Plea for Peace

and OF the rights OF all neutral ma
tons like our own, many of whose
most vital interests the war puts
in constant jeopardy.
Peace is Nearer
The central powers united in a
reply which stated merely that
they were ready TO meet their an
taRonists In conference to discuss
terms of peace. The entente pow
ers have replied more definitely
and have stated in general terms
indeed. but with sufficient definite
ness To imply to details. the ar
rangements. guarantees and acts OF
reparation, which they deem to he
Indispensable conditions OF n sat
isiactory settlement.
We are that much nearer a def
mite discussion of the peace
which shall end the war. We are
that much nearer the discussion OF
international concert which must
thereafter hold the world at peace.
In every discussion of the peace
that must end this way, 1t is taken
for granted that that peace must
be followed by some definite con-
cert of power, which will make II
virtually impossible that any such
catastrophe should ever over
whelm us again. Every lover of
mankind, every sane and thought
