Copenhagen. July 30.-German
newspapers variously interpret the
talk of peace possibilities of Dr..
Miehaelis, the German imperial chan
cellor, TO newspapermen in Berlin on
Saturday Radical papers of the
stamp of Vorwaerts profess to find in
the chancellor's concluding phrase n
clear disavowal of all annexation
plans, while the pan-German and an
nexationist organs are no less satis-
fled with the declarations and they
lay weight on the alleged designs OF
conquest entertained by Germany's
opponents as nullifying all overtures
for an immediate peace.
The Tages Zeitung says the revela-
tlons made by the imperial chancellor
show the necessity of material and
security for Germany's S
future in the peace treaty and proved
how childish and comic are German
discussions of peace based on under
standing and subsequent reconcilia-
ton.
Vorwaerts regrets the chancellor
did not expressly state that Belgium
would be given complete freedom.
Any less intent, that newspaper says
would be utterly incompatible with
the reichstag's program.

Rome, July 30,-Guiseppe Canapa,
food controller in the Italian cabinet,
talking to the Associated Press about
aid from the United States to tho en-

the American government to help
the allies solve the grave problem of
supplies are fully known and appre-
ciated in Italy.
Besides the military aid which
America Is already giving the en-
tente," he added, "and which will
have decisive influence on the war,
American cooperation in the ques-
ton of supplies is of essential inter

I'VE receive the greater portion of
our supplies both for the conduct of
the war and for living, from the
American market" he said, "and the
promptness of the financial aid given
the allies has already relieved us of
great difficulties and anxieties
Equally important Is the help which
America will give us through the
proposed legislation ensuring ade-
quate regular supplies to the allies at
reasonable prices. Measures already
adopted to regulate the cereals mar
ket and center them in European
ports of the allies with the efforts for
an increased yield deserve the high

''The control of the merchant ma

time preventing excessive rates.

GERMANY is STRONGER
THAN WHEN WAR BEGAN

Berlin, July 29 (via London, July
30) In its review of the third year
of the world war the Tageblatt points
out that the armies of Germany and
gs5ff allies nave cJi.qaAfed nielG than
half a million square kilometers of
entente territory and asserts that the
military strength of the central
powers instead of decreasing has in
creased, while that of France has Wis
IDLY diminished The newspaper says
the German people has plainly an
nounced its readiness for peace and
expresses the hope that common sense
and sincere desire for the cessation
of hostilities will assert themselves in
the ranks of Germany's adversaries.
The German official world appar-
emily is not inclined to share the OPP
timism which Matthias ErZberger ex-
hibited in the recent interview he gave
in Zurich and which burst in Berlin
today.
When the Associated Press corre-
spondent inquired whether Herr Err
berger's presence in Switzerland and
his announced ambition to sit at the
table opposite Premier Lloyd George
for the purpose of arranging peace
conference reflected the sentiments
or the authority of the German gov
ernment, the foreign office replied
that Herr ErZberger was travelling and
talking in a private capacity
Herr Erzberger is reported to have
declared to the Zuricher Nachrichten
that if he could talk with Lloyd
George (the British premier) or Mr..
Balfour british foreign secretary
We could in a few hours reach an un-
derstanding which would enable Of
ficial peace negotiations to COM
mence."
After this interview Herr Erzber-
ger cannot longer be taken seriously
says the Cologne Gazette. However,
for the sake of the public interest we
would urgently request him to discon-
,inue playing the role of providence

tutional amendment opened in the
senate today under unanimous con-

Wednesday,. The debate was purely
perfunctory with but few senator's in
their seats and a small number of
spectators in the galleries.
Senator Sheppard, author of the
pending resolution to submit such an
amendment to the states, opened the
debate and was followed by Senator
Underwood, who in brief speech OPP
posed the resolution. The only other
speakers were Senators Ashurst and
Shafroth, both of whom supported it,

while alcoholic liquor itself is a men

Gated the aid of the federal govern

Underwood Opposes.
Senator Underwood declared adop-
tion of the amendment would "have
a tendency to centralize our govern
ment under police autocracy such
as exists in Germany and Austria
Hungary" entrenching national au-
thority and weakening the sovereignty
of the people.
"I see no reason why we cannot
now trust, as we have in the past, the
enlightened electorate of each state
to pass the necessary laws for the
domestic control of their own people"
the Alabama senator continued. IF
the federal government is once called
on to enter the field. apprehend and
punish the petty vices of the citizens
of the states in respect to the matters
authorized by this resolution it will
not be long before efforts will be made
to further the police powers of the

and the abolition of state govern
ments."
Leaders expect the vote on the res
olution to be close. A two-thirds ma
jority is required for passage.
