This was the comment of one state
department official tonight when he
was informed by the Universal Ser
vice that the new imperial German
chancellor in his first address TO the
reichstag, had asked the allies 10
state their peace terms, and had also.
unconfirmed reports said, proposed
an armistce.
Nothing but the exigencies of the
military situation 1t was suggested,
is behind the German move for peace.
which follows SO closely on Austria s
move, which was rebuffed In hurry
by the allies, Another state depart
ment official declared that Prince
Max's proposal seemed to follow the
same lines as Austria 5 request for a.
mon binding discussion" on the part
of all belligerents, and this being the
case, he expressed the belief 1t would
meet with the same treatment.
The department tonight had not
been officially advised OF The move
ment Of the German chancellor, but
in the light OF newspaper cable ad-
vices. it was generally conceded that
Prince Max, fully aware of the
dangers now confronting German
arms, was only too willing to assume
the burden OF attempting to obtain
peace and that his utterances hetray-
ed his Willingness.
Whether or not the armistice
report is correct, one sentence
will suffice for it--namely, the
allies will not consider it. The
United States, in common with
the entente allies. has seen, as
President Wilson pointed out, the
fun fruits of the Brest- Litovsk
and Bucharest treaties and VIII
not allow Germany the slightest
hope of an abandonment OF hos
tilities. The treachery that has
characterized Germany through
out the entire war would show to
it's best advantage were an armis-
tice allowed ii was said

IT was less than two weeks age
when President Wilson festated the
aims of the war---and his words have

here say the action of Prince Max is
