HIS SUGGESTION RESENTED

Interpreting therecent speech of DR..
Michaelis, the German chancellor, as
bid for peace, directed particularly to
the United States. Senator Lewis Of IL
linois yesterday afternoon urged upon
the Senate the wisdom of giving the
matter serious consideration.
Taking direct issue with Senator
Lewis, Senator King OF Utah declared
It was folly to discuss peace.
I'VE are in this fight to win," said
Senator King. I'VE shall not talk peace
until Germany sues for peace; until the
wrongs she has committed, the foul
crimes Of which she has been guilty
have been burned away upon the bat

Possible Terms Of Peace.

Senator Lewis told the Senate that he
believed the central powers would be
willing to accept peace without VIC.
tory. He outlined the possible terms OF
peace as follows:
The restoration Of Belgium, fund
for restoration being contributed to by
all the warning powers.
The restoration of French territory,
including the provinces Of Alsace-Lor-
raine.
The return to Germany of her colonies
IN Africa
The establishment Of board. on which
all the powers would be represented, to
arrive at terms for a lasting peace
The boundaries Of Italy. the part which
Turkey fs to play in Europe. and the
Balkan situation would be handled by this
board.
Il Interpret the speech to mean that
me mere asking for peace by the allies
would be the occasion for Germany agree
ing to discuss terms" said he.
Directed to the United States.
Senator Lewis said he believed the
speech was peculiarly directed to the
United States" and added his opinion
that It was not written by the chancellor.

of the U-boat to bring the allies to
their knees did not Took like an offer Of
peace"
Senator Lewis said his idea. gained only
by . reading Of the speech. was that Ger
many would be satisfied to restore the
status quo before the war.

Senator Lewis in brief reply said:
Surely the senator does not mean
that he is in favor of continuing the
war IL Germany is willing to make
peace on our terms or those OF the
allies"
