Germany Still
Determined To
Cloud The Issue

Paris, Nov. S.-The text of the
wireless exchanges between Marshal
Foch and the German high COM
mand show signs, the morning news
papers declare, that Germany is still
determined to cloud the issue in
every possible way, apparently with
the object of at least gaining time
il they cannot gain anything else.
The Matin says:
Berlin and all Germany are rapid

substitution of responsible secre-

ordered a general revision of the
lists OF soldiers and are calling up
new classes.

held on Hungarian territory.

was 1,104 per cent on this investment
and not 2637 per cent as stated.
"The average profit on investment

Russia went ahead today undisturbed
by reports that the Germans contem-

country Officials declined to com

OF developments in Russia and II is
apparent they thought there would

plans. The extent to which Germany
may be able TO exert military force on
Russia will depend as much OF
events on the western front as on
Teutonic willingness to assume fur
ther control in the east. Inasmuch
as they have done their worst so
far, unhampered by their peace
treaties, there is no inclination here
to look for any decided change in the
attitude of the Germans.
