roaring guns. and, planted, lack IN cpl

perish while the landscape rocks be
Meath the marching Of their foes. At
Wilhclm's word the gray-clad ones march

while the kaiser and his sons are put

used arc weird and strange, for count
less leagues their missiles whoop; but
no gun has so great n range that II can
hit that Sacrct group. Though death
may riot mid tho Huns. and for the last

THE HINDENBURG LINE
SMASHED

eThe Hindenburg line, the great de
tense OF the German armies. has prac-
t:cally ceased to exist
The fall of st. Quentin and the prac-
teal capture Of Cambrai have de-
shoyed its two great positions. The
Germans have been apparently for
some days retiring steadily from both
places. and further back they I'm
doubtedly already have some new
lines OF support. No temporary de-
lenses, however. can long take the
place Of the great cities that have
been centecs Of transportation and dis
trfhution. An army holding 4 line Of
defense for any length Of time must
have abundant railroad connections
and centers Of supplies. These the
Germans have lost in the loss Of Cam,
brai and St Quentin. TO say nothing OF

have been practically rendered useless
by allied guns.

A PROPER REBUKE

The eleventh-hour appearance OF
President Wilson as an advocate OF
the woman's suffrage amendment was
not digrifed, and was not effective.
Students of the vote declare that Mr..
Wilson's dramatic outcry into the
woman's suffrage fight did not change
L single vote. The Presidents appeal
for woman suffrage as a war measure
was an ahsmdity. The Inteligencer
believes in woman's suffrage. 1t be-
leves that the Intelligent patriotic
God-fearing women OF America should
be granted the ballot, but it also be-
l;eves that they would not be worthy
Of the ballot if the failure to get it at
this particular time would in the least
ahate their patriotism or their sacri-
flee
After the war is over and the part
which American women have taken in
it is well understood there viii be an
overwhelming demand for woman suf-
frage-not by women alone, but by
thinking; men. But America does not
have to brlbe or buy the patriotism Of
American women now. Whether the
suffrage amendment passes this week.
this month. this fall or within the next
five years, American women are going
to do their full duty. with all the 10y
alty and courage that the finest and
rohlest women in the world are
capable Of.

Wilson'S theatricals to the contrary
Notwithstanding. The Senate Of the
United States very properly rebuked

ton

THE OCEAN CROSSED

The ocean has been crossed in an
airship. Late in July the adventurous
voyage was made by Americans, act
ing under the direction of American
military authorities, and the fight
from New Foundland to Ireland was
accomplished in a little less than
twenty-four hours.
It is impossible to limit the vast
vistas Of possibility which this an
opens up. Aerial voyages
across the Atlantic are. of course, not
going to become the common thing at
once Mans progress, rapid as it is. Is
gained only by ceaseless effort and
costly experiment. But what can be
done by one set OF men is soon dupI-
Gated and exceeded BY others. 1t has
not been much over ten years since
The Wright brothers first demonstrated
successfully the heavier than air flying
machine The engine the Wrights
used was marvel for its time Today
airphnes are using engines Of ten
times the efficiency for weight that
the Wright engines had.
There is no reason to suppose that
the limit has been reached in the i'm
provenent OF aerial engines, or in the
development Of materials for airplanes.
Airplane travel is certain to become q
very important factor in the lives Of
the people of the future. Any method
IF transportation that reduces the
time between Europe and America to
one day instead Of five or six will be
used, Its uses will grow, and it does
rot take much imagination to foresee
the time when aerial fight across the
ocean will be an ordinary thing.

McPherson's Military Comment

in France-thcir next natural front i,
that OF tho Scheldt and the Meuse.
Ludcndorff's attempt 10 postpone an
inevitable "stratsStcal withdrawal" TO
the French and Belgian borders has been
CHASTITY failure. On the part Of the
front on which the British armies have
been operating he lost to them in Au-
gust and September 123.6lS prisoners
and 400 guns. The French and Amer.
cans and BelRians on the rest Of the
front have taken In those two months
more than 100000 prisoners and perhaps
1000 guns. The process Of attriliun has
run everywhere tremendously against
Germany: And Ludcndorff now faces
thu great additional losses made newt
able by another difficult and democrat
lzing retreat.
The political situation in the Balkans
has been pretty we'll cleared up. Tho
military situation is still somewhat con-
fused. The Bulgarian armies hive
stopped flghting. Eut We know little SO
far about tho strength OF the German
and Austro-Eungari;tn units left in Ser
bi;l and in the Danube valley.
Allied forces have reached Cskuh.
Thence their natural line Of advantage

In this comment yesterday il was
said: 1T sonly question now Whetner
st. Quentin will fall before In Ferc or
La Fera before st. Quentin" St Quen-
tin got under tho wire flrst. Genera
Debcney's troops entered that city yes
terday afternoon
This reversed the order in which Royc
and Lassigny fell. They occupied in the
old German line Of 1917. bounding the
Noyon salient. relatively the same posi-
tions as St Quentin and La Fere have
occupied In the Hindenburg line. Las
sieny. defended the angle from which the
l9l4-'7 line turned southeast toward
Noyon. La Fere defends the angle from
which the IIindenburg zone cut sharply
southeast below Laon. But 1-assignE
yielded first. Then Roye became indc-
fcnsiblc. Now st. Quentin has yielded
and La Fere has bGccne useless to the
Germans
La Fere. IN fact, has been only Hin
dcnburg zone outpost for the last three
weeks. The French had driven in to the
north Of it. reaching the Disc river bank
all the way up from La F'ere TO Moy.
They had also pushed up to the south
and southeast of ST. Qeuntin. and when
the development on the northwest and
north was completed there was nothing
left for the Germans to do but 10 move
out BESIDES entering the town. Gem
eral Debeneys troops also made progress
Yesterday in its rear toward the Disc
river.
On the sector between La FErc and St
Quentin Lundendorr will now probably
draw back his broken armies behind the
Disc which Is parallGled on Its west
side by tho Disc canal. The canal and
the watercourse offer q temporary pro-
lection as far up to the bend just north
west Of Guise- But there is wide gap
from that point.to Valencienncs. whence
the Scheldt river offers a thronG line OF
defense north to Client and Antwerp.
The upper Scheldt extends from VAL
encicnnes southwest to Cambria. Bu.
tho Germans have been unable to hold
Cambria. They set fire to II yesterday.
AS soon as they abandon it the line OF
the Schcldt from Ealencicnnes south
west will BE- turned.
Ludcndorfr's present situation calls,
therefore, for more extended retire
ment. He has been retiring in install
mcnts ever since the Montdidfer salient
was broken. And every stand he has
made has been Intellectual. The Hindcn-
burg limo Iron wall is falling to pieces
everywhere from Dixmude to the Mouse.
Once the Germans are forced out OF this
defense xone-the strongest they have
