Another theory is that the cen- tral empire’s peoples really want peace but their governments want to put the odium of rejection on the Entente. Then the Hohenzollerns could make a cry of self defense as the battle front approaches the Ger- man border, and thus stimulate the wearied peoples. Papers also declare that Germany’s separate peace note to Belgium is an- other Brest-Litovsk trap. NEW YORK, Sept. 16—The Times urges the Allies to accept Austria's proposal. It declares, however, that peace conditions must throttle Ger- man militarism and insure no repe- tition of war. Other papers urge the Allies to spurn advances. LONDON, Sept. 16.—The Swedish minister his received the Austrian note and will deliver it to the foreign office today. The Austrian minister to Switzerland handed the note to Allied representatives at Berne Sun- day. [By Associated Press} LONDON, Sept. 16.—Austria’s in- vitation to the belligerents to meet for an informal peace discussion was indignantly rejected by the London morning papers. The offer of peace to Belgium is regarded as a shame- less insult. “The Austrian note does not bring real peace any nearer,” savs the Ex-| press. ‘Preliminary conditions to peace have been stated over and over again by the Allies, and there is not the faintst suggestion that the Cen- tral Powers will agree to any one of these. They who drew the sword first are scheming to save themselves from perishing by the sword. The disingenuousness of the note betrays that it was written in Wilhelm- strasse, Berlin.” Relative to the offer of peace to Belgium, the Express says: “This is another Brest-Litovsk scheme and part of the same plan for preserving the power of the Hohen- zollerns. PARIS, Sept. 16.—The Austrian proposal for a conference of bellig-| erents was not much of a surprise in political centers here. It is consid- ered to be the consequence of the| latest successes of the Allies. The general impression is that a new!) peace offensive will not be fruitful. > OAKLAND SIX POPULAR CAR The Oakland Sensible Six, the new light-weight medium-priced car which is now being handled by the Shock ley Service Sales Corporation, has proved itself to be a fast seller.
