    BERLIN PRESS IS
NOTOPTIMISTIC
German Newspapers See Little
Hope for Peace in Lloyd
George's Utterances.
HINT AT WAK TO A FINISH
Berlin, Dec. 20. (Via London,
Dec. 21.) The Berlin press, which
commented only fragmentarily on
Premier Lloyd George's speech this
morning, because only excerpts were
available, now has the entire text and
devotes its full attention to the sub
ject The papers, on a whole, express
little surprise at the British premier's
attitude, although most wonder why
he believes that entering into a con
ference would involve the entente as
placing its head in a noose.
Lloyd George's references to resti
tution and reparation are universally
interpreted as an entente demand that
Germany surrender all occupied terri
tory and probably pay n indemnity.
The Tageblatt says:
"Lloyd George is not willing to
negotiate, or willing only in case that
Germany will submit to England's
demands as summarized in his utter
ances regarding restitution, reparation
and guarantee. This makes the
chasm between the English and the
German standpoint so broad that not
even the most cheerful optimist can
And a way to bridge it Lloyd George,
in stipulating the acceptance of his
conditions before the opening of ne
gotiations, shows that he does not
wish to negotiate."
' Slight Hope Expressed.
The Tageblatt concluded by asking
whether all possibilities of peace hare
now vanished and answers its own
question with a faintly hopeful ref
erence to various French socialists,
English and Italian voices as show
ing that the peace overtures are not
judged by the ' public exactly as by
the parliaments.
In the view of the Vossische
Zeitung the reference to the noose
is nothing more than a recognition
by : England of Germany's strength
and the failure of the entente's mili
tary enterprise. It adds that not a
single word of Lloyd George's speech
indicates any desire to repair the torn
intercommunal threads and asks why
the entente should stand so stub
bornly for restriction and reparation
, when it it highly improbable that Al
sace can ever be conquered by
France, Constantinople by Russia and
that it is even improbable if Ger
many can be driven out of the .con
quered territory. The Vossische Zei
tnng contends that it is a fortunate
thing that Germany possess milita
rism to withstand the "entente's am
bition to reach its world goal."
The most significant sentence in the
Deutsche Tages Zeitung is Count von
Reventlow's comment on Lloyd
George's reference to Napoleon. He
says:
"Conditions were different a cen
tury ago and above all there were no
submarines."
I The Kreus Zeitung is flatly pessi
mistic. - "We have now learned," it
says, "that our enemies do not want
peace, but. war to the knife, so we
must abandon all considerations and
grasp all the meant of war at our
disposal." .

NOTES ARE SENT
BECAUSE U.S. IS
AT VERGE OF WAR
(Caathnwd1 from Phi Om.I
also considering what would have to
be the course of the United States to
conserve its interests as a neutral if
the war is to continue.
Coupled with the president's recent,
declaration that the position of neu
trals was becoming intolerable, they
attach much significance to his state
ment in the note that his suggestion
comes from a neutral whose interests
have been most seriously affected by
the war "and whose concern for its
early conclusion arises out of a mani
fest necessity to determine how best
to safeguard those interests if the
war is to continue."
Germans Expect Results.
In Herman nuarters the conviction
that the president's action would
surely lead to some sort of a con
sideration of peace terms was ex
pressed in the following authorized
statement by Count von Bernstorff,
the German ambassador:
'Now 1 am perfectly convinced that
there will be conferences."
Desnite the fact that President
Wilson's notes state specifically and
unreservedly that he is not propos
ing peace he is not even offering
mediation they are regarded here as
of such a nature as will compel all
belligerents to make more of a re
ply than a mere acknowledgment of
receipt.
Britons Art Surprised.
British embassy officials made no
attempt to conceal tbeir surprise at
the president's action. They are not
alone, however, for all official Wash
ington had been led by officials to
believe that the president in trans
mitting the German peace proposals
without comment had taken all the
action that was to be expected from
the United States for tome time to
come unless there was some unfore
seen developement in world affairs.
The secrecy with which the prepa
ration of the notes and their dispatch
were surrounded was complete and
nothing was known about them un
til they were well on their way.
League of Nation.
The definite proposal of the United
States for a league of nations to
insure peace and justice throughout
the world," it interpreted at a ttep
which, if carried through would mean
the abandonment of the theory of
"splendid isolation" which Washing
ton bequeathed to the country. Sig
nifance is attached to the fact that
the president uses the word "insure"
rather than "enforce" at indicating
that be hat not committed himself
to any one program to accomplish
that end, but that he it open to what
ever tuggetstiont may teem best to
the other world nations.
Repeated efforts .have been made
to enlist the American government in
some sort of international agreement
involving responsibility, but always
the answer has been the United States
would stand alone. Several months
ago President Wilson spoke most
earnestly before the league to enforce
peace of hit hope that the United
States would join in tome new inter
national arrangements, but not until
now is he known to nave made the
propoaal officially to tbe nations of
the world.
European Nations Committed.
It is thought here that along these
lines President Wilson's note will find
its most ready reception aboard, for
all parties have indicated their belief
that the war .will have been in vain
unless from it come guarantees
against its repetition. Former For-
xgin Minister Sir Edward Grey for
bngland. Premier Briand for France
and Chancellor Bethmann-rlollweg
for Germany have all committed
their nations to tome tort of interna
tional reorganization to secure the
ends laid down in the president's note
and the official offers of the central
powers, together with Lloyd George's
speech in reply, have accentuated that
purpose.
As yet, however the actual proce
dure which may be adopted appears
uncertain. Germany apparently has
given up its earlier opposition to dis
armament which nearly split the sec
ond Hague conference. No official
statement has come from either Eng
land or France on this subject in the
firesent circumstance. It was Eng
and, however, at The Hague con
ference, seconded by France and the
United States, that insisted on stating
its views in favor of disarmament.

the probable time and form of the
belligerents' reply. It it assumed that
the members of each group of allies
will consult one Another and agree
on a uniform statement of views, but
whether that statement will be joint,
identical or different in each case is
not known. The solidarity which has
been to strikingly shown both by the
central powers identical proposals
and the allies' practically simultane
ous response it expected to be con
tinued here. It is thought also that
some time may elapse before the dif
ferent groups can tettle down to an
actual agreement on terms to be pre
sented in case it it decided to heed
the president's request by going into
them fully.
Meanwhile the allied entente'! re

Speakt on "Our Country.'
Bishop Lynch of Dallas, an orator
i of rare ability, speaking of "Our
I Country," related the early history of
the Catholic church in this country,
I and said: "If our country is to adhere
' to the ideals of our ancestors, and if
I our ship of state would sail in the
I method and form our foreafthers
' hoped, we must stand for a square
deal."
Archbishop Glennon of St. Louis
expressed the hope that bishops and
priests would push forward with zeal
and in the spirit of companionship.
He stated that Archbishop Harty was
known in St. Louis as "Father Harty"
and as a model priest
"Our Diocese" was the toast to
which Father Harrington responded.
He bounded Omaha by St. Paul, Chi
cago, Denver and St Louis, and ex
pressed a hope that the soup poison
ing incident which marred a similar
banquet in Chicago would not be re
peated in this city. He told of the
growth of the Catholic church in this
state from forty priests twenty years
ago to 200 priests today. He said
there are 100 parishes and 90.000
i members of the church in the diocese

BOOZE LOWERS EFFICIENCY
"More doctors are complete wrecks
because of excessive use of alcohol
than any other class of men," said Dr.
E. C Henry in his talk on the effects
of alcohol on men before the Noon
day club in the Commercial club
rooms at noon.
Dr. Henry declared that even the
most moderate use of alcohol lowers
a man's efficiency. "Doctors tell you
that a little smoking and drinking
does no harm, because most of them
smoke and drink a little themselves,"
he said, "but the fact is that any al
cohol taken into the system is in
jurious." The speaker cited the actual test
of 200 bricklayers in Sweden. They
were divided into two groups, the
first 100 being given a small quantity
of beer while they worked. It was
found their efficiency as bricklayers
was lowered 10 per cent. Later the
other 100 men who had shown the
greater efficiency were also given a
like quantity of beer, and the result
was that their work showed up 10
per cent less efficient
Another test, he said, was made
upon a lot of marksmen who were
given wine. When questioned about
the result the marksmen themselves
testified that they had shot faster

the doctor, "showed that they had ac

The speaker declared, however, that
taking liquor away from people
doesn't solve the problem. "We teach
men to choose between self-control
