopefulness as to the result of the war is ebbing. The best proof of the fantastic nature of these reports will be the coming- dignified debates, in- the Reichstag. When France suffers a reverse on .the battlefield or ir diplomacy she invents German peace proposals in order to revive he spirits. This is" why the news tha Germany is seeking peace is sprea< throughout the world and reports o Prince von Billow's mission invented which are as untrue as the talk o the Kaiser's visit to Constant] nople."
