' iWWZWk ALLIES PRESENT (Coauuued from page u) and his people the rulers before this country and its associates will halt their fight leaders declared. Though 1918 finds the world again swept with peace talk and the governments pondering over it carefully, such consideration of the subject receives is not about ac ceptance but about- counteracting the flood of German press agenting on the topic. Officials have planned to ignore tho German peace movement. But finding that the talk and the propaganda grew apace, they were con fronted today with the question of an swering this mass of insidious propa ganda. That explains Lloyd-George's and Clemenceau's coming conference. It explains, too, the reports that Amer ican government heads and allied lead ers are consulting on peace. True, the allies will consult Washing ton before making any attempt to out-press-agent the German press agents. But there is no general consultation at the moment, except insofar as entente ambassadors gather the American view point in their capitols at the state de partment and give their governments ideas in return. There is little need for consultation. Opinion of allied and American govern ment men is unified on the point that the time is not ripe for peace. Germany, they know, really wants peace, wants it more badly than ever be fore. There it le3s talk of a victorious peace emanating from Germany than ever be fore. Now it is mostly just plain peace. - But the American and allies' position is that Germany is still insincere in meeting the world half way. She has not stripped herself of the power which made the war possible and which could inflict other wars. That is why the present peace cam paign, press-agented via Petrograd and Brest Litovsk, is getting no "rise" from those opposing Germany. But, lest allied and American silence be misconstrued, there will be some statement to offset the Germans', unless present plans fail. Some quarters suggest that tnis state ment will contain even more specific O. Henry Story Happy New Year TODAY Corinne Griffith and An All Star Vitagraph Cast in i WILL REPAY" From the O. Henry story, "A Municipal Report" Two Added Comedies LIBERTY t.1 war aims and peace terms than any pre vious pronouncement. In any event, it will not be an acceptance. Answering the thought that the kai ser had taken a step toward democracy I by conferring more power on Chancellor Hertnng, orticials declared that this is "mere show," put forth to quiet grow ing German voices for more representa tion in the Slav peace session. The increasing dissatisfaction of the Bohemian, and C'zecks under the kai ser's domination is spurring his peace efforts. As for Eussia, she can stay in or get out, it makes no difference now in the military situation, according, to official expressions here. She is doomed to fall prey to German shrewdness and the best can possibly be expected is that the Teuton will find a hornet's nest on his hands from "revolutions within. Russian authorities here believe a separate peace between Russia and Germany is inevitable, while Rumania must accept either such a peace or be crushed beneath the German war ma chine. And once this German-Russian peace is concluded, Bulgaria, Russia and Ku mania will doubtless reach agree-1 ments ! However, diplomats here are resigned: to the inevitable. They declare thatj the sooner this happens the sooner willj they know how to frame their future) war p-oblems. These plans tentatively! suggest the seizure of Vladivostok or; Kola, in event war supplies there seem ; likely to fall into Teuton hands. Above all the peace talk now looms the great question of winning the war, officials say. The message tfcey all agreed on today with bloody 1918 ahead, was "hurry." scribed to by all the allies, or it may be issued as an analysis of exactly what lies behind tho camouflage of the German proposals. The allies recognize the Brest Litovsk proposals as a concrete, although back handed proffer to the allies, as much as to Russia. Even with Count Czernin's limitations Germany's apparent acceptance of the phrase "no annexations and no indem nities", and the concession expressing the right of self-determination of all peoples, is regarded here as significant, in showing the changed temper of the German war lords and their attempt to take a definite step toward peace. "It is recognized that the proposals rntituto grave new facts, of which official recognition has been taken," declared the Chronicle today. WANTS GENERAL PEACE, By Joseph Soaplen (United Pres Staff Correspondent) Stockholm, Jan. 1. "Russia will im itediately break off separate peace ne gotiations if the allies grant passports to a Stockholm international conference and show a disposition honestly to con sider that conference's decision regard in a general peace," declared M. Vor koysky, representative of the Russian soviet and the people's commissaries., in an interview with the United Press' to day. "Russia," ho declared, "welcomes the action of the British labor party. Russia prefers a democratic general 'peace rather than an unsatisfactory sep I arate peace. By permitting a meeting of ! the socialist ' Internationale' it would i be possible to make a general agree ment. Bhould the Central Powers decline j to participate in such Stockholm con ferences or to abide by its decisions, Rusiiia will continue in the war. Hhould! tho allies decline, a separate peace is inevitable "As to the allies participation, the soviet must have proof that the grant ing of passports to a Stockholm con ference :s not a maneuver merely to sidetrack tho Russo-German negotiations" ALLIES EXCHANGE VIEWS.
