AMERICANS AND FRENCH SHAKE
 GERMAN PIVOT
onerations West of Mouse strike VT at the Vitals of the Enemy American Advance Menaces German Communications.

With the French Army in France, 0.SO D. m., Nov. 5.-The Franco American operations west of the Mouse since November l have shaken the pivot upon which the entire Ger man retreat turns. The Germans are o+;l making a stout resistance with mt modifying the salient feature of inc situation, which is that their ar mics west of the Mouse are practi- callv cut off from direct communica- ton with Metz,
 The main reliance of the Germans now is on the line of the Mouse, which tbey appear determined to defend, while west of the river the principal resistance is along the Ardennes canal. French troops have reached this obstacle from Rilly-aux- Disc, at the bend of the Aisne, to the river bar. Here they have encountered sustained artillery. machine gun and musketry fire.
 The Germans are still holding along the AiSne between Rethel and Cha teau Porcien. while further west in- dcations of retreat were noticed last evening. The French in pursuit, maintained contact with the enemy's rear guards and this morning reached Herpy and the region east of Recouv- rance and Bannagne, as we'll as Height 9S southwest of Montigny le Court.
 East of the Disc river French troop on the heels of the retreating army have reached Audigny and La Herie la Neville

1 PER CENT LIBERTY
 LOAN CONVERSION
Fact That Valuable Privilege Expires on November 9.

Secretary McAdoo has issued the following announcements: "The privi- lege of converting 1 per cent bonds of the First Liberty Loan converted and per cent bonds of the Second Lib erty Loan into 1-4 per cent bonds expires on November 9, 1918, and cannot under existing law be extend ed. The Treasury has done all in its power to call the attention of the bond holders to the existence of this valu- able privilege and the date of it's eX- piration. It is safe to assume that upon the expiration of the conversion privilege that fact will reflect itself unfavorably in the market price of unconverted per cent bonds which have heretofore been maintained sub stantially on parity with the con verted 1 IA bonds by the existence of the privilege of conversion. The Treasury now asks the newspapers of the United States, bankers. brokers and others to do what they can to bring these facts before the attention of the bondholders."

AMERICA PLANS TO FEED FORMER
 ENEMY PEOPLES
War Council at Versailles An nOunces Wish to Join in Relief WOrk-Is a Serious Food Shortage.

Washington, Nov. 5.-America and the allies are planning to cooperate in making available as far as possible food and other supplies necessary for the lives of the demoralzed civilian populations in once-enemy countries.
 This became known tonight through the publication of a message from Colonel E. M House at Paris to President Wilson saying the supreme war council at Versailles had adopted a resolution announcing it's desire to cooperate with Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey in furnishing the necessities of life for the suffering people of these nations.
 This announcement is expected to have far-reaching effect in Germany, where. from all accounts. the food situation is only little less serious than it is in the countries until re- gently allied with Germany in the war. Conditions are represented as particularly serious in Austria Hun gary, where food riots have been ire quent and where there had been in- tense suffering, not alone in the want of food, but clothing and other ne- cessities

ISSUE OF PEACE
 OR WAR IS PUT
 UP TO GERMANY
If She is Disposed to Make Peace She Can Talk to Gen eral FOch-Must Pay For All Damages.

Washington, Nov. 5--Marshal Foch has the terms of armistice for Ger many and awaits application for them by the German military command in the field.
 The government at Berlin is so in- formed in note which Secretary Lan sing handed to Minister Sulzer of Switzerland, tonight, announcing that the allies have declared their willing ness to make peace on the principles enunciated by President Wilson. The note now is on the cables. In "A hours it should be in the hands of the Germans; in AS hours the world may know whether an immediate end of the war is at hand.
 Publication of details of the armis- tice terms still is withheld They may not be made known until the Ger mans have accepted or rejected them, as the course followed by the allies in dealing with Bulgaria, Turkey and Austria. Only the details are in doubt. however. and no one questions that acceptance means abject sur render.
 The statement has been authorized that the drastic conditions under which Austria passed out of the war have been followed closely and in answer to queries for further infor- nation officials said tonight the statement of Premier Clemenceau cabled from Paris, by the Associated Press, told the story:
 "The terms" said M Clemenceau 'are what President Wilson himself recommended to us for the security of our troops, the maintenance of oul superiority and the disarmament of the enemy insofar as that is necessary l to prevent resumption of hostili- ties"
 Secretary Lansing's note gives the 1 first hint of what has been going or in the momentous conferences al Paris between Colonel House and the allied premiers. u quotes men orandum of observations" ty the al lied governments on the president correspondence with the GerTan au thorities disclosing the approval ot the presidents peace program witt reservation of freedom of action il the peace conference on tho mooter question of freedom of the seas anc a specific statement that by restora tion is meant that Germany mus make compensation for all damage done by civilian populations and then property "by land, by sea, end iron the air"

0. K. HAYNIE WRITES FROM
 SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE
A. E. F., October II, 1918.

Mother, dear:
 We have just received fresh in- structions in letter censoring which forbid us telling where we are, or what activities are going on around us, so l suppose I'll have to keep mum" along those lines.
 l don't think, however, there is any objection to telling you that we are In trenches and my present home is in a very small dark dugout with my captain and another lieutenant as my room-mates. Little did we ever real ize before, the comforts of home life back in the states. We have known nothing but mud and slush since we came forward, and we have seen very, very little of the Sunny France you have heard spoken of so much.
 The life here is highly exciting and very little dangerous.
 The weather hasn't turned so very cold yet but we are looking for it soon. sure dread it's beginning. We can get along fairly we'll though, as and smoke. Mother you cant imag- inc the comfort and consolation a sol dier gets out of smoking. You may criticise me for smoking if you want l to, but when one is wet and cold, drenched to the skin and no fire, a good smoke is a great helper, and cheers one up wonderfully. I'm hay ing and have already had some won derful experiences, to say nothing of the hardshipS that we have gone l through, but l suppose l must wait until l get back home before you can hear them. can at least tell you | this much and that is, every soldier 1 in France knows just what war means They all know just what it is to suf- fer hardships and privations for a cause they know is worthy of their efforts. Many night I've walked beside the column of men on the long night marches we have made. and | tried to cheer them and raise their spirits, when 1 knew that they were so tired and weary they could hardly move one foot in front of the other. They are all brave loyal men, but of course there are few men who are 1 naturally weak and they would have to fall out beside the road, but it was not until they had used their utmost efforts to keep up did they fall eX- hausted by the way. Mother, it is pitiful at times but the good part about it is that after all, it is only making real men out of them and they will be grateful for it later on No one but real man can stand up under what we are going through AS rule the company is always happy and jolly. It only takes few hours rest after d long hike for the men to be ready and willing to hit the trail again.
 We have a man in our company who was formerly cartoonist, and he has offered to draw me a few. Will send them to you. Perhaps they would be all right to put in the daily paper
 Will close for this time
 Love to the family, from
 OTIS. : P. S.-Am enjoying the best of health and am happy. Give my best regards to all. Hope every one of you | o,a n
