Several of the locil boards have re ceived complaints from men asking ex emptions that notaries have charged fees ranging from 60 cents, the legal fee. up to $2 50. The boards that have received cpm palnts say they will use their power to give oaths to the men arklng exemption unless notaries quit tho practlco of over charging. The members of the boards havo ins power 10 awear applicant. INDUSTRIAL CLAIMS DECREASE While there have been a great many Claims for exemption on Industrial grounds, the number of claims aeked for on this ground Is rapidly decreasing, owing to the fact that Information as to what employ ment furnishes grounds for exemption is getting to be thoroughly understood by tho drafted men.

"Our situation Is this," the olllclal said "A neighbor has entered our home, ravaged those things we hold most dear We tatrh the enemy. Ho Is within our power Then another neighbor enters He suggeHts that wo not kill tho man who drstrovid our happiness He suggests tint we give the beast his freedom, that a purso bo taken In the neighborhood to restore the losses we have suffered nnd that we then go on and live In peace beside the man who ruined our family. 'The thought Is Impossible preposterous It Is revolting to even conceive of a peace vi Ith Germany based on tho terms tho Pope has outlined " In his missago to the Russian people Ht Juno tho President Ind the following to say regarding attempts to icstoro tho Matus quo ante- 'Of course, the Imperii!

The hint Is launched that Germany may havo chosen the Vatican ns a means of surrendering gracefully, without Incur ring disaster and possible revolution at home. In any event, be the offer accepted or re jected, It will serve to Implant peace seeds In all nations an nothing else has done In recent months Russia promises to hall the proposal more or less Joyfully. Socialists and pacifists will get behind It, while the worklngmen of Europe are likely to be rather favorable to It The State Department said recently the world would hearken thoughtfully to any bona fide peace offer. Tho Pope. It Is believed, has the mixlmum and minimum Teuton terms Ills sugges tions, manifestly unacceptable to either the Allied or American standard In some re spects, could be used as n basis of negotia tions. It Is held The proposal to leave settlement of the Alsace-Lorraine, and Ralktn problems to peveful negotiation Is regarded here as a special stumbling block, On the other hind the Pope's proposil could be so altered as to permit of terri torial readjustments satisfactory to the President and the Kntente and preventive of future troubles, If the o-rer Is Inspired by a genuine Idea of surrender on Ger many'n part One thing that makes the Tope's offer mc,Te difficult of handling here Is the fact that he advocate) things for which the President himself has stood The Presi dent, It Is pointed out, was for long reluc tant to Join In tho struggle and determined In so far as In his power lay, to keep the United States at peace His sentiments on peace mi) hivo tomt Important henrlng In the present Ittntlon Entente diplomat! here ar virtually unanimous In tpposlng anything other than rejection of the offer Rrltlsh diplomats tny that Belgium, Frinee Serbia and Rumania must be nctu all cvacunted before peice discussion can start Germanv must not he allowed to enter tho peice councils with all her lost terrltoo regained and free from subjection to reparation nnd guarantees At the Italian Embtsy It was stated Mlnlstci Meda, of th Italian Catholic ntrtv rerentlj spoke his country's convic tions when he said "Pence cannot come as a result of the decision of a few and It rannot come from persons with senti mental or fallacious ideals which they pretend to Impose on tho historical reallt " "In theory the Pope's move eems to re semble earlier peace proposals of President Wilson " ono French diplomat Kild "Nnt urallv It will recelvo the same attention tho President's utterancea nlwajH received It is apparent, however, that behind the Vatican's movo Is Austria nnd German, and In these circumstances It imj rebound to tho Interests of the encm "It Is for this reason that the Vntlcm's movo will most probably fall. The war mui,t go on to Its logical conclusion " uui or tne new Russian democracy, how ever, came this view "The Vatican move should be taken seriously, perhaps as the most serious peace move yet made Russia Is determined to right through another winter If need be. but she will certainly welcome nny bona fide peace move that bears a gocd likeness to her own peace formula ' Tho fact that the Vatican's offer Ins been made after probable consultation with Menni and the Erzberger Catholic faction In Germany need not necessarily stamp It as a German trap to 'cash In the Kaiser s military victories' On the rontrar, Ger many may bo choosing the Vatican to make a surrender which she could not make openly herself without incurring disaster and possible revolution at home Shn may have Indicated to the Pope her willingness iu evacuate nortnern France nnd Belgium nnd to leave settlements of other questions to a peace conference " TEXT NOT YET AT CAPITAL The formal note had not reached the State Department up to mldforenoon today. There was nn official suggestion that it might not ho delivered to tho United States v.overnmeni, tnougn the authority for this Intimation said he had not had any advices to show that such was the case Secretary Lansing's Information Is known to have been that the, Pope would make an appeal though it was not stated definitely that the United States would be Included Stato Department officials profess to have no ldei ns to who will deliver the message though the general Impression was that It would como through tho Spanish Ambas sador because of the close relations between Spain and tho Church. Permission for Maximilian Harden to re publish his paper, the Zukunft. nnd his Im mediate appeal for return of Alsace and Trlesto were reported in State Department cables offhlals thought Harden's article may have been Inspired as "part of the game " .Thf,r,1 H no formaI agreement between tho Allies as to a united course of action toward peaco proposals, it was silted unof ficially today It was Informally under stood, however, when Arthur Halfour and Reno Vlvlanl were here tint tliero would bo no acceptance of an peai o proffer that failed to accomplish the war objectives of tho Allies. peace conditions. President Wilson Is re garded as having outlined the alms for which America Is fighting In language which the entire world can understand. Whllo the official text of the Pope's pro posals Is still unavailable, the unofficial Intimations of It here give the Impression that It Is In reality a plea for establish ment of tho status quo as the first basis of peace. All Allied Powers, Including Amer- lei, have previously stated this Is Impossible, REGARDED AS ILL-TIMED The proposals of his holiness are regarded as lll-ttmcd, despite the good Intentions he may have In advancing them. The general Impression in England Is that his peace message Is of German Inspira tion, furnished through Austria, although there Is a disposition to withhold final Judgment for the present Although the terms, as outlined from unofficial sources, are generally along lines which have been regarded as acceptable to Germany under nicsent military condi tions, It Is noted that they go farther than any Germany has so far put forth, PRESS SCOFFS AT OFFER Under the heading "The Great Peace Offensive" tho Evening Standard this after noon says "It (the Pope's ap eal) shOa that Ger many Is working with might nnd main to get peace before tho full weight of the United States Is felt on the battlefield. Tho Pope must be ulngularly Ill-informed as to tho state of public feeling among the Allies " The Westminster Gazette deprecaten the hasty assumption that the Pope's nppenl Is the result of German Intrigue, but points out the futlllt of such proposals to long as Germany approves of tho Kaiser's dec laration to former Ambassador Gerard that there is "no longer an International law " The Pall Mall Gnretto nsks "What se curity nro the Allies to receive of tho ful flllmniit of ifh terms mentioned by the Pope so long no Germany retains tho power to break treaties nnd her long series of crimes go unpunished?" Characterizing tho anneal as Inromnarahl. foil the Globe tas "The foolish buzrlngs of the Vatican will provoko nothing but laughter nnd con tempt " LEWIS WANTS CONGRESS TO LEAVE PEACE MOVE TO PRESIDENT WILSON WASHINGTON, Aug ID. Senator Lewis, of Illinois, Democratic whip today Introduced a revolution Intended to stop congressional Interference In the conduct of peace negotiations. The resolution designed ns a substitute for the La Folletto peaco resolution Intro duced Saturday declares that congressional in.-ii.-f moves .at huh time will bo embarrass ing to the Administration Tho Lewis resolution would commit Con gress to n 'Innds-ort" policy Its adoption would place Congress squarely on record as backing up the Administration In vigorous prosecution of the war. The ip solution follows: Whereas, the United States Is at war with the Imperial German Government, caused by act-i rf nggresslon upon the United States by the said Imperial Ger man Government, and preceding tho suggestion of the President of the United States, works confusion in the discipline of the naval and military forces of the United States and embar rasses the Executive In the due perform ance of the duty of conducting the war with unity of action and vigor of pur pose, as now devolves upon him. Senator Sherman, of Illinois, Introduced a resolution this afternoon calling on the President to enter Into peaco negotiations upon the following terms: "So annexations" "No Indemnities " "Guarantees for the rights of small na tions." "Freedom of high seas." "Discontinuance of submnrlne warfare against merchantmen " "Rehabilitation of Belgium by a common fund levied upon all the belligerents."
