PEACE STIMULUS.

The continued victories of the allied armies
on the western front are not the only factors shat
are stimulating Germany's desire for peace. They
IN themselves are enough to make the enemy
tired Of war, but there are other DEVELOPMENTS
which serve to emphasize the doom which hangs
over the central powers. The constant stream Of
American troops pouring into France, the S.
000,000,000 war revenue bill and the SIS 900, 000,-
600 Liberty Lean portend certain disaster to the
Hun.
And on top Of these comes the news that the
shipyards Of the United States broke all records
in September with a production of 369, $50 dead
weight tons Of shipping, which exceeds the out
put for August by 30,017 lightweight tons. The
production of British yards last month was 23l,-
638 lightweight tons, making total for the two
countries Of 600,968 tons. If there remained with
the German government any lingering hope for
the effectiveness Of its submarine campaign to
destroy allied shipping and stop the transport Of
troops, it is dissipated by this monumental rec
ord.
It is not difficult, in the light of these sign-
fioant developments, to discern the motive back
Of the peace proposals. Germany sees the hand
writing on the wall and realizes that her fate
is sealed. There is nothing left for her but ab-
ject surrender if she cannot obtain a fraudulent

DRESS RANKS FORWARD

Sir Eric Geddes, first lord of the British adj
miralty, makes the startling declaration that the
U-boat menace is greater today than it ever was
He urges America to turn out destroyers and
anti-submarine craft to the limit And adds:
There is no greater need today than the need
for the utmost naval effort against the greatest
offensive of the submarine which is now ma
terializing."
It has been the opinion of the British admiral
y for some time past that Germany was con-
strueting large fleet of submarines of greater
strength and sailing radius than any which nave
yet appeared for the sole purpose of breaking up
Americas rescue of the allies.
Germany with her forces in hand from Russia
the Balkan regions and Finland and with seri-.
GUS interruption of our trans Atlantic transpor-
tation would be different Germany from The
peace chattering, hunbled Germany Of today
She must realize as everybody else does that the
decision is being made on the western front to
get all her power well in hand there she must
have time.
We may live to learn that during this palaver
about armistice we were standing on the brink
Of an abyss. Let US not take our minds and eff
Forts off unconditional surrender for one minute.
On to Berlin.

A GREAT DECLARATION.
Buy bonds.

What Germany wanted, whether she has a
government of and by her people or by her au-
tocrats, was time.
One Of the greatest things that Wilson ever
got off is his declaration that the process Of
evacuation and conditions Of an arrnistioe must
be left to the judgment of the military advisors.
VIII Foch and Eiaig, Pershing and Allenby give
the Hun time? They'll give the Hun bayonats,
BOMBS, tanks gas, grenades and hundred diff

Take Place
In Second Line Defense
In Great Numbers

Alton, Ill, June 27.-women of
this vicinity claim to lead the nation
in taking their places in the second
line Of defense" On virtually every
farm in this section the women have
taken over the milking and all other
light work and many Of them, for
merly active socially, may be seen
riding c%ultivators in the corn fields.
The gaps made when young men
Joined the colors could be filled in no
other way. the wives and daughters Of
the farmers declare.
While some help from the cities
may be obtained, workers unframed
in driving teams, stacking hay and
shocking wheat are of little value as
compared with the farm women, Corn
nov may be plowed without plants
becoming covered and travellers are
greatly impressed by the number of
women guiding plows through the
rows. with the skill OF men. Despite
the heavy work involved in wheat
harvesting many women will assist in
that task this year. 49,

quartermaster's stores here in. big
automobile trucks. If the distance is
long, the trucks come out one day
and return the next: il it is short, the
truck drivers are always in a hurry
so they can return to camp the same
day.
Not fong ago, when the 144th field
artillery California Grizzlies) was
camped at ,Oceanside, the trucks ar
rived while the regiment was at
church services. A detail was called
out of church and sent down to help
unload the trucks. ~ -,
The supplies were piled at the lower
end of a road leading from the town
to. the beach where the troops were
camped and there the regimental
supply officer set up his Office. With
a portable scale, the different bat
teries' portions of this and that were
weighed out among jests about this
battery's fondness for sugar and that
ones for prunes until there was not
a pound Of anything left.
