WASHINGTON-"Peace in Europe
cannot be reached if the entente is not
willing to forget the past Gtrmany
is now concerned with the future She
is ready to make peace on equitable
terms and meet htr rivals more than
half way
The above statement was made yes
terday by a well known journalist,
who claims to have inside information.
According to this write, there is a
growing belitf here that while the end
of the war probably still is long way
Off there will be continued negotia-
lions from time to time between the
belligerents, undoubtedly participated
in by leading neutrals, including the
United States
Entente diplomatic officials here
while rigidly refraining from state
ments for publication, insisttd that if
Germany shall define the concessions
she is ready to make to end the war,
her position will have careful consid-
Grafton.
The next sttp will be Germany's, so
soon as the formal reply of the al
lies, which will be along the lines COW
cred by Lloyd George in his speech
recently, rtaches Berlin. Diplomatic
circles which enjoy the confidence of
the TeutOnic representatives were pos
tive today that the central powers
will try to eet the British position.
Germany, these diplomats say, is will
ing to go far to restore peace. She is
willing, it is believed.
l. To guarantee the future of her
enemies will do so. This guarantee
undoubtedly would take the form of
partial disarmament and the creation
of league of nations to compel peace
through an international court.

burg and very likely consent to the
restoration of Serbia and Montenegro
If a peace conference should decide
such action wise.
3. Use her influence to permit Italy
10 retain the territory captured by it |
during the present war from Austria
4. Agree to a withdrawal from
France and Belgium if absolutely qua
ranteed that the entente will itself
agree to peace conference which will
be given complete authority to end the
war.
1t can be stated on authority that
Germany does not believe that the |
territorial status of 1914 furnishes
real basis for peace. The contrary is |
the case. The Balkans must be recog-
nized, the Germans believe, so that
their position as the "firebrands Of
Europe" will be eliminated
To the entente demand for indemni-
ties for France and other nations-eV- |
cept Belgium and Luxemburg-Gei e
many is expected to interpose demands
for indemnity for the overrunning Of |
east Prussia, while Austro-Hungary
will ask recompense for invasion by
Russia. 1t admittedly is the Gerban |
belief that if a peace conference can
be arranged, that the question of in
demnity eventually will be dropped by
both sides excepting that for Belgium.
