GERMANY CANNOT WIN
 THE WAR BY SUBJUGATION

BERLIN, May 29.-Everywhere, even in government circles there IS keen disappointment depicted over the failure of Imperial Chancellor Beth -Hollweg to state that peace terms of some sort with some nation were not contemplated. When the Chancellor appeared before the Reichstag recently and said that the present time was not for public ut terances of probable peace terms even with Russia he started something.
 Socialist Leader Ledebour declared today in the Reichstag that it was impossible for the Germans to win the war by subjugation and expressed the conviction that a revolution must happen in Germany as in Russia.

FEAR POLITICS
 AFFECT DRAFT
MAY DEFEAT SUCCESS
 OF CONSCRIPTION
Officials Fear Political Pull May Cause Exemption of Many Persons Eli gible for Service-Heavy Penalties are Provided.

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 29.- It is feared in official circles that community politics may do much to defeat the success of the conscriptiOn plan. As passed the bill eXempts no one, the rich, the poor, the laborer and the idle, all coming under it's provisions. and the securing of sub stitutes is prohibited. Unless stringent measures are adopted to check the display of partiality and political pull, it is feared that the local boards may exempt many citizens illegally and doctors class as unfit some who are perfectly fit to serve. To obviate this as far as possible heavy penalties will be inflicted upon officials wrongfully eXempting any person from duty in the army.
