Tho Now York Times correspondent at Washington says that unstinted credit is given President Wilson for having played a most skilful diplomatic hand in dealing with the Central Powers, thus bringing about a situation which meant the ending of the war upon terms dictated by (he Allies. Even those who adversely criticised President Milson’s Note-writing to Germany and Austria have conceded his success-, .fill diplomatic manoeuvre, which docs not mean that credit is accorded President Wilson alone, because it is thoroughly understood that he has been in close touch with the Allies in every move he has made. London, Nov. 4. The Times, in an editorial, says: “Germany manifestly hopes to wheedle the Allies out of at least some of the fruits of their victory.
