Washington.-The United States
will not conclude a separate peace
with Germany. Even should the Ber-
lin government offer terms acceptable
to this country, there will be no ac.
ton unless it were taken jointly with
the entente allies.
America mas been definitely COM

ed from widespread reports during
the last few days that Germany con-
templates a peace proposition to this
country, Cable dispatches from Eu-
rope further indicate the imperial
German government was about to
make another statement Of terms.
In February this government would
have accepted a discontinuance OF sub
marine warfare by Germany as a suf-
ficient concession to avoid a break
in relations. 1t was declared, even
should Germany withdraw every u
boat she had from the ocean, 1t would
not lead this nation to listen to her
peace proposals now

ROOSEVELT PLAN

HOUSE CHANGES ITS MIND AND
VOTES TO SEND ROOSEVELT
TO FRANCE.
SENATE FAVORS THE PLAN
Expeditionary Force, With the Former
President In Command, Has Been
Approved and Is Now Up To
President Wilson.

Washington.-Aided by enough DEM
ocrats, five of whom were from Mis-
sissippi, one from Arkansas and two
from Alabama, the republicans of the
house were able to override by a vote
Of 215 to 17S the conference report on
the military bill and recommit it with
instructions to incorporate the OFFER
of Col. Roosevelt to lead an expedi'
tionary force to France. The house
had previously rejected the Roosevelt
proposal by a vote Of 10 to 106.
The senate had voted to accept Col.
| Roosevelt's offer to raise a division or
two of volunteers not eligible to con.
scription, but in conference the house
conferees fought this provision SO
s~tubbornly that the senate conferees,
after weeks of resistance, yielded their
ground and agreed to report out the
bill minus the Objectionable feature.
AS the senate is on record as favor
ing the acceptance Of the Roosevelt
amendment, it is fair to assume that ii
will vote to sustain the action Of the
house. In that event it will be up to
President Wilson to p1a3 upon the mil
itary bill with the Roosevelt eXpedi
|tionary force for service abroad as its
most spectacular provision.
