REPORT OF THE PEACE
SCHEME BY GERMANY
New York Times Gives Publicity
To the Rumors That Are
Circulated
runited Press Dispatch ]

New York, March 21.--It is under
stood that Germany has been sound
ing Switzerland and Holland on the
subject of peace proposals, This is
indicated in dispatches received from
The Hague and printed in The New
York Times. A German official in
Holland is quoted as having said that
the Russian revolution changed the
whole aspect of things from the Ger
man point of view. Germany could
no longer declare for freedom of the
Poles, the Lithuanians and other peo-
pies that had long been under the
yoke of the Russian cZar, since Rus
sia itself was taking measures to
grant these people the rights of free
dom and political equality. This Of
ficer remarked that Germany might
be willing to return Poland to RusI
sia, under the present government, as
one of the conditions of making
peace. 1t is understood that Germany
has been trying to get Switzerland to
sound America on the subject of MAX
ing peace on the basis of granting
political freedom to all the little ma
tions which have been crushed down
under the weight of the war among
the great powers.

RIPPED THE KA|sER'S
PICTURE FROM WALL
Patriotic School Children in
Washington Hang Up VIII
sons Instead

Washington, March 21-Patriotie
students IN Central high school here
yesterday tore down from the. walls
Of a class room picture of Emperor
William Of Germany and hung in its
place photograph Of President Will
son, decorated with two American
flags. The emperor's likeness disap-
peared before officers of the school
cadet corps had an opportunity to
present to Miss Marie Siebert
teacher of German, a resolution
protesting against the presence OF
"a murderer's picture" and demanded
its removal.
Harry Roper, fifteen-yea son
of Daniel C. Roper, recently appoint
ed to the tariff commission, led the
agitation begun several days age
against the, picture by turning its
face to the wall several times. Miss
Siebert, who is an American, insist
ed that it should remain, saying she
intended to use it to illustrate a
lecture. Then the cadet officers in
terested themselves and were ready
to act today when other students
entered the room during recess
and made the substitution. School
authorities are investigating the in
cident.

WILL TAKE AN APPEAL
Case of Chris Zotaiis Against Pete
CanelIos Goes UP Higher.

Case of Chris Zotaiis Against Peter
CanelIos Goes UP Higher.
An appeal to the supreme court
will be taken from the order of
Judge Walter A. PlyTnat of the mu-
nicipal court, denying a new trial of
the suit Of Chris Zotalis against
Peter Canellos, an action brought
to annul the latter's lease on the
quarters of the cigar store and pool
hall at 122 South Front street. The
municipal court decided in favor of
CaneIlos and denied the motion for
a. new trial S. B. Wilson and Ivan
Bowen are attorneys for the plain
tiff and c.. J. Laurisch and c. E.
Phillips for the defendant. The main
ground on which the attorneys for the
plaintiff seek to inva1fdate the lease
is that there is a provision in the
lease which forbids subletting and
that this provision has been violated.

wellington, New Zealand, Febru-
ary Correspondence of The AS
sociated Press. From the fact that
New Zealand soldiers in this wal
may now be paid up to $40 a
week above ordinary wages it is
asserted in the dominion that they
are the highest paid soldiers in the
world. The special allowance is for
men who can establish that their
civil obligations justify their receiv-
ing it. And it is payable alike to
vents and "sents"-as volunteers
or drafted men are called. One of
the grounds emitting a soldier to
additional payment is: Expenses in
respect of the management of his
business during his military service"
Prior to the new grant the weekly
rate of pay for a married private in
the New Zealand expeditionary force
ranged from $1,000 for man with
a wife only to support to SIT for a
man with wife and five children.
Some time ago the recruiting board
decided to refuse enlistment to any
more married men with more than
three children. Under the new
scheme a private with wife only
"may' receive $20.50 week.,
The first draft of the dominion's s
compulsory enlisted men to the
number of over 1000 went into camp
the latter part of January. These
men were chosen by the ballot" or
drafting SYSTEM that is, by the use
of numbered marbles and card in
dexes. They are no different in ap-
pearance or in any other detail from
voluntary recruits. Meantime vOlun-
tary enlistment continues in some
districts. If the full quotas are OBJ
tanned that way, the ballot system
is not applied there.
The men drafted with but few ex-
ceptions responded cheerfully, ana
many of them plainly welcomed a
system by which the government
shouldered the responsibility of de-
Gliding that they were to take UP arms.
With over $4,000 men in the field
or in training the civilian walks of
life in New Zealand have been de-
pleted to noticeable extent, but
the general opinion is that as long
as the major part of these men re-
turn the temporary loss of nan-pow-
er will not have been too heavy a
price to pay for the establishment OF
future national army. The domin-
ions population is about 100000.
