WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Presi-
dent Wilson has decided that the
notes of the central powers proposing
discussion of peace to the entente
allies will be sent forward by the
American government, acting as in
termediary without any accompany
ing mediation offer of its own. He
has not determined whether any &C
tion in behalf of peace will be taken
later by the United States on itf
own account, but is holding himself
in readiness to serve in any way
possible towards bringing the war
ring nations together.
Count Won Bernstorff called today
and said he had not discussed peace
terms with Lansing. "All Germany
suggested was that the belligerents
get together for a talk and. If they
accepted definitely, terms would natu.
rally be discussed"
The delay in forwarding the notes
to the entente capitals was due to
the fact that the messages received
from Germany, Austria-Hungary and
Turkey, identical in substance. diff
fered slightly in phraseology as a
result of different translations.
