Peace Offers.

London, Feb. 12.--President Wilson $
address is given the same prominence
that all his utterances receive IN the
morning newspapers, but the text reached
the newspapers too late for more than
perfunctory comment on a few outstand-
ing sentences The Presidents attitude
towards the speech of Count Won Hert-
ling receives the main attention and IN
this the President is regarded as having
gone TO the heart of the matter.
The Times sees an important refuta-
ton of 'the Bolshevik allusion that
Prussian militarism can be exercised
by rhetoric" and commends tho serene
confidence with which President Wilson
adheres to the belief that the war Will not
end without establishing the reign of
right and justice.
The Daily News believes 1t was not an
accident that the Presidents reply to
Won Hertling and Count Czernin was
delivered on the eve of new session of
the British parliament and thinks that
It's significance will not be lost in the
House of Commons, in view of condI-
