NO MAKESHIFT PEACE
est. Louis Republic)


 The Teutonic peace duet-von Herng the trombone and Czernin the flute-leaves us cold The affair is perfunctory. The respective Ere miers of Germany and Austria talk as if they hated to- but had to do so by imperial order They make an effort the clear-cut outspoken state ments of President Wilson and Lloyd George, but the result is evasive shuffng which lacks Sln cerity and strength
 The German Chancellor plays high as he con siders befitting the spokesman of the dominant mill tary faction. While apparently accepting certain m o the propositions laid down by President Wilson ne brushes others aside as matters for consideration De tween Germany and individual members of the En and rejects others, like the proposed cesson AlsaceLorraine to France with scomfu empha sis

This she is willing to forego however, if allowed hold on to the plundel she has accumulated during many years of predatory dealing
 The long-delayed replies of the Central Powers to the peace terms of Great Britain and the United States, which were indorced by all the other anti Germanic Allies, may be summed up follows: 1.-They are perfunctory, made only because some thing demanded and expected. 2.-They hold out no hope of just, reasonable and permanent peace 3-They are an invitation merely a prolonged de bate whih could lead only to makeshift agreement a compromise that would satisfy nobody
 The conclusion, therefore is that the war must fought Germany will accept other decision Austria is with Germany, matter how pteousy she may whine for peace.
