EENlNl i ONlAL LlINEO-
Washington, Dec. 12.-Germany's
peace proposals, according to Ger
man embassy official, will include
suggestion that the territorial status
of the nations engaged be returned
practically" to what it was before
the war started.
The exemptions are established
of Independent kingdoms of Poland
and Lithuania and some readjust--
ment of International boundaries in
the Balkans.
The peace terms, the United Press
informant said, include the evacua-
ton of Northern France, restoration
of the kingdom of Belgium, at least
a partial restoration Of Serbia and
Rumania, and the return to Germany
of her lost colonies.
The factors which are said to have
led to the German peace proposals at
this time are:
The favorable military position Of
the central powers.
The fact that the winter at hand
will necessitate cessation OF hard
fighting for three months.
A desire to Smoke out" the allies
to announce just what they are fight,
ing for.
Desire to convince the world and
the German people wherever they
are that Germany is not fighting a
war of territorial conquest, and de-
sire, if war continues, to let the world
know Germany will not be response
BILE for further blOOdshed.
The peace terms outlined, the Ger
man official intimated, are not neces-
sarily Germany's final proposition.
''The imDOrtant question is to find
out whether the allies will talk
peace" said this official.
Berlin, via SayVille Wireless, Dec.

ALLIES COLD TO-IDEA
Chancellor Won Bethmann-Holl-
veg called the diplomatic representa-
tives of the United States, Spain and
Switzerland to his Office, one after
the other and handed this note to
them.
The chancellor asked the neutral
nations which represent Germany
and her allied powers at the capitals
of the nations with which she is at
war to bring these proposals to the
attention of Germany's enemies.
The propositions which Germany
advances in these negotiations are,
according to Germany's belief, ap-
propriate for the establishment Of
lasting peace.
The governments at Vienna, Con-
stantinople and Sofia transmitted
identical notes.
The text was also communicated
to the vatican at Rome and to all
other neutral powers.
London, Dec. 12.-Admittedly the
greatest lettering force from the
British, standpoint to favorable re-
ceptfon of German peace proposals is
Lloyd-GeOrge. The idea was general
that the British would not consent
to cessation of hostilities at this time,
with their political house just put in
order and their organization for
major effort still untried. 1t is recog-
nized that as yet but half of the full
military strength of the British has
been tested under fire.
The fact that at the moment of
Germany's proposal France was also
in the midst of a complete Teorgani-
zatiOn calculated to give her new
strength is also counted on to dis
count probabilities of Bethmann-
Hollweg's proposal finding favor in
France.

Sssng/ hEDEARHo1 NO DIRECTOR O
NURSING OFFERS CAREER.

On more than one occasion during
the past year private duty trained nurses have
been unattainable in any part of the state. The
shortage, furthermore, was not confined to
Wisconsin. Chicago, similarly hard pressed
for proper attendants for it's sick, has applied to
Milwaukee regstries for assistance. This stu
alton offers properly qualified young women
extraordinary opportunities for entrance into
one of the noblest of professions and assurance
of good earnings after graduation.
Several factors have combined to
create the demand for nu' ses which is in excess
of the supply. First of all, there is growing
appreciation on the part of the public of the
greater comfort, safety and increased life and
health assurance that competent nurse offers
to individuals and families afflicted by illness.
Second, nurses, physicians hospitals and the
employing public are all demanding higher
type of woman as the calling is being placed on
an increasingly higher professional basis.
Third, i'm ustries, health departments, school
boards, and various social service agencies are
constantly Offering Inducements to especially
we'll qualified nurses to enter public service.
Lastly, the in Europe has called many
American nurses into service abroad
Excepting the last, the above named
factors, which are producing demand in
excess of the visible supply, will be lasting,
increasing rather than decreasing in opportun-
tiles. 1t is. therefore, with more than ordinary
assurance that this article is addressed primari
ly to the best of the young women who are
graduating from high schools and college, and
who need or desire a self supporting career.
Short as is the supply of good nurses,
there is no need or any great oppo1 tunities
ahead for poorly qualified and poorly trained
ones. The first requirement of good nurse is
tempermenta and not sentimental fitness. The
next is personality and brains. The third is
good training which means abundant oppor-
tunity to learn by observation and through
sufficiently systematic and we'll adapted in
struction by skllful teachers. Such training is
available in many hospital training schools;
but it should not be assumed that all hospital
| training schools offer the pupil nurse what she
has a right to expect in return for the service
she renders the hospital during her period of
training. 1t must be confessed that some so
called schools are organized solely for the pur
