wealth Of 20 South Carolina counties

DR.. Lewis said there had been an

of eradication began and a conserve

eliminated had placed the Increased

Washington.-The Entente Allies,

press the belief that it is impossible at
the present moment to attain peace
that will assure them reparation, re-
stitution and such guarantees as they
consider are essential
ernment expresses its desire for peace,
but declares she could only accept
settlement which would assure her
reparation and security for the future.
Both Of the communications made
public by the State Department are
dated January 10. and were transmit
ted in translations from the French
text through Ambassador Sharp at
Paris.
The Entente reply to President
Wilson's peace note is regarded in all
quarters here rs putting an early peace
practically out OF the question, but still
leaving an open door for the President
to make further efforts. The official
view on first consideration is that 1t
constitutes a complete answer to the
Presidents note.
The German diplomats regard the
reply as even more severe than they
expected. They declared it evidenced
that the enemies of Germany are wag-
ing war Of conquest to crush and
dismember her. The Germanic AL
lies, they declared. never would agree
to any such terms.
President Wilson's next move, which
now becomes the center Of attention,
will not be decided upon until care
