Allies May Announce
 Their Terms of Peace
 to Let World Know Objectin Waging War
ENGLAND AWAITING
 ACTION BY WILSON
Eneland's Terms of Peace to Gen. traI PowerS-Lttle Confidence in SettIcment-KaiserR Reported Ready to Announce Parliamentary Form of Government.

London, Dec. 13, 11:35 a. ~m.-Al- though little confidence is shown in London that any result will come from the peace proposals of the Gen. tral powers and the opinion prevails generally that the time is not oppor- tune even to discuss terms there Is thing would be gained by making the world acquainted definitely with the objects of the belligerents.. The atti- tude of the British government tow the house of commons tomorrow, provided sufficient time has elapsed to permit consultation with Great Britain's allies and this statement is awaited with the greatest interest.
 If the press, which supports the ad- ministration, correctly interprets off, cial opinion, little time will be taken up by consideration of the move of Germany and her allies, although the moderate opinon of the country does not favor too nasty rejection of the overtures. It is believed that the German people, once they are ac- Quainted with the. Ententes peace views might be more inclined toward peace, and that for that reason, if for no other, the terms of the entente al lies should be made known officially to the Central Powers.
 The possibility that President Will son will make some suggestions when forwarding the offer also is much discussed. It is intimated that he might at least express willingness to convey the terms of the Entente to the Central powers.
 The report is current here that En- peror William is about to announce the granting of a parliamentary form of government to Germany.
 The indications are that the vari- ous governments of the entente all lies will not act hostilely in making joint response to the peace proposals of the central powers. It was pointed out in well informed quarters today that while each one of the allied gov ernments might indicate it's general attitude, consultation among the al- lies under the treaty binding them to such action propably fill require two or three weeks.
