Austria's peace conference note, Ger
many's peace offer to Belgium and the
scream of the Kaiser at Essen were
all due directly to the Allies American
victories, Secretary Daniels said today
at the graduation of 6i6 ensigns from
the Naval Academy.
IF the Allied forces had not won
militaiy victories" said Daniels. no
such remarkable speech as Wilhelm
made to the workers in krupps would
have been delivered. the tender to Bel
gium would not have been made and
the Austrian feeler would not have been
put forth.
There is a lesson for US today in the
sequence of these events Military sue
cess is the only argument that German
militarists can now understand
The Allied advances are alone respon-
sible for the offer of peace to Belgium
and the proposition of the Austrian
Emperor for a conference.
1.-THE American courage on land and
sea wrote the first notes Of the peaC"
offensive. Having failed Of their ohi"c-
tives by brutal disregard Of the hu-
name stondards If warfare, the German
