A FACER FOR GERMANY.
EMPHASISED BY PRESIDENT WILSON.
London, Oct. 15. President Wilson, in his reply, said: "It is necessary, in order teat there may be no misunderstanding, that the President should very solemnly call the attention of the Government of Germany to the language and plain intention of one of the terms of peace which the German Government has now accepted. It runs as follows: 'The destruction of every arbitrary power anywhere that can separately, secretly, and of its single choice disturb tihe peace of the world, or, if it cannot presently be destroyed, at least its reduction to virtual impotency. The power which hitherto has controlled the German nation is of the sort here described. It is within the choice of the German nation to alter it.'"
The president says: "Tihe words just quoted naturally constitute a condition precedent to peace, if peace is to come by the action of the German people themselves."—Aim. N.Z. Cable Assoc. and Reuter.
