So far. the German line from

Official copies Of the peace pro-
pOsals OF the central powers have
not as yet been acted upon by

ed that the attitude OF official
Washington does not encourage
the hope entertained by the
enemy that the allies can begin to
enter into negotiations at a time
when Germany's armies are IN re-
treat and when marshal Foch's
mastery strategy is beginning TO
bear fruit
So far as press comments re-
fleet the situation in France and
England. there is no disposition
in those countries to consider the
effort OF the enemy other than a
new maneuver which promises
little more than what might have
been expected from the former
peace offers made by the central
powers
