RUSSIANS FLATLY
TURN DOWN Offer

Petrograd. Dec. 16.--The peace pro.
posal of the central powers is regard
ed by the Russian government as "an
attempt to court public opinion and
encourage the people of Germany by
appearing to put the responsibility
for the continuation of the war upon
the entente allies"
The proposal has been received by
official Petrograd without an atom OF
sympathy. An official of the foreign
office made the following statement.
which has been issued by the semi-of.
fetal Peuograd News agency.
'The new appeal of our enemies ia
not their first attempt. to throw upon
the entente powers the responsibility
for the war they let loose. In order to
obtain the support OF the German peo
pie, who are tired of the war, the
Berlin government many times has
had recourse to fallacious words oi
peace, and has frequently. in order te
animate its troops, offered prospects
of an early peace.
