"The president knows what he is

Failure Of any of the European pow.

az the state department that there is
nothing in the note from the vatican
that actually called for a reply. Ameni.

No government has given notice Of
any intention Of letting President VIII.
sons reply stand as a statement Of its
position, and it is not assumed by ad.
ministration officials that just that
position would be taken, because there
are certain phases Of the situation which
President Wilson did not comment on.
There is an impression, however that
the European countries may be con.

to be conservative, declares that the
battle is the greatest Of the war.
For eleven days the Italians have
progressed steadily on a seventy.mile

destroyed the airpanes at Pola seems
to be confirmed, since only, one enemy

both reflectors OF vatican opinion.
which take up this point without enter.
ing into the merits of the presidential
response, their comment contrasting
American cleverness in business with
what is alluded to as an American
lack Of knowledge of diplomatic usage.
The criticism is based, for one thing,
on the reply being signed by Secretary
of State Lansing, while the papal note
was signed by Pope Benedict himself.
This. according to these newspaper
critics, required that the American an.
swer be signed by President Wilson
himself. The same organs allege i'm.
propriety in 'the fact that publication
of the presidents answer was permitted
before the text was delivered to the
pope where the papal note was sent to
England on August for delivery to
America and was not published in Rome
until August 16
Objection also is made that the reply
was telegraphed which is pointed to as
not in accord with diplomatic usage
for such important documents. which
are invariably despatched by courier.
Finally, the newspapers find i'm the

Berlin Cvia London Sept. 1.-Presi
dent Wilson's reply 10 the pope's peace
note was published generally by the
newspapers this morning. and in the
editorial comment Mr.. Wilson is bitterly
denounced. The Lokal Anzeiger says
President Wilson declines the popes
mediation with the same mass of swol
len phrases with which he has already
satiated the German peoples. We are
told that the war is not being waged
against the German nation but against
their masters
The absolute mendacity Of Mr.. VII.
sonS phraseOlogy becomes apparent
when his dictum az TO the rights OF
nations, who are capable OF shaping
their own destinies. is opposed to the
wish Of the German people To be gov.
erned by these very masters Mr.. vii.
son therefore does not intend To give
US our liberty but to deprive us Of
liberty 10 arrive at our own decisions
For that matter, this whole mass Of
words has as its sole purpose the ex.
preston Of the intention To prolong the
war at any price. In this resolve. Mr..
Wilson. who is fighting FOR the freedom
OF mankind, orders peace meetings dis.
persed and pacifists arrested.
This war has exposed in lis naked.
ness much that is low and contemplate.
Its remaining task was 10 exhibit "a
hero-like cold mathematician whom "a
singular fate in momentous hour has
given the power over one hundred mil.
lion people"
