Matthew Fenzel who has been tele-
graphing out of Stanford for several
years, has just received notice of a
splendid promotion which he is about
to receive, and which will be cause
of pleasure to his many friends here
who have watched his faithfulness

pose to hold Germany responsible for.

terms on which the allies will consent
to talk peace. They win not consent
to the peace conference urged by
Germany At the same time a note
will be sent answering Wilson'S sug-
gestion and emphasizing the import
ance to America of the establishment
of a peace Of such permanence as TO
prevent the recurrence of war.
