DISCUSS ERECTING
MEMORIAL TABLET

At the meeting of the home-com-
ing association of service men last
night the making of a tablet bear
ing the names of all men who were
in the service during the war was
discussed. The tablet will include
all men in Rock Island county. A
committee was chosen with w. L.
Franks as chairman. No definite
action was decided upon, the
sponsors of the tablet wishing to
wait until after the annual fed
Cross melting was held today, and
get the Red Cross to work along
with the homecoming committee
1t is the desire of the committee
to erect some sort of a memorial to
the men who served the country
in the war and the tablet bearing
the names is thought to be the
most appropriate.
Action will be taken after the
Red Cross meeting and work on
the tablet will begin shortly.

PEACE EFFORTS
OF WILSON TOLD
BY BERNST0RFF
Former Hun Envoy on Stand in
Berlin Tells Attempts TO
Bring War 70 End.

Berlin, Get. 22.-Count Johann
Won BernstorfT, former German am
bassador to the United States, who
yesterday was the principal wit
ness before the committee investi-
eating the responsibility of Ger
man officials in causing the out
break of the great war, resumes
his testimony today.
While on the stand yesterday,
Count Bernstorff told of the efforts
made by President Wilson in 1914
and 1915 to find a way to bring
peace proposals before the allied
governments. German peace ten
tatives, made from time to time,
however, handicapped Mr.. Wilson,
in the opinion of the former am
bassador, being construed by the
allies as evidences Of weaknesses
on the part of Germany.
Planned Temporary Peace.
1t was Count Won Bernstor4fs
impression that President Wilson
intended to propose a temporary
peace which would not touch on
territorial issues and would leave
major problems connected with the
peace to a conference Of the bellig-
erents. In 1916, the witness said.
President Wilson was in a position
to propose peace without victory"
but he declared Mr.. Wilson de-
ferred action because of the senti-
ment against Germany in the
United States at that time.
Secret documents from the for
asr tn, - -,
committee and records from the
admiralty and war office will, it is
understood, be prodUeCd later.
Tells of kaiser's Plan.
Count Won >Bernstorff, referring
to the peace overtures contained In
the memorandum written by En-
peror william, Oct. 8. 1915, ex-
planned that this memorandum had
been telegraphed to him for trans
mission to Colonel House because
il had not been finished in time to
be handed to Ambassador Girard,
before sailing.
(The ambassador returned to
America for a short vacation in the
autumn OF 1870.
Count Won Bernstorff, said that
the document referred to a CONVEX
sation between the emperor and the
ambassador had had at general
headquarters at CharletvilIa,
France, with the possibility Of
peace overtures by the United
States, was discussed, and added
that the memorandum had made an
impression in Washington, in that
It demonstrated that Germany was
ready promptly to accept the med
iation of the president. At the time
the presidential campaign in the
United States prevented President
Wilson from attempting any def
mite action.
Was TO Encourage Move.
Count BeFnstorff uttered an en-
phatic yes" when a member of the
committee asked him whether he
understood his instructions in tho
sense that he was to influence or
encourage President Wilson and
General House to undertake d
He also answered affirmatively a
question whether President Wilson
was ready to accede to these
wishes and institute a general ac-
ton for peace even without pos
sessing Germany's concrete condi-
tions for peace
