Amended Terms Severe.

Washington. Nov. 13.-Appeals of the
German arTnistice envoys to Marshal
Foch for modification Of the terms Of
surrender wore Of little avail. This 10
indicated by the amended terms which
were published today. q - - =
Chief amoag the changes made by
Marshal Foch was the inclusion of a
provision under which Germany is
-foYueA to give up her entire fleet of
submarines. The original terms pro-
vided FOR the turning over Of only 100
U-6o1ts. IS 10
Another Of the eighteen terms which
were amended provides that the desig-
mated units OF the common feet which
are to be surrendered must leave their
ports within seven days after the sign
ing of the armistice. No time lire:t was
nxed in the original draft. German
troops in east Africa are required to
eyacuate that territory instead Of sur
rendering.
Specific reference Is made in the
amended terms to repatriation of Ger
man prisoners of war at the conclusion
Of peace.
Territories which belonged to Aus
tria- Hungary before the war are added
to those which must be evacuated.
Russian provinces are to be evacuated
as soon as the allies. taking into acs
count the internal situation of these
territories, shall decide that the time
for this has come instead Of immedi-
ately.

ditions" threatened thru enforcement

TO organize relief work in the same sys-
te-ratic manner in which it was carried
