Berne Conference Debates Socialist Blame War Guilt
The Berne session of the international labor conference features a tense clash between French and German socialists led by Pierre Rendudel Albert Thomas and Otto Wels. Wels accuses Britain of hunger blockade causing German deaths while urging continued Allied engagement, as Thomas counters with warnings about German social democrats' responsibility. A broad exchange follows on war responsibility and the path to reconstruction. Statements from Kurt Eisner emphasize action, while others critique Brest-Litovsk and the Bolshevik influence. A separate note from Russell and Walling of the Socialist Democratic League objects to attending Berne, labeling it sympathetic to imperial aims and a dodge of indemnities.
