This new way to rid ones feet Of

THE POPE'S PEACE PROPOSITION

The master mind OF President VIII
son is equal to all emergencies. In
this world war no matter what crisis
has come up our great President was
equal to it. In answering the peace
proposition of the Pope, Woodrow,
Wilson has again showed his trans
cendent wisdom in dealing with crit
ical situation.
The President makes it plain that
treating with Germany for peace up
on the plan proposed by the Pope
means the making of the world an
armed camp. He shows that it is the
business of the United States to see
that the fate of all nations is not left
in the hands of the German autocrat.
