LEARLY foreshadowed, the reply of the Entente Governments to the peace proposals of the Central Powers neither changed nor advanced matters. Characterizing Germany’s overtures as “empty and insincere,” the allies refuse to regard them as anything more than a carefully calculated “war manoeuvre” one of the chief purposes of which is “to justify in advance in the eyes of the world a new series of crimes—submarine warfare, deportations, forced labor and forced enlistment of the inhabitants against their own countries, and violations of neutrality.” In again insisting with special emphasis upon the wrongs which Belgium has suffered at the hands of Germany, the allies are grimly consistent. From the first the nations fighting against her have. maintained that Germany's deliberate overrunning of neutral Bel-| gium was the earliest of her intolerable crimes. They still hold it unpardonable. Nor has the subsequent treatment of the Belgians! been anything but wanton aggravation of the initial wrong. So much, History itself will record in its judgments. It is not surprising that| the allies never state their case without a special page for Belgium. Will Germany presently endeavor to make known through the President of the United States enough of her terms to suggest that) she does not consider “reparation for violated rights and liberties” to lie outside her obligations, thereby implying that she is ready not/ only to repair her injustice toward Belgium, but also to indemnify, it may be, other claimants? If Germany desires peace with the earncst- | ness indicated by many signs, she has not gone so far without the! intention of going farther. | If she does go farther, then neutrality, which, since the action or, of neutral European nations and the republics of South America, has| become more than ever centred in the President of the United States, belligerents to belligerents with the proper accompaniment or absence of comment, to guard the rights of neutral nations and save thém from threatened violation, to serve the cause of peace and at the same nent peace, to proffer mediation and yet play no nation’s game—no more complicated problem could present itself to statesmanship- hold out hope of nobler achievement and reward. HELP SAVE NEW YORK. HE Save New Yotk Committee, which has steadily worked to! free the city’s great retail and shopping zone from crowding manufacturing establishments, begins the New Year with an appeal for the support and co-operation of every property owner, business man and citizen who hopes to keep New York the pre-eminent business The appeal should not be made in vain. ‘Ihe leaders of the Save New York movement have gone about their task with energy, perseverance and tact. Instead of antagonizing manufacturers manufacturers their friends and helpers by convincing them that the cloak, suit and garment trade will be the better off for concentrating its workshops and salesrooms in another section, Hundreds of such district between Thirty-second and Fifty-ninth Streets as soon as their leases expire, or sooner if they can make the necessary arrange- ments. ment which is obviously for the advantage of everybody who lives in| New York or does business in New York. Surely owners of property in the retail shopping zone should be willing to watch their leases and clothing. Surely real estate brokers should be ready to co-operate for the same end. ; The Save New York Committee has inaugurated and carried section from becoming a conglomeration of interests crowding one another in an unsightly, inconvenient huddle. By this time all New York should be glad to recognize what the committee has done and will have a delicate and trying task. To transmit proposals from time never lose sight of the only conditions that can make for perma- ey T and congestion caused by the encroachment of workshops and, capital and shopping centre of the country already located in the retail section, they have made most of these manufacturers have willingly pledged themselves to remove from the Surely the larger public can be relied upon to back up a move- make certain that their premises are not used for the manufacture of far toward success a campaign to-keep New York’s finest business lend a hand to push its plans to realization N | YouNG MA 1REA FHUCE TEND BY BS FhariReN BL0e.NN Freping World Daily Magazine reser sesssera torr ] Covrtght,, 1917, We, fom Kaptisting On. 7 By J.H |!
