All day long the roads to Luxem-

troops, flying regimental flags. The
advance, with clockwork precision,
reached the assigned detectives early
and the troops went into camp.
Thousands of released prisoners on
the verge of starvation, streamed
back into the American camps. They
included Russians, Rumanians,
Italians, Belgians, French and a few
British and Americans. They were
picked up in trucks and sent to the
rear.

carefully planned. Engineers had
painted signs, Indicating the towns

by j. w. T. Mason, United Press War

NEW YORK, Nov. 1S.-The demo-
cratic movement in Germany may be
seriously impeded and perhaps fatal
ly handicapped IL American and the
Iallies undertake to satisfy the hunger
demands of the German people.
The world cannot deliberately let
Germany starve, but without permit
ting famine to exist, the democratic
nations should compel the Germag
people to know what partial hunger
means for a long time to come The
Germans at home have not had the
full taste of war Their territory has
not been invaded, except for a small
part of east Prussia, and they know
the personal meaning of the conflict
! chiefly because of food deprivations.
=, The German militarists are careful
! ly watching for an opportunity to re-
turn to power. The fact that AL
sace-Lorraine and Prussian Poland
are to be taken from the German en-
pire is not preventing the militarists
| from counting upon the future terri.
| torial expansion of Germany through
| the annexation Of Austria. The Ger.
man people have not shown any spirit
| of conversion to pacifiSm, except such
as has been forced on them. The
new government at Berlin has not re-
moved single high militarist from
! his post Of authority.
If. under this condition, the Ger
man nation is fattened by plentiful
supplies of food. there is good rea-
son to believe the militaristic spirit
; will be revived. and the German peo-
| pie will again become world men
| ace. Hunger Is good tonic for Ger
man democracy. Hunger for many
months ought to be enforced upon
| the German people. Not starvation,
but hunger. Enough food should be
withheld from the Germans to cause
them to taste a little of the suffering
| they have brought on the world. It
ought not to be a question of how
much food should be sent to Germany
! but how little.
The German threat TO hand over
their government to the Bolsheviki
elements unless their food ultimatum
is accepted, should not be allowed to

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-Senate

Senator Norris, Nebraska, intro

The eight committees are finance,
foreign relations, military affairs,
naval affairs, appropriations, inter
state commerce, judiciary and post

bility for formulation of reconstruc'
ton legislation.
Vigorous efforts have been made
to prevent Norris going ahead with
this rule fight since he gave notice
last Friday of his intentions. But
Norris refused to listen and today
had the resolution referred to the
rules committee, which is controlled
by democrats. Ordinarily this com
mittee would at once pigeon-hole a
rule proposed by a republican, but

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-Had the

would have had a long range gun
shooting much farther than the leu

gun the United States proposed to
make would have had range of
probably one hundred miles, but
whether it will be developed now

awaits President Wilson in Europe.
The French call him the man of vic
tory, the man Of peace, and the man
who won liberty for mankind. He
has become more than a parsonage.

far to indicate that President Wilson
is going abroad, but the belief that
he plans to make the trip, appears
to be firmly fixed in Europe.)
The actual peace conference, it is
predicted here, will be shorter than
generally thought possible. At the
preliminary sessions, the. allies will
agree on just terms to Germany and

remain for the Germans to accept
these and discuss the details.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-War de-
partment authorities are giving con-
sideration to the second phase Of de-
mobilization-return Of divisions from
abroad.
1t is estimated 1t will be some time
in January before the government
completes its task of freeing 100000
men in this country. hence it is doubt
full now il any appreciable movement
of troops from over there will COM
mence before that work is done. In
timations have been current that the
department proposed to bring few
divisions home by Christmas, but Cen
eral March thus far has not taken the
public into his confidence on this
point.
The New England division, mention,
ed as a possible Christmas present
for the nation, is named in unofficial
messages as being in the army of oc-
cupation. This group, now reported to
be ten divisions, may have to be in
creased later and it is quite likely that
the units now engaged therein will
be changed from time to time just as
in battle.
The work OF freeing men in this
country will be hurried as much as
possible.
The rehabilitation of development
battalions, the first task undertaken,
is now in progress.
When the Rainbow division comes
home, it will have to be distributed all
over the country, because Of its nation
al character. This national tour idea
may be coincident with the home
coming loan" to be launched early
next year, as the fifth war loan.
Navy Discharges.

men-regulars and reserves-can now
apply for discharge from the navy,
Secretary Daniels declared today.
For the present, men with urgent
business calls or desire to return to

discharges.
Daniels did not indicate whether he
has raised the limit set few days
ago of discharge of $4,000 men within
the next month or two.
