It was assumed Secretary Lnslng will confer with the president before tomorrow's cab inet meeting. German Ambassador von Oernstorft will probably have an Interview with Lansing within the next few days. The United Press learned today from source of authority that Pres ident Wilson' greatest problem In the German note li to Indicate, be-! yond question, Amerlca'i desire not to "Inter-meddle," while at the same time to perform the humanitarian part of eliciting from both aide some official data a to the preliminary terms upon which each regards peace as possible. The administration hope that the allies will not flatly reject the Ger man note without Indicating in some fashion their minimum ot conces sions and maximum ot demands as the IwhIb for peace. If these prelim Inary concessions and demand's' are estulillHhed hy the allies, the admin istration regards It ns certain that Germany will respond with a like list. Thus a starting point will bo es tablished from which nt some tlmo In the future peace may come. There Is no Idea In official circles that peace Is near, and thore I no Idea of at tempting to expedite a settlement. .It Is recognised thnt such action I on the part of this government would probably VffiJCaValMlJl"'1- 11 11,80 renognlacd, howovor, thnt some tlmo the first draft of the demand must he submitted nnd It la looked upon ns In the IntorestoJ.uumanlty in gen ' oral that this prellmlnnry stop should i he made iis'early as possible. London, Dec. 14. The caution, "watch out; take care," sounded by Premier Brland In hi address to the French chamber of deputies, will also be England's guidance In scrut inising the German peace proposals. After the first shock of the news of Germany ' peace plan and the first and Instantaneous decision to reject It, there came today, with a strengthening ot this determination not to make the peace Germany craves, the belief that England and her allies ought closely to examine the' circumstances of the Teutonic move. Press and public alike were more than ever convinced today that some. "German trick was behind the proffer." .. Most apparent In the German peace terms Is the attempt to "gain the sympathy of neutrals.. An attempt to create dissension among the entente allies is believed to be one consid eration of the note and the chancel lor's speech. Lastly the British publlo believes the Herman government desires to make a play to the German people to support the oft-repeated assertion thnt Germany Is only defending her self from the enemies who forced the war on her.

England and her allies, therefore. Intend to reject the peace proposals, hut before that rejection, they In tend to scrutinlie every word in the note and the chancellor's speech for hidden meanings and to weigh all circumstances ot Its delivery care fully. , Popular approval was emphatical ly registered to the first official an swer to Germany's bid for peace made for France by Premier Briand. He spoke to the chamber of depu ties, outlining the alms and policies of the reconstructed French govern ment an4 In connection with the explanation took occasion solemnly to warn Ftance and her allies to watch for the "poison" In the Teu tonte offers. CORRESPONDENT IS I T By William Philip Slmms v With the? Canadian forces at the British front in Franco, Doc, S. ffly cable, delayed.) A wilderness of mud, a cold, clammy drlnle, a con tinuous drab along the battle, front, finds the spirit of the Canadian forces utterly unchanged. The battle xono from the sea hi Switzerland Is one continuous loblolly, nut the Canadians are contemptuous ot the elements, apparently Indifferent. They reply to rommlsseratlng re marks "lint Kiits has It Just as bad as we do." . Utterly unemotional, the Canadians accept orders for rest and orders to go over the parapet, In rain, mud, and drlxxle in the same spirit of readiness they accept Instructions to go to dry billets. . , In the middle of a muddy road, I met a sergeant wounded In the shoulder. It was after the Cana dians had stormed and captured the German trenches. ' A staff correspondent stopped and questioned the sergeant. Despite the fact that he was direct from a hot action, and wounded and tired, he answered all questions with the same careful precision that might he ob served In a court room when a star . witness was on the stand. I "Did the Germans quit" he was ; asked. "No sir." "Did they put up a hard fight?" "No, they fought fairly well, sur rendering when cornered." "Were the prisoners glad to be captured?" "I'd hardly say that." With a group ot officers,. I stood by the roadside while relief was go ing on.- One column was going in, one coming out. The fresh column was fairly immaculate as to uniforms and equipment: The other was cov ered with mud from head to foot. But the spirit In both was identical. Jokes passed from one column to the other. Hello, Mickey," yelled an out- Koing mapie learer to one or bis brothers going Into action, as they came abreast, "Where's Ye going?" "I dunno, Bill," was the reply, "but I think there's a war on some where." ., , The condition of the foreign troops Dot HlrajR.ar NotRik V . Ltag as Ottos HP, (.'In, i . .Sam Vifc. Get a Can Today is most splendid. They are certainly well fed. ; ' The Canadian field forces not only have the beet staples but they have also plenty of "palate teasers." In the shape of sauces, pickles and other dainties to break the monotony, of regular fsre. The relation between the Canadian officers and men is similar to that often marked In the French army. There is a cordial understanding be tween both. Everywhere I found the Canadians confident of the outcome. an expression of the Vancouver boys summing up the common belief "It's merely a question of time. We've got Frits' number."
