By Associated Press.

On several of the most important
sectors in France-from the region
of Valenciennes to the east of lie
Cateau; north of Laon, between the
Disc and the Serre rivers, and on
the front from the Meuse river to
the vicinity of Grandpre-battles of
a sanguinary character are being
fought. In these the British,
French and American troops every
where are making progress aginst
the stubbornly resisting Germans.
In Belgium the allied forces, ow-
ing to the rapid retreat of the enemy
and the flooded condition of the
loWlands, have not yet been able to
come itno full fighting contact with
the Germans, but doubtless a few
days more will see them again hard
after their quarry and driving him
farther toward his 'own frontier.
Valenciennes Being Enveloped.
South of Valenciennes the British
third and fourth armies with which
Americans are cooperating have
continued successfully to press on
ward with Mons and Maubeuge
their objectives. Valenciennes is
gradually being enveloped, and soon
is destined to be pinched out of the
fighting line by turning movements
from the north and south in the
manner generally adopted in the
present day tactics when it is more
desirable to envelop strong posi-
ton than to waste life and limb in
reaching the objective by frontal at
tacks.
The Germans in this region con-
tinue to use numerous machine guns
to retard the advance of Field Mar
shall Haig's men and the artillery OF
both sides is violently active. Brit
ish aviatCrs are materially aiding
the offensive by dropping bombs be-
hind the line or flying low and cut
ting troop formations to pieces with
machine gun fire.
Blotting Out Salient.
South of the Oise river the
French are making sharp thrusts
against the enemy with the inten-
ton of clearing out the entire tri-
angle between Flavigny and Mont
cornet and taking all the railroad
lines within this region and also
blotting out the salient that still ex-
lists there. The Germans are strong
ly counter-attacking on all the
fronts of attack, but the French
have warded off their efforts to re-
gain lost territory and have gained
ground south of Montcornet, one of
the principal railway functions m
this region.
North of Grandpre and north of
Verdun, in the sector lying between
the Meuse river and north of the
Argonne forest, the Americans have
cut further and deeply into the enc
ny's line, despite the continued ex-
tremely heavy use of machine guns
and artillery by the Germans.
American aviators are dropping
bombs behind the enemy lines,
while enemy airmen are returning
the compliment by bombing towns
inside the American front.

Famous BeIfry of Bruges
Used by Huns as Garage

Washington, Oct. 24-The FAM
Gus belfry of Bruges was used by
the Germans as a garage and work
shop during their occupation of the
city. Allied troops on entering the

ceived~by the Belgian legation to-
day, found the interior walls of the

One report current To-Day was tnal
the associated nations would imme-
diately form a joint diplomatic staff

resent the United States. A majority
of the newspapers have urged the

terms in common with the other al
lied powers, and considers such an
announcement overdue.
Endorses Wilson Program.
Amsterdam, Oct. 24.-Baron Won
Hussarek, the Austrian premier, in
discussing President Wilson's reply
t. Austria in the House of Lords
in Vienna Tuesday, said that Aus
tria was able to indorse the presi-
dents peace program without chang
ing deep rooted convictions. He de-
ciared it was a historic and funda-
mental idea of the Hapsburg mon.
archy that all its peoples should
have equal rights. He did not think
the presidents reply would result in
a breaking off of exchanges,
Czech members declared that the
plan embodied in the imperial mani
festo for the establishment of a
Czech state was impracticable.
Demands Separate Peace.
Advices received from Budapest
say that in the Unterhaus Wednes-
day Count Karolyi, in moving a res
olution in favor of the indepcnd-
ence of Hungary, demanded the res
ignation of the Wekerle cabinet and
the formation of a coalition minis
try. The resolution also called for
the conclusion of separate peace.

many, Acknowledgement of the in

and the proclamation of a Hunga-

Count Karolyi declared if the de.

would take means to secure their
realization.
Amid great excitement DR.. WEEK.

that he would oppose by every
means Count Karolyi's threat OF a
revolution and added that there
could be no talk of a separate peace.
< Premier Loyal to Germany.
DR.. Wekerle asked the house to

Il also declare against the adop-
ton in their entirety of the Ia
points of the presidents address Of
last January as offering a basis for
a peace satisfactory to the United
States. Let us dictate peace by the
hammering guns and not chat about
peace to the accompaniment of the
clicking of typewriters.
Wilson's Points "Mischievous."
The language of the IA points
and the subsequent statements ex-
planning or qualifying them is neith-
er straightforward nor plain, but if
construed in its probable sense
many, and possibly most, of these
N points are thoroughly mischiev-
ous and if made the basis of a peace
such peace would represent, not the
unconditional surrender of Ger
many. but the conditional surrender
of the United States. Naturally
they are entirely satisfactory to
Germany and equally naturally they
are in this country satisfactory to
every pro-German and pacihst and
socialist and anti-American So
called internationalist.
The only peace offer which we
sfould consider from Germany at
this time is an offer to accept such
terms as the allies, without our aid,
have imposed on Bulgaria. We
ought to declare war on Turkey
without an hours delay. The fail
ure to do so hitherto has caused the
talk about the world safe for de-
mocracy to look unpleasantly like
mere insincere rhetoric. While the
Turk is left in Europe and per
mitted to tyrannize over the sub
ject people the world is thoroughly
uEsafe for democracy.
Should Be Staunch Ally.
Moreover, we should find out
what the president means by contin-
ually referring to this merely as the
associate instead of the ally of the
nations with whose troops our own
troops are actually brigaded in bat
tie. If he means that are something
less than ally of France, England,
Italy, Belgium and Serbia, then De
means we are something less than
an enemy of Germany and Austria.
We ought to make it clear to the
world that we are neither an un-
trustworthy friend nor an irresolute
foe. Let us clearly show that we do
not desire to pose as the umpire be-
tween our faithful and loyal friends
and our treacherous and brutal en-
emies, but that we are the staunch
ally of our friends and the staunch
foe of our enemies.
when the German people repu-
diate the Hohenzolerns, then and
not until then, it will be time to dis
criminate between them and their
masters. I hope the senate with
the house will pass some resolution
demanding the unconditional sur
render of Germany as our war aim
and stating that our peace terms have
never yet been formulated or ac-
cepted by the people and that they
will be fully discussed with our al
lies and made fully satisfactory to
our own people before they are dis
cussed with Germany"

Italians Show Fairness.

There is no question concerning an
outlet to the sea. since the Jugo-Slavs
have an excellent harbor at Cattaro.
The Italians are showing extreme
fairness in occupying the frontier as
deliurited by the terms of the arnis-
tice.s They are. perhaps, almost too
mild with Austrians suddenly trans
formed into Slavs. Without meddling
in the internal affairs of the liberated
nations, it seems possible for the
United States to prevent much ILL
feeling and the development Of serious
disorders by using it's friendly offices.
