TROOPS FROM U. S. MARCH IN LONDON STREETS Decorated Profusely by En thusiastic Crowds; Parlia ment Views Parade • • i By Associated Press London, Aug. 15.—American troops marched through London to-day. They were reviewed by Ambassador Page and later by King George at Buck ingham Palace. Great crowds lined t the streets, which were decorated pro fusely with American and British flags. _ Knthusiasm was shown every where. The Americans were cheered by civilians, by soldiers on their way to the front and by wounded jnen. The troops were escorted by guard bands. A meeting of the cabinet was in progress when the Americans ap proached Whitehall. It was adjourned to permit the premier and his col leagues to pay their compliments to the Americans. The. cabinet went In a body to the war office. As the Americans passed the Horse Guards parade to Whitehall they were greeted from the windows of the war office by Premier Lloyd George. For eign Secretary Balfour, Chancellor Bonar Law, War Secretary Derby. Winston Spencer Churchill, minister of munitions; George N. Barnes, mem ber of the war council; Admiral Jelli coe, and other high officials, as well as by French and Belgian officers. The evening newspapers say that for a parallel to the scenes witnessed to-day in the neighborhood of Trafal gar Square it probably would be nec essary to recall the time of the South African war and the return home of troops.

[ LONDON AROUSED BY POPE'S ACTION Peace Proposal Is Declared to Come at the Psycholog ical Moment London, Aug. 15. The Pope's peace proposal comes at the psycho logical moment to have the greatest 1 Influence here. In Catholic circles the Vatican's action is naturally considered a a highly Important step along the road to peace which undoubtedly has been greatly shortened in the last two months. The terms are in line with the general opinion with the excep tion of Alsace-Lorraine which the majority hold should be returned to France as one of the preliminary steps to negotiations. All the Pope's previous interven tions have been academic rather than practical and It Is intimated that he opposed any overtures until both groups of belligerents desired peace. Evidently he considers that that ] time has arrived. It is believed here I that Erzberger conveyed to the Vatican the wish of the great Catholic party in Germany for peace, while the Austrian court since May has been in constant touch with the, Vatican on the question of peace. Mnjjic Word of Peace About a fortnight ago both Geneva papers published a remarkable article denying the theory that tho Pope hoped for restoration and the status quo. The statement that his proposals will lead to nothing is absurd, for every mention of the word peace is bringing the belliger ents closer together. The peace forces are daily making greater pro- ] Kress in every European belligerent. From Holland comes the report that the Germans intend to make no direct peace move until October. Meanwhile they Intend to see whether America means business, and whether they can depend upon the submarine as a successful weapon. If they are convinced that the United States will prove a failure, then they are prepared to continue the submarine campaign in the ex pectation of defeating the allies in a year and a half.

Q 214, Atlanta, Ga. —Adv. PROPOSAL IS UNACCEPTABLE London Newspapers Sex; Hand of Austria; Utterly Inad missable to Allies London, Aug. 15 Some of the morning newspapers refrain from commenting on the Pope's peace proposals while those which discuss them editorially base their genesis to Austria, and either reject abso lutely or indicate the belief that the text when received will show them to be unacceptable. The Daily News which although a firm sup porter of the allies' aims has a de cided pacifist leaning says that what ever reasons which hitherto re strained the Pope from coming for ward as an official champion of peace, the long delay has materially impaired the advantages the Vatican originally possessed for disinterested intervention. The Chronicle refers to the tra ditional intimacy of Austria and the Vatican and the Austrian court's in tense desire for peace and adds: "The fact that the proposal comes immediately after expulsion of Rus sians from Gallcla and Bukowina will not escape anybody who is in the habit of putting t\vo and two together. We may assume that the Pope acted at Austria's prompting. In any case the allies will have to refuse. No other course is open to them." Utterly Inadmissable The Times, while suspending final judgment until the text is available says the proposals as described in the telegraph summaries are- utterly inadmissible by the allies. It ex presses astonishment at the Vati can's alleged hope that the ddt-u -ment will be favorably received and lead to the not distant end of the war. "To cherish any hope of this," says the paper "betrays a complete ignorance of opinion of all the en tente countries and the United States. They have all stated plainly, emphatically and repeatedly the only term swhereon they are pre pared to consider peace. These terms are quite incompatible with the telegraphed version of the Vati can's proposals." The Post taking it for granted that the proposals are instigated by Germany and remarking that they decided in advance on anything Ger many has hitherto been disposed to discuss attributes her anxiety for an immediate negotiated peace to a realization that the continuance of the war will give her much less than such a negotiated peace because she will have to face with depleted resources the full weight of a new enemy, the American republic." Food Law Violators Get Into Trouble Violators of Pennsylvania's food laws paid $18,506.91 in fines and a large sum in costs during the first six months of 1917 and the revenue of the state dairy and food bureau for the same period from licenses and other sources will run $30,000 above the whole receipts of last year. Wholesale sampling of milk, ice cream, soft drinks and other summer articles has been In progress for some time and the number of ar rests, while proportionately less than In previous years, shows the neces sity of watching such things, say of ficials. In six months milk suits have been brought in practically every county and Commissioner James Foust gives the total fines collected from such offenses as $7,900, while those who used preservatives in milk, who are annually growing fewer, paid $194 in fines. Fines for Ice cream low In required fats aggre gated $325. The soft drink law vio lators paid fines of $1,055. Some of the latter drinks were rather more hard than soft as they contained as much alcohol as beer. One alleg ed punch contained not only enough alcohol to make it intoxicating but salicylic acid, too. Sausage prosecutions were brought because cereals and potatoes were used instead of meat and $5OO was collected from persons who sold lard that had vegetable substances in stead of hog fat. Numerous arrests were made for sale of rotten eggs and foods unfit to eat, including fruits. La Follette's Peace Move Assailed by Paris Paper Paris, Aug- 15 The Figaro, in an attack on Senator LaFollette's de mand in the United States Senate that the American government out line its objects of war. Interprets the senator's action as "the last raising up of the arms of the paci fists in an endeavor to save beaten Germany." The paper adds: "Now that vic tory is assured to the allies, Senator L.a Follette would wrest the spoils from the conquerors, leaving Ger many uncrushed and in a position to raise her head again. "We're Going Over" New Song Said to nival the Famed "Tlpperary" The man who wrote the recent song hit, "America, Here's My Boy," seems to have outd,one himself in a new song Just out, called "We're Go ing Over." It is a stirring work which the soldiers and their sweet hearts are singing and which, pos sesses a remarkable retentive mel ody. Following Is a part of the chorus: We're Going Over CHORUS. V We're going o - ver, we're go- ing o - ver, They want to set - tie up that fuss, and they put it up to us, So what do we care, So^ care, Oopyrljht 1917 It required three writers to create ! this song—Andrew B. Sterling, Ber [ nie Grossman and Arthur Lange. | Throughout the song run strains of J the most alluring kind and the mel i ody, while easily sung, seems also to j afford a fascinating incentive for all |*orts.of dances, one-steps, fox-trofi; j and the like. I Connoisseurs say this sons will ultimately become even more popular than waa "Long Way to Tlpperary." —Adv. JOINT ANSWER IS NOT PROBABLE [Continued from Ilrst Page.] note Is accurate, however. It is felt that the popg has made a premature move for peaco and an extremely dangerous one. Dangerous may seem a curious word to use in this connec tion, but, nevertheless. It is used with intent and precision. The pope's move, it is felt, will greatly confuse the issues of the war In every allied country. It will ap peal very strongly to powerful groups of pacilists, Socialists and labor or ganizations everywhere. In Russia it will strike home with exceptional force; it reaches the heart of the Russian contentions and, further more, Russia is longing for an hon orable peace in order to straighten out her domestic affairs. In England and America the pacifists will seize hold of the pope's proposals with avidity. Ever, in France there are many groups to-day which would be willing to negotiate the question of Alsace-Lorraine and would wel come all the rest of the reported papal proposals. Mill Be Powerful Appeal In short, it !.cems to be tile con sensus of the best American opinion that the pope, if he has made his proposals as complete and ?lear cut as they have been reported, will make a powerful appeal to peace sentiment throughout the world. And this, in the present state of the war, is held by the same American opinion to be both dangerous and premature. It is dangerous because it does not, in the mind of America, cover the really vital issue of the war. It is premature because very clearly it looks, from this side of the water, at least, as if the. time for a real and true peace was not yet at hand. In this connection it is pointed out that the reported papal proposals do not actually touch upon the main question which brought America into the war. They are concerned wholly with territorial adjustments in Eu rope, a matter In which America Is not primarily concerned. They do not bear in any way upon the prob lem of the democratization of Ger many, and by the pope's announce ment of them at this premature time he virtually ignores the importance of this problem. Not that American wishes to im pose democracy upon Germany; she finds herself strictly in line with Bal four on this phase of the question. Democracy must come to German> from within. Hut there is a grow ing conviction in America, a convic tion also in line with Balfour's recent argument, that democracy must come to Germany before the war closes or it will not come at all. In other words, the time for a tfue democrtaic peace will not have ar rived until Germany voluntarily sub jects her government to the rule of her people. See Hand of Austria There seems to be little disposition in American Circles of opinion to deny the assertion that the pope's proposals for peace must in reality spring from Austrian sources. While American opinion is not directly hos tile to Austria, it has to be borne in mind that Austria would not in her present situation inspire such proposals unless they had first been approved by Germany. This at one step brings the whole activity back to Berlin. Pope Wrote Peace Proposals Entirely in Own Handwriting By Associated Press Rome, Tuesday, Aug. 14. The peace proposals of Pope Benedict were written entirely in his own hand writing. The Pope consulted Cardi nal Gasparrl, papal secretary of state; Archbishop Ceretti, assistant papal secretary of state; and Mon signor Tedeschini, papal under sec retary of state, in formulating the document. Archbishop Ceretti, who arrived recently from America, where he stopped on his journey from Australia, is now supervising translation of the communication in to English. The Giornale D'ltalia says the pa pal appeal is the most impressive and most concrete ever addressed to the belligerents, giving them the gen eral lines on which peace negotia tions may be initiated. It adds: "The exploit terms in which the note is worded led to the supposi iton that the intentions of the two belligerent groups arc not in abso lute conflict, with the ideas and hopes of the Pope." I The Tribuna expresses the opinion that the peace proposals were made on independent initiative and that the entente powers will not feel in any way constrained to accept them, although they will receive them with the deference due the sender. Sent by Couriers The Pope's peace proposals were sent by couriers to file European governments. Arrangements were made to cable the document from England to Washington and Tokio, on account of the time which would be required to forward it to those points by courier or mail. The Carriere D'ltalia, semiofficial organ of the Vatican, says that in the court of arbitration destined to ovoid future conflicts the pontiflcial authority will bo worthy ol' being represented, being a guarantee of the disinterested protection of the in terests of peoples.

U.S. COMMENT ON PEACE PLAN Pontiff's Proposal Respect fully Received in America; Denounced in Germany Newspaper comment on Pope Benedict's peace proposals to the billigerents follows: The "World" says: "Germany must speak first. In any case, the first re sponse of the Vatican proposals must conie from the German Gov ernment. and there must be con vincing proof that it has not tricked the Pope as it tried to trick Presi dent Wilson. "Experience has proved that Ger man pledges are worthless, that Ger man faith is a lie/ and that German honor is a thing of shreds and patch es. There is nobody in authority in Germany whom tho world can trust, nobody whose solemn assurance are worth the paper upon which they are written, nobody who can guarantee that Germany would respect the peace that Germany made. "The German Government in tljis war has proved itself a moral idiot, and negotiations with a moral idiot are necessary attended with grave misgivings. What tho Vatican has to suggest will necessarily receive the most respectful earnest attentfbn in every capitol of the allied nations, but all of them have a right to de mand that Germany must speak I llrst. "The world wants peace, yes. The nations do not want, will not have, a mere truce. That is the 'peace' Germany wants; it is exactly what civilization is determined Germany shall not have. When the hideous blight of Prusslanlsm is destroyed forever, the German people can have peace, not before. Any 'peace' pro posal that does not. contemplate unconditional surrender by Ger many contemplates a peace not worth thinking about."

Used Norwegian Ship , as Fruitless Decoy By Associated Press An Atlantic Port, Aug. 15. members of the crow of the Nor wegian steamship Benguela, captured June 15 by a German submarine and used for sixteen days as a* "decoy vessel" for British and allied ship ping, reached hero to-day on a Span ish vessel. According to the sailors, they were held prisoners on board their own ship for that time, their vessel, in charge of Germans, cruising about in waters usually frequented by mer chant ships, with the U-boat, partly submerged, hovering about to attack anything that might be tempted to come near the supposed Norwegian. The effort was fruitless, however, the men said, as during the entire six teen days nothing was sighted. At the end of tluit time the Benguela was looted of her sfores, the crow set adrift in their boats and the ves sel destroyed by homris. The men were picked up and landed at a Spanish port.

EXPECT U.S. WILL URGE A FAVORABLE REPLY [Continued from First l'agr.] citement. There is no doubt that the proposal will receive the most cour teous and serious attention from the United States, and there is every in dication that If the note corresponds with the press forecasts the United States will urge the allies to return a favorable answer. Even though the allies should, ac cept the Pope's proposal, immediate peace is not expected. For. in tho opinion of both State Department and Entente embassies, there is no chance whatever of the German government's assenting to the proposition that Germany should agree to evacuate France, Belgium and Serbia and to submit the question of Alsace-Lor raine to an abritrator. Mny llnlk on Alsnee Queotlon The attitude of the German gov ernment and of all parties In the Keichstag except the Radical Social ists, up to the present has been that there is no Alsace-Lorraine question. If Is therefore Inconceivable to the diplomats of Washington that the German government should now admit that the question of Alsace-Lorraine should be submitted to any person or tribunal for decision. Further more, it is believed that the recent successes of the Germans against Russia have again put the German government in a thoroughly annexa tionist state of mind, and that Ger many will be unwilling to lose her hold on Belgium, Serbia and the iron mines of French Lorraine. In view of the terrible sufferings of the German people, however, it is ex pected that if the allies should return a favorable answer to the Pope, the majority Socialists as well as the Radical Socialists will demand that their government accept the proposal. And because this offer emanates from the Pope it is expected that the Itoman Catholic Centrum party will join the Socialists in demanding its acceptance. Washington believes, therefore, that should the allies return a favorable answer and should the Junker-con trolled German gavernment return an unfarovable answer the longing for peace of the German people might result in a revolt against the govern ment. Austria United For Pence In the opinion of Washington dip lomatists this movement would be furthered by Austria-Hungary, which is expected to be unitedly in favor of the Pope's proposal. Indeed, it is believed that the Pope was inspired to make his move for peace in large part by request from Roman Catholic Vienna. It is well known in diplo matic circles that Austria-Hungary wants peace on any terms except ab solute dismemberment of her empire. And, should the German government reject the proposal, it is expected that relations between Vienna and Berlin will be greatly strained and that Vi enna will throw all her moral sup port on the side of the German So cialists. In view of all these facts, it is be lieved that the Pope has given the United States and the allies a great opening to widen the rift between the German people and the German gov ernment by returning a favorable an answer to h'.s note. Should the gov ernment also accept the Pope's terms, there would be every opportunity at the ensuing conference to lay the basis for a liberal peace. But as yet there is In Washington no feeling that peace is in sight. It Is pointed out that the Pope's report- DULL, SPLITTING, SICK HEADACHE Dr. James' Headache Powders relieve at once—lo cents a package.

How there can be any peace- I ful solution of the question of Alsace- Lorraine, short of submission of the question to an arbitrator, is beyond the ken of any official in Washington. The question of the Trentine is not so difficult. Austria offered to cede this territory to Italy in return for her continued neutrality, and it Is believed she would part with it gldly in return for peace. But Poland and Trieste again present problems of the greatest difficulty. Until the official text of the Pope's note reaches Washington and has been given the most careful consid eration by the President and his ad visers It will be impossible to fore cast with certainty the course of action which the United States will pursue. But from the reception which the press forecast of the note received ir. official circles. It seems most prob able that the United States govern ment urge the allies to return a careful but favorable answer. First, because if the German gov ernment also should return a favor able answer, as is not expected, the basis would be laid for a liberal Second, because if the Ger man government should return an unfavorable reply, as Is expected, a match would be touched to the smol dering feelings of the German peo ple, and the German Junkers would be much less secure in their seats than they are to-day.
