Board, the War Camp Com

Salvation Army in response to
my request that they combine
their respective financial drives
in one united war work cam
paign, November Ills. to secure
the sum of at least $17O,500, 900
for their invaluable work.
THE wise economy OF money
and effort, the increased eff
cheney which will result from q
blending of experience, the crea-
tion OF an atmosphere OF truer
understanding, the unmistakable
evidence of a growing unity OF
spirit and the influence OF all
this in strengthening the ma
tional solidarity is reassuring in
the extreme.
"As you now stand on the
threshold of presenting your APP
peal to the entire American peo-
pie, 1 wish to renew the expires
sion OF my conviction that the
service rendered by these welfare
agencies Is Indispensable. and my
earnest hope for the abundant sue
cess OF the campaign.
THE inevitable growth of the
army and navy. and the multiply
ing demands for our help from
France, Italy, and Russia make II
clear that a generous oversub-
scription is highly desirable. No
matter how distant the day Of
peace may be. IL will be followed
by a long period of demobiliSa-
ton, during which the opportunity
and need for constructive work OF
these organizations will be quite
as great as in wArtimes, and am
glad to note that your plans con-
template serving the soldiers and
sailors in this critically important
period. ] am particularly pleased
to know of the comprehensive
program OF education to be car
ried out during the coming
months.
Gifts that provide the service
which this campaign makes pos
sible are not so much gifts to or
ganizations as gifts-invaluable
gifts-to our soldiers. sailors, and
marines and constitute an appro-
pirate expression OF our gratitude
for their patriotic and unselhsh
service, and the whole plan of the
United War Work Campaign Is in
spring. and is most emphatically
in the interest OF the nation and
of all the lands, with which we
are associated in these momentous

WEEK DISASTROUS
FOR FOE ARMIES
BY. W. T. MASON.

NEW YORK. Nov. 1O-The closing
days Of the war. now passing into his
tory. have brought. this week,
strategic and irrevocable disaster
upon the German army. which finds
its first Mt penalty in the Kaiser's
abdication.
1t is no longer possible for Won
Hindenburg to continue the conflict
in accordance with sound military
principles. In France, he has been
driven back upon the Ardennes hills,
where the lines OF communication are
too difficult to permit a protracted
defense The Americans have closed
and bolted the way OF retirement into
Germany via Luxembourg; while in
Belgium the invaders are being press
ed into the neck Of a bottle which
permits only a single passageway
home, via Liege, scarcely twenty-five
miles wide.
Delayed Truce.
The entrance OF the Kaiser's ar
mistice commission into allies lines
was delayed this week to the last
moment consistent with the safety
OF German territory. The cleaning
up process in France is now prac-
tically completed, except along the
environs Of the German boundary.
IL the war were to continue, Marshal
Foch would be able to put into i'm
mediate action his plans for the
direct invasion OF Germany.
The attack would move in the
direction OF Luxembourg and Lor-
raine and would be a separate cam
paign from the operation in Bel
GUM. The conditions imposed on
Won Hindenburg would compel him to
defend the Rhine against a major
offensive with only one half of his
forces. The other half is now
along the Belgian front and skirts
the Franco-Belgian border, in grave
peril of being slaughtered If 1t re-
treats much further into the neck of
the bottle.
HIndenburE Helpless.
Won Hindenburg's present position
OF utter helplessness is due to the
fact that during the past four
months he has been out-maneuvered
in mastery fashion by Marshal FOch.
The result of Marshal Foch's STRAIT
egg Is that IL the Germans, in an in
sane moment, were to try to con-
tinue the conflict, they would be
forced to fight two campaigns
simultaneously-one in Belgium and
the other along their own border
Only disaster to Won Hindenburg
could result and IL is difficult to
believe he would even attempt the
direction OF SO helpless a task.
Faced, therefore, with certain ca
tattrophe on the battlefield, and with
revolutionary movements spreading
everywhere at home, the Germans
have no choice in the matter Of the
armistice terms. The Kaiser has read
them not to debate nor to appeal to
"Gott," but solely to know what Ger
many must do to relieve the intoler-
able strain of war. The Raiser's de-
cision to abdicate, coming so quickly !
upon the receipt of the allies drastic |
armistice conditions is the Inevitable |
outcome of the situation. The dread |
full gamble OF the Hohenzollerns for |
world mastery has been lost The |
Kaiser's is the first penalty. There |
after will come the turn of the Ger
man people.

Of June 8. and is proceeding TO an

The Navy Department was without
any further details. nor was it able
to state the tonnage of the Eidsvold
or the size of the crew she carried.
The boldness of the enemy U-boats
is becoming a matter of increasing
interest to naval officers, many of
whom expected that after Sundays
sinkings the U-boats would make <for
their home port or hidden base on
this side of the Atlantic. The continued
activity of the enemy vessels however,
is creating more and more the impress
sion that a mother ship of some sort
is supplying the U-boats with pro-
visions and ammunition. 1t is point
ed out that each of the shells fired by
the type OF gun mounted by the under
sea boats weighs approx imately eighty
