PEACE NOT QUESTION
 OF TERMS, SAYS TAFT


 PITTSBURG. Pa. Jan. 8.-Uphold- ing the morale of the allies is the most important task facing the allies this winter, asserted former President William H. Taft. in an address at a Red Cross meeting here yesterday.
 Discussing peace possibilities. the former president declared.
 Peace is not a question of terms. It is a question of downing the rul- ing power of Germany today-the German military autocracy. It is a question of helping the blinded misled German people to see how they are being fooled.
 The German people have become obsessed with megalomania, with grandeur. with the idea that they are supermen and are Gods chosen peo- pie. A people thus obsessed are just as dangerous in the family of nations and to permanent peace as a mad dog in the domestic family"
