was kept up that the American pro-
posals were an unfriendly attempt to
snatch the prize of victory from the
German people, but this clearly is not
at all the view of the German govern
ment, which sees in it a welcome op-
portunity to improve the occasion and
at the same time push forward its own
proposal for stopping the war. Presi-
dent Wilson is not to- blame for this,
and we should be very unwise to rush
to the conclusion that he expected to
receive this answer and was to that

Germans"

opposing any change in that section of

majority report declared that birth
control was not "a question of state

Nevertheless, the allied governments
would reply with all possible fullness.
They would reiterate. NJ. Pokrovski
said. that they would continue the war

RUSSIA STANDING FIRM
WITH ALLIES IN WAR
Foreign Minister Says Mr.. Wilson's S
Note Cannot Alter Politi-
cal Situation.

| By the Associated Press
LONDON. December 27.-The Rus
sian foreign minister. NJ. Pokrovski. in
vited the representatives of the press
at Petrograd Monday to an interview.
at which he outlined his program and
his ideas in regard to the present po-
litical situation. Reuters Petrograd
correspondent says that in general this
ministerial declaration. which seems to
have been meant to take the place of
the usual speech before parliament, con-
sisted of a few clear propositions. First
there has been change in the reIa-
tions between Russia and her allies
Second, the minister declared. with firm
assurance that after the war the mill
tary alliance of France. England and
Russia would be consolidated in close
economic union.
Third. the war will be continued ac-
cording to this declaration, until a de-
CiSiVe victory has been won. NJ. Pok-
rovski then discussed the three great
questions of the day-the German peace
proposals. President Wilson's note and
the attitude of Greece.
Appreciates MI. Wilson's Motives.
After recalling the recent duma dec
lara ations in regard to the German peace
note. NJ. Pokrovski passed to the action
of President Wilson, saying Russia ap-
preciated highly the good will and the
lofty. humane motives of the Presi-
dents note but he declared it could
alter in no way the political situation
created by the false and hypocritical
moves of the Berlin government
AS the note coincided with the Ger
man proposals, he said. the ideas of
the Russian government in regard to
Mr.. Wilson's action were almost analo-
gous with with those which had been
set forth by the Russian press: that is
to say, the governments attitude in re-

Initiative for Germany.

The German government can scarce
ly he so naive as to suppose the allied
governments would suspend hostilities
or enter into q conference with an
enemy who has just proclaimed him
self the victor with out knowing. even
through the usual indirect channels,
what he was going to propose.
1t is Germany who proposed the nego-
Nations. 1t is Germany who considers
'erself to he in the superior position
1t is Germany who wants to stop the
war. Therefore it must be for her. as
the initiator of the proceedings to de-
fine in general terms the basis on
which she proposes TO negotiate.
There apparently are many misun-
derStandingS. both here and in Amer
iCa, about President Wilson'S inten-
tions. and that makes it the more i'm
portant that We should make our oWp
position plain. We hope. therefore,
that our reply to the American note
will be a careful and well reasoned
statement of the position as we un-
derstand it. and not q mere hasty dis
miSsal of the American note as if it
were ultra wires The United States
is deeply concerned in the European
struggle. and has a hundred good rea-
sons to desire peace, but it should not
be difficult to make her see that a
patChed-up truce would be as
little to her interests as to ours"
Imperial Conference Plans.
1t is coincidence that Great Britains
invitation to the Dominion premiers to at
tend war conference not later than
February to consider questions affecting
the prosecution of the war forms the main
feature of the morning papers. AS it is
apparent that no important decision af
fecting the conditions under which the
war can be terminated by the allies is
likely to be taken until the conference. it
may be assumed, apart from any other
considerations. that Germany's suggestion
for an immediate exchange of views prob
ably will not materialize.
The Daily Telegraph, commenting on
the imperial conference, says: THE al
lies are very far from committing the
mistake of not considering among them
selves the conditions of peace, for which
they propose to obtain the only effectual
guarantee These delibera tions are not
have not willed to have a premature
peace and We do not mean to have it.
Our enemies have willed such a
peace and are making every possible eff
fort TO force one. as the only alternative

arm any of their intended victims by mill
tary means; certainly they will not do so
by the exercise of diplomacy

EVASION OF ISSUE
But British Newspapers See in
1t an Eagerness to End
the War.
TERMS FIRST, THEY INSIST
Nv the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON. December -. 1920 p.mt-
The promptness of the German govern
ment's reply to President Wilson's note
is characterized by the evening news
papers today as the evidence of Ger
many's eagerness to bring the war to
an end The Standard says:
1T would be a mistake to neglect
the German peace maneuvers. but 1t
would be even more fatal to waste time
over them. We trust the government
will give President Wilson a perfectly
courteous but also a definite reply, and
then go on with the war as energeti-
cally as possible"
Wilson Note "Misrepresented."
The Evening Star says:
Germany has replied in hot haste.
She is working the Wilson note for all
1t is worth. She is trying to make
peace by wireless. The contrast be-
tween her painting precipitancy and the
allies leisurely langour is great.
There is grave. urgent need for cool
wisdom and bold leadership IN the CIR
cumStances. We note with alarm the
growing disposition in certain quarters
to make bad blood between the British
and American. people. That is playing
the German game and must be stopped
dead. There must be no mercy for lu-
natics who are ready to poison Anglo
American relationships. Let us make
a stand against the colossal ineptitude
of misrepresenting and misunderstand
ing President Wilson's note.
Quick to Seize Advantage.
The Pail Mall Gazette says:
I,
the advantages given her by President
Wilson's mafadroit diplomacy. 1t
would be a real triumph for Germany
to have herself recognized as the wire
puller of the power whose subjects her
submarines drowned with impunity and
which lectured her in the name of all
the cardinal virtues. 1t would teach
the world that by letting the Ameri-
cans DO the talking Germany under
stands how to get her own way even
tually in the sphere of practical poll
ttics.
The studied impartiaiity of the
American note supplied Germany with a
coat of whitewash of which she was
badly in need Germany pro-
poses an immediate conference of bel
Hgerents. which appears to her to be
the most promising way of promoting
a fssure in the entente. The allies
have only one possible attitude to
this: namely, they will hold no dis
cussion with an -unpunished criminal
or with power whose most solemn
engagements are mere scraps of pa
per If Mr.. Wilson's real object was
to elicit plain statement of the aims
and terms of both sides Beriin's ar
swer shows that he failed.
1T did not require note to procure
q plain statement of the allied cause.
Upon the German side the invitation
meets with summary dismissal. The
ill-conceiyed note has been frustrated
and the most dignified course now
would be its frank withdrawal"

A NUMBER OF POOR TO ASK

Shoes, clothing and bedding are

ton Army headquarters that the sup
ply of these articles was soon ex-
hausted yesterday. Now, the Army

clothes or bedding, to either send it
to the headquarters, or let it be known
where the articles may be obtained,
and a messenger will be sent for any
thing offered.
Ensign Aughenbaugh last night
stated that he is particularly in need
of q pair of shoes for an aged man,
who has felt the cold keenly because
of the worn shoes he possessed.

this line which they desire to be
worthi1y bestowed, the Salvation

Every citizen, irrespective Of
whether or not he is a member of the

show activity if the advantage given
by Admiral Stanford's testimony is
to be followed up and Pensacola ben
Gifted. Every port on the gulf coast
Including Mobile, most Of them with
representatives in Washington put
ting the advantages of their respec-
tive ports. Pensacola, ON the other
hand, has taken no steps, but it is
now essential that something be done
at once and for this reason general
meeting OF citizens has been called.
If the proper steps are taken Pen
sacola has better chance than any
other gulf port to secure a frst-class
navy yard and a craving dock.
In addition to the navy yard mat
ter officers to serve during 1916 are
to be elected.

MUCH SUFFERING AMONG
THE POOR IN KANSAS CITY

Kansas City, Mo-, Jan. lathe
third day of the cold wave in the
southwest dawned today with no
prospect of immediate relief. AS a
result, the poor of many cities were
faced with the likelihood of cold and
hunger as their small stores of fuel
and provisions came to an end. Char
ity organizations we're overwhelmed
with calls for aid and appeals for
funds to relieve the destitute were is
sued here.
While slightly moderating tempera-
lures were predicted for today, there
was no expectation of general relief
from the cold before the end of the
week. Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Mis-
souri, and Oklahoma slept last night
with the mercury still depressed be-
low the zero mark. A temperature
of minus-seven was recorded today in
Kansas City at 2 a. m.
The Missouri river was frozen over
near Leavenworth, Kas., for the first
time in three years.

afternoon at the Y. M. G. A. at 3:15.
All four teams of the league will play
and from the material selected there
should be fast games. The Cubs VS..

winning combination or MS team and
is confident of a victory the first day.
This league is made up of the

with good material every year. The
games in previous years have always
been interesting and this years line
up should prove no exception.

this thought becomes the ruling pas
