DEMANDS BUTTER
INSTEAD OF 0LE0

Mayor Robbins. as he states, may
rot be able to detect the difference be-
tween oleomargerine and butter, relish
ing one as the other, but not so with
Fred II. Cutting of Ft Wayne, who was
in the city today.
Cutting entered north end restau-
rant and was served Oleomargerine,
at once discovering it was not butter.
The law requires that where oleo Is
served sign reading "oleomargerine
served here" must be displayed. Cut
ting states that he looked In vain for
such a sign then demanded butter.
Finally he was presented with a small
roll Of butter-and charged cents for
t..
With blood in his eyes Cutting has
tened to police headquarters to enter
a complaint. He demanded the arrest
of the restaurant keeper on charge
OF violating the oelomargerine law,
stating that he would come to Rich
mond at any time to prosecute the
case. Sergeant McNally referred the
complaint to Food Inspector McKin-
ley for investigation.

fort.
OFFICIALS OBSERVE
DISCREET SILENCE
Berlin Announces Overthrow
of Roumanian and Russian
Resistance Along Jalomitza
River.

Fighting Is continuing on the battle.
field of Europe but interest in the
operations is overshadowed by the
pending peace proposals Of Germany
and her allies.
The proposals are voluminously
commented upon by the press of both
the entente and teutonic allies, but
with the handicap OF lack of definite
knowledge of the terms upon which
Germany and the powers allied with
her are willing to discuss peace. In
general the tone Of the entente press
comment Is not optimistic as to the
probable success Of the overtures.
Military operations within the past
twenty-four hours have developed i'm
portant happenings only In the Rou-
manian area. Here the Teutonic arm
les are continuing their advance in
western Wallachia. Berlin announces
that the Roumanian resistance has
been overcome along the Jalomitza
river where a stand had been made by
the Roumanians, reinforced by Rus
SLAMS. The Roumanian armies are re-
ported again In full retreat to the
northeast, presumably falling back
upon line of the Buzeu, closer to the
Moldavian border.
More than 1000 additional prisoners
were taken by the German armies
yesterday.

LABoRERs TOO SCARCE
FOR PLANTS TO LET
THEM STAY IN JAIL

Newton Pierce, a moulder, also a
former soldier, having served in Cuba,
the Philippines, Alaska and in "every
post in the United States," drew a
fine Of 81 and costs in city court this
morning. Get up here and get me
out" Pierce telephoned to his fore
man and five minutes later the fore
man arrived in an automobile. The
foreman agreed to stay Pierce's fine
but it developed that the foreman was
not property owner. THAT will be
all right, Cap" Pierce remarked to
his boss. "You stay here for me and
I'll go to work" This suggestion did
not appeal to the foreman, who was
finally able to arrange for the factory
management to stay the fine. Factory
men say that workmen are too scarce
to let any of them spend eleven days
in Jail.

WILSON AWAITS
GERMANY NOTE
ON PEACE Terms

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13-Germany's
note proposing peace negotiations to
enemy powers was expected to reach
here today in official textual form
from Charge Grew at Berlin for trans.
mission to each of the entente bellig.
erents to whom it is addressed
After studying 1t President Wilson
will decide whether 1t shall be for
warded without comment or accom-.
panied by some expression by the
United States government.
Extreme delicacy of the situation
it is pointed out, would prevent the
slightest publicity being given to any
possible action by this government
other than perfunctory transmission
of the note through the American am
bassador in each of the countries
addressed.
1t is regarded here as almost Ger.
tain, however, that the president will
take some steps to ascertain definitely
the entente allies attitude toward the
peace movement.

LONDON TIMES
REJECTS TEUTON
PEACE PR0FFER

LONDON, Dec. 13.-The German
peace proposal is emphatically re-
jected by the"Times," which says:
"Germany's proposal bears no rela.
ton whatever to the objects for which
we are fighting. She has been
trying by all the means at her dis
posal to induce us to make the sug-
gestion of mediation. The attempt
has lamentably and conspicuously
failed and, as she does not Judge that
any neutral power could proffer media
ton with much advantage, she falls
back on this indirect offer to the bel
ligerents as pis aller. It is above
all things symptom of her conscious
weakness.

Because the interest on bonds was
cut from four and one half to four
percent on the second reading Of tho

At present all records are complete

propriated for a slanting cement Main

CHEERS GREET
CHANCELLoR'S
PEACE SPEECH

BERLIN, via London, Dec. 13.-The
speech of Chancellor Won Bethmann
Hollweg before the Reichstag today
in which he declared that Germany
was willing to make peace. was not
marked by single expression Of dis
sent while the significant passages
were greeted with hearty bravos and
cheers. 1t was noticeable, however
that Count Friedrich Won Westarp
the conservative leader, and others Of
his following sat silent and unmoved
even when the galleries and newspa
per men joined demonstratively In the
applause.
When the chancellor had concluded
his speech an attempt was made to
force an immediate debate by the an
nexationist block under Major Ernst
Bassermann. leader Of the National
Liberals and Count Westarp, support.
ed by the extreme socialists. This
move was firmly resisted by the lead.
ers of the moderate parties who
agree with the chancellor that a gen.
eral discussion of possible peace con.
ditions, before the attitude of the
enemy powers was made known, could
only injure the cause Of peace and
place Germany at diplomatic disad-
vantage. Their attitude was that if
the central powers exposed all their
cards before peace negotiations be-
gan they would be placed at disad-
vantage.
The indefinite adjournment Of the
reichstag by it's own decision leaves
the government a free hand to con-
duct further negotiations and is re-
garded as tantamount to a vote of
confidence.

DER|S|VE COMMENT
OF FRENCH PAPERS
CREETS PEACE NOTE

PARIS, Dec 13.-The offer of peace
of Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg
Is received with chorus of derision
in the French press. The newspapers
are unanimous that it is an admission
that the situation is getting critical in
Germany and that the chancellor
wants a way out before it is too late
His move is considered to have the ad.
ditional advantage that. in the event of
its failing, it will enable him to throw
the blame for the continuation of the
war on the allies, which he hopes will
have a moral effect on Germany and
the neutral nations.
