 It is known that Germa high off cials have been discussing with Am bassador Gerard the possibility of President Wilson's consent to act as intermediary for long time. Furth- ermore, it is believed that some inti- nation as to the presidents favorable attitude must have reached Berlin, else the present mission would not have advanced as far as it has.
 E. As-is- customary when great diplo- matte affairs are being forwarded not }hc slightest intimation of what Ger m4nys proposals are to be has been allowed 10 leak out.
