 MAXINlALISTS FOR PEACE TERMS
(Aes0c,a,eI prpSSl

PETROGRAD, Nov. 19,-The peace plans of the Bolshevikis have been given a severe jolt. according to statements appearing in most of the leading newspapers of this city to- night It is declared that the Ger man emperor has absolutely refused to consider any armistice or to treat for peace with the soldiers and workmen's government.
 This stand of the German govern ment is taken in response to the re cent proposal of the Bolshevikis for peace negotiations with Germany. The kaiser is said to have based his refusal on the ground that the present Russian government is not legal one and that it's acts cannot be considered binding He is said to have stated that he will not enter into negotiations of any form eX- cept with the legal successor to the late Romanoff government or with d constituent assembly which has been accepted by the people.
 The Bolsheviki leaders declare that the setback is only temporary, as their plans call for an election by the people and that the present lead CTS will retain their positions until duly elected successors have been elected or they themselves are re- turned to office by the will of the majority.

RAILROAD STRIKE IS PROBABLY
 INVERTED UNTIL AFTER THE WAR
{ \ SSOriate6 PreSSl

WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 19.- 1t is the opinion of the government that the threatened general strike of the four big railroad brotherhoods nas been averted, at least until af- Ger the end of the war. The brother hood leaders today agreed to medi- ate all their recent demands, includ- ing the question of wages. This is be ueved to assure the lmpossibility o1 strike.
 However, If in spite of this, a .oreseen circumstance, the managers Jf all American railroads have de cided that they will place the in erests of these roads in the hands jf President Wilson with instruc- ions to act entirely as he thinks pest for the protection, first of the country by preventing any interrup- ions of transportation, and last for he protection of the interests of the railroads themselves.
 The managers declare that they nave perfect confidence both in the Presidents judgment and his fair nindedness, and that any decision he may make should such crisis be produced will be strictly adhered to by every road affected
 It is not now thought that the oc- casion for such action will arise, as here does not seem to be any doubt nat a board of mediators will be
 ble to affect an amicable settle ment.

KNITTING
FOR SOLDIERS

Hear the clicking of the needles.
See the busy women, young ladies
and older ones as they skillfully move
the yarn into compact mass and as
the work continues, and the formation
is outlined, one can see the shaping up
of sweater, pair of socks, or some
other article for the soldiers.
Knitting, knitting. everywhere. In
the trolley cars, on the trains, boating
along the Raceway, between the acts
in the theatres. everywhere the busy
knitting is being pushed and much is
to be accomplished.
The soldier boys who will be in
France this winter will send the sweat
ers and other warm wooden goods, and
they will be appreciated by the soldiers
when the cold weather comes along.

guard, now completely in the federal
service, will be raised, equipped and

This became known today. when Gov

OF the conference which he held here
yesterday with military heads of the
state.
information which was sent to Col
onel Robert L. Patterson, the inspec-
tor-general, from all parts of the state
shows that WITH the exception Of
Hudson and Middlesex counties the
entire state has been enrolled up to
or beyond the unit provided for in
the original allotment of county quo
tas.
Already Cape May and Atlantic
counties are going ahead to enroll
larger quotas than at first granted
them. This is done to make possible
the creation of a battalion formation
in the contiguous counties of south
Jersey. This plan will be followed
all over the state. N
In the state at large there will be-
either six or seven battalions and
each will be commanded by a major.
There will be no higher officer in the
field forces, the senior major of the
lot being at the head of the whole or
ganization.
Uniforms and full equipment have
been purchased for the new force by
the state. The federal government is
going to equip the entire organization
with ordnance. including Krag rifles.
The uniform will be exactly like the
present service uniforms, but the
hats will be decorated with blue and
white hat cords instead of the light
blue use by the infantry. The men
will be drilled in the state armories.
