 RAISE VOICES
 UP FOR PEACE
Socialist Member of the Reichstag Makes An Appeal to the
 Germans.

AMSTERDAM, June 29--Accord- ing to the Berlin Vorwaerts. copy of which has been received here, Wolfgar Heine, member of the Reich stag, addressing a Social Democratic meeting in Berlin, spoke strongly in favor of peace without annexation or indemnities. Herr Heine declared that the government long ago should have stated publicly what it had con fidentially to Dr. Arthur Hoffman, the former member of the Swiss Federal Council, who endeavored to open peace negotiations between Rus sia and Germany
 Since the belligerent governments are now so involved in the cul de sac that it is unlikely that they will come together to talk peace" Herr Heine continued, it only remains for the people themselves to raise their voices for peace and to take in hand the task of removing in fluence of those people whose mis- chievous activity is largely blamable for the war; whose avOwed policy of domination is wrongly regarded abroad as the aim of the German people and to whom must be ascribed the fact that Germany is hated by the entire world"

THE IRISH CONVENTION
Cincinnati Enquirer)

Cincinnati Enquirer)
 II would be sluggish heart that did not leap at the news that convention for propos ng scheme to settle the Irish problem is likely to be held
 To many of it is of the most intricate and difficult of quesons-a labyrinth hard to get into out of. Again and again have tried to fathom the Irish character and to comprehend the reasons why satisfactory solution of the diffi- cues of the dear old Emerald Isle is not to be easily found but in spite of efforts desires and our sympathies have failed in both these endeavors. Simple Irish characters the surface there are subtlees at the bottom too deep for cOmpre henson Easy the and the methods of se- curing peaceful end to the troubles with England appear at first stumble at last upon mysteries and obstacles which understand than remove.
 No matter, however. to what degree we may be and the stubbornness of the Irish people, always tender sympathy with the yearnngs and aspirations of that most lovabe people for national life more full and more satisfying to their perpetual craving after individuality.
 We love the Emerald Isle, love it's ardent in habitants and we wish them every good in the whole wide world. But we know quite well how hard they to govern; how deep the abyss which divide them from England and from each other how difficult it will be for them to get together in their great vention. And we know we'll how important it is that they should do how much is hanging upon their decision how possible it is that the fate of the world may hinge their unselfish determination to take the path of wisdom. What it is and where it leads we are not wise enough to tell them, but who has not the right to hope and pray that they may find and follow it to the very end?

WASHINGTON, June 29 The shortage of ships for the military transport service constitutes one of the biggest problems before the War chiefs of America today. There are sufficient ships to carry vast num- bers of soldiers, but this is only a small part of the problem, inasmuch as these men must be constantly supplied with food, clothing artillery and other equipment. The army will require it's own weight in food ev cry 39 days, while all artillery must be replaced every 30 days In addi tion, there is the question of getting supplies to the Allies.

the same time he authorized the Sec
rotary of the treasury to license such

The effect of the embargo. which
