From the German tactics Of almost

The Germans have apparently
Ssnsed this and are striving by every

Germans probably also see the grave
menace OF further British advances in

service in making 1t possible for the
commission that finally is chosen to
represent the United States to express
traditions OF unselfish America.
What will the personnel of the
peace commission be? 1t is safe to
say that the President has not crossed
that bridge yet. Probably out CT the
men modified by Colonel House will
commission be created. Whether
the colonel will be the head of 1t is
difficult to predict. He has never
held office and the impression that
prevails here is that he is disinclined
to break his precedent. He might
remain as one OF the several unoffi-
cial advisers which the commission
will have when 1t meets with the rep
resentatives OF other belligerent pow
ers
The appointment OF the commission
must not be taken to mean that
peace negotiations are at hand-thIs
is the iterated emphasis which Gov
eminent officials do not fail to give
to the Presidents request for a COM
pilation of data for the peace con-
ference. Indeed, the true feeling Is
that there is plenty of time in which
to prepare for the great confer nce.
And even II the actual round table
discussion should not begin for an
other year, the preliminary discus
sion of terms through neutral and
unofficial agencies nevertheless re-
quires the mobilization of a trained
corps of men from whom disinterest-
ed opinions can be sought
All Varieties OF Opinion.
Colonel House is expected to ask
the counsel OF Americans OF all va
rieties of opinion-progressive re-
dictionaries, socialists, Republicans
as well as Democrats-with the idea
OF obtaining a true concession OF
American opinion. The work will
necessarily be done quietly, and no
announcements may be expected, Of
ficials here, for instance, prefer to
discuss the whole business vaguely.
1t is still an academic study, but as
