This article focuses on documents related to peace-making efforts in the aftermath of First World War. The official programme of the Spartacus Society of Germany calls for abolition of all power of command hitherto vested in officers and non-commissioned officers, military authority to be supplanted by the voluntary discipline of the soldiers. According to the proposal for creation of a financial society of nations laid before the French Chamber of Deputies on December 3, 1918, the economic progress of the whole world depends upon a solution which shall revive credit. The Chamber requests the French Government to secure an agreement among the Allied Powers, by which the charges occasioned by the war may be apportioned among them by a financial society of nations.
