Germany Sounds Neutral Press.

BERLIN, Wednesday. December 10, by
wireless to the Associated Press. via
Sayville, December 16 delayed in trans
mission).-A military official who is
frankly and keenly hopeful that some way
may be found to end the war, though he
is none too optimistic at the present, to-
day called together representatives of the
neutral press to inquire as to the prob
able effect of the German peace note in
neutral countries
Discussing the possibility that all peace
propositions may be rejected at present,
this officer declared Germany was aware
the French and British would make
another herculean effort in the west next
spring-an effort for which Germany
would be fully prepared He expressed
the opinion that it could not have any
result other than continued slaughter and
that it would have no more prospects of
success than the Somme offensive.
In the meantime, this officer continued,
Germany would not give Russia time to
recuperate. as happened a year ago. He
said Germany was in position today to
force Russia to make peace and that she
surely would do so if the peace overtures
were rejected. He asserted Russia was
known to Germany to be exhausted in a
military and economic sense.

Whether any suggestion or offer to
