The provision for compensatins the occupied territories for the havoc wrought by the invaders is contained in simple sentence" Preparation for damage done.''
 Analysis of these terms shows them to be even more drastic than those being enforced against Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey.
 From military standpoint all of these powers have been stripped of even the means of defense.
 The object sought absolute pre- vention of reocururrence of hostili- t1es-is the same in each case. and. in general, the same character of con- sessions were required, though in Germany's case there was no neces- sity to provide for future campaigns against remaining enemy.
 Unable to Fight
 The surrender of 5000 cannon, g. 900 airplanes and other war material in proportion, military men say, means that for years to come the German states will be unable to think in terms of armed force against any of the powers associated against therl. Austria, Bulgaria and Turkey are in the same state as to military essen- tials, even if the complete political disintegration of Austria Hungary had not virtually disposed of danger from that source.
 The strength of the German navy has been cut away by the agreement to surrender 160 submarines, six bat tie cruisers and 10 battleships, 50

modern destroyers and many other craft. At this single stroke, Germany would lose virtually its whole modern fleet. The ships which would remain are chiefly of the pre-dreadnaught days and other obsolete types.
 Mutiny in Hun Fleet
 It was noted by officers here that Marshal Foch and his naval advisers had not lost sight of the mutiny with in the German fleet and the possibili- ty that this might interfere with the carrying out of the armistice naval terms. The supplementary condition authorizing occupation of Heligoland as an advanced base by the allies in case the specified ships are not sur rendered promptly, is designed to rem der the German fleet harmless in any case, and it's destruction certain in the end.
 It was also noted with satisfaction that ample precautions had been taken in the terms against the erec- tion of any interior of defenses be- hind the Rhine. The occupation of the Rhine fortresses and of 30 kilo- meter one on the right bank of the river, wherever a bridge head is to be protected, gives absolute domination of the 40-kilometer neutral zone es- tablished east of the Rhine to the al- lied forces, even without the garri- soning of any cities or other points within the zone. The way is to be kept open continually for advance into the heart of Germany by dozen routes across the great river.

SU|TST0 GET BACK B0OzEAU
 TAKEN UNDER LAW

Appeals by the state were filed yesterday in the supreme court in the two automobile confiscation suits brought in Pima county last summer. The titles of the cases are "The State of Arizona vs. one Paige automobile" and ''The State vs. one Dodge Auto mobile.' ..-
 These machines ha.! t-"1 taken while bein< em2.b.l n .r'ne;'. il toxicating liquors into the state There was no doubt of the use to which they were being put, and their confiscation was attempted under the Marsh law passed at the special ses- sion of the legislature last May.
 The defendants attacked the law on the ground that it was unconsti- tutional in that it was not legislation named by the governor in his call for the special session, though the title of the bill described it as an act to further the government in it's war work.
 As the bill was originally presented and passed the house it prohibited the introduction of liquor within certain zones surrounding army camps and posts, though these zones were so gen erously large that they practically em braced the whole state. The bill had at least the appearance of a war meas ure, and so seemed to come within the call of the governor.
 In the senate, however, that appear ance was removed and though the title remained, the measure itself was made merely to provide for the conf1scation of vehicles found any where in the state engaged in the transportation of intoxicating liquors.
 Judge Pattee of Pima county, be- fore whom the cases were brought, held the law to be invalid.
