re GRILL LAWSON AGAIN
on PEACE LEAK CHARGES
Committee VIII Endeavor to Draw
Faets From Him, and, Failing That,
To Punish Him-Partisan Debate On
Question of Secrecy Of Note.

Washington, Jan. 12.-Clothed with
powers for forcing witness to testl-
fy, the house rules committee Will
call Thomas ". Lawson before IL
again, probably on Monday and de-
mand that he name the congressman
who he says told him that a cabinet
officer, member of congress, and a
broker were In conspiracy to make
money ID the stock market on Official
secrets.
If lawson again refuses to name
the congressman and the trio In
volved in his story, az 1t IS generally
believed he will, the committee then
will report him either to the house
or the district courts on contempt
charges.
This plan was agreed upon Wy the
committee today after an acrimonl-
Gus debate between Democrats and
Republicans on the floor Of the houSe
had upset the generally accepted Idea
that agitation over rumors OF a
leak" In advance Of President VII
sons peace note was about to sub
side. During the discussion RepubE-
cans charged that the Democrats
we're shutting OF the inquiry BE-
cause they we're afraid Of It. while the
Democrats insisted that their oppo-
aents were playing partisan politics.
Go After Lawson.
When the house had talked for
two hours and was about to vote on
the committees report, Representa-
tive CantriH of Kentucky, a Demo
crat of the committee who had not
Joined in the debate, made propo-
sition that changed the whole situa-
tiou.
LET the committee be instructed"
he said, "to bring Thomas ". Law
son before 1t and submit to him IN
writing the questions he refused to
answer. If he does not answer. then
let Lawson be cited before the bar OF
this house and determine Whether
Thomas W. lawson has more power
than the American congress"
Everybody was surprised by the
suggestion but in a moment indorse-
ments began to come from members.

BERLIN FEELS ASTONISHED
AT ALLIED REPLY
(By William Bayard Hale. J

Berlin, Jan. 12.-(Via Sayville, Jan
13).-The feeling tonight in Berlin
can hardly be described as one OF
unexpected disappointment, but it GER
tainly is profound astonishment.
During the past month a certain
number of persons optimistically en-
dowed have believed that early peace
within the realm of possibility, this
hope being based upon the undeniah.e
successes of the central powers arms
everywhere, the generally satisfac-
tory economic position of the central
empires and the knowledge of grow
ing stringency in England, France
Russia and Italy, together with the
inlpossSbility of understanding wha,
the entente could possibly hope to
achieve by a continuation of the war
1t is true that the unparalleled vim
dictiveness of the British press and
the aggressive speeches of members OF
the British government seemed to in.
dicate that the entente powers are not
yet ready to believe that their effort
to crush Germany is hopeless.
The insolence of the answer to the
Teutonic peace proffer of December
y was accepted as final by man,,
but there still remained a few who
expected the entente answer to Pres
ident Wilson to be couched in differ
ent terms.
That answer now is known here,
and while in truth more decent in
psHaseo4ogy, brutal accusatiG1 now
having degenerated into querrelous
recrimination, the core of the note
reiterates the denial Of Willingness
to discuss peace except on terms ri,
diculously impossible.
The contracted military position OF
the belligerents after more than two
years of war makes It, in German
opinion, monumental insolence fol
the entente to assume 10 dictate q
reorganization of Europe involving
not only the restoration of Belg;uic
Northern France, Alsace-Lorra.n III :,
Poland, Polish East Prussia, Serbia
Montenegro, Rumania and the Trel-
tiny but the total dismenlbermen: o.
the Austro-Hungarian empire and the
handing over Of Ccnstantinople K
Russia
1t IS generally understood that
everybody names extreme figures
when approaching negotiations, but
the bill of fare to which the entente
proposes that the negotiations sit
down IS so stupefying in its colossa
effrontery that it's effect is to render
all thought of peace at this moment
utterly hopeless.
Germany's proffer was made in alb
solute sincerity and with every will
ingness to give Europe and the world
the lasting peace based upon mutua
respect of the rights of all nations
great and small.
But not a man, woman Or child il
all Germany would for a moment
dream Of submitting to such terms as
the infatuated circle Of men moving
as the unreal atmosphere Of Down
ing street and Printing House Square
wildly talk Of imposing upon the fonr
allies Of central powers. victorious
everywhere and only ready to waive
the advantages of further certain vic
tories because they are sincere lovers
Of peace.
War will go on.
