GERMAN BOMBAST IN THE REICHSTAG.
APPRECIATION OF CONSTANTINE'S STAND
ENGLAND MUST BE DESTROYED
Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. (Received October 13, 10.40 a.m.) AMSTERDAM, October 12. In the Reichstag Ilerr liassermann, speaking us the reporter of the Foreign Affairs Committee, said the general situation was satisfactory and hopeful. The Committee appreciated King Constantino's attitude. The Committee discussed the submarine policy, but did not reach an agreement or make a recommendation. It had decided against a public discussion, for fear of damage to the country's interests. The submarine successes in the Atlantic indicated Germany's martial spirit. The commanders would follow instructions and not give opportunity for complaints. Peace could only be expected when the enemy was defeated. Ilerr Spahn declared that Germany would conquer on the battlefield and in the economic war. England was a most cunning and calculating enemy, and must be destroyed. Ilerr Scheidemann said the Government must organise the defence and endeavour to secure an honourable peace.
