RUSSIA STATES HER TERMS TO AMERICA.
CLAIMS /TO HAVE SUFFERED MORE THAN OTHER ALLIES.
WILSON DOES NOT CONTEMPLATE ANOTHER NOTE.
WASHINGTON, January 7
It is understood that the Russian peace terms embraced in the Allied reply to Mr. Wilson include the possession of Constantinople, the s evacuation of occupied territory, and indemnification either in land or money for property and human losses. The terms are based on the claim that Russia refused a separate peace wjth Germany, and has suffered more heavily than the other Allies. The State Department has authorised the statement that Mr. Wilson does not contemplate sending another Peace Note. It is understood that the reason for the announcement was apprehension by Mr. Wilson that reports that another Note was being prepared would have an effect on the Allies' reply, which is expected shortly. The Senate has passed a resolution approving of Mr. Wilson's request that the combatants should state their peace- terms, without endorsing the terms of the Note iteelf.
