German workmen. There is cEi-
dence about the perilous shortage IN
the following from the Berliner
Tageblatt:
"Foodstuffs prospects re more un-
favorable than at any time during
INC war. To the high cost Of TO
which already has become q terrible
burden to the masses, is added the
danger that not even the most abSo-
lutely necessary foodstuffs can be
considered as assured. ;"

Russia will be disappointed. DULY

WHY NOT SAVE THAT WOOr:

In these days of scarcity OF coal
ard wood, why would it not be 4
fine idea to save the old railroad ties
which are burned up along the rail
roads and let the people who could
use them for fire wood have them :?
Has the thought ever occurred to tire
railroad managers? Is there any
valid reason why the idea could not
be carried into effect?
Thousands Of cords of excellent
wood tire said to be burned up year

which are burned and thrown away
along the various lines Of railroads,

seem, might be saved aud made Use

now stand in the way Of peace. Peace

LES adoption Of all Of Gelnsany's
principles. as London otficialdom saw
i yesterday, was for the obvious Dur-
pose Of attempting to convince tho
Russians that only the ailies are hold
irg up restoration Of peace.
This move was seen as one Of
Germany'& ciererest pieces Of dip'o-
matte strategy, calculated to cmbar-
ra$s the allies as much as possible.
Czernin'S bid for peace from the cen
trai powers makes these points:
Germany is agreeable TO policy
Of no lamentations and nc indcmlntiss;
Germany is disclaimiug any desire TO
deprive any independent nution Of pc
litical rights now possessed by it;
