Despondent AttitudeBy the German Press

LONDON. Aug. 7..The despondenttone of the latest German press com¬ments is emphasized daily in speeia,despatches from Holland. A despatchto the Daily Mail from Tlie Hague tod#yincludes an editorial by the DusseldorfNachr#'hten which says that nobodylooking into the future can see an endto the war."For though it is true that the end

might come quickly" it adds, "it could <

only be an end of terror as in Russia."The Vorwaarts of Berlin says that

events of recent days at last have shat¬tered the illusion, created by inspiredoptimism that Germany is invincible*-''It says:"The German people at last realize ;

the rollossal gravity of the situation.Let us have courage to admit that as

long as the war is not ended, it is notwon and can be lost."The principal North German organ of

the Majority socialists, the BuergerZeitung of Bferuen says:"Black and dnrk is the hour. The

sacrifice mad* by the people are im¬measurable and those of the fifth yearof the wnr will be gigantic but no re¬

freshing breath of freedom and civicequality blows through the oppressivenight of our discontent.
