BATTLEFIELD TO DECIDE,
GERMAN PRESS DECLARES
General Comment on Utterances Of
Lord Cecil and Sena-
tor Lodge.

COPENHAGEN, August 27.-The re-
ply Of Lord Robert Cecil. British un-
der secretary of foreign affairs. made
on August 20 to the address before
the German Society two days earlier
Of DR.. w. s. Solf. the German colonial
secretary. and the speech of Senator
Lodge Of Massachusetts,, republican
leader of the Senate, continue to be
commented upon by the Berlin press
along the same lines-that Germany
row must stand or fall fighting.
Theodore Wolff, writing in the Ber-
lin Tageblatt, after referring to Lord
Robert Cecirs declaration that he
himself is an advocate of peace. says:
I'VE are confronted with the tragic
inescapable necessity of holding out
with quiet determination until Lord
Robert Cecirs love of peace shall dis
play itself more peacefully"
DR.. Wolff declares 1t is untrue that
DR.. Solfs speech was of a sort never
heard before the fortunes of war
changed. but. he adds:
1T Is correct that only recently the
great advocates of force were able
to make much noise and even the
progressive party was carried away
by the fiery eloquence of Herr Muller
of Meiningen, who made a few false
steps into the camp of the annexa-
tionists."
The vossiche zeitung of Berlin
asks: Where is that peaceful spirit
of President Wilson, who once de-
clared there must be neither conquer
ers nor conquered?"
The Vossische Zeitung declares 1t
always knew that England's war aims
was the political and economic sub
jugation of Germany.
after the sacrifices in men and money
made by England and the United
States the outcome of the war is to
be profitable for them it means that
peace must bring not only the COM
plete powerlessness Of the German
empire but also, il possible, that of all
Europe as the proper reward for the
Anglo-Sax nations"
Count Reventlow, writing in the
Tageszeitung, sees in the reception of
DIR. Solfs speech by the entente coun-
tries justification of the pan-German
views and he says it is a heavy blow
for the German advocates of peace by
understanding.
.It is possible that this reception of
DR.. Solf's speech will form whole
some lesson for German cherishers of
Illusions" he adds.
The Norddeutsche Al1gemeine lei
tung says Lord Robert Cecil's speech
should ''disillusionize those Germans.
who did not realize that words and
phrases about high ideals only re-
suited in making the enemy 6oubt the
strength and will of the Germans"

|AUTO owners MUST
| QUIT SUNDAY DRIVING

Owners of automobiles east of the
Mississippi river have been called
upon by the United States Fuel Ad-
ministration to cease the use on
Sundays of all classes of automo-
biles with a few designated excep-
tions, and motor cycles, until further
notice, as gasoline conservation
measure.
Only voluntary compliance with the
letter and spirit of the request will
prevent the issuance of a mandatory
order prohibiting the use of gaso-
line on Sundays, it was declared by
Fuel Administrator Garfield. The
same request is made of owners of
motor boats and of automobiles for
hire.
Motor vehicles to which the re-
strictions do not apply were an
nounced as:
Tractors and motor trucks employed
in actual transportation of freight.
Vehicles of physicians used in per-
formance of professional duties.
Ambulances, fire apparatus, police
patrol wagons, undertakers' wagons
and conveyances used for funerals.
Railway equipment using gasoline.
Repair outfits employed by tele-
phone and public service companies.
Motor vehicles on errands of neces-
sity in rural communities where
transportation by steam or electricity
is not available.
The action was taken by the fuel
administration, it was stated, to meet
a threatened shortage of gasoline for
shipment overseas, created by in
creased domestic demands and ex-
tensive military operations in France
