GOES TO ALL ALLIES

LONDON, Dec. 29.-The Enten-

 peace proposals was completed to- day, according to an official an- nouncement made by Prime Mini ster David Lloyd George and Chan cellor of the Exchequer A. Bonar Law. This note could go forward today or tomorrow except for the reason of the necessary formality of transmitting it to Italy, Russia and France particularly. The British government desires that all points of the reply be discussed and ap- proved by the Allies before final delivery is made.

 No information was given out re- garding just what the reply carries but it is known that complete re- paration and guarantee for the fu- ture are undoubtedly stated in no uncertain terms.
