The French Attitude

PARIS, August 1.-The peace pro- posals of Pope Benedict have met with a cool reception in the French press. which complains that they are vague and essentially political. Newspapers which, without being clerical or Cath olic, are not satisfied. The EClaire, the strongest clerical morning paper, limits it's comment to speaking en- thusiastically of the clauses in regard to arbitration and a society of nations The Figaro says the pope's note will eventually cause the Central Powers to set forth their war aims those of the entente being already sufficiently well known.
 The Matin concludes it's comment: What the pope has transmitted to us are the peace offers of the Central Powers"
 The Catholic Gaulois makes a dis tinction between the solemn office of the pOntiff 1n deCreeing articles of faith and in the expression of purely human opinion by the pastor of the peoples, which constitutes a political act and says the peace note belongs to the second category. The writer re- grets the vagueness shown in regard to Alsace-Lorraine, Serbia and Rumania, and adds:
 The pope's appeal marks new stage in the progress toward the await ed issue, because it will lead Catholic Germany to consider peace other than Hindenburg peace. The tenacity of the allied armies will do the rest"
 The Petit Parisien the most widev read morning newspaper, says the note IS even more vague than was indicated by the forecasts. It expresses aston ishment that crimes of the war are not denounced

 RICH PROJECT

LAKE TAHOE, August 19.-Slttlng on the veranda of Tahoe tavern, look ing out across the largest high lake in the United States, William Sproule, president of the Southern Pacific, this morning gave out information of keen interest concerning the largest lake of fresh water in the world, to be con- tained in an artificial basin.
 Roosevelt lake, above the great dam, and the Apache trail were the subjects of MT. Sproule's comments. The an- nouncement was made that the South ern Pacific is to proceed with all haste to make the Roosevelt-Apache trail country one of the great play places of the world. To the folk who travel. and that class includes the rank and file of America as we'll as the vast number of foreign visitors now here, the discovery and development of d new play place is of interest.
 We are going to make the Apache trail one of the widely known wonder places" said MT. Sproule. Tt is to be one of the most accessible of the spectacular places of the continent When we are going to spend hundreds of thousands in bringing comfort to places of natural interest I like to see for myself. I made the trip with Wes- ley Hill, veteran of the Apache trail, and was convinced that this place should be brought to the people.

Peace Maker, Not Judge

ROME, Aug. IA semi-official statement issued today says the Vati- can considers the reproach of a DOT ton of the press that the Holy See has not condemned violations of law, such as atrocities committed, is un- just, since Pope Benedict, faithful to hls principle of impartiality, in his note had the intention of acting as peacemaker and not as judge and also because he lacks the necessary pow CTS to do so. No peace maker. the statement adds, would have the faint est chance of success if he began by trying to prove which side is right and which is wrong
 The pontiff went as far as possible, the statement continues, to make un- derstood what his feelings are without risking the failure of his proposal on the rocks of Austro- German ill feeling. Besides, it concludes, the papal pro- posals were in solemn condemnation of those responsible for the war methods adopted and the barbarities committed.

Suppose you desired to satisfy the bangs of thirst and you gave another party s3 with which to purchase fire water and the party of the second part failed to live up to the agree ment not only by fa5 ing to make the purchase, but by being negligent in making a refund. Would you feel like hunting the cheater and chastis- ing him?
 T. Stewart, who claims to have been the party of the first part in just such a three-act play, stated in the hearing yesterday in police court that one, c. B. Bobo, was guilty of play ing him just such a mean trick
 Both of the men weer arrested last night on charges of fighting. After explaining the case, Stewart was all lowed to go on his way with the thirst still unsatisfied. However, not 50 with Bobo. At least, not until he had been separated from S20, which was the fine assessed in his case.

There was no bombing them out. but the Germans themselves were prisoners. They dared not open their doors to fire ma chine guns for fear of bombs, so we pushed ahead and left the Germans there with a squad of bombers sitting outside ready to throw explosives when the door opened The situation was not without humor and for all I know. 1t remains the same, but sooner or later the Germans must give in.
 There was heavy hand-to- hand fighting before Langemarck, among the concrete defenses, but we had no trouble when once inside. Our infan- try tell me that once our barrage has passed over the ground they have little trouble with the German infantry.
