WOULD HAVE D. c.
GET WATER FROM
PATUSENT RIVERS

A complete engineering investiga-
t3en Of the possibilities OF securing
an additional District water supply
from the Patuxent, the Middle Patux-
ent, and the Little Patuxent rivers, is
recommended to the Washington sub
urban sanitary commission, and the
Federal Government by Robert 3.
Morse, chief engineer of the commits
sion
Mr.. Morse points out that a supply
sufficient for an additional million OF
population here, for all or the nearby
Maryland communities, for Laurel,
and for Camp Meade, could be OBJ
tanned in this way, probably at very
reasonable cost.
TIVE water SystennS
II would give the Capital two dis
tfnct sources of supply and two indie
pendent conduit systems that would
prevent a breakdown in the system
through accident or design.
Previous investigation has been
made OF the Patuxent as a source of
water supply for the District, but
Mr.. Morse says that the Middle and
Little PatuXents have never been
considered. The drainage areas OF
these two are near the PatuXent and
thew could deliver 100. OO0. 900 gallons
Of water q day. Present consumption
in Washington is but about 65,OO0'oOO
gallons q day.
Water Il Softer.
In addition Mr.. Morse points out
that the average turbidity Of the
waters Of the Patuxent is less than
that Of the Potomac and the water
Is softer, being b Der for Industrial
and household uses He shows how
the Patuxent supply could be eco
ironically combined with-the present
Potomac supply to meet all needs-s
Mr.. Morse lists the following ad-
vantages to Washington in the use
OF Patuxent waters:
An additional supply Of 100000 600
gallons q day, instead Of 6O.OOo'OOo
DEVELOPMENT of each OF the Patux-
ent rivers can be made independently
as the water is needed, providing for
gradual and economic expansion.
Construction of the conduit would
be -economical-in that II would be in
an open cut, could be made partly OF
concrete and all construction is on a
railroad, electric line and state high
way.
Safer for Gimp.
Camp Meade would get a better H.
tered water supply and one that was
safer.
MI. Morse suggests that the gov
erumen1 take over the Washington
Baltimore boulevard from Laurel TO
run the conduit to Washington. He
concludes that every effort should be
put forth by the state OF Maryland
b facilitate such a development

PEACE OFFENSIVE LAUNCHED
FOR MILITARY PURPOSES

New York.-Once more it is essen
tial for the American, people to rec
ognize that they are in the presence
OF a peace offensive launched for mil.
itary purposes. This offensive is de-
signed to benefit the military situation
OF the German by saving the German
army from the Immediately grave re-
suits OF recent defeats and from the
later disastrous consequences to the
militaristic hierarchy il the army suf-
fers wholly decisive defeat.
Germany wants peace. yes. but sho
wants peace on her own terms. having
failed to impose victorious peace on
her own terms. She is not in the least
convinced that she will have to accept
our terms. Her statesmen are now
maneuvering TO disrupt our alliance
and at the same time to get the serti-
ment OF the German people behind
them again by establishing the fact
that the enemy demands that Ger
many shall pay the price OF her
crimes and meet the demand for res
toration. restitution. reparation. These
demands are just AZ unwelcome to
the peasant as the junker and neither
is yet ready to accept them.

NEW PEACE MOVE IS NOT AT
ALL POPULAR IN WASHINGTON

Washington.-The new peace move
Is not popular here. IL il believed
that the President will give 1t a quick
and decisive answer.
Leaders OF Congress are unwilling to
negotiate with Germany for peace.
Here and there a member OF the
house or senate who hesitated about
entering the fight against German au.
tocracy thinks that it would be well
to discuss terms with the Berlin gov
ernment. but the more sturdy con.
gressmen believe that the President
should turn the proposition down fiat.
There is very little sympathy here
for Germany. Austria or Turkey. and
a majority OF the senator's and repre-
sentatives hope that the president will
give quick short answer to the Ger.

OUR AViAToRs AGAIN COVER
THEMSELVES WITH GLORY

With the American Army North
west OF Verdun.-The American avia-
tors again covered themselves with
glory and performed almost the i'm
possible. Dawn broke with mists
heavy over the trenches and the coun-
try across which the Americans were
to 20. and 1t was hours before the
weather cleared sufficiently to permit
OF any observation to speak of.
The splendid laison that marked
the days operations was due In great
part to the work OF the aviators. who
countless times risked their lives in
reconnoitering, attacking the retreat.
ing Germans and bringing back re.
ports. German fiiers during the entire
morning swooped over the heads OF
the American infantry only few hun
dred meters above the earth. using
machine guns with telling effect until
driven off.

peace propos lls The indications are
that 1T will not be dispatc ched for .
day or two.
While there may be some question
as TO form OF the reply, there is no
question whatever as to it's nature.
1t may not use the short and forceful
term unconditional surrender" which
would reflect the sentiment which has
come from the spokesman OF the ma
tion, but 1t is sure to convey to the
German government clearly the fact
that nothing less than the terms al
ready laid down can be accepted.

note and that OF Baron Burian, the
Austro-fungarian foreign minister. in

Rome. forwarded by President Will
son, as requested by the central DOW
ers.
obviously the American govern
ment would not proceed to speak for
the other belligerents on a matter of
such Importance without consultation
among them. and. II is purposed to
avoid the mistake OF making curt
and peremptory rejection which could
be used by the central powers. before
their own people, to bolster up the
argument that they are waging a de
fensive" war and that the Objects of
the co-belligerents are to destroy
them"
Lacking Official announcements OF
what the President has done 1t is
highly probable that he had taken ono
OF these two courses:
Either he has asked Premiers Lloyd
George. Clemenceau and Orlando to
advise him OF their replies. or. more
likely still. the President already has
formulated reply and asked the pre-.
miers for their acquiescence.
