"Our adviceS from every state
point to a sweeping democratic
victory" said the statement IS
sued by Chairman Cummings.
THE democratic majority in the
next senate will be increased and
we will control the house by a
substantial majority. Reliable
estimates of net gains by the
democrats range from 30 to 90.
The tide is running strongly in
our favor, especially in the
middle west and far western
states, with a pronounced drift
toward democratic candidates in
every state"
The democrats, Chairman Cum
mings claimed, will control at least
two-thirds OF the states in which
senatorial contests have developed.
He predicted that democrats would
gain in nearly every state in which
there are contests for the house.
Some districts are admittedly close,
he said, but victories are assured
in a sufficient number OF districts

not less than so in the next house.
Republicans will control the next
house by a majority of 25 members,

committee tonight declared. While

NO QUIBBLING.

The same information, COM
ing through the same sources, in
dicateS that the armiStice terms
as finally agreed upon may be
made known to the world Mon
day or Tuesday, and that they
will be presented to Germany
for their acceptance in their en-
tirety or not at all, without op-
portunity for quibbling or trade.
From a military point of view
the proposal that the German
armies be disarmed and retired
80 miles beyond the Rhine is
claSSed only as tantamount to an
absolute surrender.
1t would not only throw open to
the allied and the American armies
many roads to Berlin. itself, but
rolling stock deprive them of means
to retrace their steps or fight if
they would.
There is some question among
military observers as to whether
such complete terms are really nee
essary. Undoubtedly the object
sought in proposing that the en-
emy retire so miles behind the
Rhine is to destroy the German in
ner defense system.
That system is supported by a
chain Of fortresses without which
the line would be untenable, and
some military experts believe it may
not be necessary to go farther than
demand the surrender or dismant-
