ENGLAND TURNS
DOWN PEACE OFFER
Peace is Impossible Without
ReparatiOn.
DECLARES BRITISH PREMIER
Will Await Terms and Guarantees
Surer Than Those Germany Broke,
Says Premier-Urges the People
To Make Greater Sacrifices.

London.-The announcement in the
House of Commons by David Lloyd
George, the new prime minister, that
the first act of his administration was
the rejection Of the proposal OF the
Central Powers for peace conference
constituted one of the most momentous
scenes which the Oldest parliamentary
veterans had ever witnessed.
The offer of Germany and her Allies
to discuss peace will amount to naugnt
unless they submit to the Entente
Allies their terms, and these must
embrace nothing short of complete
restitution, full reparation and eff
fectual guarantees for peace in the
future"
Failure by the Teutonic Allies to
give such a peace as is required will
mean the utmost prosecution of the
war.
David Lloyd-George, the new British
prime minister, has so told the House
of Commons, while in the House OF
Lords his words were re-echoed by
Earl Curzon of Kedleston, member OF
the prime minister's war council.
The Prime Minister said the Ger
man Chancellor had made no proposal
and that for Great Britain to enter
upon peace discussions without
knowledge of what Germany proposed
to offer would be Ito put our heads
into moose with the rope end in the
hands of Germany"
Almost simultaneously with the an
nouncement in the British Parliament
the French Chamber Of Deputies was
told by Premier BRAND that the En-
tente Allies would send concerted
reply to the Teutonic Allies that it
was impossible to take their request
for peace seriously" while the Rus
sian Council of the Empire adopted an
"order of the day unanimously in favor
of refusing to enter under present con-
ditions into any peace negotiations
with Germany"

COUNTER PROPOSAL
SENT TO CARRANzA
U. S. Viii! Not Modify Plan OF
Withdrawal.
RATIFICATION IS EXPECTED
Mexican Representatives Confident
That At Resumption OF Sessions
Other Details Of Broader
Scope Will Be Discussed.

delphia-Secretary of Interior
Lane and his colleagues on the Next
can-American joint commission placed
upon General Carranza the RESPONSE
bility Of deciding whether the Amer1.
can government should continue its ef-
forts to effect satisfactory and am
icable adjustment of the questions af-
fecting the relations of the two coun-
tries and then adjourned until after
the holidays. Through his represen-
tatives on the commission they sent to
him communication further explain
ing the position of the United States
government and containing protesta-
lions that there exists no intention to
violate the sovereignty of Mexico. It
was made clear, however, that there
can be no modification of the condi-
lions on which the American troops
will be withdrawn from Mexico and
that the attitude of the government as
outlined in the declaration of policy
made by Secretary Lane when the
protocol was signed at Atlantic City
has not been altered.
A Terse Message.
The communication was tense, but
studious care had been exercised to
keep out Of the document any phrase
ology that might give offense to the
Mexican executive. 1t was not more
than $50 words in length. 1t was
handed to the Mexican representative
in joint session, and transmitted by
them almost Immediately to Quere-
taro. where it is expected it will be
given prompt consideration by Cen
eral Carranza. 1t was cabled and a
copy sent by mail.
The message of the Americans was
in reply to that presented by the Next
cans when they recOnvened here. The
communication Of the Mexicans was not
signed by Mr.. Carranza, but his spokes-
men made it clear that it was an
authorized statement OF his attitude,
and the reply given by the Americans
is understood to have been addressed
to the Mexican commissioners, al
though intended for their executive.
Neither the American nor the Mexi-
can commissioners appeared pessi.
mistic in their contemplation of the
future. The Americans insisted that
they had asked Carranza to sign moth
ing that would impair his dignity or
that would be incompatible with the
ideals of his government. The Mexi-
cans appeared almost equally confident
that ratification of the protocol would
be withheld no longer and that shortly
after the beginning Of the new year
they would be discussing with the
American commissioners those Ques-
lions in which both nations are inter-
ested and which are not covered in the
brief agreement whose ratification is
being awaited.
1t was not decided where the COM
missioners would reconvene in the
event Carranza approved the protocol.
but it appeared almost certain that
the future sessions would be in New
York. 1t was believed by the Next
cans that they would receive from Car
rama within a week or 10 days his
answer and that the conference might
be resumed not later than January 2.

UNITED STATES
AS WORLD BANKER
Reserve Board Takes First Step
in Foreign Trade Plan.
BANK OF ENGLAND AGENT
If Experiment Works Out Satissac-
torily, other Foreign Govern
ment Banks viii Be
Added.

Washington.-The Government took
it's first formal step, through the Fed
eral Reserve Board, looking to the
establishment of financial connections
abroad through which it hopes to
strengthen the position of the Unitea
States as world banker, and to main
tain the American dollar as the stand
ard of exchange.
Under a section of the Federal Re
serve act the board authorized the ap-
pointment of the Bank of England as
foreign correspondent of the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York, and an
nounced that the II other reserve
banks might participate in the agency
relations.
Connections with other foreign gov
ernmental institutions, such as the
Bank of France, is foreshadowed, OH
Gals say, by this action. The Bank
of England is the first foreign CORE
spondent whose appointment has been
authorized since the operation of the
new financial system in this country.
Board Issues Statement.
In its statement announcing the &C
ton, the board said:
'The Federal Reserve Board has au-
thorized the Federal Reserve Bank or
New York to appoint as one of its
foreign correspondents and agents the
Bank of England, of London, England,
under the terms of the Federal Re-
serve act.
Section IA of the act permits any
Federal reserve bank with the consent
of the Federal Reserve Board to open
and maintain banking accounts in for
eign countries, appoint correspondents
and establish agencies in such coun-
tries wheresoever it may deem proper
for the purpose of selling and collect
ing bills of exchange, and to buy and
sell with or without Endorsement
through such correspondents or
agencies bills of exchange arising out
of actual commercial transactions, SO
that a broad field of operation is pos
sible under it.
"In granting the authority to estaD-
fish this agency the board has author
lied the Federal Reserve Bank of New
York to maintain accounts either for
or with the Bank of England, so that
operations both in England and in the
United States are possible.
"Other Federal reserve banks may
participate in the agncy relationship
with the Bank of England upon the
same terms and conditions that will
govern the Federal reserve bank OF
New York if they so desire"
Part Of Genera: Plans.
In addition to being the first step by
the Government toward going after
foreign business, it is understood that
authorization of this appointment is
part of general plans for establishing
financial connections that win
strengthen the United States as a
creditor nation in the commercial COM
petition which probably will result
when the war closes. and to provide o
ready means to Offset any tendency on
the part of foreign bankers to with
draw the huge supply of gold accu-
mulated here during the war
The action marks radical depar-
ture from the previous financial policy
of the country, inasmuch as it places
the Governments of the United States
and Great Britain for the first time In
indirect continual financial relation
ship.
