WILSON REPLIES TO BENEDICT
Pope's Peace Proposal Rejected by
United States.

Washington. President Wilson's
rejection of the pope's peace propos-
ais is regarded here as the high wa
ter mark of the war. Furthermore, it
is indicative of the virtual selection
of the President by the allies as their
spokesman before the world. The
note comes as a climax to the remark
able series of state documents in
which President Wilson has argued
the cause of world democracy against
autocracy in the high court of public
opinion and accepted more and more
by the people of all the allied coun-
tries as expressing their ideals. There
appears to be no doubt that the
United States was selected to make
of all the others. Whether the en-
tente nations will send extensive re.
plies is not known here. 1t is regard
ed as probable that they will in large
measure adopt the Presidents reason
ing for their own and send notes of
Endorsement.
The general tenor OF the President 8
reply has been anticipated every.
where, but there was no inkiing of
the forceful terms he would employ
to say that the world can have nc
faith in the autocratic government OF
Germany.
