The president and his adviser believe that the confer enee of Teutonio leaders' at German field headquarters on the occasion of the kaiser's birthday today Will result In a definite peace movement, t Yeaoo eerrlmoat Stroma. Unofficial advices from the ' Teu tonic powers have recorded the de velopment of a strong public senti ment for peace, and the apparent will ingness of the German government to talk peace terms since the beginning of the peace discussions Is expected to result in a more or less definite Indorsement of the president's latest plan. !.-.;! The official indorsement of the league to enforce peace plan, and the peace terms demanded by President Wilson in his senate speech by the Russian government encouraged the president greatly. This Indorsement coupled with advices that public gath erings in jfingiand and France had dem onstrated their indorsement of the plan, and that sentiment In. Italy strongly favored th president's pro posals, waa accepted as showing clear ly the development of a real peace sentiment among the entente powers for the first time since the president initiated his peace movement Smsslaa vote Most favorable. In this connection diplomatic Wash ington tonight pointed est as signifi cant the fact that the Russian peace statement makes three separata dec larations in the entente powers for peace. The first, formulated at Rome In reply to the president s peace note, was supposed to represent the views of all the entente powers. ut Great Brit ain found It necessary to make her own position Clear outside of the joint note and the Balfour note was forwarded to the president. The Russian statement. differing from both of these. Is plainly tns most favorable peace declaration from any of the entente powers. It waa pointed out tonight that these dif. ferent viewpoints demonstrate at least that the entente powers are giving se rious consideration to the president s proposals. - ' a i"T . Comment Is Complimentary. -Sofia, Jan. !!,-(!. . S.) The Bul garian press prints uniformly com- ollmeatary comment on - President Wilson's address In the senate. The newspapers point out that the preel daat's reference to the freedom of the seas Is bound to interest all countries except Kngland. The Impression is voiced that the present document Is the forerunner of other utterances from Washington In the Interest of peace. Borne organs emphasise that the president's speech "refuses to en tertain the egotistical demands of the entente" and is proclaiming to ths world at large that peace is near.
