Berlin, Oct. 6.
The official German reaction to President Roosevelt's speech in Chi-cage is contained to-day in the "Diplomatische Correspondenz," which says that if a statesman of President Roosevelt's calibre thus apostrophizes all peoples, his duty is not only to see outward symptoms but to investigate and discover the whereabouts of harmful thoughts and their origin.
As far as Europe is concerned, the newspaper declares, he should take up the threads where Mr. Roosevelt has dropped them. If the President sees salvation in the formation of a union of peaceful nations, such a proposal is only of practical value if preceded by a clear definition of what is evil and what is good—Reuter.
