TWO VIEWS OF PRESIDENTS So
CALLED PEACE NOTE

Precisely what object President VIII
son had in mind in sending his So
called peace not to the belligerents is
matter concerning which there is
much difference OF opinion and natu-
rally so in the face OF the declaration
of Secretary Lansing that it was not a
peace note" The New York World
expresses the following view:
American people must turn their at.
tention to the most significant part Of
the presidents note, and give serious
consideration to the question Of what
this country is To do II the war con
tinues, as It win. They may as well
face the fact first>as last that the sill
uation Of the United States may, as
the president intimated be rendered
altogether intolerable What then? ?
An intolerable situation admits OF only
one line of action.
80 long as there We're reasonable
grounds for thinking that Germany
might be honest in its professions OF a
willingness TO make peace. and that it
would state terms which would Justify
the belief that an unsuccessful war
might have produced change Of heart
in Berlin, the danger was more or less
remote It is no longer remote. If the
war is to go on, the German govern
ment will undoubtedly resume ruthless
submarine warfare Popular sentiment

APPROPRIATION FOR COLLEGE
PROMISED

Commenting on the prospects foF
the passage OF bills providing for addi'
tional buildings for state educational
institutions, Harlow's Weekly says:
eThe appropriation for the College
for Women was practically promised
to President Austin two years ago II
he could make the dormitory already
provided self.supporting which he has
already done beyond doubt
In spite OF the fact that he has kept
the cost Of board and rooms 70 stu
dents down to a very low figure. Pres
ident Austin has complied with the
wishes Of Gov. Williams by making the
states investment in the dormitory

port setting forth the figures regard
Ing the management Of the brViness
entrAIted to him is in the hands Of the
governor and state board of education
and Is available for the members OF
the legislature.
Both from the business and the edu.
cational point of view President Aus-
tin has demonstrated that the school
over which he presides is worthy OF
liberal treatment at the hands OF the
legislators. The college has reached
the maximum development possible
with present facilities and even before
the opening OF the present term II had
passed the point where accommoda-
t!ons could be provided for the girls
seeking admission to IT, Hundreds Of
prospective students have already been
turned away It would be worse than
stupid for the legislature to fail 70 rec
ognize the needs Of this institution and
to make the appropriations necessary
for its development.

preparations for U-boat warfare on a
scale never before known, and those
preparations concern the United
States hardly less than they concern

Another view is voiced by the Spring.
field Republican, which says:
Assume that the original Teutonic
peace-proposals we're a trap cunningly
set for the purpose OF fastening on the
opponents Of the Central Powers the
responsibility for further warfare. The
United States also has not been caught
