JNPREPARED FOR SUCH QUICK
MOVE BY PRESIDENT IN RE-
LECTION OF PoPE's PEACE
+ PROPOSALS.
THOUGHT WlLS0N'S PLAN
WILL IMPRESS RUSSIA
No Rejoiner From Vatican Is Expected
In Immediate Future Allied
Countries to Send Replies to
Pontiff, Endorsing Words
Of President Wilson.

Washington, Aug. 31.-Discussion of
President Wilson's rejection of the
Pope's peace proposals in diplomatic
circles revealed that even some of the
Allied governments were unprepared
for the prompt fashion in which the
President disposed of matter of such
tremendous Importance. There had
been no doubt at any time as to the
general nature of the reply and the
understanding is that the United
States was generally looked to as the
nation to speak first, but some of the
allied foreign officers, accustomed to
long deliberated moves in diplomacy,
regarded the exchanges that had been
going on between Washington and
their own capitals as barely completed
They had rather expected further dis
cussion of the time for dispatching
replies.
Had Good Reason.
It was recalled, however, by the
allied representatives in Washington
that President Wilson must have had
some good and sufficient reason for
acting so quickly. Speculation as
cribes the motive to a desire to i'm
press favorably the great Russian con-
vention at Moscow while that body still
is in a plastic and receptive state. 1t
also was suggested that the President
might have wished to anticipate by
his remarkable state paper obstructive
action by the pacific elements in and
out of Congress in the United States.
No PapaI Rejoiner Expected.
No rejoiner from the vatican is ex-
pected here in the immediate future
Comment from the press of Europe, in
Guiding Germany and Austria, is
awaited with interest. Bitter attacks
upon the American note by the Ger
man press and possibly condemnatory
speeches by German officials are fully
expected when the Presidents reply is
finally allowed to leak through the
censors to the German public. But
for the present, at least, no further at
tempts at peace negotiations on the
old basis, involving a continuance in
power of the present autocratic Ger
man regime, is anticipated.

GERMAN DIpl0i|'llACY
 IS AGAIN ASSAILED
Tageblatt Says Bryan Treaty
 Should Have Been Adopted

Berlin, Tuesday, April 3, Via Lon don, April 4.-"Prcsident Wilson s message is not surprising says the Tageblatt. But do the people of the United States have the same view? That is hard to say.
 German policy now pays the pen- atty for failure to conclude a Bryan treaty with the United States such as Great Britain and other great powers made. If such an agreement existed the United States would be compelled to submit the most important Ques- tions to . commission for investiga- ton before breaking off of relations. Such an investigation would take at least a year. It is not impossible that President Wilson would have availed himself of such Q way out of a serious situation
 .The president must realize that the results of his action will be far great CT for the United States than for us. it means the end of the Monroe Doc Urine. It means the end of the pol tcy of avoiding entangling alliances. which since the days of Washington has been an article of faith. It is a change from proyincialism to world citizenship. involving participation in European affars. The proclamation of the policy of imperialism which heretofore has been fought hardest tby the democrats, is now complete. The effect on internal affairs of the United States cannot he avoided.
 'But we shall not apDraise too lightly the consequence for us of the entry of America into the ranks of our enemies. The possibilities of in- jury to us by the sending of an ex- pedition to the western front or by cooperating with the so far insuffi- cient British fleet may be restricted. but any accession of strength to our enemies is undesirable, no matter how small. Nor do we forget that the Union, with 100.0o0,000 persons, is
