SOMETHING MORE THAN UN
CONDITIONAL SURREN-
DER MAY BE EXACTED

London. Oct. l0-The demand
Tor something more than uncondi-
tional surrender for Germany is be-
coming intensified in the newspap-
erS here. Letters recalling the crimes
OF Germany and urging retributiOn
include one from Prof. Spenser
Wilkinson. who declares that a con-
dtion precedent for the cessation OF
hoStilitieS should be the occupation
by the allies OF Metz. Strassburg,
Mainz. Trent, TrieSt and Pola.
Niscount Middleton. former Secre-
tary OF state for India, asks that
the allies make a declaration that
peace shall not be made until retri-
button is eXacted from German
towns for vandalism in France. The
Times describes the enemy's policy
OF burning and destroying towns
as he retreats. as a cruel and mean
blackmail." and says that German
towns like Hamburg and Frankfort
must be marked down for ransom in
return for French and Belgian towns
wantony destroyed.

With the American Army North
west OF Nerdun, Wednesday, Oct.
o.-(By The Associated Press)-
American forces operating west of
the Meuse river returned to the at
tack against the formidable Kriem-
hide line today. This assault was
made . Just south OF Romagne, and
a brilliant. speedy advance forced
the Germans back through the po
sitions prepared so long by the Ger
mans.
Farther to the right, the Ameri
cans forced their way through .lurin
wood, which was bristling with ma
chine guns. This success made it
easier to storm with the Mamelle
trench OF the Kriemhilde Steelung
line by sweeping away the thanking
fire OF the enemy which had previ-
ously rendered its capture so dif-
ficult.

London. Oct. 10.-Indications that
Germany is becoming anxious in
consequence OF threats OF reprisals
ior the destruction OF towns in
France are afforded by telegram
from the semi-ifficial Wolff bu-
reau. received in Stockholm saying
that Douai was burning, "0S result
OF the continuous British lombard
ment."
The reports that the Germans had
set fire to town they we're still oc-
cupying was characterized by the
agency as ridiculous.
The Germans. according to Reu-
ter dispatch from Stockholm, also
deny having fired Roulers. Tourout,
and Lichttrveld.

Al, which seems the next great town
marked for capture by the allies
along the British section OF the Sec
tor.
The American First army under
General Pershing is not being out
done by the other allied forces in
the delivery OF hard blows upon the
trembling German defensive sys-
TEN. The thrust east OF the Meuse
in the Nerdun area is being followed
up by further attacks which have re-
suited in the advance OF the line
here well up toward that won by
the offensive west OF the river.
In the Argonne, where a junction
has been effected with the French
at Lancon, thus virtually clearing
the forest OF Germans, new attacks
were launched this morning. All
the recent gains OF General Per-
shing'S men have been held, not
withstanding the throwing in OF Ger
man reserves.
Not the least interesting develop
ment of the American campaign is
the work of the air forces which ev-
identity have been assembled in such
numbers that an American bombing
which dropped more than
80 tons OF bombs on German areas,
on Wednesday, comprised no less
than $50 machines,

up in the most comprehensive manner
the entire subject of the newsdealers'
dissatisfaction with present conditions
in the business.

Mounds of Flowers Will Be
Erected in All the Parks

for General Prayer

The parks of New York City will be
showers of flowers will fall in honor
OF the country's new heroes-our SOL
diers dead in France-whosc graves arc
too far away to be marked save with
small wooden crosses and stray
flowers OF the field.
New York has chosen in this way
to commemorate Heroes Day, the first
memorial celebration for our recent
dead. One by one flower mounds will
grow in public places, each blossom
carried TO them by those citizens who
wish to mark the memory of some one
who has made the supreme sacrifice.
And as the flowers are being heaped
high in fragrant piles flock of air.
planes circling overhead will softly
sprinkle down stray petals upon them.
Heroes Day will be speat through
out the city-and in many other cities
all over the country-in prayer as a
memorial to all fighting men fallen
overseas. Leading up to the great act
of tribute in which all will participate,
there are to be many events COM
memorative of the day. In the morn
ing all churches will observe the oc-
casion with sermons and with prayer.
Soldiers and sailors, and all commar :
ing officers will be the guests of the
churches to-day. Many of Pershing's
men, who wen. through the hell Of
Chateau Thierry, will be among those
to pray for their comrades who fell in
action.
Special Park Services
In the parks an almost universal pro-
gramme will be followed. The flower
mound will be the hallowed centre of
interest, but besides this each park

Mayor Hylan's proclamation that the
day be specially honored has been rec
ognized by numbers of patriotic So
cieties, which will take leading part
in to-days services. At the Soldiers
and Sailors Monument, Riverside Drive
and Ninety-third Street, there will be a
large gathering to decorate the monu-
ment and to strcw the waters of the
Hudson with flowers. tied with red,
white and blue streaners. These cere.
monies will be repeated at Grants

One Minute of General Prayer
At 1853 in the afternoon a hush will
fall over the city. All traffic will
cease. Rands will stop playing. Even
the aircraft will slow down in motion.
The citizens of New York will stand
with bowed heads for one silent minute,
breathing prayers for the dead
