Both Great Britain and France have
stated unequivocally to the American
government that they were always
willing to talk peace but must know
definite terms declaring with emphasis
their belief that the peace of Europe
obtained through the present war must
be permanent and not temporary truce.
The allied powers have informed the
American government that owing 20
