EARLY Winter Cold
Drops to e Below

A drop of some thirty-odd degrees
met early risers Tuesday morning,
with a moist wind from the northeast.
The thermometer dropped to 2S be-
low at Miller, clear and cold, with
no storm, raising slowly during the
day, but only to repeat again ON
Wednesday morning. The wave pass
ed over the entire country east of the
Rocky Mountains. Eastern states re-
port snow with the cold.
The cold snap and a light covering
of snow causes the familiar squeak
of wagons, and pedestrians display
the northland ginger in step and
movement.

To Show Up Britain
Says German Editor

Washington, Dec. 1S.-That the
German peace proposals are a diplo-
matte master stroke, put out at this
time for the purpose of u%ncovering to
the world the real intentions Of Great
Britain and her allies, is the expressed
belief of DR.. George Barthleme, editor
of the Cologne Gazette, Germany, who
came to this country for the purpose
of studying American politics and
institutions, and was caught and ma
roOned here by the war.
"If Great Britain decides it can still
accomplish, with its allies, the object
for which it entered the war" said
DR.. Barthelme, then the German
peace proposals will be spurned. The
n thing which will cause Great
Briaian to consider those proposals
will be the knowledge that it cannot
gain that object.
Great Britain went into this war to
e~xtinguish a competitor who was so
rapidly winning his way in the arts of
peace that the financial and CONNER
cial supremacy of Great Britain was
threatened.
But if Great Britain should decide
that 1t cannot do this, then we may
expect it to say to Germany: World
peace on land and sea and the preser-
walton of all the rights of all the
smaller nations is what you propose,
is it? Why that is what we propose.
Let us have peace and we will have
peace"

4. SHOT TRAPPED MEN
rAssoeiased Press By Federal wirelss

F.
NEW YORK, N. Y. Feb, lI.--That
the crews Of whatever German sub
marines may be entangled in the steel
nets set by the British navy and
trapped below the surface are killed
by their own officers to avoid the slow
death of suffocation. is the report
brought here by DR.. NJ. S. Inglis, a
Canadian surgeon, connected with the
Canadian Army Medical Service. who
has just returned from England
Doctor Inglis states that he has per
sonally examined the bodies found by
the british in II German submarines,
towed into port as prizes after being
captured in the British nets. In each
case, he says, after the underwater
crafts have been opened. the members
of the crews are found TO be shot. each
seaman with bullet in his brain.
The belief Is that the commanding
officer kills his sailors and subordi-
mates and then commits suicide, &C
cepting this alternative to a slower
but as certain death.
The British are now using glass
bottomed boats in their scouting work
for submarines.
