Amsterdam, oct. 1.-THE Cologne

suggested evacuation of German occu-
pied territories, gives testimony as to

The newspaper says:
What are Siegfried positions and

is that the German front maintain
continuity. Even though, confiding in
President Wilson'S love of peace, We
consent to the evacuation OF occupied
regions, then our battle-prepareo

for the good roads issue which is to
be voted on at Tuesdays election.

Joy the fruits of the wise action of
the state in providing easy trans

The federation's executive board
sees clearly that these roads will be
provided at no cost to the property

mously adopted
Whereas, The proposed 100000

with authority during the in
term of meetings of that body, do
heartily endorse the $50 200, 900
