The president would deem himself lacking in candor did he not point out in the frankest possible terms the reason why J extraordinary safeguards must be demanded. Significantly important as the constitutional changes seem to be which are spoken of by th German foreign secretary in his note of the 20th of October, it does ; not appear that the principle of a government responsible to the German people has yet been fully worked out or that any guarantees either exist or are in contemplation that the alteration of principle and of practice now partially agreed tipoq will be permanent. , Moreover, it does not . appear that" the heart of the present difficulty has been reached, It may be that future wars have been brought under the Control of the German people, but the present war has not been ; and it is with the present war that we are dealing. It is evident that the German people hav no mans bf commanding the acquiescence of the military authorities of the empire in the popular will , that the power of the king of Prussia to control the policy of the empire is unimpaired ; that the determining in itiative still remains with those who have hitherto been the masters of Germany. Feeling that the whole peace of the world depends now on plain speaking and straightforward action, the president deems it his duty to say, without any attempt to soften what may seem harsh words, that the nations of the world do not and cannot trust the word of those who havfc hitherto been the masters of German policy, and to point out once more that in concluding peace and attempting to undo the infinite injuries and injustices of this war the govern- ment of the United States can-- J not deal with any but veritable . representatives of the German people who have been assured of a genuine constitutional stand-ingT- is ths real -- rulers of Germany.
