Germany has put forth other peace propesitions and Austria- Hungary has been for a iong time festipg the sentiment of the allies :n regard to peace disqussions. In eagh ingtance these enemy nations have received rrompt and emphatic replies. to the effect that there couid bz no negotia- tions with the imperial Cerman gov- ernment. This was the attitude taken even when the central powers ap- peared for the time being to be win- ning. It was made perfectly evidept to them, however, that there was np discouragement among the allied na- tions even after Rusgia had ceased to be a factor ip the war. The determi- nation to carry the war to a vietor- ious conciusion has shown no abate- ment. 1t is therefore prepostercus for the central pawers to suppose that that attitude has chapged, apd in view of the situation with the Teutons on the run everywhere and Bulgaria owt of the war there can be little question but what the kaiser sees the h: writing on the wall. He not only ap- preciates the strength of the allied forces but he understands the clamor- ings of his own people. Recpgnizing that something must done he makes cabinet changes which he thinks will convince the allies that (here is a new German government to deal with and then directs the launching of a new peace mova With the idea of saving his own pelt and leaving the situation so that if his be appeal is accepted it will he possible to forever orious. thin. it the claim that Germany was The camouflase is too Prussianism must go and with Hohenzollerns. ‘There can be no dealing wijth his representatives but only with those named by the German people. The idea af an hon- orable peace with the imperial Ger- man government is ridiculous. It has been conclusively shown that such a thing is impossible. The latest peace appeal has no chance whatever. When the president in a recent address de- ciared there can be no compromise with Germany he answered in advance the latest appeal LOAN MUST NOT LAG. With one-third of the time in which {he fourth Liberty loan is to be raised gone there is officially reported but one-sixth of the necessary amount. It is recognized of course that there arp subscriptiong large both in nymber and size which have not as yet been forwarded to the federal reserve Lanks, but that is an uncertainty ang in such a great endeavor it will not do to bank on uncertainties. The loan is needed. The money must be had and there is not the siightest doubt but what it will he raised provided there is the proper respense made by the people of the rountry. Pecause a subscription may be small it does not mean that it should not be made or that it should be delaved until the last few days. And in this connection no one should become imbued with the idea that the peace talk which is being indulged in is =zoing to make the loan unnecessary. There is no chance in the first place that the peace propo- sition will find favor in any of the #llied nations and there is ne ques- Hion ‘ut what the money asked for n th \n is going to be reguired n an vont. Targe expenditures have heen authorized and the ex- penses connected with the war are bounpd to continue for a long time, Germany af course would like to have the peace feclers serve ap a deterremt not only to the loan hut to the activi- ties of the army but if it expects it it Is bound to he greatly surprised. It is not to be overlogked that goed progress has already been made but there is nevertheless need for speed- ing up the bond subscriptions, and there Is no better way of showing the enemy that we are determined in eur position than by the providing of the pecessary financial backing. The pountry must centribute with the same spirit that the beys fight. The loan must not be allowesd to lag. GULLIBLE SPAIN. Germany is coptinually teling the reutral mations in reapense to pro- tests against its actions that it is ng to be geod, that it is sol ta .x.r.-‘-t them as they should be u‘:gtod and that the only reason that they have been for ‘to plain is be- causg of the olz‘ t] sim) of ailjes, That is of dod, the ques- #5 leng as it accepted It tios cu?bm that the same line of talk and the same underhanded work will be continped.

Thers was ne intention of holding to its promises. Such would have stoed in the way of Germany's plans, and the lopger that wation aceepis such deal- ings the longer they will be prac- ticed. —_— PUSHING 'ON TO VIGTORY. Wkile the central powers are again flving peace kites and pretending that there is such a close understanding among the three remaining natiops that there-is no chapce of any fur- ther bregks it is impossible to over- look the progress thaf is being made by the armies under the direction of General Foch. Along the whale west- ern fropt the allied offengive is daily gaining ground and making such gains that the epemy not aniy realizes the impesgibility of retaining their stropgly fortified defensive positions but is alfeady engaged in hasty re- treat which means the giving up of not' only what he hojds of nortirern France bpt retirement over o2 larze stretch of territory in Belgium. With the addition of the million and three-auprters of American soi- diers the alljes are raliving magnifi- cently to the sithation. They are not cnly recovering much territory but they are exacting a toll in killed, vounded and prisoners. which is dis- coneertipng to the German public as well as the army. It is being shown that the central powers are losing the supremacy of which they have boast- ed, if in fact it has not alfeady been shown to be so fully in the hands of the allies that there is po chanee of recoveripg it. The ynified coptrel of the allied forees is accomplishing just what was expected of it and is cop- stantly growing stromger and more ef- feetive. And what is true of the western front shows up en worse in the Balkans. There Bulgaria and its ad- vantageous position has been lost apd Austria-Hudgary and Turkey both recognizged the danger to them in- volyed in the changs. The time is ripe for preqsip; home the victory #nd no opportunities are being lost to accomplish it. THE MQRGAN EXPLOSION. There will of course he an investi- zation of the frightful expipsion and fire which oceurfed at the big am- munition plant at = Mprgan, N. J. Whether it will be pessible to deter- mine what was the cause of the dis- aster which took many lives, injured a much larger number and piled up a loss of s score or more mijlions af dollars capnot he foretold although it weuld not be surprising if those who knew had been caught in the whirl- wind. But the fact that it has happened with its effects spreading over a wide stretch of territory is not gping to prevent an immediate recenstruction of the plant. Until that cam be ac- complished it is geing to mean that the eother ammunition plants akbout the "country must through increased production take cgre of the decrease which will be experienced in the pro- duct from that plant. We cannot permit any slowing up in the quan- tity of ammunition which is needed by our forces in the field. It will mean a temporary handicap but it must be quickly overcome. And while steps are already beinz taken for the rebuilding of the dam- 4ged plant it is to be hoped that it will be possible to improve upon the former arrangement af the buildings so that one unit will so far as possi- Lle be no mengee to amether. This mnay have been the i¢ga in cennection with the former layout bu the ex- perienge which has heen had ought to be of mueh value in the reconstruc- tion work. It has painted out anew the great danger which surrounds plants where ammunition is made and cmphasizes again the great need of doing everything possible to prevent #uch catastrophes. EDITORIAL NOTES, The fly these days is as atroclous, inconsiderate and unpopular as the Hun. There will be ne meurning, except possibly in Berlin, over King Ferdi- nand's abdication. The man on the corner says: Sinb- bornness and common sense seldom show good team wark. There is no better way of taking care of the future thgn by the pur- chase of Liberty bonds, In order to keep the bullets fiying, those hack at home must keep the nigh gear on the bhond buying. The Teutons are finding out that when the Americans go forward it is neoessary to die, run or surrender. The advice which is being given for the preventian of the influenza should be carefully followed., It is preferable to be safe than to be sor- . 7 If by any chanee yeu are net able to purchase Libérty bonds do net for- get that the geod woris can be pushed along by the purchase of war saving stamps. After the reply of the allies to the latest peace proposition is received it will be proper for the kaiser tg tell his people that he has dane every- thing pessible to hring this terribie war to an, end. Had Germany been making the at- tack on an allied base sueh as Du- razzo, ¢an anyome imagine the war- <hips allowing a hospital vessel to withdrgw unteuched? That would haye been the first one the Germans would haye sunk. Germany has tried again to get, ac- eording to its ewn ideas, what the en- tente natians have said it cannot have. It might just as well get right down to brass taeks and surrendey without congitions or ai‘:; settle back and take the inevitable. * WASHINGTON . AFFAIRS (Special to The' Bulioting Washingi .

The replacement of the injured goldiers ang sajlors into civil life with assured employment for such as are able to w_mr‘k. is one of the greatest questions confron the country, and various plans have already been suggested on ‘hf figor of congress, althangh no defi- pite schemefs before it for considera- tion. The war department has manv plans in view for the rehabiiitation of the soldiers, and Secretary lane of the depariment of the ipterior is advoeat- ing that the spare and waste lands of the goyernment shall be turned over to the men for cultivation, but what will really result is still entirely conjecture.

And we must see that con- gress, which will have to make the reconstruction laws when peace is de- clared, is the body which shall stady in adyance the preblems which wiil arise. The functions of congress must not be taken from it and given over to the exeentive nor to a federal eom- l("nission" said one of the leaders to- ay. Washington took time Ly the fore- lock and prepared to meet the in- fluenza epidemic by closing all the schools, theaters, churches and other rlaces where people gather. 1 “staggered” the hours of opening the great government departments where more than 100,000 persons are cm- ployed and where the universal open- icg hour of 9 a. m. crowded the sireet| curs to the most and increased the danger. Tie uniform hours of wpening and ciosing resulted in a rush that huddled thousands into the illy ventiated spaces intended for hundreds. Now the departments epén at varying heurs Letween 7.30 and. 9.30 and close with correspending differenee. The stores are forbidden by the city authurities ta cpen befere 14 a. m, so the warkers are out of the way before the sheppers begin to ride. Thus far there has been no epi- demie, but there are enough cases and deaths on recard to put the health authorities on guard. The city is so overerowded that it is an exception- ally good fleld for an epidemic of any sort. In many instances three and four persons arg occupying a sleep- ing room intended for one. Hotels close their pariors at an early hour and put in 3s many cots as the roam will held. The lunch rooms are so erowded that there is no more elbow room than a straightjacket would af- ford. As a result of these stringent erders Washington on Sunday wag a silent city. Not only was it a gas- less Supday, and not a henk heard on the streets, but the churches were clesed and the vaudeville and moy whieh run the same Sundays as we days out here, were shut tight as drums. The Catholic churches heid mass on the lawns, other denomina: tions held prayer and song services in the open; otherwise there was scarcely a sound to be heard in this city of 460,000 people. Airpianes from the nearby training ground flew con- stantly overhead, and the hum gof their motors was about the only sound that broke the abnermal still~ ness of the day. Among the bills which passed the house this week was one providing for the purchase of uniforms, aceou- trements and equipment by officers of the marine corps, ceast guard and v the midshipmen of the Naval Academy at Annapolis and the cadets at the Ceast Guard Aeademy at New Iondon. The resolution provides thai these shall “be furnished by the gov- erament at cost, subjeet to such re- strictions and rezulations as the sec- retary of the navy may prescribe.” The resolution diq not include the coast guard cadets when it reached the house, but Congressman Walsh of Massaehuseits introduced an amend- ment to have themr included, and the amendment was adopted and became @ part of the bill as passed.
