DISuKES TO ADVOCATE
German Emperor Says Time Has
Not Yet Arrived.
Kaiser Says He Will Step Down When
interests Of Nation De-

London, Nov. 1. - IF the moment
comes when the interests of Germany
demand it, I should abdicate without
hesitation, but the moment does not
seem to have come"
Emperor William is quoted as having
said this in an address to number Of
members of the German Reichstag, &C.
cording to dispatch to the Exchange
Telegraph from Amsterdam, quoting
advices from Berlin.
The emperor said the people must
not think that he had decided to re-
main on the throne at all costs.
The dispatch adds that it is gen.
orally believed in Berlin that If the
emperor abdicates it will be in honor
of Prince William, eldest son of the

Findings of Aircraft |nvestiga'
ton Are Laid Before the
President.
MUCH MONEY WASTED
Defective Organization and Serious
Lack of Competent Direction Are
Given as Main Reasons
for Delay and Waste.

Washington, Nov. 1.-The aircraft
investigation report, conducted in the
last five months by Charles E. Hughes
and Attorney General Gregory, was
placed before President Wilson by the
Attorney. General and at once made
public. '''' -' ' :-~'-,.-., .~ 2
Delays and wastes. of the produc'
ton program" the report declares,
were due chiefly to the defective or
ganization of the work Of aircraft pro-
duction and the serious lack of com
petent direction of that work by the
responsible officers of the signal corps
Civilian Personnel Exonerated.
No fault is found with the manage
ment of aircraft affairs since the reor
ganization of last May, which placed
John D. Ryan in charge. The civilian
personnel of the aircraft production
board is exonerated of~any wrong do
ing.
Attorney General Gregory, in a let
ter transmitting the report to Presi'
dent Wilson, says he is in "substan'
tial accord" with tho findings by Mr.
Hughes.
The report finds no graft" in the
generally accepted sense but makes
recommendations for proceedings
against army officers held guilty OF
dealing with corporations in which
they were interested.
About 81, 200, 900 Wasted.
The chief waste from the original
appropriation of $691, 1851 1866, the re.
port says, was In the abandonment of
two types of airplanes-one of them
the Bristol-and q failure to salvage,
aggregating about $24,000.0O0. ..,
The figures show that last May, of
that great appropriation, $134,000,0 900
actually had been disbursed, and that
up to Oct. 1 the expenditure had
reached about $140,O00,0 900 for all avia-
ton purposes. This did not include
expenditures of the sales department,
which buys material and resells it to
manufacturers and advances for build
ing plants. Contracts let, however,
committed about $470,0O0,000 of the
fund.
The figures are given in answer to
the general charge that the sum had
all been expended with practically no
results.
The attorney general concludes in
his letter Of transmittal that mo such
profits have been allowed as to justify
a charge of bad faith"

TAKE SERIES OF HILLS
Americans Also Capture Village
of AincreviIIe.
Resistance by the Germans Consists
Principally Of Machine Gun
Fire.

Washington, Oct. 81. - Aincreville
has been captured by American troops
operating north of Verdun and they
have established their line north OF
that village, General Pershing reports.
After capturing Aincreville the
Americans advanced north of the town
and established a new line on the
series of ridges in that region.
The big American guns all were
active, bombarding cross roads and
railway functions far and wide.
BY the occupation of Aincreville
the Americans have brought within
their lines a series of hills and natural
positions dominating the country for
miles. Aincreville was taken with but
little opposition, the resistance being
principally from machine guns.

ALLIED ARMIES
WIN BIC VICTORY
Defeat Austrians From Mountain
Region to the Plains Of
venetia.
FOR PEACE
Vienna, Realizing That Her Military
Forces Are Beaten and With Chaos
Reiqning in Dual Monarchy,

Asks for Truce.
London, Nov. 1.-With Turkey out
of the war, Germany's remaining ally,
Austria-Hungary, badly defeated on
the field of battle, her battleline cut
in two and with chaos reigning inside
her border, is pleading for truce.
Thus far her opportunities have re-
ceived no better answer than the re-
doubling of the efforts of the Allies
to crush her warriors.
The :capitulation of Turkey IS be-
lieved to have been an unconditional
one; the victories of the Allied forces
over the Austro-H ungarians threaten
to send what remains of the enemy
armies Keeling back to their border
line shattered and completely van
pushed.
More than $4,000 prisoners have
been taken by the Italian, British,
French, American and Czecho-Slovak
forces, and everywhere, from the
mountain region to the plains OF
Venetia, the enemy is being sorely
tried.
In the mountains, where stiff re-
sistance had been offered to keep the
foe from entering the back door OF
Austria, the enemy's front Is crack
ing under the violence of the attacks
and important strategic positions are
being lost.
Wedge Driven Into Line.
To the east of the Piave the Allies
have driven in a sharp wedge to the
northeast of Belluno, some 20 miles
from their original point of departure,
and severed connection between the
armies in the north and those on the
Venetian plains.
Over the plains leading to the Aus
TRAN frontier at the Isonzo river the
invaders everywhere are in full flight,
with the Allied troops pressing them
hard. Here the debacle seems to be
complete.
The enemy In his flight is leaving
behind large numbers ot-guns and
great quantities of war stores as he
endeavors to reach the passages over
the Tagliamento river.
It seems not improbable that on the
plains and in the region east and west
of Belluno large numbers of the en-
envy are destined to be captured.
Brilliant Aerial Work.
On the western battle front there 1s
still little fighting Of violent charac-
ter. but the intensive operations OF
the airmen seems to presage an early
roturn NJ battle Of major importance.
In Belgium both the British and
Belgian troops have made slight gains,
while the French on the southern part
of the line in France have advanced
their line and taken prisoners.
Aside from reciprocal artillery duels
and continued aerial raids by the
Americans and Germans, the American
sectors east and west of the Meuse
have been comparatively quiet.

British Representatives Conclude
Armistice With Ottoman En-
pire at SaIoniki.
SURRENDER COMPLETE
Terms Said to Include Free Passage
of DardaneIIes to AIIies-Impos-
sible for Sultan to Resume
HostiIities.

London, Nov. Turkey, tired OF
waiting for Germany to fulfill promises
of military and financial support
threatened with defeat at the hands
of the Allies, has thrown up the sponge
and retired from the war as an ally
of the Central powers.
Armistice terms, including the open
ing of the Dardanelles to the Allied
fleets, were signed at Salonika by
representatives of the British and
Turkish nations.
The truce went into effect I'M
mediately and the Dardauelles were re-
ported to have been opened.
Official Announcement Made.
Official announcement Of the uncon.
ditional surrender of the Ottoman EN-.
pire was made in the House of Com.
mons by Sir George Cave, home sec.
rotary.
Sir George said that occupation of
the Turkish forts on the BosphOrus
and in the Dardanelles, and repatria.
ton of Allied war prisoners were two
of the terms of the truce.
One of the ironies of the surrender
was the taking of the offer of Turkish
equalization to the British naval au-
thorities by General Townshend, the
British commander captured at Kut-
el-Amara.
He was released from captivity sew:
eral days ago to carry the offer to
Vice Admiral Calthorpe, in command
Of the Allied forces In the Aegean sea.
Armistice Formally Signed.
The Turkish peace ENJOYS arrived
at Mudros early this week and the
armistice was signed Thursday night
by Vice Admiral Calthrope.
It is believed, though not officially
reported, that ships of the Allied feet
have already entered the Dardanelles.
London, Nov. british representa-
tives have concluded an armistice with
Turkey at Saloniki, according to au-
thoritative information received here.
The terms are said to include free
passage of the Dardanelles and to be
such that it will be impossible for
Turkey to resume hOstilities.
Turkey is thus definitely out of the
war.
The proposals from Turkey are re-
garded as tantamount to unconditional
surrender.

proposals have not yet reached Lon.
