WAR TIME PRICES

People complain about time prices They complain because they asked to reduce their con sumption of meats, wheat and fats. They com plain because some of the substitutes cost than the food they asked to for their associates on the other side of the ocean, says the Food Ad ministration Bulletin.
 All right, suppose that we grant their complaint about prices. But then let us look at the thing from another angle. Prices are high. There is nc way to get around that War time prices have al ways been high They always will be high. But ii we ate only the things liked fully as well as the things we must save, and if we ate only the sub stitutes that cheaper how much of sacrifice would we be making in order to help win this war!
 Suppose that the who supplying our am munition said it was disgraceful to pay high prices for steel when wood much cheaper And then just suppose that they used the wood to make oui guns and our shels-its much cheaper and could be painted and smoothed down to look about like steel
 How long do you think our armies could stay n the trenches with wooden guns and wooden shells They could stay just about long as they could Ii we made prices the for taking food our o their mouths.
 Prices or no prices, must eat to win thls war Those people need beef, pork and mutton wheat su gar and fats We must furnish them.

PEACE Moves
ARE APPROVED
BY HINDENbURC
Field. Marshal and Crown
Prince Refer to NegOtia-
tions for ArmiStiCe in
Notes to Army.

With the French Army in France,
Oct. 23.-Field Marshal Won Hin
denburg, in an order to German Of
fcers In the field, referring to nego-
tiations for an armistice, declares he
approves the peace moves and is
obliged to support the government.
\ He asks that the confidence repoSed
in him in the days of success be con-
tinued.
The German crown prince, in an
order to the group of armies under
his command, reminds the officers of
the responsibility they incur when
they lose a position or modify the
line in any way without orders.
Copies OF these documents have fall
en- into the hands OF the French.
Political events of the past few
days, says Won Hindenburg, "have
produced the most profound impress
sion upon the army, notably upon
the officers. 1t is my duty to sup
port the government instituted by
his majesty.
\ 81 approve the steps taken toward
peace. The German army has su-
periority over all others in that the
troops and officers have never en-
gagged in politics. We desire to ad-
here to that principle. l expect
that the confidence that was accord
ed me in the days of success will be
all the stronger now"
The order of the crown prince is
shorter and almost curt. Is says:
"The exchange of diplomatic notes
gives me the occasion to recall my
order according-to which each Off
Ger in command engages his re-
sponsibility when he loses a posi-
ton or modifies his lines of resist
ance without express orders"
Another order which emanates
from German high command says:
Diplomatic negotiations with a
view to terminating the. war have be-
gum Their conclusion will be all
the more favorable in proportion as
we succeed in keeping the army well
in hand, in holding the ground con-
quered and in doing harm to the
enemy. These principles should
guide the direction of the combat in
the days that are to follow"
All these documents were taken
from the Fifth Bavarian division.

ALLIES AGREED
ON Terms FOR
NEGOTIATIONS
Naval Questions, Reuters
Learns, Will Be Held Of
First Importance in Ar
ranging Armjstice.

London, Oct. 23-Reuter's limited
learns that the allied governments
as result of continued communica-
tions are perfectly acquainted with
and agreed upon the terms under
which it will be possible to enter
into negotiations for/ an armistice.
1t should be observed that naval
questions have never been dealt
with in any negotiations between the
Uqited States and Germany and
they are of first importance from
the allies viewpoint.
THE idea of the freedom of the
seas as understood by Germany"
says the Reuter- dispatch. lis not a
matter that any allied government
can accept at ALL 1t would appear
that the conditions precedent to an
armistice must include the question
of sea power as we'll as of land
power, but hitherto Germany has
always limited its remarks to land
power.
America, Great Britain. France
and Italy owe so much to sea power
in carrying on the war and in ma
tional development that they cannot
omit consideration of sea power
from the discussions concerning the
armistice.
THE president never assumed
that his conditions would be limited
to the evacuation of occupied terri
tories, as the Germans always ar
gued. He put a number of questions
to Germany after receiving the first
note as a preliminary to placing the
matter before the allies"
