Paris. Oct. lS.-Lille, Douai, Os-
tend, three great cities have been
delivered from the enemy. This
is the most glorious day for the
allies since the battle OF the Marine,
and it fittingly terminates Won
derful battle of three months which
was opened by General Mangin's
counter offensive July Is.
Many cities have been liberated
and hundreds of square miles OF ter
ritory taken. The results have been
splendid. But the victory in Bel
GUM is not all. The British south
of lie Cateau have broken into the
German positions and now threaten
the Hunding line. The entire Ger
man defense system eastward to the
Meuse is in peril.
AS the first result OF the forcing
OF the Germans back to the Ghent-
Journal -Valenciennes line during
yesterdays fighting, has been to
~ the enemy's defenses before
vnev have been able to reach them
further south. Without eXagger-
alton, it may be said that the pros
poets OF the future are even more
important than the actual results
attained, splendid though they be.
The road to Brussels is open Ac-
cording TO latest advices, the French
and Belgian armies are advancing
rapidly towards Bruges and Ghent,
The capture of OStend makes it pos
sible to land reinforcements and
throw powerful forces against the
extreme right OF the German army.
Paris, Oct. lS.-General Won Ar
Minis army is no longer strong
enough to sustain operations on the
extended front from the French to
the Dutch frontier. Therefore it IS
reasonable to expect that its march
across Belgium will be rapid, and
that King Albert will re-enter his
capital (Brussels) earlier than was
hoped.
At the very moment the Flanders
battle was won another offensive
was started in the direction OF Hlr-
son and Nervins by Anglo-Amer-
ican and French forces. The object
is TO take the armies of the crown
prince under shelter of the Hunding
line on the flank and condemn them
to an early RETREAT toward the Ar
dennes. across the front OF the
powerful allied right wing.
The way back to Germany lies
through two bottle necks separated
bv the Ardennes-the one between
Liege and Dinant and the other be-
etween Montmedy and Nerdun. The
latter is already partly blocked.
Whit it may be admitted that the
Germans are fighting well and con-
ducting their retreat with great skill
sober military opinion in Paris IS
that the great German military ma
chine is in danger OF collapse at no
very distant date.
London. Oct. lS.-Some OF the
German garrison failed to get away
from Ostend. The men were
A.anded over to the allied forces by
Vie civilian population. :,
In the area between Bruges and
the sea, large captures OF Germans
are not expected, as the sector has
been lightly held by the enemy;

How Was the Last War Fund Spent? ):
TT is fair question-and it is fairly answered in the
detailed and itemzed reports that have been pub
lished in the newspapers of every town and city of
the land.
You never saw it? Then ask at the nearest Red
Cross Chapter, wrte for the Red Cross wants you
to know where your money went
They say that Red Cross supplies have way of
coming through on time
Italy surely has found us not wanting in prompt
ness when her great trial came
:. And Roumania- they said no allied nation could
get through to help her dire need.
But the Red Cross found uuay.
It's not always cheap way-"Needs must .
costs money. But did you give that money to be
saued-or to sope lives? Are you not willing to pay
five dollars fifty to bring something of comfort to
a war racked tortured mortal who but you would
surely die?
And Of one thing you may be sure. Not
penny Of that Hundred Million has gone for anything
but War Relief
In the Red Cross there is no high saaried bureau
cracy, extravagant administration expense All of
the higher officials and nine tenths of the workers
unpaid volunteers
The cost of raising and collecting the last War
Fund was about one-haf of one per cent. than
; covered by the banking interest on the money.
= Your Red Cross needs another hundred million to
tighten just little Of the awful load of misery lover
there" Your share is all that you can give-and
s then little more. :

WAR TAX TO RUN
FOR YEARS YET

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 16.-
America will be paying war taxes un-
til 1925. Treasury plans as outlined
today show that the heavy burden OF
taxation must continue for at least
six years more.
The end of the actual fighting has
cut the 1918 cost by Sc 00O,0 900 900,
Secretary McAdoo announced, but
immediate war expenses will contin-
ne to come. 1t is for these that the
nation will have to provide funds, ac-
cording to officials.
Facing the treasury for the present
fiscal year were expenditures of $751;
000,000,000 for the fiscal year ending
June 1920, $5,OO0,OOO,OOO, and for the
next four years the government ex-
penses will range around $4,000, 0OO,-
OO0.
After January I, 1925, expenditures
should settle down to approximately
$2,0OO,O0O,000 a year, officials esti-
mated.
This figure, however, will depend
somewhat on amortization plans de-
veloped to pay off the great bond is
sues which mature after 1880.
During the next year the govern
ment will be liquidating contractural
obligations incident to the war. In
addition, it must meet the expenses
OF interests on loans and expanded
government credit caused by the re-
construction program.

THE PLOT THICKENS.

Last week the Herald was handed
an item relative to a shot steer. The
item was published. This week we
receive an unsigned communication
as follows:
A Bad Mistake.
1.-TWO boys of respectable families
were accused of shooting a steer while
hunting Thursday. Now I know the
steer was not shot Thursday as there
was bunch of men coon hunting on
Friday night in the same place. The
steer was yet warm when its hide was
taken off Saturday morning Evidence
is strong that the steer was shot Fri
day night"
This communication should have
been signed as an evidence of good
faith. The fifty cents sent with the
item will be returned to the sender
if they will call at the Herald office.
