II there was ever any possibility Of
serious disaffection in the Non-Parti'
san league camp, it was completely
eliminated yesterday afternoon when
the name of Howard R. Wood of Deer.
ing for speaker of the house was pro
posed by l.. D. Wiley of Morton and
seconded by E. A. Bowman Of Kuhn.
The method in which Wood was nom
mated revealed the presence Of some
genuine diplomatic timber in league
circles, for the only men who had ever
been mentioned as possible opponents
of Wood were Wiley and Bowman,
both good leaguers, and, while Bow
man withdrew early in the race with
the statement that he never had been
an active candidate, Wiley had been
considered until the very hour Of the
caucus as a probable contender.
The selection of Wood is proving
generally popular both in and out of
league ranks. The new speaker is a
young man of fine presence, and he
has made a very favorable impression
during the few days he has been in
the capital.
Walton Presides.
Anthony Walton, one of the strong
men of the league, and member Of the
original Equity Packing plant commit
tee, called the caucus to order, with
approximately 100 league members of
the house present.
Following the choice of Wood for
speaker by acclamation, A. E. Bowen,
a prominent league organizer, was &C.
lected for clerk of the house by a
unanimous vote.

England Preparing To Answer
Recent Inquiry of President
Wilson ON Terms
(lJnited PreSS.)

Berlin, Jan. 2.-Peace hopes have
been dispersed. 1t must now be a
war to the last drop of blood. The
written document received from the
Entente Allies Is not worthy of an
answer.
This is the belief of press and pub
lie expressed today. Newspapers bitter
in their criticism of the Entente
Allies document claim that the only
answer to rejoinder is by force Of
arms. The average man on the street
seems to feel the same way about the
document.
Force Of Arms.
1T is really surprising that ten
men should sign such document
which is the embodiment Of every
kernel Of untruth,"' said the Lokal
Anzeiger today. How shall we answer
it? We say, only through the force
of Won Hindenburgs arms. The world
is full of devils, let everyone in Ger
many do his utmost"
Crashing to earth of peace hopes

Years celebration in Berlin. Ambas-

the war.
1t is considered certain that the
Allies answer will be another ident-
ical note, Of the same character as the
one issued from Paris. England and
France have agreed jointly to draft
a note, written before one is written
by other nations. This will be handed
to Ambassador Sharpe, and the, Eng
lish public hopes it will be a clear
statement of the aims Of the Entente
Allies. England is today certain that
the British food blockade of Germany
and the German certainty of being
beaten is responsible for the apparent
anxiety for peace.

dent Wilson's note to belligerents,
should Germany resume unbridled SUBJ
marine warfare.
This implication grew today from a
conference between President Wilson
and Chairman Stone Of the senate for
eign relations committee. Such an en-
dorsement which would necessarily
mean approval of all recent adminstra-
ton moves is hedged in even deeper
secrecy than that which marked the
sending of President Wilson's now his
toric peace suggestions. 1t is also be-
lieved that in the conference between
Stone and the president, the congress
sional investigation into so-called Sc
cret diplomacy was discussed.
