CAPITAL PUZZLED
BY REPORT SOFIA
SEEKS j. S. PEACE

The Capital today puzzled over the
report from Rome that King Ferdi-
nand of Bulgaria had sent a conf
Dental agent to Berne, Switzerland,
to present a peace proposal to the
United States through the American
legation there.
These reports declared that the
King was anxious to propose to the
United States that he desert the CEN
tral powers and join the allies on
condition that Bulgaria be guaranteed
possession of the territory which she
now holds. Officials of the Admins
tration were entirely without any con-
frmation of this extraordinary IN
tention, all of their information being
based on Italian press reports. Be-
cause of this they refused to discuss
the matter for publication. Privately
they expressed more or less distrust
of il, although 1t was accepted as q
possibility.
As a matter OF fact It was pointed
out that Bulgaria has been very much
out of the war for a long time. The
Bulgarian army has been doing little
fighting either for Germany or Aus
tria- It has been used to consolidate
the territory taken from Greece, Ser
bia, and Roumania, and only against
the last nations troops has the Bull
Earian army been in action lately.
Both Turkey and Bulgaria have
been reported here to be afraid that
they were simply to be used as pawns
in the war game.
