VATICAN SEES
LONG DURATION
OF PRESENT WAR

Washington, Jan. 11.-President
Wilson's restated war aims, If enforced
literally, will mean indefinite prolon-
cation of the war instead of early
peace, according to Interpretation of
Vatican officials, it was learned
through semi-official sources today.
They feel the Presidents program
is one which the allies know Germany
cannot and will not accept
While the Wilson programme has
been received with acclaim by all en-
tente countries except possibly Greece
and the Balkan state, the Central
powers will refuse to consider it, high
church dignitarieS believe.
"Of the fourteen Wilson provisions
five, or at the most six, give oppor-
tunity for general agreement" an Of
ficial said. The others are impos-
sible' at present"
That the allies are firmly convinced
Of their ability to crush Germany is
the Vatican belief, it is said Further
more, it is the intention of the en-
tente to proIong the war another sum
mer unless Germany sues for peace,
the holy father believes.
Further peace suggestions by the
Pontiff are now virtually impossible,
it is said. While the pope has stead
tasty declined to interfere since his
last efforts were ignored, an appeal to
the belligeTents to lay down their arms
before they became SO exhausted they
would be unable to enjoy peace bene-
fits was contemplated, it was learn
| ed.
The success of such an appeal would
| depend entirely upon the mood of the
| belligerents.
America has not yet felt the scourge
of war Until she does-unti1 the
mounting casualty lists bring home
the real significance attitude of
| humility necessary to bring the bellig-
erents together on a common ground
will not manifest itself, the Vatican
believes.
The holy father and Vatican circles
are far from in accord with the Presi-
dents views on Italy, 1t was admitted.
Austria, it is known, is the most IA
vored" nation. while Italy occupied
the other extreme-the least favor
ed"

worldly import while commendable
and desirable will not bring peace,
Vatican officials say. But peace is of
more immediate importance than the
designation of boundaries, restoration
of devastated territory or economical
and political readjustment, they say.
These differences ultimately will ad-
just themselves and should not be al
lowed to stand in the way Of bringing
the present slaughter to an end, they
add.
Truth and justice will triumph
eventually, though immediate recogni-
ton of principles cannot be secured
even through force Of arms" church
officials insist
At least another year of war will
result from the entente stand, Off
Gals believe. At the end of this per-
iod the warning nations may become
convinced that a decisive victory is
impossible.

An American woman was present

Built Miles of Trenches
During their time at the front the

IN the muscles, where an inhamma-
ton is set up in the nearby tissues.
Hague has said, that SCOUT is rheu-
matism, and rheumatism is gout.1
If uric acid is formed in excess within
the body it IS passed ON to the kid
neys, which act as q filter to pass
off this poison If the excess is not
e1cre5ed by the kidneys, it is distzi-
buted thru the tissues. The choice
sites for such storage are in the joints,
mnscle-eheaths, where the circulation
is weakest, and where also the alkalin-
ity of the blood Is lowest. Conse-
quently We must do everything to
throw off this uric acid poison, and
simple methods are best. Flush the
kidneys by drinking to glasses of
water between meals. A pint of hot
water a half hour before meals.
Take Anunc, double strength, (60c
package), three times a day for
awhile 1nvigorate and assist the kid
neys to flush out the uric acid poisons.
During winter months the circulation
is apt to be sluggish and the blood
stream retarded. If uric acid is pres
eut it is apt to clog the capillaries.
This accounts foF many acute condi-
tons, such as headache, neuralgia,
gastric disturbances, and duh mind.
As the condition progresses, we often
have lpmbago, disease of the heart
and arteries, breaking down of the
kidneys, rheumatism and equity symp-
toms. Eat less meat, drink more
water, and take ANUR1C double or
triple strength) after meals and at bed
time for several weeks at time, and
you will be free from uric acid and
the diseases that follow.

Washington, Jan. IL. - Another
days study Of President Wilson's
speech brings out the fact that too
little consideration has been given of
the meaning of Covenant Ill, to wit;
'@The removal, SO far as possible, of
all economic barriers and the establ-
lishment of an equality of trade con-
ditions among all the nations consent
ing to the peace and associating them
selves for its maintenance
Some members of Congress have
jumped to the conclusion that the
proper Interpretation of this is a lev
cling of tariff schedules, and possibly
a post bellum condition of free trade,
They know that Col House is, in the
CRY, a free trader.
Apparently, however, the domestic
preferences did not enter into Presi-
dent Wilson's mind when he made the
statement and there is no evidence
that he has consulted any of the avail
able tariff experts in his own party
in coming to the above conclusion.
Reply Far-Reaching
In hts December address to Con
gress the President said:
TT might be impossible in such IN
toward circumstances to admit Ger
many to the free economic intercourse
which must inevitably spring out OF
the other partnership of real peace
Last Saturday Lloyd George said:
Economic conditions at the end Of
the war will be in the hfbhest degree
difficult owing to the diversion of hu-
man effort to warlike pursuits. There
must follow a world shortage of raw
materials, which will increase tht
longer the war lasts And it is fneyi-
table that those countries which have
control of the raw material will de
sire to help themselves and thei1
friends first"
Tuesdays pronouncement by Presi
dent Wilson was subtle, but goes far
and that of Lloyd George is blunt ant
capable of but one meaning. Take tn
part of his sentence which says 'SThos
countries which have control of tn
raw materials will desire to he'll
themselves and their friends first"
