WANTS SCHELDT FREED
felgium. at Peace Conference. VIII
Ask Naturalization of Mouth
of River

Washington, Nov. 30.-One Of the
questions Belgium will bring up at the
peace conference will be that of the
naturalization of the mouth of the
River Scheldt.
The Scheldt, OF which Antwerp is
TIE principal port, empties into the
Scrth Sea on Dutch sol, and while
Holland and Belgium have had AMIGA
BE agreements rs to its use for COM
r3ercial purposes, Belgium has never
ceased 10 feel that the southern bank
Of the ri.er, at least, should be Bel
gan soil.
This question. however, will not b"
gene into. All Belgium will ask is
that the mouth of the Scheldt be de-
clared neutral water.
The Scheldt has been filled in by
silt since the beginning of the war and
: snow useless for shipping until it
las been dredged. But Belgium can
rot begin dredging operations without
OF the Dutch Government.

WILL HISTORY BE REPEATED?

The manner in which Louis XVI.
Was treated By the Jacobins in Paris
during the French revolution is one
of the most pathetic in the annals Of
the reign of terror. a Liberty cap
was placed upon his head, while the
monarch was subjected to all sorts of
indignities.
William Hohenzollern might pass
through similar thrilling experiences
were he to fall into the hands OF
many in Germany at present. He
with the members Of his family arc
suffering untold apprehension in Hol-
land. as the allies are virtually de
m;ndinu that he be delivered up
while his own people are as bitter
against him as are the nations alice
against him.
From inhabitants Of the picturesque
Rhineland we are learning some IN
teresting "inside" stories of wha
happened during the German revolu
ton and of what is going on in tn,

PERSHiNG'S PLAN
Whslc Course Of plan and Strategy
Changed After an Interview
With Foch and Haig.

Washington, Nov. 3O.-Thera is
ample warrant from high official:
here for The statement that the whole
course, plan and strategy Of the war
on the western front were changed
IS the result Of an interview between
Generals Pershing, Foch and Hal:
soma few days before the 10Th of
June OF the present year.
The plan CT Persh:ng. as related a.
the interview here involved the
withdrawal of the American troops
which had been trained in the British
ranks. and also a withdrawal from
French brieaGing arrangements.
General pershine's reasons for these
withdrawals ware explained here last
night BY army officers who would
lie in a position to know the facts.
The withdrawals were made over the
protest of British generals. whose
troops rad been inactive for many
months, who wc.ld lau?ch no cffon-
s;vcs ars who had counted en- the in
.erinite sresence of large bodies of
American troops with the British
army.
The time came in juno when the
American forces aggregated mere
than million for the United States
troops "to fight as nation This
determination was reached some days
before June % of this year, when
General Pershing withdrew five whole
divisions from TIE British sectors.
From that time the progress of with
drawals went on and with a purpose
which Ger aral Pc1shing and his staff
mapped out. General Pershing's pur-
poses were manifold:
1. That the gate INTO Germany was
via Sedan.
.. That the American forces could
make this success.
3. That the American troops were
entitled to fight q front of their
own-that is, rs the sole troops ii
combat sectors.
i. That the period of Inactivity
since the German drive in March was
TO the advantage of the Germans.
and that there should be an offensive
in great force.
). That the Americans had Incwl
'd"e thai the Germans intended =
make the drive over the Marine abont

lot burst until about the middle Of
July.

Most readers of the Gazette Will
gather in their respective places OF
worship tomorrow to express their
thanksgiving to the bounteouS Crea-
tor for the blessings which have at
tended them during the closing week.
All have at times their p!qucs wi.h
dispositions to show eSentmeat, and
too often are our minds wandering
like the fools eyes over the earth IN
stead of entering into the spirit which
should animate us al ali times, more
especially on the first day Of the
week and while in the sanctuary.
The month Of November. 1918, Will
ever be memorable for reasons we'll
known and not requiring recapitula-
ton at this time. The Sun of Right
eousness is again shedding his healing
beams over the world, now about to
recuperate from the effects OF the
dark cloud which hung so .ong over
aus. Our fierce" enemies are covering
and harmless, while the right-think-
in gpeople Of the planet arc breathing
easier, realizing that ;hefe is noth'n"
to fear from those who 70" 4 time
rode rough shod over civilization. We
should be
Living tnankfulness each day,
That's the way to crown the strife;
Always something good to say
O. the mingled fate Of life.
Grateful for the sunny hours
Happy ior the toll that wins,
And amid the storm and showers
Trying to. redeem our sins.
