WASHINGTON. Oct 11-Official
Washington is daily becoming more
confident of assistance in the winning
OF the war from internal unrest in the
German empire. Members of the
presidents cabinet and other high Of
ficials who are kept informed of the
secret communications which reach
the American capital through diplo-
matte and secret service channels say
that new movement is being felt
within the central powers which is
steadily gaining in strength.
The new element in the war situ-
alton is known as the southwestern
movement. It springs from the peo-
pie of Bavaria, Hungary and the 9th
er lesser provinces and minor king
doms in the southwestern part of the
Pan-German domain. Considerable
reliance is being placed upon it to-
gather sufficient strength to embar
rass the Prussian military party.
A Geneva dispatch received yester-
day said that a conference regarding
new peace terms had been called in
Servia and would be attended by the
monarchs and cabinets of Germany,
Austria. Bulgaria and Turkey.
Today's dispatches report heavy
( fighting at two points on the French
front with slight advantage to the al
lies and quiet on the English, Russian
and Italian fronts. Premier Kerensky
again pledged support to the allies
today.

The quaint spelling that helped TO
make "Josh Billings" famous was nat
ural to him. Josh" was not an edu-
Gated man in the academic sense. and
WAS a DOOR speller to the last. When
he started out in the humorous line no
observed that the way in which he put
together his words-a style that no
followed simply because he knew no
other-tickled the people and helped to
sell his writings, and like the wise'
sensible man that he was. despite his
literary deficiencies, he stuck to it to
the end. Of course, had there not
been the keenest, wit, humor and sat
ire behind the "outlandish" spelling,
he would have twisted the kings Eng
