President Holds.
Washington.-Wa was the
scene Of several developments in the
movement "to get the boys out of
the trenches by Christmas" in which
Hnry Ford and the woman's peace
party are collaborating.
II was indicated definitely that
President Wilson does not believe that
the time is opportune for the Ameri.
can Government to make a new peace
move.
Mr. Ford announced that he has
assurances from officials of ma
jority of the important Powers on
each side Of the European war that
they have no objection to the assem-
bling OF a peace conference. He de-
clined to give out the names OF these
officials.
Mr. Ford conferred during the az
ternoon with Associate Justice Hughes
OF the Supreme Court. He said after
ward that the interview was most
satisfactory. Justice Hughes was not
urged to accompany the peace ex.
pedtion but Mr. Ford admitted that
he discussed the peace movement
with him.
The chief interest in the days de-
velopments centred in the disclosure
that President Wilson has no informa-
tion which leads him to believe that
the time is ripe for any official step
bv the United States looking TO dis.
cussion of peace terms among the
belligerent nations.
II was said that the President, by
virtue Of confidential information,
considers himself in a better posi-
tion than any private citizen to pass
on the opportuneness OF peace
movement. This disclosure is re-
garded as forecasting a refusal by
the President to participate in the
movement being urged by Mr.. Ford
and the women cooperating with him.

conception of its case against DR..
Karl Buenz and his three fellow Off
cials of the Hamburg American line
was laid bare before Judge Howe and
jury in the United States District
Court where the German subjects
are on trial.
The steamship men are accused OF

days before the German Government
went to war with England and France.
Twelve vessels were chartered by
order OF the Hamburg line
and sailed from New York, Newport
News, Philadelphia, New Orleans and

ment of $150,O00 and two others OF

than ever prevails here, chiefly on
the part OF the British. The landing
OF men is continuous. At a late hour
at night a large detachment OF Scot
tish troops came ashore and Salonlki

ton OF the present French front.
French aviators carried out their
first raid from the French right to
Strumitza town. They dropped near
ly fifty bombs on the town and on
the troops encamped near by.

impression on the Serb line before
Monastir.

ed to be descending toward Uskab,
has changed it's line of retreat, and
now is proceeding in the direction OF

GREECE YIELDS TO ENTENTE.

Salonica (via Pa:is) From a per-

ed that King Constantine has assured
General Kitchener, the British Secre-
tary for War, that he had never con-
sidered disarming or in.erning Entente
Allied troops who might take refuge
on Greek soil, though a number OF
Austrians, including several officers,
are now interned in Greece.
Earl Kitchener, during the confer
ence is reported to have declared that
England will have by next March
100000 soldiers under arms and will
be in a position to arm and provision
100000 Russians, and that conse-
quently it would show great stupidity
to think the war could end otherwise
than in complete defeat for Germany
Respecting the friction which has
arisen between Greece and Great Brit
ain and the coercive measures"
which the British insist do not in any
sense constitute blockade, 1t was
stated the King regards this situation
the result of misunderstanding and
easily remediable.
AS the statements OF the French
and British respecting a serious con-
tinuation OF the Balkan campaign
leave Greece in doubt on this point
IL was said, there is no present possi-
bility either OF the rehabilitation or
withdrawal OF the Greek troops from

recent questions that has come before the people
of the United States for decision formally pre-
scented to them the latter part Of last week when
President Wilson. in speech i'll New York, out
lined his program for increased expenditures for
national defense. PROFESSIONALLY this is to be the
most serious question before the coming congress
For some time past it has occupied public atten-
ton comment and thought in general way now
specific plan is before us. after months of study
by government experts and the leading scientific
minds of the nation, and it is about this plan the
arguments will center.
The situation in the nation appears quite clear.
Leading the one extreme, the peace prOpagandists,
is William Jennings Bryan; leading the other ex-
IRENE, the militarists, is Teodore Roosevelt; be-
tween the two is Woodrow Wilson. Neither ex-
IRENE seems to have won great popularity, while
the trend of the great body Of the people of the
nation appears to have been to the support of the
conservative policy advocated by the president,
conservative that is as to either extreme. The
sanity, the wisdom and the necessity of the presi-
dents program have apparently been generally
accepted.
And the Republicans in congress will join with
the Democrats in putting it through

CITY OFFICIAL PAPER
STANDARDS FIFTY FIFTH BIRTHDAY

Next Wednesday November II, The Washington
Standard will enter upon its fifty fifth year, the
longest record held by any newspaper in the state
and unequalled by few in the Northwest. Novem-
Der II, 1860 when Olympia hardly more than
a struggling village would view it today,
though then the chief city of the territory and
the headquarters of the territorial government,
The Standard was launched by John Miller Muir
ply, who conducted it throughout all the years
until it was taken over by the present manage
ment in August 1912
The Washington Standard is proud Of the rec
ord of the fifty-four years which will be ended
next Tuesday night, and likewise stimulated by it
to further progressive, constructive efforts having
always foremost the interests of Olympia and
Thurston county as only home-owned newspaper
can have. And in the years to come, as Olympia
and its tributary territory move forward with the
growth that is bound to come to this Puget Sound
country, The Washington Standard expects to
move forward, too, aiding always, working always
for that which makes for progress.

Enthusiastic kilograms from the Weyerhaueser
and various large Eastern lumber interests, to-
gether with the rapid spread of ''good times"
throughout the East, the remarkable growth in
bank cearings in twenty-fou cities in as many
different sections Of the United States, and the
generally renewed confidence that is sweeping the
country, are leading Washington lumbermen to
more optimistic views as to their industry and to
general acquiescence in the belief that with the
turn of the year their business will be moving for
ward again as it has not for the last six or eight
years. All the rest Of us join with them in hoping
that their optimism comes true.
