LONDON, Aug. 1o.-The allies will
fight to the finish, and make peace only
on their own terms.
This Is the general tone of comment
in the British press today on the mess
age sent to the United Press yesterday
by the German chancellor, DR.. Won
Bethmann-Hollweg,r regarding the terms
on which the Kaiser would consent to
peace negotiations.
Bethmann-Ho ollwegs statement was
published in full throughout England.
Newspapers gave it prominent display
some even subordinating the war news
and making the German chancellor g
message the most important news or the
day. The majority of the London papers
In addition, carried lengthy editorial
comments. expressing indignation indignation a, a,
Germany's proposals.
Neutral Opinion Immovable.
The Daily Telegraph, in a column edi.
terial. said in part:
"Bethmann-H Hollweg's formula. In
was Intentionally so conceived as to
cover anything from the lowest
terms Germany considers she could
make without owning herself beaten
to the utmost limits Of extortion.
This will scarcely commend itself to
neutral Influences seeking the basis
for satisfactory action In denn'te
and Just terms.
"Bethmann Honweg's difficulty is
indeed hopeless. He knows neutral
one point. Viz: The REIMBURSEMENT
Of Belgian territory and full COM
pensation to Belgium. He also
knows that the ruling classes In
Germany. especially the military
nf admission
Germany's appalling and ruinous
losses were endured In vain.
THE plain truth is that Germany
cannot PROFOUND any peace terms
allies are fighting to secure justice
liberty and exact retribution. I'm
less Germany will yield these points
voluntarily, the peace she gets IN
the end will be such as seems Just
and polite to her conquerors. The
making of peace overtures Is
hopeless task for a government
which proved to the world that Its
pledged word is a thing of nousht.'

The Times also devoted column OF
editorial to the same theme. remark

SCOOP" said The Times. I'VE haven't
the least doubt that his majesty's
regret at his inability to make per-

newspapers was severe. All he
could do was to order the chancellor

I'VE doubt whether even an i'm

at stake to mistake the attitude of

There is one thing about the main

strange to the traveller. Why is it
that road commissioners do not re-

commissioners to take care of the
holes, gullies and loose stones. Yet
they allow these to remain often
