We have reduced Federal prices

some truck companies can no longer

Their service TO the public ceased

PEACE WITH GERMANY.

The Knox resolution declaring the
state of war with the Teutonic pow
ers at an end and paving the way
for a separate peace with Germany
has struck another snag. 1t Is
discovered that the German alien
property seized here during the war
is involved in the matter and that
the resolution will have to be much
amended. which. of course, will take
more time. Chairman Porter of
the House Committee on Foreign af-
fairs, assumed to be speaking the
wishes of the Administration, is re
ported as opposing the repeal of the
war declaration as provided in the
resolution in a speech at a gathering
of Pennsylvania Congressman.
There may be vital reason for
delaying It's passage in the sugges-
tion that the Knox resolution is full
of political dynamite and that Con-
gressmen are becoming afraid of IT,.
Informed politicians profess to know
that the sentiment of the country
is strongly against it, and there is
a probability that Congressman have
