PEACE A NECESSITY
TO CENTRAL POWERS

London, Jan. 4.-The Daily News,
analysing the comments in the Ger
man newspapers on the entente reply
and citing reports of the sufferings of
the peoples of the central powers, sees
indications that the central powers do
not regard the prospect of negotiations
as ended and comes to the conclusion
that the time is fast approaching when
they must have peace at any cost. It
finds confirmation of this in Count
Andrassy's statement, saying:
Whatever the motives for the de-
cision of the central powers to submit

son, it becomes. more imperative for
the allies to make a clear. full and
