POPE'S PEACE PROPOSAL

Under the terms Of peace prOpOS.
ed by Pope Benedict, Germany would
take her place at the council table
OF the peace conference with all her
lost colonies restored, escaping from
every demand for PREPARATION for the
ruin she has wrought, secure in the
return Of her territory save that the
future Of Alsace-Lorraine would be
left to the decision of conference.
The German empire would still be
under the sway Of the autOcrlcy
which President Wilson said "could
not be trusted to keep the faith or
to observe its covenants. Except for
the express provision that Belgium.
Serbia and Rumania are to be set
free and the occupied territory Of
France be evacuated, we find in these
Roman terms nothing Of those c0ndi-
lions Of peace which the allies have
repeatedly and with the utmost en-.
Dhasis declared to be essential. indis.
pensablc. On the other hand. we rec
ogniZe the conditions which it has
been known would be acceptable to
the central powers excepting only
the proposed submission to the peace
conference Of the question Of Msaco-
Lorraine, with the TrentinO. Triesta
and Poland. There can be no Ger
man peace. That Germany and Aus
tria must understand from the very
beginning. There can be no peace
that will leave Germany free to "be-
gin again. York Times.

POSE LOAN PLAN.

Washington, April 1.-THE
war finance bill, providing for
issuance of $1,000, 100000 in Sc.
curities-the largest single war
budget in any nations history
was passed unanimously tonight
by the senate.
After seven hours of discus
sion the administration measure
which was passed by the house
last Saturday and which pro-
vides for a loan to the allies of
S3,000,000,000 was approved by
the senate, with few changes in
record time. The amendments
may necessitate a conference, or
the senate changes may be ac-
copied by the house.
In either event the executive
branch of the government con-
Quoting the war with Germany
will, within a few hours, have
authorization for the great war
chest at it's disposal. To expe-
dite action the senate tonight
appointed conferees to act if the
house should not, contrary to ex-
pectations, accept the senate
changes.
Of the eighty-four senators
present tonight, every one, in
Guiding those who voted against,
war, except Senator Lane, of Or
egon, who was absent because
of illness, recorded themselves
in favor of providing the funds
to prosecute hostilities. Nearly
all of the twelve absentees were
i'll.
That, in the inability of the
nation to supply men at once for
the fighting line, money should
be Americans immediate con-
tribution to her allies, was the
dominant thought expressed dur
ing the debate. For senators par
ticipated in the discussion, which
was totally devoid of partisan
expression. Every senator speak
ing announced staunch intention
to aid the government in prose-
cutting the war to speedy con-
clusion. Only two, Senators Bor-
oh and Cummins, declared oppo-
sition to the proposed allies loan
A few favored raising lar
ger proportion by taxation of
the present generation and less
upon bonds.
