Ambassadors With Germany, England, France and Russia, Lead Him to This Conclusion—Hopes Later American Government Can Move Without Embarrassment Washington, D. C. —President Wil son sees little prospect ot peace in I'luropo reflected in the unofficial ex changes American ambassadors have been conducting with Germany, Groat Britain, France and Russia. This was learned today at the White House after a careful study of Am bassador Gerard's message giving his recollection of an Informal conversa tion with the Imperial German chan cellor. More Definite Overtures. Until something more tangible and more definite In the way ot overtures comes from the belligerents, the Presi dent feels his hands virtually aro tied. To undertake to elicit terms from Great Britain, Franco and Russia, as Germany suggested, would place the President, he belteveH In a delicate po sition, In view of what Sir Edward Grey's position that the war had been forced on Great Britain and that It would he necessary to crush German militarism beforu the allies could feci safe against new attacks. No Other Comment. Sir Edward is quoted as saying he could make no other comment until a definite statement es terms had been received from Germany and Austria. Substantially the same position was taken by Franco and Russia and com municated through the American em bassy as well as their ambugsudore there. Almost Identical. On comparing the expressions from the allied powers with that es the Ger man chancellor, the President found TODAY’S WAR CONDENSED An official statement Issued at Berlin says (ho battle between the Oise and the Meuso Rivers continue with sure Indications that the allies are falling back. It Is declared the French attempt to cut through the German right wing failed and a sortie from Verdun on the right bank of the Meuso was repulsed. The German army is said to be advancing slowly but surely. It was declared officially In Paris at 3 o’clock this afternoon that the allies had progressed somewhat. The western wing whs declared to have repulsed a vigorous German offensive. Tn proroguing parliament today King George said he was compelled to go to war for the protection of the public law of Europe and the vital Interests of the empire and that Great Rrltatn would not lay down her arms until that purpose had been fully achieved. Austrian forces report that ttie Servians have evacuated Scntllo, tin town which they seized when they begin their Invasion of Hung at , Servian reports are to the effect that, their successes continue. The Germans successful In driving the Russian Invaders from i Prussia are reported pushing their way Into Russian Poland. The Austrian armies following their dlsartrous clash with 1 1 1 - 1 slans In Galicia are believed to be attempting to reform at Criu-ow.

As to the suggestion that the United States be asked to set up a committee of In quiry he salt!

NATIONAL CENSUS BUREAU REPORT ON OA. FARMING Atlanta.—'That Georgia la noma farming state la shown In rm cut fig ure* from the national census bureau, as pointed out bv James D. Price, com missioner of agriculture, Mr. Prlco studies the figures and facts of farm In* just ns a baseball fan watches the '•dope" on batting averages, and he pointed out the (ieorgla statistics s» being especially Interesting. they took almost an identical position, each charging the other with respon sibility for the war and neither giving suggestions of any basis for peace. The President, it is understood feels that In view of the neutral position of the American government, it would be unwise to press either side to make overtures to the other. He hopes however, th.it as the war progresses, one side or the other will make known Its terms in some definite form so that the American government can forward the peace movement without embar rassment. No Possibility Y«t. New York. As long as they talk ot crushing and dismembering Germajiy there Is absolutely no possibility of pence," said Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador here today. “I have no idea that Germany could be crushed or dismembered. “No lusting peace would he possi ble if German territory was given up. That applies to the colonies of Ger many as well as the German empire Itself. It Is perfectly clear that If uny territory was taken, Germany would again arm to the teeth.” Count von Bernstorff said undoubt edly the German emperor had been in formed of the talk between Ambassa dor Gerard and tho Imperial German chancellor and that the answer given had been first submitted to the em peror. He added that it should he emphatically understood that, from a military viewpoint Germany was not seeking peace at this time any more than before. "The census shows.” he said, "that In Georgia 1,1(0,126 parsons work for a living and that 734,366 of these arc engaged In farming. The farm oper ators, or proprietors, number 276,247, of which 270,476 are men |ind 14.771 ar« women. There are 4311,091 farm la borers. "Italry forming segms to ho looking up.
