UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER SAYS
 SEC'TY M'AD00
If German Government and People Mean This, Note
 All Right to Accept.

Chicago, Oct. 12.-The text of Germany's reply to President Wilson's inquiries was communicated by The Associated Press tonight to William G. McAdoo, Secretary of the Treas. ury, just before he delivered a Liber- ty loan address at a crowded mass meeting. Mr. McAdoo told the aud fence the text of the reply and added: What this government demands, bas- ed on President Wilson's messages and speeches, is. unconditional sur render and if this reply is authentic it means just that"
 Before telling the audience about the German note. MT. McAdoo said of the first German note week ago:
 Germany didn't send it's note to anyone except the United States.
 "Why? Because the President of the United States has formulated the principles of a permanent peace.
 Germany knows that when she ac- cepts~ the Presidents conditions-1 am not talking terms, but conditions, principles s,-when she is off the soil of every invaded land, it means un- conditional surrender.
 "What is unconditional surrender? It is when the fellow you are fight ing says T give in and take what you say 1 ought to take
 "The kaiser might as well surren- der now.
 "He is not deluded now.
 "He did think at one time that America wouldn't get into the war, but he knows better now"
 At this point the secretary alluded to the Associated Press dispatch briefly outlining the reported German terms.
 Then, after stating that he hoped the message would prove authentic he added:
 "I'u net discuss terms now. "Even if it is true that the kaiser ha, surrendered, that doesn't make it the less important that this loan be subscribed.
 ''It has to be, because we spent most of the money before we asKeo for it.
 "It is the highest patriotism, the highest act of love and honor for us to bring back in triumph those men who made peace possible. "Do you realize that two million 1 ,Jcys-my &an, and your ion-are over in France. When peace comes, don't we want our boys back just as qulcKly as we can get them. "lt will cost just as much to gel them back as it took to send them ever there. .,, Peace or no peace, the Fourtn l Liberty loan goes over. .,,.o of the Kaiser says, I am Wllllns to eyacuate and to accept your con, l ditions.' that is surrender or l doh know what is. .x.u
 "The point l am making is tnls I America has stood peace on tue foundations of justice and democracs and elimination of the fostering sores which have caused all the wars II Ea,rone and we never will accep' 1 neoce until we get it as Amerlcs l wants it. , 1.,,.
