The One Assurance.
Charlotte Obseraer,

Charlotte Obseraer.
The best that may be said of
the prospect for peace is t h a t
t he Washington Government,
through which channel the nego.
tiations must pass, will surely be
disposed to take advantage OF
any possible chance the German
overture may afford OF forward
ing the cause OF peace. The OBJ
server has entertained the be-
lief that the rough proposal OF
Germany may have that behind
it which will lead to the stage OF
conference. That much accomp-
lished the reasonable hope might
be entertained that the first ap-
proach on the question of a ter
mination OF the war and the es-
tablishment of peace may happily
materialize. 1t is to be borne in
mind that the terms Germany
purposes to submitare not known
The first object was to secure a
conference. That being done, the
representations of the German
Government would be in order,
and these representations being
made known, the public would be
in better position to speculate
upon the possible success of the
movement or it's futility. Until
what Germany has to say on the
conditions for peace is forthcom.
ing. there is ground forh hope that
tue outcome may be successful.
Neither England nor the United
States at this time has exact
knowledge of what Germany may
propose, and the duty devolves
upon them to await a definite
statement. 1t is for the Allies to
say that they would welcome
this statement, and that benin
done Germany would be atliberty
to go into details OF her PROPOSE
ton. 1t is not a one.sided af.
fGir. Germany could not expect
to demand all, nor could the Al
lies be expected to concede all
that the German initial might
cover. If the German offer SHOULD
prove one whose acceptance could
not be discussed, the peace al
fair would be at an end. On the
contrary, should a conference be
arranged and the.proposals take
a shape.th would engage the
attention of the Allied powers, it
would invite the opening OF a
long course diplomatic take.and-
give in the direction OF a final g.
greement. The German proposal
could not be rejected until sub.
mitted for consideration. Until
this is done, the world must live
in suspense and hopefor the best.
The one assurance is that if, in
the present situation, a prospect
for peace can be befound, thatpros-
pect will not be permitted to fail
unless the Washington Govern
ment itself should fail. However
feeble the prospects might be,
it would receive the earnest at
tention OF q resourceful and pow
erful Nation, one skilled in the
administration OF diplomatic ma
ture, and one whose good Offices
would be welcomed and whose
recommendations would be re.
spected. Once the United States
might be permitted to take a
hand in beinging the warning peo.
pie to terms there certainly would
be ground to hope for a success.
full termination to q proposition
that at first may have looked 90
doubtful.
