Local Chapter Makes Statement

Mankato Rcd Cross chapter today
issued the following statement:
The Red Cross, while urging the
most cordial support and co-opera =
lion On the part Of all its members,
does rot participate in the un.tH,t
Wa Work Fund campaign this
week. 1t is quite evident that there
has been misunderstanding in many
places on this point. The Rcd Cross
is amply equircd with funds with
which 10 take care of its needs until
the late spring OF next year at which
time "A campaign for funds for its re-
lief wrok may be necessary.
1T is but fair to the organization
in the United War Work fund that
the public should understand that
contributions this week are eXclu'
siyeiy for their work. 1t is also bu,
fair to the public that the people
should know that provision for the
needs of the Red Cross during the
coming year is not taken care of dur
Ing this campaign. The Red Cross
does rot authorize anyone to carry
on this week a campaign for funds
in its rame or for its work, but il
does urge the utmost possible gen
crosby toward the United War Work
Campaign for the seven recreationa
organizations whose budgets have
been approved by the national gov

''DOBDIN" GETS flu
IS COMMON AMONG BEASTS
OF BURDEN IN CITIES
Disease was Prevalent Before
Christian Era and at
Later Periods

Even faithful old "Do'-in" gets
the "fiu." The equine ailment re-
sembles the human affection in sew
eral important particulars. Tho
cause of influenza among horses is
attributed 70 some unknown germ.
and Il IS a common disease IN the
large cities of the country, effecting
horses which pass through infected
tables of dealers. According to
statements by the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture influenza
among horses at the present time is
under better control in all sections
of the country than ever before. This
result is attributed almost entirely to
the work of federal authorities in
combating the pest. Equine influenza
is an old disease among horses, and
has been recognized in various out
breaks for several hundred years past.

OUCH! PRICE OF MEAL
IN PARIS IS CUT TO 81
(By lifted Press.)

Paris, October IS. (By Mail)-
There is a piteous wall coming from
the aggriayed Paris restaurant own
crS.
The French food minister is forcing
them to serve a luncheon at twenty
francs (about So. And the restaur-
ant owners are having meetings,
conferences, consultations, and dis
cussions. But the food minister is
adamant hearted. He says if they
don't lower the prices in the better
class restaurants so that it will be
possible TO get a luncheon consisting
of soup, meat, vegetables, dessert,
ordinary wine and coffee, for four
dollars, he'll order them to serve ia
BILE d'hote luncheons at fixed prices.
Which would be terrible-with the
town full of Americans.
Of course, if the patron of the rest
aurants insists upon ordering things
not included in the -four buck
luncheon, the restaurant owner can
get his revenge upon the food minis
ter.
The general public that has tc
stretrt an inelastic twenty franc
note over a whole weeks luncheons
is wasting little sympathy upon the
tarried restaurant owners.

NAVY TO POLICE SEAS
American Warships Will Play An
important Part.
Passage by Congress of Building Pro
gram Will Be Pressed by
Administration.

Washington, Nov. 13.-The Amer.
lean navy is expected to play an i'm.
portant part in the proposed after the
war international policing of the seas.
For that reason, it was learned,
there is no prospect Of any reduction
in the present naval strength, and the
administration instead plans to press
urgently for the passage of the addi-
tional three-year building program re-
Gently placed before Congress by Sec
rotary Daniels.
The cessation of hostilities in Eu.
rope, it is believed, will permit con-
centration Of energy on speeding up
the capital ships program held back
heretofore by the necessity of produc-
ing special anti-submarine fotillas.
AS to disarmament possibilities in
cluded in the new world program to
be worked out, it was pointed out that
President Wilson had thus far pro-
posed reduction of ornaments only to
a point consistent with domestic Sc
curity. In view Of the present I'M
certain situation of the world no one
seeks to foretell just what naval force
must be maintained.

WORKING GIRLS LIBERAL
GIVERS TO u. w. w. FUND
Solicitors Comment on Their Willing
ness to Keep EN- Smiling.

Solicitors Comment or, Their Wiling
ness to Keep EN- Smiling.
Working girls are among the most
willing contributors to war funds of
all kinds. and in the opinion of men
who serve on soliciting committees
some of the young women who work
hard for livelihood have patriotic
spirit which wealthier people would
do well to emulate.
At War Work headquarters today,
those in charge were greatly pleased
over the fact of one Mankato working
girl, ard gave highest words of praise
for the patriotism of this young Wo-
man. When approached by the war
work solicitors, who told her that her
allotment was five dollars she un-
hesitatingly signed for $25. which she
will donate to the fund. In addition
to her generosity to the fund she
has never failed TO respond Loyalty to
other calls, and has knit twenty five
pairs of socks for the soldiers.
In striking contrast to the action
o. this young woman the solicitors
| found some men of means who re-
| fused 10 take their allotments. When
working girl responds so nobly ii
was the opinion of the committee
! that a man OF wealth who does not
at least take his allotment, must be
| poor spirited indeed.

RESULT IS UNCERTAIN
Minnesota Probably Has De.
feated Prohibition.
Official Returns From Fifty.nine
Counties Give "Wets" Lead
of 4,021.

Minneapolis, Nov. 13.-Official re-
turns from SO of the sc counties have
put the fate of the prohibition amend
ment in doubt, but it is believed that
it has been defeated.
In the SO counties reporting officially
there are 105,S23 votes in favor of the
amendment out of total of 9,706.
In those counties the amendment, to
have carried, must have had 109,S54
votes. The wet lead, therefore, is
4,O21.
Hennepin county, still to report Off
cially, will give the drys a lead of
approximately 1000 votes. Political
experts figure that it will be impos-
sible to gain that many votes in the
remaining counties, owing to the per-
centage of loss occasioned by un.
marked ballots.
With six precincts in Hennepin
missing, there were 60,695 votes cast
in the election. The drys got 32,526
and the vets 25,699. On the bases Of
the 60,695 vote, the drys needed go
34S. 1t means that their majority in
this county totals 2,17S, with the six
| precincts missing.

Germany Is Required to Sur
render Her Entire Fleet
of Submarines.
Is ARTICLES ALTERED
French Commander Made Amend
ments to the Terms of Armk-
stice Before Signed by
the Delegates.

Washington, Nov. Is. - Under the
shall Foch before he signed them with
the German ENJOYS Monday morning,
Germany loses her entire fleet of sub
marines.
Instead Of 100 vessels, every one Of
the undersea pirate craft must be sur
rendered TO the Allies and the United
States within II days.
Changed by Foch.
Eighteen of the articles as originally
prepared by the Supreme War council
and as read by President Wilson to
Congress were changed under the I'm
tied authority for alteration given the
supreme commander in dealing with
the enemy ENJOYS.
The State department received and
made public the amended articles,
with the explanation that no informa-
ton had come as to how the changes
were brought about.
Apparently most OF them were con-
coded in response to appeals of the
German spokesman, though several be-
sides that touching submarines make
the terms more drastic than before.
Demand of Cars Tripled.
Instead Of $4,000 railroad cars to be
surrendered in evacuated territory,
the number is made 10000. On the
other hand, the number of machine
guns to be delivered by the Germans
is reduced from 10000 to $4,000. The
German troops in East Africa are per-
mitted to evacuate instead of being
required to surrender.
Provision is made for considering
food needs il Germany in the taking
of means of transportation, and spe-
cific reference to the regulation of
repatriation Of German prisoners of
war at the conclusion of peace is
added
In response to the German fear of
anarchy i'm occupied Russian provinces
after evacuation, the time of evacu-
alton is changed from Immediately to
''as soon as the Allies, taking into
account the internal situation of these
territories, shall decide that the time
for this has come" Territories which
belonged to Austria-Hungary before
the war are added to those which must
be evacuated.
Armistic Commission Provided.
Another added clause provides fol
an armistice commission. to which
Germans will be admitted, to carry
out details under the direction of the
victorious military authorities and in
accord with appended notes. which
were drafted during the conference
between Marshal Foch and the Ger
