.L0NDONSHOCKED AT WILSON'S QUEST FOR
 TERMS
England and Allies Now Wait
 for Germany to Submit
 Terms, Then They May Sit Around Festive Peace Table
CBy Review Leased Wire)

LONDON, Dec 21.-Absolute and startling surprise was the first feeling in Great Britain aroused by President Wilson's note. The government was surprised and frankly admitted so. The members of parliament were equally surprised when the news was spread through both houses during the morning session.
 Newspaper offices were surprised and the public will be equally sur prised when they read Ambassador Pages statement to the foreign office in the morning papers. All informa- tion from America in the last few days. both in dispatches from the us- ually best informed Washington cor respondents and in addresses to the banking and business firms. has said that the President had no intention of taking any steps toward peace or making any move in European affairs. When he transmitted Germanys note to Great Britain without comment. it was assumed that this action repre- scented his general attitude toward the European situation.
 Want German Terms
 Most of the newspapers commented upon this course with satisfaction. The tenor of their comments tomor- row will be that Premier Lloyd Georges speech and the speeches of the Russian, French and Italian statesmen have affirmed the entente allies position and that unless the German government gives notice of the nature of the proposals which it would bring to a conference the allies cannot accept the invitation to sit around an European council table.

DRUGGISTS WOULD
NOT SELL LIQUOR

Winchester Va, Feb. 6.--Practically
all the druggists in this section of the
State have expressed themselves as
being unalterably opposed to that por-
tlon of the prohibition BILL now before
the Virginia Legislature, which will
permit the sale OF whiskey by prescrip-
ton In drug stores throughout the
State
1t was the opinion OF tn majority
that even If this bill should become
law, the local druggists would not
apply for a license. Such a proceed
ing. they pointed out, would entail
countless annoyances and be highly
Objectionable in every particular.
At it's annual meeting held last
July, the Virginia Pharmaceutical As
ISOLATION, by unanimous vote agreed
to take such action as might be neCes-
sary to prevent the passage Of this bill.
and a committee from the association
was appointed to go before the Legis-
1ature and protest again the enaction
of any such law.

CASE IS INTERESTING
Copy Received AZ Washington and Lee
I'm Attracting Much
Attention. ,. ,

Lexington Va, Feb. ga transcript
of the minutes adopted at the meeting
of the Board of Visitors of the Uni
versity of Alabama, held to investigate
controversy between member of
the faculty of that institution and it's
president. DR.. George H. Denny, who
was president of Washington and Lee
University before going to Alabama.
has been received In Lexington. 1t is
attracting much attention among the
host of friends of Mr.. Denny here.
The action of the Alabama board In
characterlzing the alleged charges as
being without the slightest foundation
in fact. and summarily Diminishing the
professor who made them, is being
warmly commended
In it's finding. the board said: ut
is the sense of this board that the
undignifed. vituperative. inflamma
tory and uncalled for presentation by
Professor Losey of hts view of this
controversy Ia so out of harmony with
the facts themselves. as shown by the
evidence and records presented by him.
and so clearly demonstrative of the
fact that he Ia not temperamentally
HI to serve as a professor or this uni
versity, that this hearing should not
be dignifed by giving to them further
consideration by this board, and that
DIR. Denny to reply to anything pre-
scented by him.
The expression of moral turpitude
and moral unfitness. used by Professor
Losey in the public press in advance
of this hearing and before submitting
the same to any member of this board,
he admite Is his way of referring to
the writings of Dr. Denny on the re-
port card of one of the students to
his parents. q custom DR.. Denny has
had in effect during his entire connec-
ton with the university,
The board renews it's expression of
condence in DR.. Denny and DR.. Barn
well, and again congratulates the State
that the university Is so fortunate as
to retain their services
DR.. Barnwell Is dean of the univer-
sity, and was included by Professor
Losey in his statement.
