Advices have been received in Pen

of the State Council of Defense, which
held it's regular monthly meeting in
the executive offices Of the state cap

Several very important matters have
been called to. the attention of the To-

which is the work of supervising nom

the support of war measures Of the

The recent order of the fuel admin

state to forego Joy riding" on Sum-
days has been taken up by the state
council of defense, according to re-
ports received here. Statements from
the advisory board are to the effect
that in many counties in the state the
request has not been obeyed and res

calling on county councils to actively

WASHINGTON DUBIOUS AS
TO GERMANY'S SINCERITY

Washington, Oct. 6.-Germany's new
est peace offer proposing an armistice
while the president considers and con-
veys to the allies a proposal on the
basis of the terms laid down by the
president himself, is recognized as the
next step in continuing the efforts of
German statesmen to save something
from the wreckage of their dream of
world domination.
No one in Washington even as much
as gives a thought to any proposal
that the victorious troops of Great
Britain, France, Italy and the United
States should halt in armistice while
the discussion is conducted.
There might be an armistice Of the
same nature as given Bulgaria, an
armistice Of unconditional surrender.
1t is noted that while seeking peace
the Germans are going on with their
old Hun-like procedure Of destroying
and ravishing cities.
The suggestion is also made that the
peace proposal may have been timed
with a view to affect subscriptions to
The Fourth Liberty Loan. However.
4 is not believed that Americans will

| An American Port, Oct. 6-"With

the collapse Of Bulgaria, Turkey will
automatically sue for peace. The

man support. w hen I left General

that the Germans were deserting their

This is the opinion of Charles w.

United States from Palestine sin the
fall of Jerusalem. Whitehair just land

But the flight OF General Liman Won
Sanders is only the last move in
what British officers told me they be-

Turkish troops by their German off,
GERS.
German contingent OF troops have
long ago been Withdrawn from Pal

was believed that the German officers
were gradually being withdrawn; Ger

drawn. Turkey was being left to face
the music alone.
'The Turkish soldiers are sick OF
the war. They are delighted when
captured. I saw many of them on
all the fronts in Palestine. They are
half starved and glad to get a good
square meal.
"In the last big drive the Germans
attempted against the British in the
Jordan valley. the British captured $50
Germans, and their Turkish contin-

back them up at all.
Turk Soldiers Beg on Streets.
Conditions in Turkey today are alb

deprecated over 80 per cent. There
is little or no food; the Turkish SOL

Entente Powers Make Progress
On All Fronts and Drive
Enemy Back
DOUIA ALMOST
ENVELOPED
Cambria Seems Doomed and
Germans are Preparing to
Retreat From Coast
(By Associated Press)


While Germany and Austria-Hun-
gary are clamoring for peace the en-
tente governments are pressing for
ward to further victories on all
fronts.
Officially no cognizance has yet been
taken of the Teuton proposals, as the
President is not yet in receipt of them.
Unofficial opinion indicates, however,
that the request will fall on deaf ears
and that no peace is possible with the
Teutonic Allies except unconditional
surrender.
In Belgium the enemy is gradual
ly being pushed eastward in anticipa-
tion of withdrawal, he is continuing to
make ready by removing guns from
territory adjacent to the North Sea
coast.
South of Arras to Verdun the Ger
mans are hard pressed by British,
| Americans, French and Italian forces.
Douai is almost enveloped and Cam
brai is further endangered through
| the capture of a nearby village where
| more than 1000 Germans were made
| prisoner.
The allies made further gains in the
Macedonian theatre.
In Champagne the French and Am
ericans continued their attacks ana

was endangered, to retire on his left
flank and withdraw hurriediy from
part of the territory east of the re-
gion of Monts
French troops on the sector west OF
the Suippe, pursuing the enemy rear
guards, reached at night the heights
800 metres southeast of Moronvilliers.
South Of Monthois the French broke up
German counter attacks against the
Croix des Soudans and maintained their
gains. The enemy with heavy rein
forcements, disputed the terrain on the
front between Arfeuil and Monthois
with extreme stubbornness.
American troops attacked between
the Meuse and the Argonne along an
extended front. The advance at some
points has reached more than a mile
and severa villages have been taken.
Great tongues Of flame were shooting
up from the City Of Douai and more
fires have been started in Cabmrai.
The Germans also have applied the
torch to many villages in the Cambrai
area.
The allied troops gained all of the
Flanders ridge and advanced nine miles
on front of 25 miles. Ypres and Dix
nude were removed from the enemy
menace and the river Lye Joined be-
tween Armentires and Wervicq.
The German defense is most stub
born, especially on the American right,
but on the center and left the Amerl-
cans are successfully following up their
earlier gains.
In the region north of ST. Quentin
the British and French continue their
vigorous pressure after having cap
tured important points from the Ger
mans in hard combats Friday. Around
Beaurevoir and De Catelet the British
have moved forward for substantial
gains, while near Chardonvert the
French have taken an important
height.

FARMERS ARE
MEETING CALL
Government Depends on Them
to Make Fourth Loan
Success

While Liberty Loan headquarters
have been turned over to the use of
the Emergency Relief Committee, this
does not mean that Liberty Loan
work has stopped in this county, ac-
cording to j. NJ. Muldon. county chair
man, who said last night:
THE situation at this time is such
that the committee does not feel JUS
titled in making an active city cam
paign, but this does not mean that
the members of the Fourth Liberty
Loan committee are idle by any means.
THE committee realizes that the
most important thing just now is aid
ing in the relief work, rendering the
use of our offices and doing all possi-
Bile individually to help in the work.
But the machinery of the Loan
committee has not stopped. W9~are
keeping closely in touch with all parts
of tn ecounty, where we feel that the
work must be even greater than 1t
was before to bring the necessary re-
suits.
There are times that come into the
life of every man and every nation
that show the metal of which they
are made. This time has come in

ing in touch with all chairmen in the
county,
The Treasury Department is de-
pending upon the farmer to put the
Fourth Liberty Loan triumphantly
over the top in the South, just as he
did in the Third Loan, when the per-
centage of subscriptions from the
rural districths was very high, the
farmer subscribing to by far the
greater share of the issue.
The card system to be used in this
campaign will enable the committees
and the government to keep careful
check on the subscriptions made by
every man in the country, and by
every occupation. The government is
anxious that every citizen own at least
a few Liberty bonds. and those who
are shown on the record not to have
invested at all will be especially So
licited.
Reports from the county chairmen
of Liberty Loan committees to w. c.
Wardlaw. district executive chairlAan
and st. Elmo Massengale, director of
publicity, indicate absolute optimism
for the Fourth loan, despite the higher
quotas assigned every territory.
"ONr people have given their sons
and brothers to this war;" they say.
DO you think they are not going to
back up the boys with their dollars 2"
"Our Southern farmers, too, have
been taught the value Of bonds as an
investment, too. The other campaigns
were campaigns of education, but this
isn't so necessary now. Every man
who has a bond Or two tucked away
in his Strong box or in the bank is
anxious to put a few of the Fourth
issue beside them"

With the relief organization running
smoothly and the various committees

tasks, the influenza epidemic is rapidly
subsiding, according to reports from
headquarters last night.
Fewer new cases were reported yes

High praise was bestowed upon the
volunteer workers who have entered
SO fully into the suppression OF ths
disease and the health authorities state
that but for their assistance it would
have been quite impossible to cope
with the situation.
There is still need for nurses and an
urgent appeal is made for additional
volunteers to assist in caring for the
sick.
