PEACE STILL FAR OFF,
SAYS WILLIAM H. TAFT
EX-President Thinks German De-
mands Will Be Too Great

William Howard Taft, at the close OF
an address delivered last night in
Flushing. declared that from what ne
had read of the German peace pro
posals he did not believe there was any
immediate prospect Of cessation Of
hostilities.
There are so many things involved
that / believe peace to be far away al
the present time" Mr. Taft said. "One
Of the most difficult problems rs the
disposition of Poland. Then comes the
disposition Of Belgium and Of Serbia.
The principal difficulties IN the way OF
peace at the present time are the de-
mands of Germany, which will no., to
my belief, be seriously considered BY
all the forces which have combined
against her. There are so many things
that Germany demands. or might de-
mand, il peace conference were called
that real peace at this time IS practi-
cally impossible"

Zimmermann's Prediction
Surprise to Diplomats
Econ The Tribun, Bureau.l

Washington, Dec. 17.-Surprise was
occasioned in Teutonic and Allied
quarters here tonight by the report
that Leopold Zimmerman predicted
peace in ninety days and was offering
exchange payable on Germany at the
end Of that length Of time.
Gle is merely specializing" said
ono Teutonic diplomat. ole has no
official connection, and | do not see
what kind of private advices he could
receive that would make him certain
Of anything. | do not believe any one
in the world knows when peace is
coming, but certainly there is more
knowledge about that in London than
there is in Germany.
Maybe he is acting on something he
knows Of Great Britain's attitude,
though | do not believe Lloyd George
himself knows what will come of the
present peace proposal. am inclined
TO think he is acting on his belief
rather than any knowledge"

British Labor Leaders
Declare for War to Finish

London. Dec. 17.-Lloyds Weekly
News" publishes specially written state
ments on the subject of the German
peace offer by four representative la
Dor leaders. They are Stephen Walsh,
NJ. p. representative Of the Lancashire
miners; James O'Grsdy, chairman OF
the General Federation Of Trades
Unions; c. b. Stanton. NJ. p, for Mer-
tbvr Tydfl. and Lieutenant Colonel
John Ward. commander Of the Navvies
Battalion.
All declare that the war must con-
tinue until the conditions laid down by
Premiers Asquith and Lloyd George are
achieved. but Walsh, in addition, con-
tends that the Entente Allies should
take the opportunity to make their po-
sition clear before the world. He says;
Pending the reception of the Ger
man proposals it would be follish IN
the extreme to treat them as though
they we're only a diplomatic move on
the mart of Germany. Even II they
the Entente powers seize the opportu-
nitv 10 place their case before the
world. They can indicate the terms
upon which they are prepared to nego-
tate a peace. They could inform neu-
trails of their positions.
1T would be an act OF sublime folly
If we were to repeat the mistake Of as
suming that the German offer means
that Germany is rapidly approaching
exhaustion In view of the sufferings
and disasters which have befsllen the
world. the Allied powers should not
take up a merely negative attitude at
the present time. That would be sui
cidal act"
