Nearer the ArgOnne forest the
Americans have the Beilejoyeuse

EX-PRESIDENTS
JOINTLY ASK FOR
REPUB CONGRESS

New York. Oct. Theodore
Roosevelt and William H Taft is
sued here today a joint appeal for
election Of a Republican majority
in congress. The statement was
said TO be the first ever composed
and signed by two former presi-
dents OF the United States.
Seated at a table in the Union
League club, they prepared the
statement and discussed old times
at The capital while it was being
typed. The appeal follows:
We approach this subject as
Americans and only as Americans.
When this war broke out we would
have welcomed action by the presi-
dent which would have eliminated
all questions Of party politics. II
would have enabled us all to stand
behind him 10 the end. without re
gard 10 anything except national
considerations Instead Of this par
tisan lines have been strictly drawn
from the first and now the president
announces that only Democrats can
be entrusted with future power and
only those Democrats who do his
will Because Of the reflection on
other patriotic Americans, We ap-
peal for fair play.

Northwest of Rethel the Germans

In the northern sectors OF the

third of the day in and near Boston.
declared the Republicans were
willing in hopes of party advantage
to make Germany believe President
Wilson does not speak for America
in his IA principles and terms OF
peace.
The wisdom OF Webster said
the secretary, calls trumpet
tongued to the men OF the bay state
today: Quit playing politics long
enough to present a united front to
the enemy. Give to the president
of the United States today the same
support you gave to Washington,
Lincoln and Mckinley when they
were commanders-in-c chief Of the
army and navy in days OF war
That call will be heard and
needed above the roar OF the parti-
sans who clamor, Tell Germany
that Woodrow Wilson's IA demands
do not represent America. Tell the
allies counsel in America is divided
and confused. Tell the world that
at this hour when the fate Of ma
tions demands American solidarity
the love Of Office is paramount TO
the love of principles for which
brave Americans have given their
lives.
Urging the return OF Democrat
ic congress, the secretary Of the
navy said: Outside OF those meas
ures upon which public opinion was
so centered that opposition meant
political death, the vocal Republi-
can leadership Of the country has
been. as the president says anti
administration.
Secretary Daniels spoke opIimis-
tically of the war situation and re
counted with pride the part the
navy had played in making victory
possible. He said he did not know
whether the German feet would
come out and try conclusions with
the allied fleet before the war ends,
but he did know every man in the
navy hopes for that day with con
fidence that knows no doubt as TO
the result OF such a conflict.
IF it comes" he added. "it will
be another battle OF Armageddon
and We will be hghting truly for
the Lord"

Washington, Oct. 31-Secre-
tary Lansing today notified the
British government that the
United States will bring its re-
quest fer an armistice to the
attention of the governments
at war with Turkey.

plea for an armistice and peace

Germany and Austria was de-
IiVered Oct IA.
Minister Ekengren of Sweden de-
liyered to Secretary Lansing today
the note of Count Andrassy. new
Austro- Hungarian foreign minister
asking the secretary to intervene
with President Wilson for favor
able action on the Austrian request
for American and allied armistice
terms
The note was in Swedish text. A
translation shows no material diff
ference from the version already
published in press dispatches.
Expect Wilson's Decision.
Announcement of the decision OF
President wilson on the renewed
plea of Hungary for an i'm
mediate armistice and peace nego-
tiations was expected today to be
made soon. In the opinion of many
the answer of the president will be
a notification to the government OF
the dual monarchy that he has for
warded to the allied governments
it's plea. and that like Germany il
must look to the supreme war coun-
Gil now in session in Paris for the
terms upon which an armistice car
be arranged and the war brought tC
an end.
The president spent most of yes
terday at work on the Austrian re-
ply and last night it was believed
he had practically completed the
task 1t was generally thought
that the president in addition tC
notifying the Austrian government
that its communication had been
referred TO the allied governments
would take up the steps that Aus
tria and Hungary have taken in the
liberation of subject peoples.

Copenhagen, Oct. 31.-Request
was made by the Socialist members
of the lower house OF the German
reichstag on Tuesday that the min
istry obtain the emperor's consent
to a change in the article OF the
constitution which gives him the
right to make war and peace. One
Of the secretaries announced in the
house on Wednesday that he had
been authorized to declare that the
emperor in no wise opposed the
change.
A Copenhagen dispatch announc-
ed Oct II that Germany's federal
council had accepted a proposed
amendment to the constitution
making it imperative that the con-
sent of the federal council and the
reichstag be given before a decla-
ration OF war to be made in the
empires name, except in cases of
invasion or attacks on the coast.
Another amendment to the consti-
tuition placed the power of making
OF treaties of peace and treaties
with foreign states on the federal
council and the reichstag.
Prince Maximilian, the imperial
chancellor, announced in the reich
stag on Oct % that bill had been
prepared making the reichstag re-
sponsible for war and peace, the
measure to become effective when
the project for a league of nations
should become operative 1t is
probable the foregoing dispatch re-
fers to some new development in
the effort being made to deprive the
emperor of powers which he has
held hitherto.
