SEE APPROACH OF PEACE DEAL German Paper Claims Both Sides Can Now Discuss Negotiations London, Dec. 5. An article pre dicting the approach of peace nego tiations has appeared in the Berlin Tageblatt and is quoted in an Amster dam dispatch to the Exchange Tele graph Company. The Tageblatt says: "The moment Is near when a busi ness peace will be possible—a peace which the allies and the central pow ers can discuss in view of the securi ties they possess. Of course those who consider such a proposal must not be allowed to return home empty-hand ed. The status quo anta bellum is impossible singp the independence of Poland is proclaimed but it is remark able that the number of Germans who wish to annex Belgium has shrunk recently to almost nothing while many pan-Germans are ready to-day to lis ten to the word 'pacifism without pro test. | The Tageblatt says that the fact i that Germany wants a business peace I is a sign not of weakness but of com | mon sense. The Vosslsche %eitung also prints an article discussing the possibility of peace. It says: "Probably Ambassador Gerard Is returning to Germany with some peace proposals." If such is thf case, the paper goes on, America is an unsuit able mediator and It warns Germany to accept the services of President Wilson only as a messenger and not as an arbitrator. Gerard Declares He Is NSt Carrying Peace Plan New York, Dec. s.—James W. Gerard, United States ambassador to Germany, returns to his post to-day bearing the views of President Wilson regarding submarine warfare and the deporta tion of Belgians for presentation to the Imperial government. Before board ing his steamer, the Frederick VIII, Ambassador Gerard declared that he carried no peace plan back to Ger many. PEACE SEJiTIMENT STRONG . Berlin, Dec. 5, by Wireless.—Editor ials appeared in virtually all the news papers yesterday commenting on the present political situation as Influenced by recent n'llltary events In Rumania and economic conditions In the entente countries and stating that apparently the sentiment for peace has been strengthened In these countries. A majority of the newspapers speak of the possible Intentions of Ambassador | Gerard on his return from the United , Btates and of the rumors that a British 1 ministerial crista Is impending. WILSON'S DEBT TO CALIFORNIA IMPERILS OIL Power of Land Exploiters En hanced by Presidential Vote of State Washington. D. C.—lnvolved with a heavy political obligation of the Wll aon administration to the State of Cali fornia, the vital Interest of the United States Navy in the preservation of Its reserve fuel oil supply is again In Jeopardy. In every way the light between the oil land exploiters and those support ing the btoad national interest of preservation of these vital oil supplies to the navy promises to be more bitter than ever before. Far stronger influences are now I marshaled in support of the oil land speculator who seeks legislation from Congress which would rob the navy of every barrel of reserve fuel oil that is required to protect the navy against a shortage In a future time of crisis. Their Power Knlinurcd The part played by California in giv ing Woodrow Wilson the electoral votes which enabled him to nose out ahead in the close presidential race has Inevitably greatly enhanced the power of the political influences sup porting or obeying the oil land claim ant In this big battle. And in the crucial campaign waged by the administration in California for those thirteen electoral votes the oil interests were not backward in seek ing pledges of support from those whose fate was at stake on Novem ber 7. The weight of such political in fluence in such a situation is not hard to sain. Senator Phelan was the "original Wilson man" in California, rie financed the campaign of Franklin K. Lane when he was a candidate for the office of governor of California, and it was Senator Phelan, according to the best obtainable Information, who obtained the appointment of Mr. Lane to the Wilson Cabinet. It was Senator Phelan more than any other man who won for Wilson in California on November 7 last. Senator Phelan is the father of the legislation which would turn the navy's oil land over to these private interests. A strohg plea for the establishment of suitable petroleum preserves for the United States navy formed the burden of a statement made by Assistant Sec retary of the Navy Franklin D. Roose velt to a representative of the Navy League of the United States In Wash ington. Navy Depends On It Mr. Roosevelt considers that the future existence of the navv depends upon prompt and adequate action. He points out that the supply of petro leum Is steadily diminishing and be lieves that in the matter of oil lands withdrawn from public entry by the government, part of which is claimed by cntrymen, a suitable tribunal should be created to adjudicate between the government and private claimants. "It is absolutely vital, said Mr. Roosevelt, "that the navy should be able to obtain, within Its own borders, enough fue to supply the navy's needs. This, I estimate, for the fiscal year 1917, approximately one and one-half million bairels. With the building of new ships the demand will increase until In 1923 almost seven million bar rels will be required, and by 1927 it will be necessary to provide over ten millions of barrels." Mr. Roosevelt points out that oil burning ships mean more speed; con trol over smoke emission, so that ad vantage may be taken of the ability to utilize smoke screens: reduction of the lire room force; ability to refuel at sea and greater safety to vessels from submarine attack because of srreater permissible subdivision of ship and other points well understood by naval experts.
