Washington, Oct. 24.-Germany must
Hquit cold now-or fight the war to
the bloody finish.
She can have peace if she chooses to
accept allied terms, but in any way
the situation is viewed, her quitting will
be a surrender.
That was how the national capital to.
day interpreted generally the joint an
houncement of President Wilson Is

ficial fact that over 100000 Yan.s

that. the president reply may be re-
earded as final in that he thinks that
there is nothing more to be saids or

Germany has two alternatives. The
first i that the kaiser abdicatc. If
that is done, Germany can be free to
accept an armistiee which will make
her powerless to fight on, but which
does not carry with it the demand

TO Wilson, that if the kaiser and mis-

United States and the allies must now,

8. Armistice Up to Allies.
The president held his terms had been
sufficiently met to Justify his passing

Washington, Oct "a. Marshal Foch,

manders, left by President Wilson to
apply armistice terms, have agreed up
on course tantamount to Germany 3
unconditional surrender if they are ac-

From an authoritative source it was

First, evacuation Of Alsace- Lorraine.
Second, evacuation Of Prusslan Po.

Third, cessation of all munition man
ufacture to be insured by committees
of allied officials, who will be install
ed in all factories at Essen and other
points.
Fourth, surrender of the submarine
fleet.
Fifth, occupation Of all German, bat.
tleships by allied naval officers.
The provisions of the armistice have
been drafted to embody the foregoing
points and to insure completely against
any resumption Of warfare by Ger
many, either on land or sea.
Precautions were included to pre-
vent Germany utilizing the armistice
for manufacture of war material with

peace negotiations fail. It is accepted,
of course, that France and Belgium
