Has the President Widened the Path to Peace? President Wilson’s peace note, coming wholly unexpected, has stirred the world to profound depths. In effect the President asks the belligerents to tel! in clear terms what they are fighting to accomplish. The Nev,- York Times, in referring to the note, questions “whether it is timely and whether it can do any good.” Senator Stone, Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, declares it “a very timely proffer” and believes “it is the beginning of the end.” Prof. Ellery C. Stowell, of Columbia University, an authority on International Law, declares, “the President has chosen the psychological moment,’’ while the German Ai’r Yorker Stoats-Zcaung says precisely the same thing. On the other hand, Senator Weeks, of Massachusetts, has declared the President’s act “ill-timed and unwise,” and the New York Tribune declares that to the Allies the President’s proposal “will seem a deliberate effort to give force and power to a German maneuver made in the name of peace but intended to promote the process of protit-taking as a result of a violation of right and justice." You must read THE LITERARY DIGEST for December 30th if you would get an unclouded idea of the effect that the President’s peace proposal has made in every quarter. “he article is supplemented by another of equal value which gives in detail a history of the German peace moves. Other features of unusual interest in THE LITERARY DIGEST for December 30th are: Allies Ask Restitution, Reparation, Security An Analysis of Lloyd George’s Key-note Speech, Including Comments and Criticisms from the German and British Press What Germany Means by Peace Mining at a Gun Club Poland, a Fantom Kingdom Escape from a Sunken Submarine Defending Belgium’s Deportations A French Art Critic’s Optimism The New Queen of Sheba War On the Classics In Germany Inventing an Inventor Gain and Loss in American Drama A Gigantic Tunnel Project London Street Shrines Injustice to the Insane A Japanese Vice-Crusade Buying Islands for Defense Stonemen Invade the Metropolis An Excellent Selection of Striking Illustrations, Including Humorous Cartoons ANNUAL MOTOR NUMBER Motor car, Motor truck and Motor accessory buyers will save time and money by consulting this week’s “ Digest.” It is the Annual Automobile Issue and contains announcements of the leading motor car, motor truck and accessory manufacturers.
