For Ordnance
Huge Addition Made to the
Original Estimates of
$2,667, 600, 900

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-Huge in
crcases in the artillery programme
have been decided on by the ordnance
department, which to-day asked the
House Appropriations Committee to
add $1,10O,000,00O to its estimates of
$2,667, 100000 to carry out it's part Of
the enlarged army programme, making
q total of $3,767, 100000.
The War Department has decided to
provide moro big guns for each of the
eighty divisions that America expects
TO have in France next year.
While the increase obviously points
to greater use of artillery in blasting
the Allies way into Germany, commit
tee members declined to say specifically
what explanation had been given by
the ordnance officers.
With to-day's estimate the army has
asked for more than $S,0OO,00O, 1000, the
amount to be raised b. the new war
revenue bill, for placing the army on a
basis of 100000 men. This sum is in
addition to $4,000, 100000 already pro-
vided in the regular army appropria-
tion bill and to S5,0000O0,OO0 in the
fortifcations bill, making altogether
more than $25, 100000.

BERNE, Oct. s.--The German Empe-

Rufach, Alsace, late in September,
said:
Neither the French nor the Ameri~

lnces, which belong to us and which
the Almighty has intrusted to us to
administer as his stewards, and VIC
shall keep them for the benefit of their
inhabitants and the glory of God.
"Our faithful allies are with US in
this. The last drop of every Austrian

'sla soldier will be shed before our
enemies wrest from US land which be-
longs to Germany.

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY ON
THE ST. QUENTIN FRONT, Oct. 8,
10 "A. NJ. By The Associated Press).-
A great victory, the results Of which
undoubtedly will prove of the widest
Importance, especially at this time, has
been won to-day by two British armies
Ill tho field on front extending
twenty miles from Cambria southwark.
Americans participated in the centre,
and they plunged even moro deeply
into the enemy positions than at first
had been intended. The Hindenburg
system south Of Cambrai now has
thoroughly been broken up on front
of considerable width.
Elsewhere tho main lines of the Hin.
denburg system have been penetrated.
while to the north of Cambria it ap-
pears to have been turned by the op-
erations to the south.
Fast whippct tanks and armorcd
cars are reported now to be in action,
and If this is true--as it is believed
to be-thc offensive certainly has been
exploited.
1t was the Americans who stormed
and captured Brancourt and Fremont
after hard sighting. They reached their
obJectives we'll ahead Of time. In fact,
this was the case almost everywhere
along the line.
East of the line the British and
Americans now arc in the open coun-
try, and there seem to be reliable
indications that there arc no lines of
Importance there, at least for many
miles.
Once more terrific punishment has
been inflicted on the shattered and dis
organized German army.
Many a. trench and machine gun
post was turned into shambles in
TO- days fighting before the main
bodies Of the enemy ceased Offering
strong resistance. From then on it
was a case of fighting from she'll hole
TO shell hole and from one machine
gun nest to another nest In these
fights the German rear guard held
with the greatest desperation until
overcome.
The Germans again tried their trick
Of pouring deadly streams of bullets
into the advancing troops until the
Allies were right on top OF them and
then calling out "kamarcd" and cx-
pecting to receive no punishment. The
story of this is best told in the words
Of a lanhy Memphis lad, who said:

Senator Accuses Brewers
of Attempting to Run
Politics of Nation
Especial Dtspntch TO The Tribunc,

NCpeCIOI HtSpnLCI 10 Inc / r1Ourc)
WASHINGTON, Oct. s. - Charges
that evidence in the possession of the
Federal District Attorney at Pitts
burgh and the Attorney General Of
Texas would show that the brewers
have attempted to subsidize and con-
troll newspapers and magazines and to
dominate labor organizations were
made to-day in a supplementary memo
randum sent to the Brisbane Brewers
committee by Senator Wesley l., Jones,
Of Washington.
1t was further charged that the
brewers have contributed large sums
of money in political campaigns and
have eXacted promises of support III
return for this financial aid, and have
used the boycott against business in
tcrests which have opposed the liquor
traffic.
In the State Of Texas, it was charged,
the brewers have expended large sums
of money in payment of voters poll
taxes In violation Of Law, and have
similarly spent additional sums to
control state and Federal elections.
Jones Explains His Stand
Senator Jones's memorandum fol-
lows:
"I understand that some question
has been raised as to the scope of the
resolution under which your sub-com-
mittec is acting because of the re-
marks which I made when the resolu-
tion was passed by the Senate and
which, I understand, have been made
q part Of your record. Nothing that
said in any way limited or was in
tended to limit the authority of any
committee that might act under the
resolution and, in my judgment, does
not do so. What I said relates more
to the character of the proof that
would sustain the charges made, and
I had the belief then, and I have the
belief now. that every charge made
will be amply sustained by papers and
documents in the hands of A. Mitchell
Palmer, Alien Property Custodian, and
the Department of Justice and its dis
trict attorneys, together with other
documentary proof that the committee
can get by calling for it.
"The resolution was drawn-and
purposely $3.50 that any committee
acting under it would have ample au-
thority to follow any lead that might
be developed and that it might deem
desirable to follow by subpoonaing
documents or individuals to appear be-
fore it in person or otherwise, in or
der that the full truth or falsity of
these charges may be established.
"Thc first whereas in the preamble
Of the resolution has to do with the
sweeping charges made by A. Mitchell
Palmer, Custodian of Alien Prope rty,
against certain brewers, newspapers
and pro- German influences at work in
this country.

amble to the resolution relates to an

Disappointing
Minority Leader Against
Any Compromise Talk
With Germany
(Spcciat DISPATCH to The Tribune

Especial Dispatch to The Trsbunc)
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.--Senator
Lodge, of Massachusetts, minority
leader, expressed keen disappointment
tonight at the Presidents reply to the
German peace overture. "I cannot but
feel painful anxiety" said Senator
Lodge, "as to what effect this note will
have upon the Allies, upon our armies,
upon our soldiers who are fighting and
dying and conquering in order to crush
the Thing with which the President is
opening C. discussion
II am keenly disappointed that the
President should at this stage enter
into discussion with the imperial Ger
man government, as he has done in the
note signed by Mr.. Lansing" he said.
"In his first and second paragraphs he
asks for further information and in
vites further discussion. 1t is true that
in the last paragraph he inquiries
whether Prince Macmillan of Baden
represents merely the constituted au-
thorities Of the German Empire. Prince
Maximiian is the Chancellor of the
German Empire, appointed by the
Kaiser. do not understand what he
can possibly represent except the con-
stituted authorities, which represent
the German Empire and the German
people, unless q revolution has oc-
Cured of which the world has as yet
no knowledge.
ITO US he stands as the representa-
tive of Germany and of the Kaiser.
Wilson Is Quoted
"Personally I adhere to the state
ment Of the President made in his
speech of September 27 in which he
said:
"'We are all agreed that there can be
no peace obtained by any kind of bar
gain or compromise with the govern
merts Of the Central Empires, because
we have dealt with them already and
have seen them deal with other govern
ments that we're parties to this strug-
gle, at Brest-Litovsk and Bucharest.
They have convinced US that they are
without honor and do not intend JUS
tice. They observe no covenants, ac-
cept no principle but force and their
own interest. We cannot come to
terms" with them. They have made it
impossible. The German people must
by this time be fully aware that VIC
cannot accept the word of those who
forced this war upon us. We do not
think the same thoughts or speak the
same language of agreement
II feel very strongly that there
should be no discussion with the Ger
man government until they are ready
and compelled to accept the terms VIC
think it right to impose.

gestion by the Imperial German gov.

To help achieve their ideals of world
freedom, the American people con
verted 1851 ,556,900 into Liberty bonds
during the first eight days of the cam
paign for the finances of victory. Sta
ti5tcs announced by the Treasury De-
partment last night show that subscrip-
tions reached s26s, 900, the largest
daily total yet attained, on Monday,
which was the eighth day Of the drive.
Despite the acceleration Of the daily

running 1928 ,443,10 behind the sched-
ule necessary to maintain to reach the
goal Of 100000 100000. In order to wipe
out the deficit, the daily average for

October 8, ESQ e.. III.
American troops took part in three
tremendous blos.,. asalt the foe in
France yesterday.
British, French and Americans tore
away the last defences of the
Hindenburg line on twenty-mile
front between Cambria and st.
Quentin, and advanced an average
distance Of three miles, with q
maximum penetration of five
miles.
Pershing's army, including French
units, struck on an entirely new
front. The assault was made on
seven-mile front just east Of the
Meuse, above Verdun. The Allies
gained two miles and reached
approximately the positions from
which the Germans started the
famous first Verdun battle in
February, 1916.
In the Champagne Gouraud's French
army, in which many Americans
are Incorporated, attacked on a
front of four or five miles from
Machault, north Of st. Etienne,
Just cast of where the battleline
leaves the Suippe River, and ad-
vanced two miles.
In the centre of Haig's attack the
Thirtieth or "Wildcat" Division,
commanded by Major General
Edmund NJ. Lewis, advanced
three miles, captured Brancourt
and Fremont and took many forti-
fed farms and woods. The front
on which the Americans attacked
here was about seven miles. The
Thirtieth is composed Of North
and South Carolina and Tennessee
troops.
The assault, which was delivered
by the British Third and Fourth
armies, with Debcney's French
army on the south, began at 2:3O
o'clock in the morning, after a
tremendous bombardment, the
guns firing wheel to wheel.
Haig reported last night the opera
tion was uniformly successful.
An observer at the front calls it
severe defeat for the enemy.
The Allies were still moving for
ward everywhere last night.
Both Haig and Gouraud arc strik-
ing for the rear of the formida
BILE st. Gobain Massif positions,
protecting Laon. Pcrshing's new
move at Verdun is aimed to give
him a broader front on which to
attack Metz, the key to the great
iron fields Of Briey and Longwy.
Thus the Allies arc making great
strides toward the two principal
bulwarks of the enemy on the
whole West front.
