POLISH AUTONOMY
 |S RECOGNIZED BY
 THIS GOVERNMENT
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-The Polish army, under the supreme political au thority of the Polish national commit tee, was recognized today by the Unit ed States government as autonomous and belligerent Secretary Lansing so announced in a letter sent today to Roman Dmowski, president of the Po- fish national committee, who is now in Washington.
 Secretary Lansing said the American government feels deep sympathy for the Polish people and views with grati- fication progress of the Polish cause. He also said it had not been unmind- full of the zeal and tenacity with which the Polish national committee, which has headquarters at Paris. has prose- cuted the task of marshalling it's fel- low countrymen in a supreme military effort to free Poland from it's present oppressors.
 Follows Lead of Allies
 The action of the American govern ment is similar to that taken recently by France, Great Britain and Italy. A Polish army now is fighting on the western front with the allied armies, being under the command of General Josef Haller. A large part of this Po- fish force Was recruited in the United

 Secretary Lansing's letter to Mr. Dmowski follows:
 ''I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your letters of October IS and Octo- Der 20, requesting the government of the United States to associate itself with the governments of France and Great Britain. by recognizing the Po fish army, under the supreme political authority of the Polish national com mittee as autonomous allies and CO., belligerent
 Acknowledges Independence
 Tn reply l beg to inform you that the government of the United States has not been unmndful of the zeal and tenacity with which the Polish na- tional committee has prosecuted the task of marshalling it's fellow country men in a supreme military effort to free Poland from it's present op- presors.
 This governments position with respect to the Polish cause and the Polish people could hardly be more clearly defined. than was outlined by the president in his address before the ! congress of January s, 1918. Therefore, | feeling as it does a deep sympathy | for the Polish people, and viewing with l qualification the progress of the Po- ! fish cause. this government experi- | ences 6 feeling of genuine satisfaction | in being able to comply with your re- | quest by recognizing the Polish army under the supreme political authority i of the Polish national committee, as autonomous and belligerent."

WASHINGTON Nov. 4.-Terms on which Ger many may obtain immediate armstce and end the war were completed and signed today in Paris Secretary Lansing announced the fact tonight in brief state ment adding only that complete diplomatic harmony had been achieved by allied and American conferees at Versailles
 It may be stated authoritatively that the terms, not vet given for publication follow closely those under which Austra-Hungary surrendered today and passed out of the war leaving Germany to stand alone against the world
 Ominous Twenty four Hours
 Presumption in official circles here tonight was that the spulations would be in the hands of the Ger man government in less than 24 hours. If they accepted reply settling the issue of peace further fighting may also be received within that time. The uncertainty caused President Wilson to cancel his proposed trip to New Jersey to vote in the congress sona elections.
 Although the complete text of the historic Yer sailles document probably is only now the cables for Washington, it's substance reported fully and approved by the president before the final draft was prepared.
 Armistice Terms Unanimous
 Secretary Lansing made this statement:
 According to an official report received this evening" the terms of the armstice to be offered to Germany have just been agreed to unanimously, and signed by the representatives of all allies and the United States in Paris. The report further states that diplomatic unity has been completely achieved under conditions of utmost harmony

CONSUL IN IA HAPPY NEW CUSTODY Of YEAR PROMISE
 BOLSHEY|K| OF PRESIDENT
Arrest of Consul Tredwell May Start Something in the Orient: Government Acting.

Washington, Dec. 26.-Urgent messages sent through many chan- nels when the reports reached Wash ington that Roger c. Tledwell, American consul, had been arrested
 by the bolsheviki sH ssH TashkeNt. in
 Russian Turke5tan, brought word to- day that the consul, while in custody
 was well treated, being confined to
 his room instead of in a prison. Eff
 forts to obtain his release are @oine
 forward
 Just what caused the consuls ar
 rest is not known, but it may be that
 the hostile bolshcviki authorities
 took him in charge for no other
 reason than the fact that he was an American consular officer.
 Upon learning of the arrest the state department got into touch with lrkutsi., Teheran, Paking, Calcutta and other points in an endeavor to learn the facts and have MT Tred- well released. Assistant Secretary e State Philliprs said today the In- dian government had been very help ful in the matter
 The last regular post held by 1 Tredwell Gs consul was at Petrograd. Since his withdrawal from Petro- i grad he has t4sn assigned with a rowing commission to various points in and near Russia and has made ex- , haustive reports to this government cf conditions as he found them.

 The foregoing delegations comprise those of virtually all of the European countries which have taken part in the war except Rumania and the four enc my countries, whose delegates have not yet been announced. China will be represented by one prson, probably the Ambassador to France. Siam and Cuba, and number of South and Central American republics have not been heard from.
 On the whole, the lists given above, through unofficial and subject 70 change, indicate that the delegations have been virtually formed and that they soon will be able to take up the work of the congress.
 Paris, Dec. 25.~tMc"o than three weeks probably will eiapse before the general peace conference assem- bles.

HOWTo Grow g!
N BETS 11O

The red garden beet may be grown in
any good soil, but rich sandy loan will
give the best results The seed may be
sown in spring as soon as the ground is
in condition TO work. They may be
planted two weeks before danger of frost
is past. If for horse cultivation, the
rows should be from 21a to feet apart
or wide enough for the horse to walk
between the rows. If for hand cultiva-
tion, the rows need not be more than II
TO IS inches apart. The usual custom
is to SOW the seed somewhat closer to-
gether than the beet5 are desired, and
after the beets are up, to thin them from
time to time, using the ones removed fol
greens until the beets finally are som,
4 to inches apart in the rows.
1t should be remembered that what i:
commonly termed beet seed is really 6
seed ball, containing several individual
seeds. and for this reason each one O
these balls may bring from to 4 plants
All of these plants except one should b
removed during the thinning process
Two ounces of the seed are sufficient t
plant a l00-foot row.
/ Beets should be planted in succession
at intervals of about two weeks durin
the summer so as to have a supply O
! young tender beets at all times Tn
beets should be used before they excee
a diameter OF ? inches, as the youn
beetS Of moderate size are of much bet
