The comments OF the entente press
on the German peace overtures are OF
cynical nature and do not Indicate any
degree of enthusiasm over the olive
branch tentatively extended by the
Central PoMers. 1t will not do TO say,
however, that the allies will probably
reject the offer OF peace. There is
ground for hope that something tang
ible in the direction of peace may come
out OF the German nations offer.
We are not in sympathy with those
editorial councillors who, from the
comfortable AMI safe vantage point OF
their swivel chairs, advise the entente
allies to reject Germany's peace offer
With scorn and fight on until the Ger
mans bite the dust. We may not be
quite as sure as Ben Franklin was that
there never was a good war nor bad
peace, but we do believe that this war
has run long enough, and that nothing
is TO be gained by its continuance that
will begin TO compensate for the blood
that has already drenched Europe, TO
say nothing Of that which must yet be
poured out if it is to be war of eXter.
mination. Perhaps in time the allies
will be able TO wear the Germans out
and make peace in terms Of the con
querer to the conqured, but there is
nothing in the two-and.a-half years OF
war that have passed to indicate that
by that time the allies will not also be
so worn out that their victory will be
of small consequence to them.
We are not much impressed with the
expressed fear that peace negotiated
at this time would be !ncOncusive. We
cannot believe that the German people
or any other people Will again permit
themselves TO be drawn into such a
conflict. We believe that this war
marks the end OF such Titanic struggles.
We believe that in self preservation
the powers Of the earth will form such
league TO enforce peace as President
Wilson has Endorsed, and that any ma
ton which in future dares to attempt TO
precipitate such war as Europe has
suffered will have the whole civilized
world to answer to.
There must be in the entente nations,
as there certainly is in the German ma.
tions, a strong undercurrent Of senti.
ment for peace "a deepseated feeling
that this waste and want, this death
and suffering, this debace OF destruc-
tisn, this useless sacrifice Of all the fine
things Of civilization and OF Christian
ity, is stupid and criminal, and should
be stopped. True, this feeling is not
voiced by the English and French
press-censorship probably would not
permit it to be--but we believe that it
exists nevertheless and that it will
make itself felt. Certainly this gov.
eminent and people should do all that
we may properly do TO advance the
cause OF peace and to end u struggle
the continuance OF which can only add
more want, more horror, more sorrow
TO human beings whose cup of bitter
ness is already filed to Overlooking,

"For two years and half" said the
German Chancellor in his address TO
the Rechstag, "a terrible war has been
devastating the European continent.
Unlimited treasures Of civilization have
been destroyed. Extensive areas have
been soaked with blood Millions Of
brave soldiers have fallen in battle and
millions.haye returned home as inyaids.
Grief and sorrow fiji almost every
house. Not only upon the belligerent
nations but also upon neutrnls the des.

OF peace, have been depressed, The

was devoted to the propagation for SO

Every word OF that Is true. And
