BROOM OF ALLIES
SWEEPINGHUNS TO
DISASTERS BRINK

PARIS, oct. To-day finds Ger
many a little nearer the brlnh of as
aster Marshal tochs broom, applied
IN the Champagne this time, mas swept
the enemy Dack from a wider section
OF the front than ever before,
General Ludenoortf now is reaping tbs
results of the cardinal error ne made
in thinking that the allied oItenSlV5S
were bound to be spaced at wide in
terValS like his Own. The continuity
OF the attacks has literally dumD-1ound-
ed the Germans and IL is plain that
there is vacllIation at granu German
headquarters.
For instance, the evacuation of the
Belgian coast appears to have been order
titles the inference that General Luuen-
dortt is no longer guided by purely
military considerations, either from lea"
of the demoralizing effect retreat on
a large scale would have IN the inte-
rior, or with the idea that the more
territory remains in his hands, the
stronger will be Germany'S position IN
it's conversations with Washington; In
The meantime General Ludenuorft is
letting PruSSla'S time slip by, for which
1t is likely he will repent sooner or
later.
Marshal Foch, in the preface to his
War; says
'Nogis army at Mukden sought not
so much TO crush the Russian right
by a flank attack as to get on his rear
the enemy's forces"
The allied commander-in-chief seems
now to be applying that principle in
France. The German front forms a
vast salient from the Escaut to the
Mouse, the extreme point of 1T being at
Anizy. Marshal Foch is attacking It
not alone on one of the flanks. but on
both alternately, while he is pressing
the center in the section between Id
Fere and Berry-au-Bac to prevent the
enemy's breaking contact and slipping
away.
At the beginning of the week it was
the turn of the left of the allied forces.
which struck in the direction of Maui
beuge and Guise. Yesterday it was the
right that delivered the blow, aiming
it i'm the direction of MeZieres. Whether
both wings break through or only one
is immaterial. The result would be the
same and the longer the Germans resist
what appears to be the inevitable the
worse for them. Every day adds to the
wastage of German electives and ma
.terial and should they hold on too long
their retreat would become rout.

DECEIVED
AND MISLED, SAYS
GEORGE BERNHARD

COPENHAGEN, Wednesday. Oct. 9
George Bernhard, writing in the Berlin
Nossische Zeitung, says that the sub
marine warfare would never have been
proclaimed if the German people had
not been deceived and misled. Discuss
ing the peace steps taken at Washing
ton in 1916 and 1917, the writer says:
IF we had known that President Will
son had been continually requested to
act as peace mediator and even that
specified conditions had been submitted,
our action would have been different
Had we known that at the moment un-
restricted submarine warfare was de-
clared President Wilson had agreed to
accept the role of mediator, the German
people, in the great majority, would
never have tolerated a policy which
brought upon them the reputation of be-
ing double-tongued."
All this, says Bernhard, goes far to-
ward making President Wilson's sharp
words understandable.
1T also explains Ambassador Gerard s
unmeasured speech, when one recalls
that the German government permitted
him to make a friendly address in the
presence of high officials at the very
moment when the submarine campaign
was already decided upon" he con-
cludes.

OVER MILLION HUN

the Marine, the Germans have lost 2OO.-
OOO men in prisoners and have suffered

las they have been unable to make
good this loss" he declared, they
have had to reduce their establishments
on the western front by not less than
half a million men. During this same
period allied strength on the western
front has been growing steadily. as
more and more American troops have
come into the field, so the balance of mill
itary power in the west is changing very
rapidly in our favor.
This is the. main fact to keep in
mind in considering the military Situa-
tion in the west. 1t is of more i'm
pOrtance than piercing the enemy's
strongest defenSeS or the recapturing
OF great towns. The enemE's commit
ments in the west are greater than ne
can meet and he must, therefore, re-
duce them"

BOlSheVik regime in Russia far more
than the feeble and disorganized efforts
of the opposing political parties. Tho
political strife in the isolated soviet re
public is becoming pitched battle fol
bread, in which all political theorie;

trying to steal the meager food supply
of the rural districts.

Bolshevik dictatorship of the proletarlat
faces the most terrible famine in moderr
history and the final test has come TO
the ability of soviet arms to maintail

Our Nations Greatness Founded
on Fatherhood of Man and
Brotherhood of God.

{ RE nth the growth of the nation
kx4&W there has been correspond
ing growth In responsibility.
The raw experiment of a
nation framed from the skel-
.N11 eton colonies Of the eastern
seaboard has proved the greatest sue
cess in government the world has ever
known. Democracy sits at the tables
of the land today. Brotherhood asks
it's helping from the amply filed
boards of the American home. These
two attributes Of the American people
fully express the secret Of Americas
success as a nation The growth of
the nation has been in accord with the
extension of these ideas. They are
both home ideas, and therefore they
are both ideas that express the inner
spirit of the day Of thanksgiving.
The fatherhood of God and the
brotherhood Of man-these were the
leading conceptions of the Pilgrim Fa-
Tiers. They are the leading concep-
lions of the sons of those fathers to-
day. They are the conceptions that
can never be made hackneyed by hypO-
critical use or by designing abuse.
They will stand forth in the genius
and action Of the American people I'M
til each year shall add praise to praise
in the measure Of the fullness Of rea-
sons for the giving Of thanks.
Peace, provision, protection-these
are the priced possessions Of ma
ton whose one aim Is to exalt the
ends of human liberty, to extend hui
man democracy and to exalt the ideals
Of human equality. As this nation
touches the world at large it does so
through its leading national concep-
tons, and only when these are vitality
own defense. It has the obligation
resting upon 1t to conserve the true
needs of liberty, and this can be done
only by insisting upon the sacredness
Of human rights and human opportu-
mites. Hence the day set aside for
thanks is day of pure and unadul-
terated Americanism, into which no
alien sentiment can possibly enter.
Hence it is that every head of the
family in acting in his capacity at
the head of the family board becomes
the priest of the things made precious
in the life of the country and of which
mention is made as thanksgiving
themes of the day. No more can the
nation depart from it's lofty mission
and progressive ideals than can the
earth swing away from the solar at
traction. The day Of home happiness,
the day of praise, the day of felicity
is a sacred and singular day in the
annals of American progress and Amer
lean world influence.

III Is 10 De lOpeu tHdC tHlS
Thanksgiving will not be a
pagan holiday, and that
those who do render thanks
T. will do so not as heather
o~ philosopher, Boosting that he
is not as other men, but in greater hu-
mility because he has perhaps been
more greatly blessed than others.
Outside of the many material bless
ings that have come to tine American
people during the past year, which are
good in so much as they contribute to
wholesome human happiness. there is
reason for the speople Of this country
upon this Thanksgiving day to be un-
usually thoughtful concerning their
place in the world, and to remember
how this eminence has been obtained.
Who can look back and not see the
band of Providence shaping the des-
tiny of America? This liberty which
is the marvel and the hope of the
world today was set up on these shores
by Godfearing men-the pioneers who
inaugurated this very Thanksgiving
holiday. 1t was for the love of the
service of God that liberty was estab-
lished in America, and it was this lib
erty that has been the basis of our ma
tional greatness and which Is to be
the political salvation of the world.
America cannot look back upon its
history without seeing God, and by
taking thought cannot fail to acknowl-
edge its gratitude for all his benefits.
With that stage of our development
passed we are now permitted to enter
upon that new era when America par
ticipates in abolishing tyranny and in
justice, ever hateful to God. and to
carry to the oppressed nations of the
world those principles of liberty
through which our own chief blessings
have come.
This is the supreme service that one
nation can render to anOther-tO safe
guard the liberties Of its people. In
this momentous time the burden of our
Thanksgiving this year it seems should
be that we are to be chief among the
ministers in working out the Divine
purpose to have all men-Greek and
Barbarian-free.
