Pope Has Loftiest Motives

There was no disposition to ascribe
any but the loftiest motives to Pope
Benedict in accepting at their face
value peace proposals emanating from
Vienna. but naturally the question was
at once raised as to the proper division
of responsibility between the central
powers and the Pope. 1t was pointed
out that 1t is important to know
whether the proposals came Lifted ped
from Vienna or Berlin, or whether fhe
Pope himself framed them in the light
of an understanding he may have ac
quired of the minimum demands OF the
central powers.
The entente diplomats agreed that
the peace proposals did not come from
any OF the allied capitals. So far as

State Department Defers Of

An unofficial outline of Pope Bene.
diets peace proposals received here dis
closes that the pontiff includes some of
the principles of world peace for which
President Wilson has declared.
Among the Pope's proposals are re,
duction of ornaments, freedom of the
seas and that there shall be no retalia-
tory struggle after the war for world
commercial supremacy. These are re-
garded as the foundation stones of the
Pope's plan.
The Pope's proposal declares that the
injuries to all belligerents have been so
great there should be no thought of rep
aration, except for the return of ter
ritory
Included in the restoration of terri
tory, the Pope's proposals insist, should
be the return to Germany of all her col
onies. as well as the complete restora-
tion of Belgium to her sovereignty.
Allies to Be Consulted.
The State Department acknowledges
today that it had received unofhcial
knowledge of Pope Benedicts peace
proposals before today's news dis
patches were received here. No off,
cial cognizance can be taken of 1t until
the proposal Is conveyed officially.
Whatever consideration Is given to it
will be after consultation with the al
lies.
Within the entente diplomatic circle
the opinion was freely and promptly
expressed that the peace proposal was
inspired by Germany and was an at
tempt to split the allies In a conflicting
discussion of their war aims.
