PARIS, Sept. 17.-France sees no
prospects Of an early peace, despite
the mounting cost Of war. BY pass
ing today the governments bill call

colors, parliament will serve notice
on Germany that this Is to be Il

Government officials. members OF
the chamber of deputies and lead
ers in the public life OF France to-
day gave hearty Endorsement TO the
speech of Premier Asquith in the
British house of commons on We'd
nesday. Asquith's view that this
world war is a gigantic battle OF
resources finds approval here. Re
cent developments, including Ger
many's failure to crush the Russian
armies, convinces the French that
the tide is about TO turn.
The class of 1917, summoned TO
training by the provisions of the bill
the chamber Is expected 10 pass
today. cannot reach the trenches
before next May or June at the
earliest, indicating the belief in of
fetal circles that the war will last
at least another year. Though II
was stated in parliament that five
months training will be required for
these 1S-yoar-old youths. II is gen.
orally understood that their drill
will extend over a longer period and
that they probably Will not be
called upon to face fire for nearly
year.
