NAVY TO POLICE SEAS
American Warships viii Play An
Important Part.
Passage by Congress of Building Pro.
gram VIII BE Pressed by
Administration.

Washington, No. Ia. = The Amer
lean navy is expected to play an i'm
portant part in the proposed after the
war international policing of the seas.
For that reason, it was learned,
there is no prospect Of any reduction
In the present naval strength, and the
administration instead plans to press
urgently for the passage of the addi-
tional three-year building program re-
Gently placed before Congress by Sec
rotary Daniels.
The cessation Of hostilities in Eu-
rope, it is believed, will permit con-
centration of energy on speeding up
the capital ships program held back
heretofore by the necessity of produce
ing special anti-submarine fotillas.
AS to disarmament possibilities in
cluded in the new world program to
be worked out, it was pointed out that
President Wilson had thus far pro-
posed reduction of ornaments only to
a point consistent with domestic Sc
curity In view of the present I'M
certain situation of the world no one
seeks to foretell just what naval force
must be maintained

Germany Is Required to Sur
render Her Entire Fleet
of Submarines.
IS ARTICLES ALTERED
French Commander Made Amend,
ments to the Terms of Armi-
stice Before Signed by
the Delegates.

Washington, Nov. II. - Under the
armistice terms as amended by Mar
shall Foch before he signed them with
the German ENJOYS Monday morning
Germany loses her entire fleet of sub
marines.
Instead of 100 vessels, every one OF
the undersea pirate craft must be sur
rendered to the Allies and the United
States within IA days.
Changed by Foch.
Eighteen of the articles as originally
prepared by the Supreme War council
and as read by President Wilson to
Congress were changed under the linn
tied authority for alteration given the
supreme commander in dealing with
the enemy ENJOYS.
The State department received and
made public the amended articles
with the explanation that no informa
ton had come as to how the changes
were brought about.
Apparently most of them were con
coded in response to appeals of the
German spokesman, though several be.
sides that touching submarines make
the terms more drastic than before.
Demand of Cars Tripied.
Instead of $4,000 railroad cars to be
surrendered in evacuated territory,
the number is made 10000. On the
other hand, the number of machine
guns to be delivered by the Germans
is reduced from 10000 to $4,000 The
German troops in East Africa are per-
mitted to evacuate instead of being
required to surrender.
Provision is made for considering
food needs in Germany in the taking
of means Of transportation, and spe-
cific reference to the regulation Of
repatriation of German prisoners of
war at the conclusion of peace is
added
In response to the German fear of
anarchy in occupied Russian provinces
after evacuation, the time of evacu-
alton is changed from Immediately to
"as soon as the Allies, taking into
account the internal situation of these
territories, shall decide that the time
for this has come" Territories which
belonged to Austria Hungary before
the war are added to those which must
be evacuated.
Armistic Commission Provided.
Another added clause provides for
an armistice commission, to which
Germans will be admitted, to carry
out details under the direction of the
victorious military authorities and in
accord with appended notes, which
were drafted during the conference
between Marshal Foch and the Ger
man delegates.

WAR DEPARTMENT BACKS
War AID PLUS QUOTAS

President Wilson and the war de-
partment have formally approved the
augmented subscriptions sought in
the United War Work Campaign. This
is made known in a resolution adopt
ed by the Commission on Training
Camp Activities Oct %, which speci-
dcally states that the war department
has been consulted and that it APP
proves of the plan.
Since the needs of enlisted men
have grown apace with the increased
army and navy, the campaign leaders
have determined that at least fifty
per cent subscription of the original
goal is imperative. The following i'm
pOrtant resolution is an eloquent testi-
monial OF the urgency fer large plus
subscription in the coming drive:
1.-THE Commission of Training Camp
Activities with knowledge of the ac-
tual and probable requirements of the
seven organizations cooperating in
the United War Work Campaign are
convinced that owing to the changed
and enlarged plans of the American
Army and Navy larger sum will be
nedeed than one hundred seventy mil
lion five hundred thousand to carry
their work through the coming sum-
mer, notwithstanding the wise and
substantial economies which are be-
ing effected as a result of the valua-
BILE process of coordination and CO.
operation now going n under the d.
recticn Of the Commission Of Eleven
and would therefore express the hope
that the American people may be glad
to respond to an appeal in November
with a generous oversubscription.
"The War Department has been
consulted and concurs."
