Bryan May
Become Real
Peace Doue

Washington, Sept. .7.-William
Jennings Bryan announced tonight
that he had taken under advisement
a suggestion from editors Of foreign
language newspapers published in the
United States that he make trip to
Europe as a private peace envoy to
the warning powers.
In a statement to a committee of
the editors, who urged him to under
take the task, Mr.. Bryan indicated
that he might at least visit neutral
European countries in the hope OF
finding their sentiment to aid Ameri-
ca in the maintaining of neutrality
and the prevention OF preparedness
that provokes rather than prevents
war;
Mr.. Bryan's references to military
preparedness attracted attention in
the capital, in view of the possible
effect of his attitude on some ele-
ments in the house when the admins
trations program for strengthening
the national defenses is considered.
Mr.. Bryan said that if he decided to
make the trip, he would not go as a
spokesman of any special group, but
as "a representative of the peace
sentiment of the United States, which
includes the vast majority Of our
pccple."

It is understood, however, that AM

Nevertheless the attitude Of this

London, Sept. 17.-An official &C
count Of the last Zeppelin raid upon
the London district issued tonight for
publication says:
The experience in the raids last
week, combined with German official
reports, demonstrates that command
ers of German aircraft are grossly in
error as to their movements and they
have no means OF estimating the effect
of their promisclous 'bom5ardmelt,
materially or morally.
Damage to Private Property.
In every case where damage has
been caused it was private property
which suffered and, in most cases this
has been of small residential par'..
Almost all of the unfortunate people
who have been killed were non-com-
batants.
No public institution of any kind
was hit nor was any powder station
OF arsenal. No damage was done at
