according to a statement by Premier
Clemenceau of France and teIegfaphed
here to-day. He said:
"The Germans themselves acknowl-
edged i'll what q great. conciliatory
spirit we carried the discussion re-
specting the armistice. and they pur-
pose to issue a manifesto which is a
homage to France and her allies.
"The German plenipotentiaries par
ticularly discussed the food question.
We maintain the blockade, of course,
for the duration of the armistice, but
as the situation OF Germany and Aus
tria is hopeless we will do our best to
revlctual them as much as we can af-
ford without any inconvenience to our
selves.
"The transport question dominates ali
these problems. Germany is to restore
all the engines locomotives and 15O,-
QUO carriages taken from us. This will
not facilitate her own revictualling
means. Germany waited until the last
minute. when, exhausted, she was COM

abied her to revictual. From the first

Soils Appeal May
Be Effort to Lay
Basis for CIen7ency

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.--Thc ap-
peal of DR.. Solf, Foreign Secretary
at Berlin, for intervention by Presi-
dent Wilson for mitigation OF the
armistce terms to save Germany from
starvation was delivered to Secretary
Lansing to-day by Minister Sulzer of
Switzerland. 1t was sent Immediately
TO the President.
Officials say DR.. Solf is needlessly
alarmed. They point out that In spite
peoples in her hour of victory, it has
been made very plain that the United
States and the Allies have no intention
of permitting the German people to
starve.
In view of the situation in Germany,
where outside aid may be necessary
to prevent anarchy. it Is possible that
the President may see fit to take up
| with the Allied governments the ques-
ton of giving some kind of reassur-
ance rs to the humane purposes Of the
Associated Powers.
Among other things. it is under
stood the plan is to put the German
merchant marine into service as soon
as possible after the problem created
by the naval revolt is cleared up, and
such vessels as may be necessary will
be employed for sending supplies
through German ports.

that DR.. Solf's plea may be designed

German People Sought War
and Backed the Kaiser

BOSTON. Nov. 12-Discussing the
problems Immediately confronting the
government at victory celebration
at the City Club tonight, United
States Senator Henry Cabot Lodge
warned against a new pacifist and pro-
German campaign both in this country
and in England, which, ne said, was
sure to follow the signing of the
armistice.

manded an armistice that constituted
unconditional surrender. The Ameri-
can people may now have the kind of
ieace they wish, if it is demanded by
them and the press. The peace they
want is q peace enforced by physical
guarantees"
Should Restore Poland
Senator Lodge enumerated the phys
ical guarantees which he has repeat
edly described in the Senate and else
where, but added his opinion that the
German colonies ought not to be re-
territory should be taken to restore an
cient Poland and form q barrier be
tween Germany and Russia, extending
to the shores of the Baltic. Then, he
said, it would matter little what kind
of government finally was set up in
Gemany. 1t would be powerless to
repeat the crimes Of the Hohenzol-
lerns.
The German people, Senator Lodge
said. could not escape responsibility
by shifting the blame to the Emperor
whom they threw over.
People To Blame
There never was time," he said,
when the armies and the people could
not have put an end to the war. They
regarded war as all industry. In their
school books they taught that Germany
was an empire Of Central Europe sur
rounded by enemies. The German peo-
pie wanted to win the war just as
much as the Emperor did, They
brought it on deliberately. They
backed the war.
"The German people adhered TO the
imperial government until their armies
were beaten in the eld. For forty
years they boasted 'the day. they
toasted the day. and now the day has
come. They must pay iudemnitics, and
advocate taking and holding towns
and territory until the indemnities are
paid.

Blame Revolt to British

LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE Press Asso-
ciation learns that Germany is accus-
ing British agents of fomenting the
revolutionary outbreak IN the German
navy. The association says il under
stands on the highest authority that
there is not the slightest foundation
for the accusation. On the contrary,
the revolution is deeply regretted be-
cause it robbed the British navy of an
opportunity to obtain the naval victory

fore Marshal Foch reported the doc
un,ent AZ actually signed at his
headquarters.
Disarming of Ships
At the end Of the seven-day
period, which will expire at mid
night next Sunday, the designated
units of the feet, the armistice
provides, must be completely dis
armed
Prompt action, even under nor
NAL conditions, would be required
of the German naval forces to dis
arm vessels Of the battle-cruiser
and battleship type within seven
days, naval experts here said.
In some quarters Tonight fear
was expressed that, with the Ger
man navy in a disorganized condi-
ton, owing to the revolution. the
necessary preparations for turn
ing over tie vessels might not be
completed in the period specified.

To Protect Troopships


Pending completion of the sur
render of the ships demanded and
disarning Of others, and particu-
larly while any submarines re-
main in German hands, Secretary
Daniels said there will be no re-
taxation in the protection Of
troopships and other vessels.
Eventual disposition to be made
Of the Austrian and German ships
acquired by surrender has not
been indicated by officials here. 1t
is regarded as certain that the
Supreme War Council at Ver-
sailles worked out definite prof.
ect in this respect, which will soon
be disclosed.
A summary of the changes fol
lows:
Article 3-Fifteen days instead
Of fourteen are allowed for the
repatriation, beginning at once,
of all the inhabitants removed
from invaded countries, including
hostages and persons under trial
or convicted
New-York tribune., 1918-11-13
Measures Not Known

Action to be taken by the Allies
and the United States in event the
vessels were not prepared for sur
render at the expiration of the
allowed period was not indicated
tonight by officials. In such an
event only two courses were re-
garded as open--either extension
by agreement of the associated
governments Of the time period or
forcible seizure. Should forcible
seizure be necessary it was thought
resistance by the disorganized
crews would be g. hopeless enter
prise.
In discussing to-day the naval
terms Of the armistice Secretary
Daniels said the Allied and
American navies were prepared
fully to deal with any situation
that might arise. He said that
no intimation Of the reported de-
hance from the revolutionists had
come through any naval channels.

order" instead Of cor for any other
purpose"

There is no baser type of man than
the one who makes love to girl in

tremely sorry for girl who has been

But don't feel any false shame about

Did He Intend Goodness?

Dear Miss Fairfax: l am
stenographer, and about four
months ago l met a young man who
seemed different from all other
young men. He Is a soldier and has
been transferred from his former
post When he had been there but
a week he wrote me letter, which
answered. The day before he left
he asked me to give him a pin as
remembrance, which l did. The
second time he wrote his letter was
very businesslike. such as Enclosed
herewith you will tind-trusting that
the same will reach you safely, ]
am" | showed this second letter to
my girl friend, and she claims that a
letter like that is meant to sever all
connections. Will you kindly let me
know if this is so? l do not know
of any reason why he should wish
to do so. Should l write to him?
PERPLEXED.
Sometimes persons unaccustomed
to letter writing use stiff, business
like phrases from sheer awkward
ness. Perhaps that's the case with
your soldier. But if you mean that
his first letter was of different and
friendlier tone. then the second let
ter probably does indicate GOODNESS
or estrangement on his part, and /
think l should at least delay writing
until l heard from him again.

Turnips, Radishes and
Onions.

Now that the Christmas festivities
are over and most people are, per-
haps, more intent upon safely recov-
ering from overindulgence of their
appetites than in thinking about
what they shall have to eat, it might
seem more appropriate to be quot
ing prices of medicines than of mar
ket produce.
And yet, as the i'll effects OF
feasting are overcome, the returning
pangs of hunger force their way
into recognition and demand to be
appeased; hence our OFT repeated
story.
However, the story has a little
tinge of added pleasure this week
for it seems that the market quota
tons are just little more favorable
to the pocketbook of the house
wife than it has been heretofore
