since the route to that bastion, the southern pivot of the old real Hin denburg line, is barred by three great forests.
 Four great key-points in the real Hindenburg line-Cambrai, St. Quen- tin, La Fere and Laon-are gravely menaced by the last 24 hours devel- opments.
 With the French Army in France, Aug. S0-The Third French Army, Noyon, advanced along the road lead ing to Guiscard yesterday and occu- pied Happlincourt and the field or maneuvers opposite.
 The operations of the last two days have put the Germans into another pocket between the Canal du Nord and the River Aisne. They will have to evacuate 1t promptly or run big risk of having their positions there turned from the north by the French along the valley of the Somme. Since the fall of Noyon, which was the apex of this salient, until the morning, Mont St. Simeon, mile and a quarter to the east, is it's advance defence. This height dominates the valley of the Aisne eastward and the valley of the River Meve and the Canal du Notd to the north. These valleys were lines in the salient last night.
 The taking of Quesnoy Wood this
 morning has frightened the pocket | from the western side, bringing the
 French within smelling distance of
 the main road leading out of it in | the direction of Ham. The road from | Noyon to Chauny, which skirts the salient on the south, has been under
 the fire of Gen. Mangin's artillery for several days.
 Between the roads to Ham and
 Chauny a succession of heights ex-
 tend from Mont St. Simeon to Chauny

 The French troops having gained foothold in the valley of tn, Somme northeast of Nesle may na turally be expected to advance east ward on Ham, which will render tn stronghold of St. Simeon and thu ridge leading east useless to the en emy while enormously increasing tn difficulty of getting the rearguart
 out of the salient.
 The rapidly succeeding militar, events not only confirm that the Ger mans have lost all control of thei operations in the regions of tn, Somme, Avre and Disc rivers, bu
 they indicate that the enemy's ow1 f retreat is getting out of hand. The Somme line having been ren l dered difficult for the Germans b the rapidity of the Entent Allied pur 3 suit there is now a question. with tn French troops ready to cross tn

SUFFRAGE IS NOT
 NECESSARY NOW

While a group of young women were being decorated at the State Capitol, in honor of the services they have rendered the state and the nation as members of the Land Army, they were told by Gov. Holcomb that Tt is a healthful thing for the women to take hold of work to increase the food sup ply so that the soldiers may be ade- quately fed and our population ade- quately fed too,' and that nothing can be accomplished without women but it is not necessary that they should have suffrage to accomplish it."

RECONSTRUCT
COMMISSION is
BEING STUDIED
BY PRESIDENT

washington, Nov. 14.-President
Wilson has under consideration the
appointment Of reconstruction
commission to develop a comprehen-
Biye program for the nations con-
version from a. war to a peace basis
rhe commission would be advisory
rather than executive, in functions
and the plans developed and co-or-
dinated by it would be carried out
by existing government departments
and agencies.
r. Committee Small.
As now considered the commission
would be representative Of CONNER
ciai, industrial. labor, agricultural
and social interests; its membership
would be small, and 1t could deal
with all phases of the great prob
lem of easing the country from war
TO peace.
Wilson Opposed to Congress on This.
The president is understood to be
distinctly opposed to the suggested
plan of having a congressional com =
nittee prepare a. reconstruction pro-
gram. He is said to prefer men who
can give their entire time to the
work. and who have made special
studies Of economic and social prob
lens.
s1a. Switching 60 Peace BasIs.
How to shut Off further war pro-
duction without closing plants,
throwing men out OF work. and caus-
ing financial strain, Is the most I'M
mediate reconstruction plan. Hun
dreds of kilograms of inquiry reach
ing government departments TO-DAY
disclosed anxiety Of business men
over this question, and offered
multitude of suggestions for dealing
with It. AS a clearing house for SUCH
suggestions the reconstruction COM
mission would function.
Diver&ina Raw Materials to Peace
Government authorities having
charge OF the placing Of war con"
tracts are considering a plan for d.
vertine raw materials from war in
dnstries as fast as these curtall their
activities, to other industries where
tfey can be used at once for recon
s+ruction needs. War orders will not
be cancelled in a, wholesale way un-
til such plan is developed, 1t ls
believed.
80 Uniform Policies Desirable.
In this connection the chamber OF
commerce Of the United States to-
da.y made public a letter to President
Wilson citing evidence of anxiety
among business men over the gov
ernment's future course, suggestlnB
development of uniform policies for
a1T Departments, and some measures
for preventing a sudden drop IN
price Of raw materials.
