Important Question as TO What
the President Should Do in
Transmitting Note.
MAY MAKE EXPRESSION
Wants TO Do Something That
Will Prevent Rejection with

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14--The note
conveying the proposal for peace by
the Central powers. which the United
States Is to transmit to the Entente
belIigerents. arrived during the night
and was being prepared for President
Wilson early Thursday.
The actual transmitta1 of the peace
prefer now brings up the important
question of whether President Wilson
will decide to act merely as an inter
mediary or whether he will accom-
pany the transmittal with some ex-
preston of hope in some form that
the proposals for consideration OF
peace shall not be rejected without
examination and reflection. There is
Il prevailing opinion here that the
president wants to do something OF
the sort and is looking forward to
some movement for a league of ma
tions to preserve peace as one Of the
elements OF the settlement of the
war.
After reading the German note
carefully Secretary Lansing said that
while there were some differences In
translation when compared with the
unofficial copy and while the order OF
arrangement Of some Of the para
graphs was a little different, there
was absolutely no change in meaning
Mr.. Lansing said the note would &C
forward to the belligerents presume
bly, today and thar no decision hac
been reached as % whether the United
States would accompany 1t with any
expression.
The German note was the only one
to arrive. Nothing has been hearc
of the communications from Austria
Bulgaria or Turkey.

.ADE0 UATE PREPARATION
FORsPASTsl is REQUIRED.

A LONDON, Dec a Andrew Bona1'
Law. chancellor OF the exchequer, said
in the House OF Commons Thursday
that no proposals for peace had YET
been received by the British govern
ment from the Central powers. He
added that the Entente Allies required
adequate reparation for the past and
adequate security for the future.
Mr. Law said the daily average ex-
penditure OF England in the war had
risen to 5.710.0O0 pounds, and the act
ual expenditure had exceeded the estI-
mate owing to the increase in nlunt-
tions and additional loans to Great
Britain's loans and to its dominions.
