Peace Plan the Most Widely
Discussed Subject in
the Empire
Michaelis to Sound
Berlin's S Allies
Austria-Hungary and Berlir
Concerned About Their
Aims, Is Report
By Arthur S. Draper

LONDON. Aug. 22.-Whatever may
be Germany's real feeling toward
peace, a reading of the German news
papers proves that no subject is being
more widely discussed at the present.
Every shade of opinion is given, from
that of the jingoes to that Of the
minority Socialists, with elaborate in
terpretations of the views of Chancel-
lor Michaels and Premier Czernin.
Just now the "Kolnische Zeitung,'
the "Vossische Zeitung" and the "Nord-
deutsche Allgmeine Zeitung" are sug-
gesting that the Central Powers form
q combination with France and Rus
sia against England and America
The "Vossische Zetung" is limiting
that France can have Alsace-Lorrsine
after the peace conference il France
will consent 10 a moral and not mill
tary victory for Germany.
The same newspaper says Germany
does not want a foot of Russian soil,
but desires her to "work with US for
bringing about an early peace by an
understanding which will prepare the
ground for friendly relations advsn-
tageous 70 both parties
All through Germany the Anglo
American bogey is being raised. The
press campaign clearly is being in
spired and undoubtedly the way is be-
ing paved for a new peace drive.

Germany to Await
Her Allies Views on
Peace, Says Michaelis

COPENHAGEN, Aug. pa dispatch
received here from Berlin quotes the
address of Dr. Mchaelis, the Imperial
German Chancellor, before the Main
Committee Of the Reichstag in Berlin
on Tuesday, in part as follows;
ut is easily understood, in view OF
the attitude of our enemies, that the
German press maintains that it is i'm
possible for us to make fresh peace
proposals"
The Chancellor here quoted an arti-
Gle in the Berlin "Vorwaerts," the So
cialist organ. to the effect that respon-
sibility for the prolonGation OF the war
rested upon the Allies, and that for
Germany there was only one alterna, 1i, I,
tiye-"to defend ourselves and our kim"
81 think" the Chancellor continued,
this is the general feeling of our peo-
ple. II is in such situation as this
that now submit to you the peace pro
posal contained in the Pope note. The
contents of the note, | believe, are
known to all of you.
, "The fundamental ideas advanced in
the note correspond with the position
which the Pope takes up in accordance
with his personality and his charge as
head of Catholic Christendom. The
Pope places in the foreground his con-
viction that the moral force OF right
should replace the material force OF
arms. and on this foundation he de
velops his proposals for arbitration and
disarmament.
81 cannot take up any definite posi-
tion regarding the material tenor OF
the proposals or go into any details
concerning them until an agreement IS
reached with our allies"
81 oppose the opinion that the Pope's
proposal was inspired by the Central
Powers. 1t was due TO the spontaneous
decision of the head of the Catholic
Church.
"If | must speak with reserve with
regard TO detail, | can say that it cor
responds generally to our own eX-
pressed attitude. We are sympathetic
to every attempt TO inspire the thought
of peace among the war weary people,
and we especially greet the move Of
tha Pope, which, in my opinion, was
based on an earnest desire for Impair
tiality and justice.
"The note was not initiated by US,
but was advanced on the spontaneous
initiative of the Pope. We greet with
sympathy the Pope's efforts by dur
able peace TO make an end OF the war
of peoples"
After Chancellor Michaclis had in
formed the Main Committee Of the
Reichstag that Germany would not re-
ply to the Papal peace note until she
had consulted her allies, Socialist
speakers who followed him said they
welcomed the Popes action as they
would welcome any step capable Of
bringing peace, and all the more be-
cause it was expected 10 bear results.

Russia Asks Help;
Reports of Crisis
Disturb Capital
Russians Retreat
AS Germans Launch
New Thrust at Riga
Assault in the North May Be
the Beginning of Move
Against Petrograd

LONDON, Aug. 22.-German armies
have started what may develop into
serious offensive on the extreme north
ern sector of the Russian front, be-
tween the River As and the Tirul
marshes, a belt of lowlands poorly
adapted to defence, between the Aa and
the Dvina. Petrcgrad admits that the
Russian advance guards have already
been forced back as much as two miles
in places, and the indications are that
German naval forces are cooperating in
the attack. Russian cavalry patrols
have also been driven back near TAX
KUN, thirty eight miles west Of Riga.
This new military movement is cen
tired around Riga and may be the be-
ginning of the much -heralded German
drive for Petrograd, which was sup
posed to be in process of organization
before the revolution. However, the
Russian capital is a long distance
away, the approaches TO it are poor, the
season is late, and it is not believed
here that the German command has
the reserves to initiate such an under
taking with any hope of success, un-
less the generalization in the Russian
armies has spread greatly since Lieu
tenant General Korniloff took such
10 ,harE ~
In this connection the appointment OF
General Letchitsky to the command OF
the northern front, announced IN Petro-
grad to-day, is interesting. He was
General Brusiloff's right-hand man in
the great drive of last year, and his
forces occupied all of Bukowina, capt
uring tens of thousands OF Austrlans
during his advance. He was recently
in command of the central front and
Petrograd has evidently moved him 10
meet the German menace in the nortn.
Berlin is reticent as TO the opera
tions near Riga, conSnting itself with
the announcement that fighting sctiy-
ity has been revived there, at Dvinsk,
before Tarnopol and along the Zbrocz
River. which forms the frontier be,
tween Galicia and Russia. Petrograd
amplities this statement and declares
that the lighting in al these places
is accompanied by vigorous enemy
artillery fire. IL is wholly possible
that the Germans mean TO force the
Russians back along their whole west
ern front. particularly through press
ure applied on the two HANKS. IN Ia
Liza and Podolia and in Courland.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-Earnest
cooperation with the government in all
of its plans for the war was pledged
to Secretary Daniels to-day by the 1000
mechanics and other civilian employees
Of the Philadelphia Navy Yard. A del
egation from the men called and pre-
sented a memorial, signed by the en-
tire force, expressing desire, by ex-
ample, TO stimulate all others to the
fullest performance of their duty to
the country at this time"
This reassuring message came as
rumors were being discussed of a
threatened strike in the New York
Navy Yard. 1t strengthened the con-
fidence of officials that there will be
no labor troubles to disturb the navy's
great building operations.
There has been no official informa-
ton of impending difficulties, and it is
believed that the revised pay schedules
to be put into effect, probably next
month, will remove any dissatisfaction
that may prevail. The joint army and
navy wage board, now receiving reports
from all yards and arsenals expects to
make its recommendation shortly.
Pledge Loyal Support

trades employed at the plants. The
memorial said, in part:
eve promise to stand by you, shoul-
der to shoulder, in carrying out meas
ures for the development Of our navy
and particularly for the betterment Of
this navy yard. We promise to notify
our superiors of any indication of dis
loyalty on the part of any employe
working for the government.
I'VE have watched with pride the
growth and expansion OF cur navy
yard, and we believe that it is largely
due to your confidence in the men who
are engaged here. No Secretary of the
Navy has been fairer TO mechanics and
civil employees than you have been, and
we take special pride in assisting you
in the development of your plans. We
have noted your efforts to make the
environment of the Philadelphia Navy
Yard fit place for the young men who
are sent here for preparatory training
in the navy, and we desire TO express
our warmest approval of your action
in this regard.
with the fullest confidence that our
country is in the right in this war,
and relying on the wisdom of Presi-
dent Wilson. we earnestly pray for a
speedy success for our cause, and we
pledge you by our work to do our full
share toward the victory which will
ultimately be ours"

Notwithstanding efforts to hasten a
