On Thursday September l9, the Brit

Jafa across TO the River Jordan, Just
north of Jerusalem Since that date,
on which General Allenby cayed in the
line, until today the second OF Octo-
ber, the allied forces have advanced a
hundred miles, No such forward move

Russian retreat.
General Allenby cannot have a big
army, as we think Of big armies on the
western front II is doubtful whether
native troops, Indians and whites COM
bined in the march exceed 100000 men.
No such march could he continued
unless all enemy resistance had dsap-
pearcd.
1t may be that the Turk anticipated
the British effort and decided to clear
the country as far back as Aleppo, and
therefore withdrew all reserves between
the old front of September 10 and
Aleppo.
But we know il 10 be fact that the
two Turkish armies were virtually de

So Turkey has to face her ancient
enemy, the bulgarian, as well as meet
the combined forces Of the allies. The
prospect is anything but encouraging
for her. The Young Turk leaders have
been sick OF the war and looking for
a way out for two years. II may be

II is only matter OF time until lur-
key makes her plea, for with Bulgaria
in a block between her lands and Aus
tria she is cut loose from all help.
The entente wants an unconditional
surrender from Turkey, too, for it means
the opening OF the Dardanelles and the
Black sea, with ingreSs for the allied
fleets and help for Russia, it means
the reclamation of Rumania as the logl-

Her family were not at home and

Hunger and Apathy Dis
tinguish People.

BERLIN, Nov. 25.--By the Associat-
ed Press.-Strange are the expert
ences OF traveller who enters Ger
many after an absence Of several
years. Formerly there were many
and varied governmental orders and
restrictions TO be obeyed. Nowadays
when you go to a police station, the
desk sergeant will say sadly:
You are not required to register
any longer"
They do not even look at your pass
port.
Another feature Of the new free
dom" in Germany, which may sur
prise the traveller is that the private
soldier no longer salutes his superior
officers. The soldier calls his officer
"comrade"
Berlin outwardly -, as orderly as
ever, but order is no longer maintain
ed by policemen, but by soldiers with
arm bands as the badge Of office. The
picture is familiar to those who saw
Petrograd during the Kerensky
regime. Another sight recalling Pet
rograd are the military and royal au-
tomobiles-the latter still sounding
the musical call denoting the ap-
proach Of royalty--which dash through
the streets with loads of soldiers.
The prevailing tone in Berlin is
still military, but 1t is a militarism Of
privates and non-commissioned offic-
ers. Their symbol Is the red flag,
which waves above every government
building and from every automobile.
AS far as any participation in direct
ing the affairs of the government, the
bourgeois citizens simply do not ex-

tai. Here and there hollow cheeks,
sunken eyes and pasty compilations
are evidence OF the privation Of the
last four years. Similar conditions
could be observed two years earlier
in the city's poorer quarters, but to-
day they prevail among nearly all
classes. Dilapidated street cars and
cabs drawn by skeleton horses in
tensify the picture OF misery.
The United States is regarded not
only as not an enemy, but actually as
a friend. Berlin residents hopefully
recall assurance of President Wilson
that America does not intend to wipe
out the German people.
Berlin, crushed, broken and dispirit-
ed by privations, has accepted defeat
with almost incredible apathy. 1t is
demoralized, listless and hungry, even

Propose Change Of
Time for Appraisement
(By Associated Pressl

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 25.-Change
of the time of appraising property for
taxation to begin January l of each
year. instead of March 1, is favored
by the State board of tax commission
ers. Suggestions have been made that
the next legislature authorize such a
change in the present laws. Two reas-
ons are given for the proposed change.
One is that corporations could make
reports from statistics compiled for
their own reports at the end OF the
year, instead of having to make spe-
cial calculations on March 1, and in
townships better men for deputy as
SCISSORS probably could be obtained in
January than in later when spring
