OFFER OF PEACE IS
MADE TO RUSSIA BY
GERMAN CHANCELLOR
Von BethmantjpHollweg Refuses to Give Outlines of
Terms on Which War Might End; Declares
U-Boats Are Operating Successfully
By Associated Press
lierllw, via London, May 16. —1n
one of the most vigorous and plain
spoken speeches he has yet made be
fore the Reichstag since the outbreak
of the war, the Imperial Chancellor
has bluntly refused to enter into a
discussion of Germany's peace aims j
as demanded in interpellations by
the Conservatives and Socialists. Dr.!
Von Mithniann-Hollweg asserted that
those called for the government's
specific peace program, the an
nouncement of which would at the
present time not only be premature
but which it would be difficult to for
mulate, and also of no practical ser
vice to the nation in the present
situation.
While appreciating the passionate
desire of all classes to know the gov
ernment's views, the Chancellor
plainly declared that he would not
permit himself to be swayed by pres
sure from any source, and that he
was not under the spell of any party
or clique. The best interests of the
nation, he believed demanded that
the reticence he had imposed on
himself in the face of continuous
clamor since December, 1915, should
be observed by the national at large,
which continued to rally around its
Emperor, and would axso meet tho
views of the majority of the mem
bers of the Reichstag.
Generalities Only
"On giving liberty for the free dis
cussion of war aims I have it ex
pressly declared that the government
could not and would not participate
in the conflict of views," declared
the Chancellor. "I also protested
against any positive conclusions
whatever regarding the government's
attitude being drawn from the gov
ernment's silence.
"I now repeat this protest in the
most conclusive form. What I was
ever able to say about our war aims
1 say here in the Reichstag publicly.
They were general principles—-they
could not be more—but they were
clear enough to exclude identification
such as was attemnted with other
programs. These fundamental lines
have been adhered to up to to-day.
They found further solemn expres
sion in the peace offer made con
jointly with our allies of December
12. 1916.
"The supposition, which has re
cently arisen, that some differences
of opinion existed on the peace ques
tion between us and our allies be
longs to the realm of fable. I ex
pressly affirm this now with cer
tainty. I am. at the same time, also
expressing the conviction that the
leading statesmen of the powers
which are our allies are with us.

tooth paste,
L A keeps teeth clean AND GUMS HEALTHY.
Keeping the gums healthy and the mouth sweet Is very important to
health; more teeth are lost through the loosening of the tissue that hoids the
teeth in place than from decay.
Dental science to-day demands that a tooth paste must keep the gums
healthy as weii as clean the teeth.
Senreco was formulated to meet this requirement. Hundreds of den
tists are prescribing and using Senreco because they have found that it does
measure up to that standard.
SENRECO IS A WONDERFUL CLEANSER.
In addition to its remedial properties Senreco is a wonderful cleanser;
acts directly on the mucin film, the basis of tcrtar; leaves the mouth cool
and clean-feeling. As some one has expressed it—Senreco gives one a new
idea on mouth cleanliness.
Get a tube to-day at your druggists or toilet counter—enjoy the healthy,
cleanly feeling its use give* your mouth and gums. Notice how brilliantly
white Senreco makes your teeth. It performs this two-fold service for you
and yet costs no more than the ordinary, old-fashioned tooth paste that
simply cleans the teeth and leaves a pleasant taste—2s cents for a large
t ounce tube. •

stand the passionate Interest of tho ■
people in tho war alms and peace i
conditions. I understand the call for '
clearness which to-day Is addressed j
to me from the right and the left.
But In the discussion of our war alma
tho only guiding line for me is the
early and satisfactory conclusion of
the war. Beyond that I cannot do or
say anything.
"Even to-day I see no readiness
for peace on the part of England or
France, nothing of the abandonment
of their excessive aims of conquest
and economic destruction. Where
(hen were the governments who last
winter openly stood up before the I
world In order to terminate this in-1
sane slaughter of peoples? Were
they in London or in Paris? The
most recent utterance which I have
heard from London declares that the
war aims which were announced two
years ago remain unaltered.
• Offers Russia Peace
"As regards our eastern neighbor,
Russia, I have already recently
spoken. It appears as if New Rus
sia had declined for herself these
violent plajis of conquest. Whether
Russia will or can act in the same
sense on her allies 1 am unable to
estimate. Doubtless England, with
the assistance of her allies, is em
ploying all her efforts to keep Russia
harnessed to England's war chariot
and to traverse Russian wishes for
speedy restoration of the world's
peace.
"If, however, Russia wants to pre-J
vent further bloodshed and re
nounces all violent plans of conquest
for herself, if she wishes to restore
durable relations of peaceful life side
by side with us. then surely It js a
matter of course that we, as we
share this wish, will not disturb the
permanent relationship in the fu
ture and will not render its develop
ment impossible by demands, which,
indeed, do not accord with the free
dom of nations and would deposit
in the Russian nation the germ of
enmity (thunderous applause).
Military Position Good
"I doubt not that an agreement,
aiming exclusively at a mutual un
derstanding, could be attained, which
excludes every thought of oppression
and which would leave behind no
sting and no discord.
"Our military position has never
been so good since the beginning of
the war. The enemy in the west, de
spite his terrible . losses, cannot
break through. Our U-boats are
operating with Increasing success. I
won't use any line words about them;
the deeds of our U-boat men speak
for themselves. 1 think even the
neutrals will recognize these."
President Anxious to
Stop Food Speculation
Washington, May 16. —Delegations
of labor leaders here for conferences
with the British labor envoys were
told by President Wilson at the
White House yesterday that he con
sidered that'"nothing woulfl be more
deplorable" than any movement in
the present crisis to set aside tem
porarily the laws which safeguard
standards of labor.
I'l do not doubt," said the Presi
dent, "that any body of men repro
senting labor will be willing to make
any sacrifice that is necessary to
carry this contest to a successful
Issue, and in this confidence I fe?l
that It would be Inexcusable if we
deprived men and women of such a
spirit of any of the existing safe
guards of the law."
The President mentioned particu
larly proposals to have state legis
latures set aside labor standard laws
during the war. He declared he had
been "much alarmed" by such sug
gestions.
In the delegation were about one
hundred fifty labor representatives,
headed by Samuel Gompers and his
associates on the labor committee of
the National Defense Council. After
the visit to the White House they
went into conference with the Brit
ish labor leaders at the American
Federation headquarters, discussing
in detail wartime labor problems.

Choate's Memory Honored
by English Jurists
By Associated Press
London, May 16.—A1l the Judges of
the higher courts gathered in the
King's bench division this morning to
pay respect to the memory of Joseph
H. Choate. Viscount Reading, lord
chief justice, who presided, paid an
eloquent tribute to the distinguished
American. Mr. Choate, said the chief
justice, was a lawyer above every
thing. He was cradled in the law,
loved his profession, and his thoughts
were influenced by the study of the
law. He was not only an American
lawyer, but a Bencher of the middle
temple. He also was a great ambas
sador and one of the most distinguish
ed citizens of the United States.
They remembered him, Vlscounf
Reading continued, as one who was
gracefui and eloquent in his orations
and dignitted aud lofty in his more se
rious utterances. He had charm and
humor In his lighter efforts and
throughout all there could always be
traced one great Ideal—"co-operation
etween our two nations."

This cow was nineteen years of

Chronicle challenged any of its
readers to produce a better record
made by a cow.
Nothing daunted, the "News ac

Charles Kirk, of Dover, who now
comes amd depones as follows: That
until three years ago he was the
owner of a thoroughbred Jersey
cow, whlclf, at the age of nineteen
years and ten months, gave birth to
her nineteenth calf; that at the age
of sixteen years she was producing
forty-two pounds of milk per day,
which tested five per cent, at the

was twenty-one years of age she
went blind, and was disposed of to
Cincinnati parties.

MINISTRY OF FOOD
New Cabinet Member Now
One of Most Important
Advisers
I<ondon, May 16. —Not long ago
there slipped unobtrustvely into the
British cabinet an untried ministry
of food. Britain, reading her room
ing newspaper;, noted the fact, raised
her eyebrows and then became en
grossed In othor things. She was not
troubling herself about ministerics of
food when there was a big war on
hand.
To-day the ministry of food ranks]
In importance with the admiralty, j
the war department und the minis-1
try of munitions in the conduct of |
the war. Britain now anxiously |
reads the doings and sayings of the j
ministry of food along with the news I
of the army and of the navy for she i
has come to the realization that the j
stocks of her food are low. the sub
marine menace to her shipping Is I
very real and that the question of i
the duration of the world conflict!
and possibly even the outcome are j
Interlocked with the food' problem. ]
The ministry, headed by Lord De- j
vonport, has grown until its actlvi- i
ties are felt In every corner of the
British Isles.
Resentment at First
When Lord Devon port first began
to dictate to hotel, restaurant and
boarding housekeepers as to what
they must eliminate from their
menus and to suggest the same cur
tailment In the private homes, there
was considerable perturbation. The
people didn't quite understand the
necessity of such drastic action. They
understand It now, and as a whole
have accepted the situation in a
true spartan spirit. The habitue of
the restaurant down with a
smile to a fare that, compared with
pre-war days, is decidedly frugal,
and Teels no little pride in the fact
that he is "doing his bit" by living
up to the rules.
Thus far Lord Devonport's edicts
have been most noticed In the clubs
and public eating places. Not only
has the food controller told the res
taurant man when he may and may
not serve meat and potatoes, but he
has specified the quantity of meat,
bread, sugar and flour to which each
person is entitled at the various
r:eals. Public eating places are al
lowed each week a sufficient quantity
of these foodstuffs to give the pat
ron o fthe average, the following:
Meat Curtailment
"Two ounces of meat for break
fast. five ounces for luncheon, the
same amount for dinner and none
| for tea. TSe weight of the meat Is
I the uncooked weight. Including
; such bone as Is usually delivered by
the butcher. Two ounces of poultry
and game are reckoned as one ounce
of meat. .
Two ounces of bread are allowed
for each meal including the after
noon tea. Only two -sevenths of an
ounce of sugar may be had for each
of the four meals, and flour is lim
ited to one ounce for luncheon and
one for dinner. In arriving at the
1 weight of the flour and sugar, the
i proprietor must take Into consider
ation the fact that cakes, pastry,
i biscuits, confectionery and similar
i articles contain 30 per cent, of flour
and 20 per cent, of sugar by weight.
In many places now sugar is serv
ed in tiny tin envelopes each con
taining the amount allotted by law.
While the food controller has not
yet placed the private hope on ra-
I tions, he has made strenuous ap
peals to housekeepers to see that vol
untary rations are maintained.
Bread meat and sugar being the most
important articles of diet, the con
troller has asked that each person
limit the weekly diet to not mora
than four pounds of bread, a half
pound of sugar and two and a half
pounds of meat.
President Suggests a
Committee on Suffrage
By Associated Press
Washington, May 16.—President'
Wilson has written a letter to Repre
sentative Pou, of the House Rules
Rules Committee, suggesting that the
creation of a special House commit

wise act of public policy. The Presi
dent said he had no desire to interfere
such matters but pointed out
that he had been told that an ap
proval by him of the Idea might result
in the creation of such a committee.
In his letter he did not deal with the
merits of the woman's suffrage ques
tion. The Senate already has such a
committee.
