from the recent proposals of Pope
Benedict If the %belligerent nations

sense of the pontiff's suggestions, EN-
peror Charles OF Austria-Hungary
says in his reply to the Vatican note.
The Emperor sees in the pope's peace
plan a suitable basis for starting nego-
tiations toward a just and lasting
peace, and expresses the hope that
the nations opposing his may be
animated by the same idea.
The Austrian emperor admits that
the future arrangement OF the world
must be based on the elimination Of
armed force and on the rule Of inter
national justice and legality.
Austria ungary's ruler received
the pontiff's note with a thankful
heart and with an expression of hope
that the pontiff's efforts may lead TO
the realization OF the emperor's de-
sire for a lasting and honorable peace
for all parties.

and ardent.

when these try to fie themselves
into jobs. So they become impa

usual manifestation is to "start

and Garry It on independently.
The war is too big for anyone to
win it single handed. AmeIia's
job Is too great for any i0depend-

team work to finish them. Any
