Premier Scheidemann Speech Wins German Press Approval
Berlin May 14 The premier's speech in the national assembly declaring the peace terms unacceptable to Germany was approved almost unanimously by the German press. Police precautions were taken around the Adlon hotel and allied mission headquarters to prevent trouble as American missions faced mounting tension. Ministers await Versailles negotiations before deciding on any treaty singling. The cabinet and peace committee met to discuss Versailles developments while envoys stay in close contact with Berlin. American officials monitor the situation across Germany, with opposition strongest outside Bavaria. Soldiers with helmets guard streets beneath portraits of William II and Bismarck as crowds react to the address.
