Excerpt from Those German Peace Offers

Germany's one formal offer of nego tiations was 'made m a Note to America in December 1916: It contained the brazen falsehood-that it was for the defence of then existence and freedom of their natural development'that the four Allied Powers (germany, Austria, Turkey, and Bulgaria) were constrained to take up arms. Prince Lichnowsky, Germany's own Ambassador, has told us that she insisted upon war for the massacre of Serbia when all the rest of Europe was strong for peace. But however unpromising this prelude of lies might be, President Wilson did his utmost to turn the Openmg to account and to see if peace could be accomplished.
