New York, Jan. S.--President Will
sons rcsa tement of war aims before
congress was reflected in the stock
market today by a reaction Of two to
five points after an early advance Of
one to three points.
The selling seemed to be based on
the theory that the central powers
would refuse to meet the terms pro-
posed, particularly those involving the
evacuation of territory and the de-
mand for the abandonment Of Alsace-
Lorraine, and that therefore peace
was remote.
Much of the early advance was due
to short covering and that same ele-
ment was a factor in the later re-
versal, renewing its commitments at
the first signs of hesitation. Offerings
of United States Steel contributed
heavily to the setback. that stock fall

to the state Legislature both houses to-
day ratified the proposed prohibition
amendment to the federal constitution.
Only eight dissenting votes were cast.
The Mississippi assembly is the first

today, explained that it is not intend

ence with state taxation of railroad

roads on the basis of the standard re-
| turn proposed, would be $685., 1000, 900

ating income for the three years end
| ing last June 80. This compensation
| basis is permissive, not mandatory,
and any railroad may enter suit for
higher rate if 1t chooses
| Mr.. Kruttschnitt praised the work
of the railroad war board, now dis
solved, in eliminating much competi-
| ton and pooling railroad facilities to
| a great extent under private control.
He said the results and the necessity
OF government control showed en-
phatically that antitrust and anti
! pooling laws will have to be repealed.
Cummins Asks Questions.
Senator Cummins asked Mr.
| hruttschnitt about the advisabiity of
basing the railroads compensation on
the market value of the stocks, which
opened a, lengthy discussion of the
value of securities. Mr.. kruttschnitt
said the value of the stock Of the
Southern Pacific had fallen 55 points
in the last ten years and in that
period the company had put s400,-
100000 into the property, showing
that the market quotations have little
or nothing to do with the intrinsic
value of the property.

Kruttschnitt said, We're the slowest to

The most important of all is that

the opportunity for special training
under officers who are to command
them in the task which they are call
ed upon to perform.
THE general conditions of the
struggle this year have been very diff
ferent from those contemplated at the
conference in November, 1916. The
great general and simultaneous Of
fenslVe then agreed upon did not ma

leaders made fine effort, not only
failed to give the help expected but
even failed to prevent the enemy from
transferring forty fresh divisions from
her front in exchange for tired ones

THE combined Franco British of

the circumstances the task of the Brit

heavier throughout the year than
originally was anticipated, and the

was greater than he or we expected.

SWITZERLAND FILLED WITH
GERMAN PEACE MlSSARTES
DURING RECENT DRIVE.
PROFESSOR HERRON, SEEING
THROUGH SCHEME, OBJECT
OF GERMAN IATTACk.
6By the Associated Press.)

Geneva, July Representative OF
the Entente nations here have been
cheered by evidence that American
statesmen apparently see clearly that
Germanys victories have not been
primarily military; but have been
largely due to an underground pro-
paganda, preparing the way for mill
tary advance and making it relative
ly easy.
They point out that each German
military offensive has been accom-
panied by a peace offensive prepared
with the same scientific precision and
care as the movement on the fighting
front. When the present offensive in
France was well begun, Switzerland
suddenly swarmed with peace ennis
saries OF the German government,
seeking channels for negotiating
peace, plotting to undermine the faith
and loyalty Of the Allies and espe-
cially the moral and military prepar.
alton of America.
I'm Switzerland some of this peace
offensive has been borne by Profess
sor George d. Heron Notwithstand-
ing Professor Herron's repeated in
sistence that he had no mandate to
represent any government or any
body, the German Foreign Office
could not believe it.
The Associated Press correspon-
dent is informed that DIR. De Jong van
Beck en- Donk, Dutch pacifist, had
made repeated efforts here to forward
Ia message to Colonel E. M House,
President Wilson'S friend and reput-
ed advisor The Dutch pacifist either
represented or pretended to repre-
sent DR.. Soft, the German Colonial
Minister, who met Colonel House in
Germany before America entered the
war Professor Heron declined to
transmit the message.
When the last peace offensive be-
gan Mr. Heron notified friends in
all the Allied countries and then the
Swiss press, and in conference in
Geneva, exposed the whole German
campaign.
! And now Germany, not content
with being at war with America, is
making war upon the American. Mr..
Heron is violently assailed in the
German press, and in the neutral
press under German control. 1t is as
serted that Switzerland is the thea
tire of vast American conspiracy
