New York. Sept. 1s.-Count Won
Bernstorff. the German Ambassador
to the United States. discussed to-day
the prospect of peace in Europe and
the efforts of President Wilson to
bring it about.
Talk of peace was started by the
people of the United States" said the
Ambassador. Its continuance after
the answer sent by the German gov

depends upon the attitude of the
allies.
LAS long as they talk of crushing
and dism membering Germany there is
absolutely no possibility of peace.

other Englishmen. | have no idea
that Germany could be crushed or
dismembered.
mo lasting peace would be possible
Iif a square inch of German territory
was given up. That applies to the
colonies of Germany as we'll as the
German empire itself. 1t is perfectly
clear that if any territory was taken
Germany would again arm to the
teeth
Count Won Bernstorff was asked if
it was possible that peace in Europe
might lead to general disarmament.
That" he replied. would depend
upon the sentiment with which peace
was entered into by the allies"
Count Won Bernstorff said that un-
doubtedly the German Emperor had
been informed of the talk between
Ambassador Gerard and the Imperial
German chancellor and that the an

PRESIDENT WILSON
SEES NO PROSPECTS
Of PEACE MOVE NOW
Both Sides Take Same Position and
Leave Nothing Definite in
Way of Overtures

Washington. d. G, Sept. lS.-Presi-
dent Wilson sees little prospect of
peace in Europe reflected in the unotfl-
cial exchanges which American am
bassadors have been conducting with
Germany, Great Britain. France and
Russia.
This was learned to-day at the
White House following a study of the
message which Ambassador Gerard
cabled, giving his recollection of an
informal conversation with the I'M
perial German chancellor.
Until something more tangible and
more definite in the way of overtures
comes from the belligerents. the Pres
ident feels that his hands are vir-
tually tied. To undertake to elicit
terms from Great Britain. France and
Russia, as Germany suggested. would
place the President, he believes. in A
delicate position. in view of what Sir
Edward Grey has told Ambassador
Page.
The British foreign secretary re-
Gently took the position that the war
had been forced on Great Britain, that
the neutrality of Belgium had been
disregarded and that 1t would be nee
essary to crush German militarism be-
fore the allies could feel safe against
new attacks and before treaty OF
peace could be worth scrap of
paper
Sir Edward spoke of the earnest
wish OF the Triple Entente for peace,
but said they could make no COM
ment until they had received def
mite statement of terms from Germany
and Austria. Substantially the same
position was taken by France and
Russia.
Take Same Position
ON comparing the expressions from
the allied powers and that of the Inn
perial German chancellor, the Presi-
dent found that they took almost an
identical position, each charging the
other with responsibility of the war
and neither giving suggestions of any
basis for peace. The President, il is
understood. feels that in view of the
neutral position OF the American gov
ernment. il would he unwise to press
either side to make overtures to the
other. He hopes, however. that as
the war progresses. one side or the
other will make known its terms in
some definite form so that the Amer
ican government can act as a medium
of transmission and forward the peace
movement without embarrassment
II was regarded as significant in
official quarters to-day that President
Wilson had not cabled Ambassador
Page at London or that Am baSSadot
] Herrick at Paris anything concerning
the Imperial ChanCellor's noncom.
initial conversation with Ambassador
Gerard. Although the British Am
I bassador called at the State Depart
ment to discuss neutrality cases, the
subject was not mentioned to him

of hypocrisy and failure of prohibition
in various states bear witness to the
fallaciousness of the Hobson idea.
Which will you follow?
Put out of your mind for the time
being the mionr question of liquor
or mo liquor States rights and local
option will take care of that, and the
will of the people put it out where it
is not wanted by a majority. Look to
the fundamental question of govern

support Hobson's bill. But if you have

freedom and individualism, send I'M

MARRIAGE RITUAL CHANGED

At the general conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church now in
session at Oklahoma City the mar.
riage ritual of the church was changed
by striking out the word man" and
inserting husband" therefore max.
ing it to read: 81 now pronounce you
husband and wife together"
The conference received more than
40 kilograms asking for extension of
laity rights to women. The chairman
of the arrangements committee said
the attendance of delegates reached
nearly 1000.
The tobacco question came up be-
fore the conference when two com.
mittee reports were submitted, the
majority providing that applicants FOR
ministry pledge themselves against
the use of tobacco, the minority op-
posing such legislation. An hour OF
debate followed. during which the
Rev. NJ. T. Hall, of ST. Louis, declared
people of the United States and Cana
da spend $1,5OO,0OO per day for to-
bacco. He urged adoption of the ma.

Fletcher's march through south
Florida is almost like an ovation.
More and more the people seem to be
awakening to the fact that there is
no material, political or other reason
why he should not be returned to the
senate. The sober, second thought of
the people seems to crystalize in the
belief that Fletcher should be turn
ed down because the other fellow
wants the job is not sufficient rea-
son. Fletcher's colleagues in the SEN
ate say that he has made a faithful
and most capable servant of the peo-
pie of his state; the members of the
cabinet commend him highly and
President Wilson seems anxious for
his return So, just why should he
be turned down? When President
Wilson wrote the letter in which he
virtually said that he would like to
have him returned he knew that Sena-
tor Fletcher had voted for the reten-
ton of Lorimer, and was familiar with
the Bailey incident.
