WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 81.
-Argentine's only course is war
with Germany, in the light of Ger
man duplicity within her borders,
as emphasized by the latest Lux
burg secret documents, authorities
here held today.
They anticipated that the "ju-
yenile committee" mainly students
of military age-would lead new
demonstrations to force war and
swerve the nation from following
its pro-German president.
Involved in the prospects of
such a demonstration was fear
that railroad property would be
wrecked by the German agents
and grain destroyed to keep 1t
from allied hands.
While lacking transports, Ar
gentina has 100000 men she
could send to France quickly. She
could raise many more, in addi-
ton to being an extensive gran
airy and supply department for

, this time will fail, was the firm
answer Of government authorities
today, in view of publication of
reported Teuton peace feelers.
Moreover, there is some prospect
that Russia will awaken before 1t
is too late and quit her peace
negotiating with the Germans.
No official indication nor out
line of Germany's peace proposals
has reached this government.
What has been advertised as
Germany's feeler was branded in
official and diplomatic quarters
as pro-German propaganda, fos-
tered by a neutral legation and
spread for Teuton purposes.

Nicholas and his family are to be

1t was authoritatively stated to-
day that decree would be issued
Thursday allowing members of the
imperial family, including those at
Tobolsk, to "go abroad" in COM
pliance with their request.
This action of the bolsheviki is
due to insistence of the Germans
in the armistice negotiations.
One report current in the city
today was that the imperial fam
