1t. The President words just quoted
naturally constitute a condition pre-
cedent to peace. if peace is to come
by the action of the German people
themselves. The President feels
bound to say that the whole process
Of peace will. in his Judgment, depend
upon the definiteness and the satisfac-
tory character OF the guarantees
which can be given in this fundamen-
tai matter. 1t is Indispensable that
the governments associated against
Germany should know beyond per
adventure with whom they are deal
ing.
The President will make separate
reply to the royal and imperial govern
ment Of Austria-Hungary
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances
Of my high consideration.
Robert Lansing.
Washington, Oct. i4--With una
nimity. Senators and Representatives
oXprrssed ihemsely.. innivht as in
thorough accord with the note of
President Wilson in reply TO that OF
the German Foreign Secretary. Sena-
tors who. during the days debate in
the Senate, had voiced the fear that
the President might indulge in an at
tenuated peace parley with Germany
conceded that his attitude was ex
plicit and uncompromising.
The feeling was expressed by Sen
ators and Representatives that the
President had paved the way for the
overthrow Of the Hohenzollern dynas
ty They liked what they regarded
as plain, unmistakable phrasing in
this phase of the note. They voiced
unhesitating approval of the Presi-
dents insistence that Germany's
withdrawal from occupied territory
must be under supervision of the
allied commanders in the field
As a diplomatic document, Senator's
pronounced the Presidents note ad-
mrably phrased. They felt the note
would make It difficult for Germany to
adopt any course except to fight the
war through to a finish which would
mean her ultimate defeat, or surren-

progress today, and up to 2 O'Clock
this afternoon had taken Winkel ST

slightest attention to the peace talk
They smashed forward with all the

INCREASE IN ARMY MORE
THAN 1880 PER CENT

One of the interesting developments
Of the war, according to IA statement
authorized by the War Department, Is
the rapid expansion of the various
bureaus Of the War Department. Al
the outbreak Of the war there were
less than 5000 employees on duty. The
number now is approximately $4,000
an increase Of 800 per cent. Will,
this represents tremendous cxpan
sion. the increase In the Army itself
has been more than LOO per cent
Only 4 out of every 100 officers in
the service were In the Army at the
time the war began.
The increase IN personnel ut the nd
mmiStrative end of the war thus has
not kept pace with the growth Of the
Military Establishment.
