Allied Advance Shows Clearly Con-

Debacle In Near Future.

Paris, Nov. S-(5;45 4. m.)-One
hundred days ago the Germans were
thirty-fve miles from Paris. Today
they are begging peace.
After many occasions, when hope
has been deferred and of bitter dis
appointment, France knows at last
that triumph has come and gives
free reign to its joy. The conviction
is universal that whether the Ger
man delegation signs articles OF cap
itulation or not, Germany is beaten.
The allied advance, particularly
the exploit OF the Americans in en-
tering Sedan, a name which thrills
every French heart, shows clearly
that continuation OF hostilitles by
Germany can lead only to military
debacle in the near future. THIS feel
ing is confirmed by news received
from reliable quarters that Ger
manys internal affairs are G1ifting
toward chaos.

MILLION POUNDS
Of BREAD DAHL Y

American Advance Zone, France,
Oct, lO.-(Correspondence OF The
Associated Press)-Two thousand
Soldier-bakers turning out a million
pounds Of bread day-this is the
vast and animated work one sees
here at the American army field
bakery, which supplies the staff of
life to the American army in the
entire area OF the advance zone.
1T is a bakery of tents. unlike the
ordinary bakery within brick walls
and with whizzing machinery. but
field bakery right out in the open
air and open fields, half military
encampment and half an industrial
city, and like all army camps capable
OF being picked up nd transported

the huge masses of dough, and hun

in the huge battery of ovens.
The daily bread train was about to
start for the front as we arrived
Although the camp is in the fields,
yet spurs of railway have been run
alongside, and each day this huge
train goes forward so that every
American division and every camp
along the whole front gets its sup
ply with unfaiing regularity. The
train was nearly half a mile long
with some 50 box cars loaded solid
from floor to roof 10000 pounds to
the car, or a million pounds OF
bread to the train.
Nearby another train was dis

pound sacks. OF the best standard
grades for nothing is too good for
the food OF the fighting man. OF late
however, said the escort, some of
this flour from far western points
has not been up TO the highest
standard. indicating that the rush of
an enormous shipment had led TO
falling off in quality.
The soldiers laboring among the
flour sacks have now begun to look
themselves like flour sacks, for they
have adopted strange uniform in
which the empty flour sacks take
the place of sleeveless shirts. The
sacks are slit at the side for the
arm houes. They are of rough white
bagging, much cooler the men say
than the army undershirt. Each sack
has flaming red and blue letters of
its brand, and so they work, re-
splendent with the whole range of
American flour brands in their flour
sack shirts.
