OUTLOOK OF PRESENT WAR
The war has thus far drawn to its
close 1t has brought many hard :
ships and suffering but the present
outlook is that the Allies are rapid
ly winning and the German forces
are being driven back with great
losses
Only recently the Allies have TAX

eight thousand prisoners have been
captured. The British took five
thousand and the French three

the allied forces. Earlier have
shown over hundred thousand
Austrian and German prisoners TAX
en- by the American. French and Eng.

So, judging from the present sit

are winning rapidly and the great

will be won within one more year,

Criticism of Wilson
In Congress Mostly
Talk, Leaders Say

WASHINGTON. Dec. 4.-Indica-
tons were strong today in congress
sional circles that criticism of Pres
ident Wilson's trip abroad will be
confined to talk and that none of the
resolutions introduced in house or
senate will pass.
This is due largely to Republican
depreciation of "nagging" the pres.
ident while he is on his way abroad
as the representative of the people
Democrats who opposed the trip now
agree the thing to do is to stop crit
iciZing and seek by helpful discus
sion of the peace terms to render
whatever help may be given the pres
ident on his difficult task.
Il think the American people dis
liked the idea of the trip" said SEN
ator Hoke Smith, Georgia. But they
also won't stand for naGging at the
hands of congress. They want their
possible, and obviously he can't do
that if his prestige is hurt by an
appearance of diSsenSion at home"
