To Insist on Surrender.

This is program that contem.
lplates the enforced surrender of the
Central Powers to the Allied nations
at every step. 1t is a program that
will be lacked UP and carried out by
the ever increasing military strength
of the Allies.
Mr. Wilson, it is asserted, has this
program in mind at all times, how
ever indirectly his diplomacy may
seem now and then to be aimed at
accomplishing the general purpose.
The President is endeavoring to aid
the military forces by outflanking
diplomatic attacks for the purpose OF
exerting moral suasion upon the en-

HUNS LOST AIR BASES
Immense Airdromes Abandoned in
Retreat From Coast.

London. Oct. 2o.--ln withdrawing
from Flanders and the Belgian coast
the Germans not only gave up their
submarine bases, but also left behind
immense airdromes. Before the en-
emy retirement from North Belgium
might have been known as the home
of the Gotha. By moving eastward
the Germans lose the points nearest
to England from which they used to
carry out raids upon London and
other English towns. Hereafter it is
believed the Germans. will find it in
creasingly difficult to make air raids
upon the British Isles.
The evacuation of Ostend and Zee
brugge will make easier the work of
the British navy in keeping the Brit
ish Channel clear of submarines.

GREAT LINE OF
 HINDENbURC IS
 WELL DESCRIBED
Experts Who Examined It Tell of It's Great Se-
 curity to Resist
 the Enemy.

WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES IN FRANCE, Oct. 21.-Desperate eff forts were made by the Germans to strengthen the Hindenburg line when they were driven back to it by Mar shal Foch's great offensive this summer. More than nine miles in depth at various points, it had al ress the world has ever known" De- spite this, information has reached the American intelligent officers from various sources that the Germans began to work upon it with renewed vigor soon after the Franco-German counter offensive of July IS which drove them back over the Marne, East of Chateau Thierry and North west across the Vesle.
 One section of the Hindenburg line examined by British experts had belt of wire eight yards deep the wire being the size of a lead pencil and with barbs of an inch. About one hundred yards to the rear was the first German trench and be-
 hind the trench 100 yards apart were ferro-concrete positions built to hold from two to five machine guns. Be- hind these "pillboxes" were other
 machine gun emplacements.
 Behind the first line were belts of wire arranged in a criss-cross geometrical pattern, and then, after an interval varying from several hundred yards to half mile, was the second trench. With the object of preventing tanks from crossing it, the second trench was dug wide enough to act as trap when the big crawleTs came along.
 To the rear of the second trench line was another belt of wire and after that the main or support line The part of the line examined by the
 British officers had been dug by
 Russian prisoners and had running beneath it continuous tunnel at q depth of about forty feet Along this
 main or support line staircases led
 ID from the tunnel every fifty yards
 The tunnel had rooms opening out of it and was lighted by electricity. Above were number of machine gun posts and trench mortar emplace- ments which are connected by hoists so that ammunition may be sent up quickly from below
