German Losses

Terrible punishment has been inflicted on the
storming troops of the Germans. They have
been slaughtered in numbers that BATTLES under
standing Both British and French have applied
the principle of atrition in its most rigorous
form. It has been their fixed determination to
make the Germans pay with human blood for
every foot of ground they won.
The human wreckage that is being carted
back to Germany is appalling. Small wonder
that the general staff is trying to take care of
as many wounded as it possibly can in hospitals
on Belgian and French soil. The spirit of no
peopl eeven if it has been dulled has been that
of the Teutons in the last four years, can remain
unaffected by the knowledge that thousands are
being killed daily and other thousands torn by
shot and shell, smashed out of all semblance of
the human shape, are left grovelling on battle
fields or rushed to hospitals. The most resolute
spirit quails before such slaughter.
The gains which Germany has made at the
expense of thousands of her men are inconse-
quential compared with the price she paid. HUI
man life cannot be restored and human wreck
age cannot be repaired into highly efficient ma
chinery. For years to come, German will suffer
from the slaughter which the Kaiser permitted
on the northern and southern end of the western
line.

The Height of Optimism
BY HAL POD
ay soon is coming

A great day soon is coming
That will set this old world free,
When to Yankee Doodle's humming
Our boys march to victory.
The day we long have prayed for
That will end this reign of sin,
Is the day our boys go marching
Through the streets OF old Berlin.
Death be dealt unto the Hun,
The worlds we'll rid of such as he.
His Judgment day will surely come.
All hail that day of Liberty.
Thus will end the tyrant's rule,
Thus will end the battles din,
When our Yankee boys 60 marching
Through the streets Of old Berlin.
We will bleed and sacrifice
For the land we love so we'll.
We are glad to pay the price
With our lives in Europe's hell.
Soon that day Of days shall come.
Songs of praise the world will sing.
When our Yankee boys go marching
Through the streets Of old Berlin.

Schwab's Spirit and Motto

Charles M. Schwab-a former laborer who
to the rank Of great captain in the steel in
dustry-has been appointed director-general of
shipbuilding. He is on the job now and here's
what he said when he took over the task that has
baffled some Of the nations leaders:
Everything that is in me I'm going to give
to this thing. It is every ones duty to help I
am not talking the flippant patriotism that so
many talk. mean it. don't know what can
do, but am filled with pep and optimism and
I'm going to do my BEST I'm going to build
ships. I'm not politician and don't know di-
plomacy, but I'm going to do the work."
At last the country has the man for the
place, adequately endowed by nature with ele-
ments Of success and trained by experience and
hard knocks to do big things.
Everything that is in me I'm going to give
to this thing"
That's his motto and it has the right ring.
None of the" am willing to do my Bit" but the
giving of all that he has is his offering to the ma
ton. Schwab rose from laborer to industrial
captain because he gave all he had to the immed-
late task before him. Now, the nation his
country and yours, is to be the recipient of all
that his motto embraces.
Schwab has the spirit that will bring order
out of the chaos and give to this country and our
associates in arms the ships that are so tragcal-
ly needed. The Schwab spirit is contagious. It
will communicate itself to all the ramifcations of
the shipbuilding program, inspiring officials and
workers with the conviction that they will put
across" the job.
1T is every ones duty to help says the iron
master. He enlists all of US in the cause. No
citizen is so lowly that he is not an integral and
vital part in the great war machinery that is
necessary to wreck the German war lords.
Schwab knows that the work of one man. no mat
ter how great his qualifications and how self
sacrificing his patriotism, avails little The
cooperative effort Of every man, woman and
child in the United States pledged to the task of
winning the war, is the prerequisite of success.
After all, man can only help" A we'll

FEW FOOD THOUGHTS

The ordinary bankroll nowadays
makes about as much noise as a man
with jewsharp in the midst of boil
er explosion. and man with a five
buck bill who goes out looking for
food is about as well off as though he
hadn't cent and owed somebody else
five.
Mr. Hoover mentioned only the
elimination of the waistline. If he
said anything about increasing the
price of the reduced portions, nobody
heard him except the restaurant men.
If things keep on at their present
rate the American people vii: depart
from their usual custom soon and will
not be eating more than twice as
much as is good for them. Double
chins will disappear. The shortening
of belts will save many hundreds OF
miles of leather for war purposes and
a lot of people will be enjoying good
health and will not know what is the
matter with them.

FOR GAsTRONOMY
To those who have been taking the
war portion apart to see what makes
it tick, it is very apparent that the
restaurant proprietors in metropolitan
localities are intensely patriotic. In
fact, some of them are SO patriotic
that in certain cabarets food is the
only thing that is not served with the
meals.
Some of them were so quick to re-
spond to the call of Food Director
Hoover that they anticipated him by
about five years. While Mr.. Hoover
was still in Belgium the war portion
was in full swing. Some of the older
Inhabitants are of the belief that the
cafe war portion is not an outgrowth
of this war at all, but hangover from
the Civil war. At any rate, the war
portion is not new thing. Ten years

heard that the Civil war had ended at
Appamatox Court House. The cafe
proprietors are not great readers.

LONDON FEARS HUN PLOT TO
 TRICK ALLIES Rumors of Ex-Kaiser's = =Il- tention to Return Home
 Cause Great Stir.
SOLDIERS WANT
 HIM EXTRADITED
Diplomats Believe Some thing Brewing in Germany
 in Direction of Plot.

London, Nov. 19-The rumo-S that William Hohenzollern, the former German Emperor may possibly re- turn to Germany as supported by the Berlin Lokal Anzeigers' hint that he would not be refused an entry to that country, have created a considerable stir here. They are featured by sev- eral of the morning newspapers as creating an uncertain. situation which is rendered more doubtful by ac- counts of the activity of German pro. pagandists in several countries.
 The fear mainly is that the former emperor sooner or later would become the center of a react<onary movement in Germany, when the present revo- lutionary storm has blown over, and the advocates of this vIew consequent ly fear his return to his former em- pire. On the other hand, the fact of the former ruler placing himself or being placed in the hands of the new rulers of Germany would be welcomed in other quarters. These rulc:s, the | Morning Post argues, should .e aoie to execute judgment upon him and in so doing would only be acting as fit ting instruments of justice.
 Related advices from The Hague ] show that the Dutch socialists reiter- i ated in parl1am ent on Friday last their objections to his presence in Holland and demanded that he be deported | A despatch to the Daily Mail from | The Hague reports that the German soldiers council in Antwerp on Thursday last, passed a resolution that the soldiers and workmen s council in Berlin demand the extra dition of the former emperor and the former Crown Prince, as we'll as cer- tain generals.
 The Daily Express sees the possi- i bility of plot to trick the Allies and create a federation far exceeding il strength and resources of the former German Empire. This newspape. l contends that the former emperor is | back of Chancellor Ebert, former Chancellor Maximilian of Baden ant l Field Marshal von Hindenburg, anc 1t lays emphasis upon the fact tha the emperor signed no formal abdi cation and issued no valedictory mess age.

SOLF WANTS TO
 CONTROL RICH ALSACE MINES
Asks That TerEsls Be Fur ther Modified and Old
 Boundaries to Hold.

London, Monday, Nov 1S-Ger- many wants the terms of the armis- tice modified so that she can have intercourse with the territory on the left bank of the Rhine as before the armistice, Dr. Solf the foreign secre- tary, says in a wireless despatch re ceived here. The message is ad- dressed to Governments of the United States, Great Britain, France and Italy
 In view of the close relations be- tween the country west of the Rhine and the remainder of Germany, th& preservation of which is necessary ito the continued peaceful develop ment of Germany" pr. soIf asks the modification of some dozen points concerning this region.
 For instance, he asks permission for German owners to exploit as heretofore the coal, potash and iron ore mines and the general free use of the Rhine for transport within the, old boundaries of the German Elm pire.
 The foreign secretary also asks per mission for free navigation by way
 
 provisioning of Germany; the con tinuation of industrial pursuits on the left bank of the Rhine for the use of the remainder of the Germans and free railway traffic in occupied terri tory.
 The old frontier of the empire, in c1uding Luxemburg, Dr. Solf suggests, is to be regarded as the customs boundary and custom duties are to be levied by Germany. Dr. Solf declares that without these notifications Germany will advance toward more or less Bolshevist condi- tions which might become dangerous | to neighboring states. He repeats the previous protest ! against the surrender of means of transport and protests against "con- | tinuation of the blockade" He con- 1 cludes by saying that attempts by | German delegates to discuss these matters at Spa had been unsuccessful l because the representatives there of the Allied countries lacked the neces- ] sary powers.

They say that news has been kept from them and that for days prior to the signing of the armistice they had heard no details of what was going on.
 Lieutenant William Schmidt, one of the German officers, toh5 the Ameri- cans their entrance into the war un- questionably turned the tide against Germany In his opinion there would have been a different story to tell if America had kept out. He said the Germans generally did not hold a grudge against America or Americans although some blamed the Americans for their defeat.

Delegates from all the soldiers councils met in the Reichstag cham Der In Berlin on Friday to discuss the institution of the Red Guard, accord ng to advices received here. The proceedings were enlivened by diver gencies of opinion, some advocating the Red Guard as civil protection and others opposing the plan as implying a lack of confidence in the soldiers.
 Friederich Ebert, the premier, frankly said that there was no ne- cessity for the Red Guard. He said:
 T have no anxiety for the new gov ernment because it is sustained by the confidence of the masses.
 we have received news that the troops were orderly when the armls- tice was declared. In the back areas, however it was different Many cases of haste to return home are reported. In Baden and Wurttemburg the troops streaming back from the front con- stitute a great danger to security. Ne gotiations are in progress to obtain food from America, for food is what we need.
