CARRANzA'S PEACE

Washington, Mar. 20.-While reject

"The president regrets that, howev-

Rush Of Trading
On Wall Street Starts

New York, Mar 20.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Trading today was again well above
the million mark 'and prices advanced,
with few exceptions, two to five points
Or more above the already higher level
established within the past week.
The possibility OF President Wilson
declaring a state of war following to-
days cabinet meeting had tendency
TO restrict trading in the afternoon.
The attractive level to which prices
advanced drew realizing sales as the
session progressed, although recessions
were more or less narrow.

attainment Of the high Ideals OF Gen
cral Carranza by the corporations of
other neutral governments in the use
of their good offices and friendly me-
diation to bring about the end of the
terrible war which is being wagcd be-
tween the great powers of Europe
At the outset of his note President
Wilson called attention to the break in
relations with Germany and emphasiz-
ed the German Mexican-Japanese plot
recently uncovered, The reason for
mentioning this affair is taken TO
mean that Carranza, despite several re-
quests, has never disavowed his sympa-
thy with or knowledge of the plot.
These circumstances make it impos-
sible for the United States to partiel-
pate in Carranza s proposal for Joint
neutral mediation at present.
AS for placing an embargo on ship
ments to the allies, the note points
out that allied control of the seas is
the only reason why munitions can
not reach Germany and that the Unit
ed States is well within its rights in
furnishing supplies and munitions. to

That is true without question. And it is precisely
the result that long-heraded Congressional leaders
looked for when the details of war legislation had
been assimated by the people of the country and
when their and fathers and seethearts began

Let no say that the battle for Freedom
is the battle of the American republic. Nor let
any say that the of world democracy finds
no willing or active adherents among the American
people The truth that America awakening to the
call of the hour and from every Of the nation
there is energetic and enthusiastic rally to the cause
Long ago the Kaser's agents in America informed
that bigoted individual that America would not sup
port her President no matter how nsstenty he pointed
wrongs done to this country The Kaiser was con-
ceited enough to believe that his own judgment in
that direction would be justified and he was still more
creduous and listened attentvely and deghtedly when
his agents reported these things to him. Now he finds
that he wrong and his informants and spies we're
wrong And heaven pleasing, he will soon find out,
in fact that everything is wrong. far as he is con-
cerned, and there be right until the cause of
the wrong has been removed.

The country is reconciled, but not pleased, with the

towns Of the country it cannot be obtained matter
how high the price mounts.
This should have the instant attention of the fuel
administration, as well all other agencies charged
with the conduct of countrys affairs in the present
crisis.
With an increase in the coal production and ap-
probable gain in efficiency of rail operations the
try over, it is uncomfortable that should suffer in
this manner.
Time is golden just in the solution of this vast
problem. An hour is worth days later when
the country is actually in the grip of winter.
Incidentally, if the fuel administration does not
believe that two three months hence will wit
ness an alienation of the present difficulty, why not

Germany's Waning Power.

Those who still doubt that it IS going to be the
high privilege and fortune of American armies to as
sist in the final smashing of the Kaiser have but to
study what has been going on along the British front
since August l. The Prussian military machine is still
formidable but the ascendancy has definitely passed
to the allies.
Col e. D. Swnton inventor of the British tanks
and one of the big men in the British cabinet
which directs British army movements, recently said
representative of this paper that in the early part
of the war the French and the British virtually fought
the Prussians with bare fists and bayonets. He meant
the Germans had tremendous superiority in guns and
ammunition
Slowly the allies increased their manufactures until
they finally exceeded the Germans
The results tell the story. Since August the
British have taken $1,000 German prisoners the
Germans have taken 1905.
British captures of German artillery demonstrate
that when the British determined upon offensive
they were able to push it home They got back into
the enemy territory where the artillery planted
On the contrary, the fact that Germans captured no
English guns shows where they made counter
attacks they unable to push them through the
frst-line trenches
This fact is highly significant than any or

bound TO have tremendous effect upon the morale
OF the contending forces. Tommy goes into battle
