ANSWER is CALLED
"ULTRA-SENSATI0NAL' y

London. Jan. l0.-Pre-
mier BRAND to-day delivered
to Ambassador Sharp at
Paris the Allies reply TO
President Wilson's peace
note, says an Exchange Iele-
graph dispatch from the
French capital. The note
will be published on Friday
morning.
The delays in sending the
reply were due to changes
suggested by one Of the En-
tente powers. but these
proved to be largely changes
in phraseology.
The reply is considerably
longer than was the answer
10 the German peace pro-
posaIs, and contains approx
mately 200 to ! 800 words.
Its statements are more spe-
cihc, but they are still gen.
cral and somewhat guarded
in character.
Marcel Hutin. Of Paris,
who is we'll known as a jour
nalist. says that the reply
will be "ultra-sensational."

Pelrograd. Jan. 10 The political
situation during the last two months,
for which the word "crisis" seems en-
tirely inadequate. has taken a new
turn with the resignation OF Alexander
Trepof from the Premiership and Of
Count Ignatief, Minister Of Public In
struction, and the appointment o. a
new Premier
The official announcement OF this
change, falling upon country con-
tinuously excited and emotionally OK
hausted by the drama Of swift changes
and climaXes. hardly created the effect
which would have been natural under
other circum stances.

reverse direction Prince Golitzin.

the extreme conservative group, who

little sympathy for the progressive
tendencies of the new regime.
The ostensible reason for his re-
placement of Trepof was the apparent
inability of the latter to preserve a
strong, united Cabinet. Il had been
known for weeks that there was a great
divergence in point Of view between
two distinct groups in the Cabinet, in
one of which stood Trepof and Igna-
tief. and in the other ". Protopopoff,
the Minister OF the Interior. The fall
Of one group or the other became
essential.

Thus, even after peace, it will be
Decessary to keep the belt pulled tight,
and there must be further sharp ration
ing. The yearning cry: Give US peace!
Give us more breadi' has no inner basis.
OF this we must remain conscious, and
not cry for peace on account of the
scarcity from which We suffer-
The food situation was summed up as
follows by Adolph Won Batocki, head of
.he German Food Regulation Board, in
an interview with Swedish journalists
as quoted in dispatch from Berlin:
"While there never has been any
question Of food difficulties in Hungary,
kustria's grain harvest possibly was
not quite sufficient 10 last until the new
harvest. and Germany therefore con-
tempated delivery Of some hundred
thousand tons Of grain to Austria. But
now Austria's share of the Rumanian
supplies enables her to- dispense with
the contributions from Germany"
Believes Foes Worse OF
Batocki asserted he considered the
situation in hostile countries to be in
many cases worse than within the Cen
trail Empires.
The War Ministry has made publ.
an appeal on behalf Of war invalds.
asking especially that they be given
work whenever possible and never
false sympathy by the purchase of
postal cards and knick-knscks' The
appeal says:
Even with the most favorable peace
there will be no prospect for a long
time of sufficient wealth to enable the
state, wholly or even in large part, to
support its invalids. Therefore, char
ity will not suffice. Work alone uplifts
and cnnobles; even the poorest work
creates and sustains health"
The appeal warns against noticing or
OIL invalids wounds.
