READY FUR PEACE SESSION
GERMAN PAPER MAKES STATE.
 MENT OF TERMS.
Nc Annexation and No Indemnity Con- ceded-Belgum to Be Held
 as Pawn.

terdam.-Germany has made suggestions for a peace conference to the Spanish government, says the Sc cialist Vorwaerts of Berlin.
 The suggestions are:
 T. Germany wants no annexations or indemnities in the west
 "2 The peace treaty with Russia and Roumania may not he questioned.
 3 The principle Of self-determina- tion of peoples has not been discussed. but may be settled at the peace con ference where the fate of Belgium Is to be settled.
 A The Balkan question is to be set tied around the conference table.
 5. The freedom of the seas, the dis mantliL5 of Gibraltar and the Suez canal and the right for Germany to use coaling stations.
 6. The colonial question is to be settled on the basis of the status quo"
 The Vorwaerts considers this a very reasonable peace program.
 Belgium Held as Pawn"
 The term status quo" applied in the foregoing to the German colonial ques. tion has been rather loosely used in the past in connection with the solu. tion of various peace problems. In general it has been employed as an abbreviation of the term status quo ante bellum."
 Germany's position heretofore. as in- dicated by her leading statesmen. has been one of insistenee upon the return of her colonies. and there has been nothing in the recent utterances of the German leaders tending to show that this attitude had been changed. It was even indicated that the pawn" held by Germany in the shape of Belgium was intended to be used to secure the giving back of her former colonial pos. sessions.

 On the result of a conference be. tween representatives of the govern ment and the union men depend reso. lutions of more than 100000 other workers to quit their tasks. Winston Churchill will be the representative of
 It is understood the war cabinet has taken the position that inasmuch as the strike is direct blow at the gov. ernment plans will be laid at once to force the striking men into the army, unless they return to their work.

AMERICAN SOLDIERS GROSS OURCQ RIVER

GUNS HAVE BEEN REMOVED
Allies Capture One of the Great Ger man Supply Bases Inside the Sois- sons-Rheims Saliert-Cavalry
 in Action.

With the American Army Near Soissons. - Franco-American troops continuing their pressure on the Ger mans in retreat from the Marne. havs reached and crossed the Ourcq river and penetrated the town of Fere-en- Tardenois, one of the great German supply bases for the enemy troops in- side the Soissons- Rheims salient.
 Meantime on the center of the al
 jed right wing southwest of Rheims violent attacks by the French have forced the enemy to give further ground and enabled the French to capture several towns of strategic ciably nearer the high road which runs northeastward from Dormans to Rheims.
 On the extreme wings of the grad ually decreasing pocket-near Sois- sons and Rheims-the enemy, heavily reinforced, is holding tenaciously to his ground, realizing that successes there would result in general crumbling of his plans of defense against the locking up of his entire armies inside the big bag. In addi- tion to the large number of troops for reinforcement that have been thrown on these two sectors, the Ger man long range guns from the region north of Soissons and north and northeast of Rheims are keepig both wings of the salient under a heavy entilading fire.
 Under the battering tactics of the Americans and French the German line on the south has now been driv- en back more than 12 miles from the point south of Chateau Thierry, door to Paris against the enemy July Is. and themselves became the az gressors in what has turned out to pc one of the greatest battles of the war.
 Where the Germans are ;n retreat from the south the cavalry has been brought into the fighting and numer- ous tanks and machine guns in profu- sion are everywhere marrying the enc my, whose losses are heavy. Mean time airplanes are flying over the re trating hordes dropping bombs. while the big allied guEs from the sides of the salient are keeping up their in- tensive firing from all angles into the densely congested area.
 The retreat of the enemy has by no means become a rout. and so long as the Dickpd trOODS arOund SoiSSOrs and Rheims are able to keep well open the mouth of the bag through which the Germans are falling back, it is expected that the greater portion of the armies of the crown prince will be successful in reaching in or der the line where it is intended 10 them to turn and make stand.

MAY FIX A MINIMUM WAGE
War Labor Board Considers Proposi. tion Which Would Abolish
 Strikes.

Washington.-With at least 300 la. Dor disputes and labor questions on the calendar for settlement, the war labor board began series of execu- tive sessions to consider the two big. gest questions that now confront em. ployers and laboring classes and which involves all others-the standard working day and a minimum living wage
 Strike after strike has occurred in busy industrial centers. The issues always have been the length of working day and the minimum wage that should be paid employees.
 It is proposed that a sum be agreed upon as the minimum living sum on which a family Of four can live and that employers be required to pay this sum as minimum and that q sliding scale as to efficiency and the charac. ter Of labor performed be set AS , max. tmum. To reach conclusions along this line countrywide survey probably will be made by special investigation.

Thousands of Achievements Sent to Relief of Heir-Foch Proves His Superiority Over German
 Leader in Strategy.

Gen. Foch has taken leaf out of the book of German military strategy and ordained the use by the allied armies of the pincer system of offen- sive in the Soissons-Reims salient
 Both jaws of the pincer are moving smoothly, with the pivot along tue Marne working in unison. The process of attempting to capture many of the nearly half a million Germans in the big pocket is we'll on the way to what at present seems like possible success.
 The Germans, however, evidently do not intend to permit themselves to be entrapped without fighting Having thrown thousands of endorsements into the already congested salient. they have started a counter attack of great violence all along the semi-cir. cular front from the Ourcq river 10 the region immediately southward Of Aeims. Their men are said to have orders to stem the allied tide of ad- vance at all costs.
 Nevertheless, at last accounts. the Aihci iNaho' rieHCH' bTlllSH ana lldlian troops. themselves we'll reinforced to meet the new turn in affairs, were pressing steadily forward at nearly ail points on the battle line to Reims. while east of the cathedral city a Pol ish contingent-the first of the Poles tc enter the combat-is declared 10 have carried out successfully an enter prise against the enemy, in which more than 200 Germans were made prisoners.
