 Talks of Peace
 ReverentIy.
Recommends That Firm Stand Be Taken But Listen
 To Proposals.

LONDON, Dec. 19.-After Germany's proposals of peace, nearly every news paper commented adversely until An drew Bonar Law, chancellor of the exequer, addressed the house and eau tioned the people to be careful in their expressions. Commenting on his re- marks the next day, the Manchester Guardian said:
 Two things appear to emerge from this brief and dignified statement- first, that the government will not re- fuse 10 consider on their merits any proposals that may be made to them secondly. they will not allow the gen. eral character of the terms on which alone they will consent to conclude peace to remain for moment in doubt That is as it should be-
 The newspaper deplores the attitude of the irresponsible part of the press in flouting proposals which are not yet made.
 Let us be as resolute as the case demands in the terms upon which we deem it necessary to insist, but let it never be said that we refused in mere insolence or levity to listen to the very name of peace"
