 An Overseas News Agency dispatch says that the Socialist members of the Reiehstag and their party board have passed separate resolutions in which annexations by either side to present conflict are deplored and rec ommemds the following stipulations:
 For the protection of her econo- mic development Germany demands the open door idea, equal rights for all in all colonies, most favored nation clause in peace articles. tine ahoIishment of customs and traffic restrictions so far as possible, equali ration and improvement of social in stitutions for the welfare of the work ing populations in all countries, guarantee of the freedom of the oc- cans by international treaties and the internationalizing of all important sea highways Efforts directed toward the destruction and dismemberment of Austria anu Turkey are declared to he against Germany's interests anu are unacceptable"
 Frederick R. coudert,. the New York lawyer, who has been confer ring for some time with public men in 6iFeat Britain and France, said re- aeutlv in Paris:
 ''I am somewhat surprised to learn what tremendous importance English and French officials attach to tha severance of diplomatic relations tween the United States and Ger many. They do not expect the former to make war, but they are convinced that the rupture of diplomatic rela- tions would lead first to Germany's moral isolation. with vast effect the remaining small neutrals, and see ond to an increase of the economic pressure On Germany. because the con sequences of the rupture would be suspension of the commercial relations and cutting off of German ereai. They are. therefore convinced thar such action by America would ulti mately prove se decisive factor Of the war"

Each year seems to give the auto
mobile a new hold on life. The war
brought 1t to the forefront in a new
field. The soldier of the present day
seldom makes long forced marches
like Sherman's march to the sea. He
travels by motor car. AS a result, the
automobile casualty list is tremen-
dous; the average life of a car in the
battle line is estimated at thirty days.
But it is not only the war zone that
has lost part of its picturesqueness
through the use of the automobile.
The latter has begun to rob the an
nual cattle roundup of some of its
thrills by replacing the horse. This
year has seen the ubiquitous car with
a cowboy at its wheel on our western
prairies, dis%couraging the cattle from.
attempts to escape from the ever-nar-
rowing circle in the roundup. Many a
steer which has given a COW horse a
run must feel disconnected when 1t
bucks up against the four-wheeled
steed.-Wall Street Journal,
