 But the President has laid down the demand that the armistice shall make it impossible for the German army to again renew hostilities.
 Evacuation Left Unsaid.
 No mention was made in the note about evacuation of invaded terri tory, but far more than that would be necessary to meet the Presidents s demand.

 They would include conditions under which German armies would evacuate Belgium and France; occu- patton of strategic points in Ger many by allied and American forces so as to remove the possibility of renewal of hostilities, demobiliza- ti0n of the German army, restrictions on the manufacture of supplies and munitions, occupation of strategic naval bases and the treatment of German vessels and submaries.

 In this connection, it was noted thaS the government now in power has made it plain that there is no thought of restoring Alsace-Lor- raine to France, a condition of peace on which the United States and the allied governments are thoroughly agreed.
 On the other hand. persistent ru- mors continue to reach Washington that Germany desires peace at any cost, and one report has said that Rehabilitation of armed forces in the interior has already begun.
 President Wilson has pointed the way to peace and shrewd observers believe that the German people now thoroughly realize the only condi- lion on which it can be brought about. ?
