SINCERITY OF
ENEMY IS PUT
TO final TEST
Wilson's S Answer Given Cen
eral Approval of British
Press.

LONDON, Oct 25.-Newspapers
here continue the discussion of the
German proposals looking to an arm
istice and peace and the latest address
made by Prince Maximilian, the Ger
man imperial chancellor. The Daily
Telegraph says:
prince Maximilian appears to be
uncertain what Justice means. For
the agony they brought upon innocent
people; for the heartless barbarity
with which they treated subject pop.
ulations; for the wanton destruction of
sacred edifces and historic monu-
ments; for the merciless abandonment
of steamship passengers; for the tor
pedoing of hospital ships-for all these
things, justice demands clear and
adequate penalty.
For the sake of the future we must
carry on our 'ampaign with indomi-
table pertinacity until the recreant
nation of Germany has learned her
lesson. 1t must disavow its past mis-
deeds and it must show determination
to live more cleanly hereafter"
The Daily Graphic says: Prince
Macmillan has outlined new consti-
tuition for Germany, but the world Is
little concerned with the internal con-
stitution of Germany. What It Is con-
cerned with is Germany's power for
external mischief"
Must Be Peace Of Justice.
'The peace treaties of Brest Litovsk
and Bucharest illustrate the peace OF
violence which Germany has been en-
deavoring to impose upon Europe"
says the Daily News. "She failed and
must pay the price of her ruthlessness.
Peace of justice involves justice to
countries which Germany has despoil-
ed and outraged and demands guaran-
tees before she can be admitted into
the community of nations. Prince
Maximilian's description of the change
in the government does not suggest
a clean-cut break with kaiserism.
''If the allies grant an armistice, it
will be upon such conditions as will
not only secure the military supremacy
of the allies, but will apply a very
searching test of who is in real con-
troll in Germany"
The Daily Express says: prince
Maximilian's subterfuges hint that his
offer of mock independence to Alsace
Lorraine will certainly bring not peace
but a continuous rigorous sweeping
of the sword
Referring to the announcement of
A. J. Balfour, secretary of state for
foreign affairs, that the German col
onies can never be returned, the Daily
Express says:
Germany has always exploited her
colonies. She has been ready to tor
ture and persecute in order to exploit
them more successfully. Former Ger
man colonies will be no longer ex-
plotted. They will be regarded as a
to be developed, first for
the advantage of their inhabitants,
and second, for the advantage of the
whole world"
Masterpiece Of Diplomacy.
Commenting upon President Will
sons note to Germany, the Daily
News says:
1.-The imperial chancellor's note left
matters in suspense, but the presi-
dents takes them where they should
be. The sincerity of the German
peoples desire for peace, is today
brought to the final test. If the Ger
mans accept the presidents terms.
there is no reason why fighting should

dImlSIlCe looking toward peace at any
price. Increasing pressure by the Ger
man people to end the war before an
other winter sets in, was considered
by others as daily making it more diff
ficult for the government to do other
than allow the terms of an armistice
to be laid down at least.
Prepare Armistice Plans.
Details of an armistice can be ar
ranged prior to the reaching Of COM
plete agreement on terms of peace it
was pointed out that such details may
be announced while the basis of peace
is being worked out
The conditions involved in an armis-
tice to be applied to the long extent
Of western, Italian, and other fronts,
to naval preparations, including activ-
tiles of submarines, to making of mu-
nitions and supplies, to the sett.> up
of guarantees and safeguards against
resumption OF hostilities with any ad-
vantage to the enemy, are so numer-
Gus that officials reclined to specu-
late on their nature.
The part which the United States
will take in arranging the armistice
details can be handled by representa-
tives OF the army and naval establish
ments now in Europe. Should politi-
cal questions be involved, representa-
tives of the President will be available
to meet with the entente premiers.
Comment of London and Paris news
papers, rejecting the attitude of the
peoples of England and France, and
in many cases that of officials, on the
reply OF President Wilson, was con-
sidered most satisfactory today by Of
ficials. Whatever doubts as to the
attitude that would be taken by those
countries on the action Of the Presi-
dent in transmitting the German re-
quest has been removed entirely by a
reading of the foreign comment.

YANkS IMPROVE
POSITIONS ON
THREE POINTS
Enemy Driven From Bois
d'Ormont = Important
Ridges Taken.
(By Associated Press)

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY
NORTH OF VERDUN, Oct. 25.-The
American troops, despite strong Ger
man artillery fire, improved their pc
sitions at three important points, east
and west of the Meuse, during the
night.
East of the Meuse the Americans
drove the enemy from the eastern
edge of the Boise d'Ormont, gaining
their objective.
In the region of Grandpre west Of
the Meuse, the Americans Strengthened
out their lines and captured several
important ridges. Between Rappes
wood and Bantheville wood the Amer
lean line was extended despite stub
born resistance.
Capture BattIepIane.
Americans captured an immense
German armored battleplane Wednes-
day north of Brieulles. The machine
was virtually intact but the pilot and
gunners made their escape. 1t is
presumed that the battleplane was
downed a day or TWO ago by American
aviators Just when the machine
landed is unknown. Infantry forces
found the monster.
From east of the Meuse, German
artillery endeavored to protect the
plane but the American guns let down
counter-ire upon the enemy gun
emplacements. When lull came.
American troops hauled the plane to
safety.
A number of valuable instruments
and two machine guns were captured.
The battle plane was equipped with
a bomb dropping device and had
gun and sighting arrangement SO
fixed that the gunner can see to shoot
beneath him. This gun was
for firing on roads. So far as is known
this is the first plane of this type cap
tured by Americans. Half of the fus-
ilage was covered with quarter inch
armor

That the supreme war council already

Exchange of opinion between Wash

that reason the details may be made

SONNGh CO ~ iiON ~ TSGIS"
LONDON, Thursday, Oct 24-It is
understood that President Wilson's
latest note to Germany is approved by
the allies and represents, in a general
sense, their views of the situation. 1t
has been enormously assumed that
the allies have been leaving the brunt
of the negotiations to fall on Mr.. Will
son but as matter of fact, when the
central powers elected to approach
one of the belligerents singly, the
others stood aside in the preliminary
stages of the negotiation.
Now that the president has con-
sented to submit the request for an
armistice to the other belligerents,
there is no question that individual
action will give place to definitely
concerted conduct of the situation and
that the recommendation of the allies
naval and military commanders will
constitute the joint terms of the as
sociated powers.
U. s. REPRESENTATIVES ACROSS
WASHINGTON, Oct 25. Colonel
E. M. House, personal representative
of President Wilson and spokesman
of the state department, and Admiral
William S. Benson, chief of naval Op-
erations, have arrived in France to
represent the United States in the
consideration of Germany's plea for an
armistice and peace negotiations.
The fact that Col. House left for
Europe several days before President
Wilson's final reply to Germany was
dispatched is further proof that every
step of the presidents negotiations
with Germany has been taken in full
accord with the entente governments,
1t also is taken to indicate that de-
cision to transmit the German plea
to the allies under certain conditions
was reached even before the last note
from Berlin was received.
Col. House long has been recognized
as the logical selection by the presi-
dent to represent him in such con-
ferences as now are to be held. Not
only is he closer to the president prob
ably than any living man, but he is
believed to be peculiarly fitted for the
task at hand. He has made frequent
trips to Europe since the war began in
1914. comforting with leaders in the
leading belligerent nations and more
than year ago he was charged by the
president with gathering data for use
at the peace conference. Col. House
selected as his assistant in this work
a number of experts in certain friends
and a great mass of information has
been gathered. E1uch of it has been
assembled at the headquarters of the
American Geographical Society in
New York and on his last trip to that
city after the first German note was
received, President Wilson examined
the data in company with Col House
