GERMANY APPROVES
VAT|CAN'S APPEAL
Cannot Again Offer Peace,
However, Says Chancellor
MiChaeIiS.
GETS REICHSTAG BACKING

by the Associated Press.
BERLIN. August %. via London
chancellor MichaeIis informed the main
committee of the reichstag yesterday
afternoon that Germany would not reply
to the papal peace note until she had
consulted her allies
Dr. Mfchaelis added that in view of the
TACT that Germany had previously re-
peatedly and positively indicated her
readiness to enter peace negotiations.
the Vatcan's appeal. of course. is looked
on with sympathetic approval Germany,
however could not again offer peace in
face of the summary rejection of previ-
Gus proposals and continued declarations
py the entente that no peace is possible
until the central powers are defeated
and crushed.
The chancellor informed the committee
that no steps would be undertaken to-
ward peace without fully consulting the
reiehstag. He then declared that the
military situation on all fronts was ex-
ceptionally auspfcious, and read a mes
sage received from great headquarters
in which the C-boat campaign was given
liberal credit for its effect in success

Discusses Causes of War.

Discussing the causes which led to
American participation in the war.
Comma nder Patterson said that while
the American people were reluctant to
take up arms the force ofcircumstances
was irresistible.
The continued and increasing inso-
lence OF the imperial German govern
ment could not longer be tolerated" he
declared. Its violation of solemn
pledges its army of plotting spies scat
tered through our land. fits schemes to
destroy workshops and create strikes.
its intrigues to stir up insurrections
among our own people and provoke hos
tilities in neighboring nations had
reached a point where forbearance had
ceased TO be a virtue.
When notice came to that the
solemn pledge of Germany was to be
set aside, and the indiscriminate and
ruthless submarine warfare resumed,
the only course left for this govern
ment was to sever diplomatic relations
with that empire"

Attitude of Others.

The national liberal speakers said
they We're unable as yet to examine
closely the contents of the papal note,
but indorsed the chanceller's state
ments. The conservatives also asso-
ciated themselves with Dr. Michaelis
remarks, but reserved their attitude
with regard to the details.
The German group especially well
coined the chancellor's firm declaration
that the note emanated spontaneously
from the Pope. They regarded the
Popes action as more sympathetic than
President Wilson's previous attempt at
mediation. The independent socialists
regretted that the speakers expressed
only general sympathy with the note
without discussing IT. The reichstag
must exert its influence in drafting
the reply.
One socialist said there was no ques-
ton of the reichstag renouncing such
influence. but some days must be al
lowed to enable the government to con-
fer with the allies. Moreover the gov
ernment promises not to reply without
taking the reichstag into its conf
dence.
DR.. Richard Won kuehlmann, the new
foreign secretary. and other newly ap-
pointed government heads were pre-
sented to the committee. which then
took n recess. Constantine Fehren-
bach. one of the centrist party leaders.

mittee to succeed DIR. Peter SPAIN. DIR.

Socialists Back Pope's Act.

After Chancellor Michaelis had in
formed the main committee of the
reichstag that Germany would not
reply to the papal peace note until she
had consulted her allies. socialist
speakers who followed him said they
welcomed the Pope's action. as they
would welcome any step capable of
bringing peace. and all the more be-
cause it was expected to bear results.
The liberals declared themselves in
agreement with the chancellor's SYM
pathetic Interpretation of the Pope's
action The centrists associated them
selves with the chancellors remarks
and said the Pope's proposal marked
extraordinarily valuable progress to-
ward peace. which was so ardently de-
sired by all nations. They hoped the
act of his holiness would meet with full

Of motion pictures in the United
States. The government is in need of
thousands Of typewriter operators and
stenographers of both sexes for war
work in Washington, and through it's
5000 local boards of examiners in that
many cities, the Commission request
ed the owners and managers of motion
picture theatres to allow free of
charge an announcement on their
screens of this need of the Govern
ment. The refusals were so few as to
be negligible. Not more than hun
dred of the 10000 odd exhibitors who
were approached declined to render
to the people the service asked. Even
these can not be charged with disloy-
atty; most Of them held decided views
as to their duty to their patrons who
pay for entertainment only. The only
criticism of the Government came
from three exhibitors who declined
on the ground that it was proposed to
place a tax on motion picture tickets.
One owner asked remunera ton in the
sum of 25 cents week, and another
stipulated that he was to be relieved
of any responsibility for damage to
the slides furnished by the Govern
ment. The slides cost less than 10
cents apiece. Almost without excep-
ton the "movie" men were not only
willing, but were even eager to serve

A CHILLY WELCOME.

Early Sunday morning VIM. Kuismi
called at the home of his divorced
wife, ten miles north Of town, and de-
manded entrance, which was at first
refused. Under threats and insincere
promises he finally succeeded in gain
ing entrance.
His first move was to request the
woman to remarry him; absolute re-
fusal; assaulted the woman by throw
ing her violently to the floor. A young
son gave the alarm, and assistance
came from nearby neighbors.
Warrant for assailant's arrest was
issued. Marshal C. Husa proceeded to
the scene, but the intruder had escap-
ed, and could not be found anywhere
around the surrounding territory.
The couple were divorced one year
ago last February. He is known as
an undesirable citizen. Van Hook

qusted. This hearty response from
10000 businessmen representative of
every part of the country, has a
striking significance. 1t is interesting
to note in this connection that the es-
timated daily attendance at motion
picture shows in the United States
is ten million. This allows an average
of 500 for each house.
