ENGLISH PROPHECY
Nashville Tennessean.
I It. G. Wells, the English wrlt-:r
nnc pub icist, has been traveling ex
tensmly n the allied and neutral
countr'es. Of course, he has been
taking notes. It is his expressed
opinion that the Germans will make
a public official bid for peace before
the year is out probab'y in Novem
ber and that the al.ies will get the
peace they want by next June.
The factors in h's calculations are
'nteresting, whether we agree with
them or not. Ir substance he says
the central powers are bung beaten

of how long it will requ:re before
Germany will accept the mintmum
terms the allies will concede; the
calculation of when they will pro-
I of Austria in the interests of Italy,
Rouman;a, Poland and Jugoslava and
the cession of Germany's lost colo

the satisfaction insisted upon. There
are collateral questions, such as the
security of Britain at sea, and com
pensation for sunken shipping and

are achieved, Germany will cling to
the hope of temporary success or
some accident that will bring about
normal intervention to save her from
he full measure of the consequences
he challenged in August, 1914.
It is believed that the German de
fenses on the great main fronts, east
-"id west, are crumbl;ng and nearing
the approach of rupture, which shouid
not be later than November and
that Germany will make the first of
fer before the rupture, while she can

think there may be a sort of Dutch
auction of trie uerman proposals as
1917 opens. But I do not think that un
til Sofia has been calied off, until the
Russians are actually in Constanti
nople, the French and English in Lor
raine, the Italians over the Julian
Alps and th Easlern allies near
Vienna, Germany will come down to
the hard rock of the terms we must
have."
We have become somewhat used
to the war, and are not now so much
exercised over its horrible details, but
all are yet interested m its conclu

Hope that the Central highway will
be a sand-clay road from the moun
tains to the coat before another
yen? has passed is justifd by the in
terest taken in roads in this section
durlrg the past few months. An
iminer.je am our t of work is being
dc :e, road Imr rc ement will start in
Icard tc .--.-.ship, Burke county, and
bonds will be viled on in Lovelady
township Saturday.
Greatest enthusiasm is reported in
Lovelady township, where Saturday
a largely attended meeting was held
n the interest of a bond issue of
$50,000 for good roads. Ieard town
ship on the east already has taken
the initiative and Silver Lake town
ship, which adjoins McDowell coun
ty, is getting active. These two
townships are all that stand in the
way of a good highway from the
Catawba line west.
In Catawba township. Catawba
county, the roads are not improved,
but progress'vec itizens there are in
terested. The question will not be
taken up until after the general elec
tion in November, but with nolitics
out of the way the advocates of roads
will have the right of way.
Iredell county is making the road
from the river at Catawba sand-ay
and in a few weeks this will be a good
highway. Just now this b 't of -road
"s pretty rough, but once all the grad
ing is done and the top soil placed, a
few rains occur and the road dragged
once or twice, it will be as good as any
in this section.
When a few townships take favor
able action, as they undoubtedly will
in a few months, the whole of the Cen
tral highway will be a fine p'ece of
road.
Eventually the road from Hickory
Blowing Rock, Linville Falls and
Black Mounta:n, thanks to the pro
gressive citizens of Loveb.dy town
ship, Caldwell county, will be an im
portant link in thfc chain of good
highways in this sect'on and with the
3'owing Rock turnpike kept in good
repa'r, tourists will find that route
a most interesting one.
There is.t no doubt that this sec
tion of North Carolina, owing to its
splendid climate and colorful moun
tains, will be a popular resort for
tourists from all over the country.
