Show TEACHING CHILDREN GERMANPR0PA6ANQA Public Schools Near Hamburg Ham-burg Engage in Demonstration Demon-stration Against U. S. COPENHHAGEX, Sept. 11. German children, as well as German women, are now being mobilized in the agitation against President Wilson 's standpoint. A beginning has been made at Harbuig, near Hamburg, where all the public schools on Sunday participated in a demonstration at wiich the usual telegrams tele-grams were seut to Emperor William. Chancellor Michaelis and Field Marshal vou Hindenburg. The .Roman Catholic Mercantile association of Germany also adopted a similar resolution. The Vorwaerts of Berlin points out editorially today that the motive of the conservative and pan-German wirepullers, wire-pullers, to which attention has been called in recent dispatches, namely, to utilize the American note to the 'pope for exciting anew tho bellicose passions of the people, and above all for delivering deliver-ing a mighty blow to the democratic movement, is steadily becoming more apparent. All the resolutions were drafted on the same model. They commenced with a display of strong language against President Wilson, and then proclaimed a readiness to hold out until victorious peace was attained. They- contained a more or less open attack on the reichs-tag reichs-tag resolution, declaring it to be unrepresentative un-representative of the people's will, and concluded with a declaration of loyalty to the reigning dynasty. The new fatherland party of Admiral von Tirpitz and Privy Councillor Wolfgang Wolf-gang Kapp, who was once sacrificed by Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg, the former imperial chancellor, as the chief of the pirates of public opinion, has been formed, as Vorwaerts points out, as part of the same scheme to discredit the reichstag majority, and to persuade Chancellor Michaelis to disregard the peace resolution entirely. The Bremen labor unions have protested pro-tested against the recent resolution adopted by the Bremen merchant guilds, which averred that in Bremen the population was opposed to the reichstag reichs-tag majority attitude on peace. The labor unions endorse the reichstag resolution. |
