von Oernstorft will probably have an

next few days.
The United Press learned today
from source of authority that Pres
ident Wilson' greatest problem In

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

In the future peace may come. There

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.

There is indication of popular un
rest in Germany, due to shortage of
food and the staggering losses of
men snd material which she has
undergone since 1914.
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

explanation took occasion solemnly
to warn Ftance and her allies to
watch for the "poison" In the Teu

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

came abreast, "Where's Ye going?"
"I dunno, Bill," was the reply,

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.
