PEACE OFFENSIVE

Many signs have been noted which confirm
possible cooperation of the neutral sovereigns
Washington expectations of the probability of
the Germans starting shortly great peace Of
fensive 1t has been learned from official
sources that moves by enemy agents in Switzer-
land are under close observation and that the
German policy is already foreseen.
In this connection Germany may try to take
advantage of the expected action by the Pope
A British admiralty dispatch by Wireless Press
from The Hague says that Cologne newspapers
announce that the Pope intends to issue new
proposal for peace to all the belligerent nations
at Whitsuntide CMay 19). The document is to
be of a more pressing nature than the former
one from the Vatican and will contain concrete
offers of mediation by the Holy See, with the
of Europe.
Similar information regarding the Pope's in
tention has reached Berlin, according to dis
patches, where it is stated to have been sympa-
thetically received.
So far as Germany is concerned, it is not ex-
Ipected that the peace suggestions will be offered
until the great attack in the Amiens-Arras re-
gion which Ludendorff is preparing has been
launched. After that is over Berlin is expected
to claim that it has won considerable advan-
tages, but that it is ready despite it's victories,
to offer peace on reasonable terms; that if they
are rejected the responsibility must rest on the
Allies, and that the Central Powers will pursue
their irresistible course until they have driven
their enemies into the sea.
The kind of terms that will probably be pro-
posed include the restoration of Belgium, the
cession of French Lorraine to France, no inden-
mites, and the return of the German colonies and
other conquests from the Central Powers The
Germans have realized that their treatment of
Russia is absolute obstacle to any govern
ment again putting faith in their promises, and
they may even express willingness to revise
the treaties of Brest-Litovsk and Bucharest.

POSTPONE CONSUMPTION

An order in council has been issued further
postponing the operation of the national service
act, or CONSUMPTION, as respects Ireland, beyond
May 1, to which it had been postponed previous
ly. Some of the morning newspapers OF London
say the posptonement is due to the governments
wish to introduce home rule bill and to see
what measure of success it gets before proceed
ing to enforce CONSUMPTION in Ireland, which, it
is said in some quarters, is not likely to be at
tempted in the next few weeks.
Opinion in the Hobbies of parliament is that a
home rule bill will be presented in the house of
commons next week, but the difficulties of draft
ing it have not been overcome entirely.
Members of the labor deputation who awaited
upon the premier in the house of commons IN
regard to Irish CONSUMPTION admit, says the
Daily Telegraph, that Mr.. Lloyd George spoke
frankly and firmly and listened patiently to the
statement prepared by Arthur Henderson upon
representations made by deputation of Irish
trades unionists and the lengthy explanation OF
J. H. Thomas, MP. for Derby, who had been in
Ireland on business of the Railway Mems Asso-
citation.
Premier Lloyd George promised that the cab
met would consider fully the representations OF
the laborites, but be held out no hope so far as
he was concerned personally for any change IN
the policy of the government.
In a speech the premier insisted that equal
rights of citizenship involved equality of duty
and responsibility and that Ireland cannot take
all the advantage accruing to its association with
Great Britain while refusing to bear share in
the burdens and sacrifices of the United King
dom.
The Daily Telegraph recalls that Ireland did
not refuse the gift of old age pensions from an
English parliament nor the advance of money
for the purchase of land and the building of la
borers' cottages.
Many laborites who oppose CONSUMPTION in
Ireland do SO not from principle but because they
believe it is not wise in existing circumstances.

FOOD FOR FRIENDSHIP

Food for friendship epitomizes the policy
which American Consul General Haynes recon-
mends to Washington regarding Finland. He
does not believe it is too late to for the
tente cause considerable part of the influence
we might have captured in Finland and which
the Finlanders, in truth, were anxious to offer
us if we had recognized the new republic and fol-
lowed up that recognitin with grain shipments.
Throughout the terrible Finland civil war
which now is closting with triumph for the
forces of law and order, Mr.. Haynes steadfastly
refused to be frightened or cajoled from his post
in Helsingfors, although the entente citizens
generally made frantic efforts to leave what they
believed to be sinking ship.
Mr.. Haynes continues to stand by Finland and
to believe that the German influences there can
be, if not counteracted, certainly considerably
lessened, with the result that the entente may
perhaps be able to maintain some connection
with Russia.
There are good prospects that Finand's legal
government, having now practically the
war by series of admirable encircling move
ments, forming one of the most interesting chap
ters in military science, will be in position to
decide which of the warning powers shall and
shall not use the Thurman line
Therefore, in an explicit official statement
dated Helsingfors, Sunday night, Mr.. Haynes
says that American wheat delivered to northern
Finland and distributed on the Belgian relief
basis. might prevent the country from passing
entirely into German vassalage.

To ORGANIZE c. {.
At 1ST CHRISTIE

The First Christian Church, corner
Gadsden and Seventh avenue, of the
city will organize a Young Peoples So
ciety of Christian Endeavor Sunday
evening at 7 o'clock At this present
time organizations of this nature are
much needed for the influence they
have with the service men. The
Christian church has been in need of
such an organization, and with the
splendid material and enthusiasm
among its young people, the society
promises great future. The organi-
cation is to be conducted by a Christ
ian Endeavor expert from one of the
northern states who is stationed on
guard duty here
The topic to be considered is Making
the Most of Ourselves. '-Eph. 4it-i6
This subject on personal efficiency
uwells on the physical, devotional, ed
ucational and business phrases of the
young people. An excellent topic for
an opening meeting. The leader is Pri-
waite Alexander Veneman, of company
j. 43rd infantry, stationed here at the
Armory hall. Everyone is invited to
attend.

ONE MORE ONSLAUGHT

The Allies now have a number of fresh di-
visions greatly superior to the Germans. In a
battle such as this the and tear of the
troops is one of the most important factors. The
French know that the enemy's losses have been
extremely heavy, and know, too, that their own
and those of the British leave big margin in
favor of the Allies
q According to conservative estimates officially
announced, the Germans have lost approximate
~ $4,000 men in this battle to date. BY study
OF the averages throughout the war 1900 is
shown to be the loss which German division
must suffer before it is withdrawn from the
firing line. The Allies have already identified
1876 German divisions that entered the battle
and have been removed for reorganization and
engaged re-engaged, which permits esti-
mate of the enemy's losses. Of the total German
forces on the western front only sixty-six di-
visions have not been thrown in at least once,
of which it is known that at least ten-land-
sturm and the kind-are incapable of taking
part in battle of this character.
Allowing for retired units, whose value is nat
urally inferior both in morale and training to
their predecessors, the enemy thus may be said
TO possess sufficient force for one more violent
drive. When that fails, as the Allies are justi-
fed in believing it will, after having repelled the
original onslaught, their turn viii come

Hundreds Of Miles Away
Thousands of Feet
In Air

Washington, Dec. 27.-Naval
aviators at the Ana Costa sta
tion here sat down to a Christ
mas dinner yesterday in celebra-
ton Of a momentous test Of ra-
dio telephony Tuesday when the
voice OF an operator here was
heard distinctly by an aviator
one hundred miles away.
Above the whi,r of his engine
a hundred miles distant from
the Ana Costa station, en- route
to Hampton Roads. Ensign Pal
mer, pilot of a naval air-plane
distinctly recognized the voice
of Lieut.. Commander G.. D. Muir
ray, who gave him directions
through radio telephone oper-
ated by Ensign C. B. Mirick.
This is the most momentous
achievement in radio telephony
so far recorded lin experiments
which have been conducted here
for several months. Hitherto it
has not been possible in local
tests to reach a flier with the
voice at a greater distance than
two miles unless the aviator was
in a quiescent state. In vester-
r sa r.
days long distant test Ensign
Palmer was proceeding at full
speed with his motors thunder
ing when he recognized the vo-
cal orders from Washington, a
hundred miles away. Ensign
Palmer not only heard the voice
with the most complete dis
tinctness but was able as well to
name the person with whom he
was talking.

Merchants Should Perfect
Retail Association for
Self Protection and
Service
Would Eliminate Lost Accounts
by Such Organization and
System Would be Great
Aid to All

Some time in the past there was
an organization which called itself a
Merchants Retail Organization. Some
Of the merchants Of the city are still
in doubt as to whether the associa-
tion has continued or whether it
was ever practically perfected. Be
that as it may, the need Of such an
organization is becoming necessary
in the view Of several merchants and
now it is proposed to get together
and organize such an association.
The first steps in this matter would
be the canvassing by some committee
the number Of members that can be
secured, arrange meeting time and
place, and then organize.
AS to the possible good that such
an organization would do, it can be
depended upon, that there would be
less loss to outstanding accounts, as
reports. among the members would
show those who are slow in pay or
otherwise. There would be sufficient
aid given by the secretary to all
members protecting against the dead
beats etc. -
As means Of mercantile protec-
ton, there could be nothing more
saner and surer than getting rid Of
the class Of creditors who take their
time to pay bills and those number
who never intend to pay at all. Rec
