Empire Nearer Peace

Reichstag, which Immediately ad
journed, according to an Exchange Tel
egraph dispatch from Copenhagen. Dis
cussion of the note was taken un in
sectional meetings of the Reichstar

Or. Solf, the German Foreign Secrc-
tary, speaking in the Reichstag Thurs
Gay, said the government would con-
tinue the reforms already undertaken
in the government Of Alsace-Lorraine,
but would not anticipate the solution
OF that problem.
The Foreign Secretary contended that
Polish annexation demands were not in
accordance with the peace programme
of President Wilson.
BASLE. Oct. 2o.-Comment on Presi-
dent Wilson's latest note to Germany
is beginning to appear in the German
papers. The "National Zeitune," of
Berlin, says:
president Wilson has answered
quickly. Well, if ever Emperor Will

is in season, it is right now"
The "Neueste Nachrichten," Of Ber-
lin, says: "1n spite OF everything. we
feel that this answer brings US nearer
peace"
In the Reichstag Wednesday Deputy
Hasse, minority Socialist, criticised the
speech Of the Chancellor as too vague.
declaring Germany could not expect an
armistice from it. He added that it
would be criminal to hide from the
German people the fact that the Ham,
burg -bagdad plan had crumbled.
Numerous German newspapers criti-
else the speech sharply, according to q

Continued from page I

Of the council, can be assembled at
short notice, but it is presumed their
presence will not be necessary until
the military and naval members have
completed their work
1t was said to-day in official quarters
that Colonel House would not be a
member of the council, at least for the
present; that he simply is the eyes
and ears of the President in Europe
charged with ascertaining the exact
state of public and private feeling in
regard to all matters connected with
the war.
Possessed of full knowledge Of this
Wilson will be even better prepared
than heretofore to deal with every
phase Of the complex problems that
will arise as soon as negotiations for
an armistice and peace are fully under
way.
Wants Allies Views
Individual views Of the Entente
Powers are certain to develop as the
result Of the action of the President
in boldly stating the war aims Of the
United States. 1t is understood that
the President desires to have these dis
closed at the earliest possible moment,
SO that q united front on these ques-
tions may be presented to the common
enemy by prior agreement.
Colonel House will be in a position
to learn these separate views and, per-
haps, to reconcile apparently conflict
ing interests and desires through per-
sonal discussions.
Later, Colonel House may take a
place at the council table, if Presi-
dent Wilson SO desires.
The President has q vote in the coun-
Gil in the disposition Of political mat
ters, and it is regarded as possible that
he may delegate this power to Colonel
House
1t has been suggested, however, that
the use of the term ''vote" in connec-
ton with the proceedings Of the coun-
rather voice in the proceedings. for
there is to be no voting in the ordinary
sense-no question of majortics or
minorlties.
A Family Discussion
The members are charged to broach
freely for discussion any subjects they
deemed necessary each representative
will notify his own government of the
general sense of the council and it Will
be for the home governments to give
the necessary instructions for any
change in policy.
Admiral Benson's status differs from
that of Colonel House in that he pre-
sents himself at Versailles in his ca
pacity as the ranking officer OF the
American navy. and consequently prob.
ably will be welcomed IS an expert and
authority by the technical members
of the council.
No one knows the extent of the pow
crs with which he has been clothed
hy the President or Secretary Daniels.
but it is assumed that he can give
any orders necessary to carry out the
naval phases of any armistjco that is
agreed upon, so far as it may affect
the American naval forces in European
waters
The official copies Of President Will
sons latest response to the German
notes. together with the corresponds
ence incident thereto, making in all
eleven separate combinations, were
not delivered by cable to the Entente
governments until to-day.
or course, London, Paris and Rome
already were in possession of the un.
official text Of the notes. as received
through the press and by rndio, but
these were not sufficient upon which to
base official action.
