This is not the first report en-
anating from Germany recently that
the Pope is about to make another
peace move
The Neueste Nachrichten of Mu.
mich, Bavaria, according to a London
dispatch of April %, said the Pope
would make peace offer MS soon
as the western offensive had assum-
ed new phase.
The Bavarian newspaper declared
the move would take the form of "a
word of warning addressed to the
universal conscience"
A dispatch from Stockholm Tues
day reported message from Basic
announced that Emperor Charles OF
Austria was making a new peace Of
fer, appealing to Italy to consider it
in her own interests.
That a peace offensive" would be
made by the central powers in the
event the German offensive on the
west appeared abortive has been pre-.
dicted frequently in allied capitals.
This may be the beginning.
Pope Benedicts peace proposals
last August were preceded by reports
through neutral countries that he
was about to take such action.
The Pope proposed the restoration
OF territory captured by the central
powers; peaceful settlement OF the I
Alsace-Lorraine. Trentino and Polish
questions. reduction of all ornaments |
and freedom of the seas.
President Wilson, in replying for
the American and Entente govern.
