The lower picture is called "The Reality," the quotation from Moltke underneath being "March separately, strike together." On its left:
The War was decided at Potsdam.
During a debate on the origin of the war in the Hungarian Parliament, Count Tisza claimed that the ultimatum to Serbia was drawn up at a conference at which no German representative was present.
A Deputy: Not in Vienna but in Potsdam.
Count Tisza: Neither in Potsdam nor anywhere else.
The Deputy: The ultimatum was not drawn up at Potsdam, but the outbreak of war was decided there.
A Prophecy.
The Dutch newspaper, the Handelsblad, reports that a person who has just returned from Germany saw this rhyme written up in gigantic letters at an important factory:
"If the war lasts another year,
William's fate will be the Tsar's!"
Leaflet No. 15 (between pages 160 and 161).
German prisoners of war arriving behind the British lines are greeted by their comrades, who assure them of good treatment.
Leaflet No. 16 (between pages 160 and 161).
WHY THE GOVERNMENT IS SUING FOR PEACE.
The reason is clear.
The Government undertook the war in the hope of realising the Pan-German dream of a Middle Europe.
This was the real cause of the war.
If there remained any doubt on the subject it is clearly proved by the fact that the moment the realisation of the Pan-German dream became impossible the Government sues for peace.
This was the plan of the Pan-Germans who led us into the war.
The whole of the territory coloured black was to become German.
Bulgaria and Turkey would become vassal States.
The Kaiser and the Prussian Junker aristocracy, the bureaucrats and the rich who exploit the rest of the people, should become the most powerful class in the world.
