BE CAREFUL OF FIRE
YOU CANNOT REBUILD

The Industrial Commission of Wis
cOnsin has sent out word of warning
to the people Of the state with re-
gard to fires. The letter to the chiefs
of fire departments among other Things
says:
Protection Of buildings is especial
ly important today Should store
buildings, factories not doing war
work, or residences Or other non-es-
sential buildings burn now, they can
not be rebuilt during the period of the
war. The merchant or manufacturer
would thus be a heavy loser, as the
loss of business is not covered by in
surance. Being thrown out of employ
ment would cause further loss Your
city would also lose the taxes on such
property.
A permit for the extension or repair
Of old buildings, costing over $25O0,
and for all new construction, must be
obtained from the U. S. War Indus
tries Board, and such permits are not
granted for buildings not essential to
winning the war. Neither will mater
ial men be allowed to furnish materials
for nOn-essential construction work
Applications for permits are made
to the County Council of Defense, and
forwarded by it to the State Council
of Defense, passed on, and forwarded
to Washington.

at Versailles.

London, Nov. 1.-Suggestions put
forward by the British delegates, the
Daily Express says in an editorial
probably will be adopted with 'some

The proposals were put forward, it
adds, with the definite idea of prevent.
ing Germany from resuming hostilfties
when once an armisttce is granted, and
also of securing adequate guarantees
for the signing of a peace pact based
on President Wilson's IA points.
Marshal Foch's armistice terms ar

VOssische Zeitung at Berlin says ii
learns, according to an Exchange Tele
graph dispatch from Copenhagen.
The preliminary conversations which
lately have occupied the allied repre-
sentatives in Paris have been cOnclud-
ed and more important discussions
now are beginning, according to re-
ports reaching official quarters here
To take part in the discussions, An
drew BOnar Law, chancellor of the ex.
chequer, went to France Wednesday
crossing the channel in an airplane, as
he had done on previous occasion.
The scope Of the deliberations of the
allied representatives has not-been
announced and, although it is stated
from a reliable source, some official
declaration Of armistice terms possibly
may be made before the end of the
present week, nothing definitely is
known about them.
Some commentators believe that the
deliberations will be protracted be.
