WASHINGTON. Oct. 3i.-Charles
Evans Hughes's report to Attorney
General Gregory on the results Of
his five months inquiry into aircraft
production was placed before Presi-
dent Wilson to-day and then made
public. These are its striking feat
urcs:

questionable practices have charac-

tions have materially improved since
the reorganization of the Aircraft
Division and progress has been
made in gratifying measure" under
the direction of John D. Ryan and

and quotes British aircraft officials
to the same effect.

5. Disclosure is made Of the man

system until fear of the consequences

The fiat assertion is made that in

Hughes.

Joint statement adjuring Americana
with their country's interest at heart
to assure at the polls a Republican
Congress.
"This seems like old times. doesn't
it. Theodore % unused Mr.. Taft
"Indeed it does, WILL" the Colonel
assured him, with a chuckle.
Speak as Americans
They declared in their statement
that vigorous, pro-victory opposition
party in Congress was necessary to
insure the representation of the whole
people in the affairs Of war and peace,
that the Republican party had shown
its mcttle in this war and that its
dominance in Congress was both in the
interest Of efficiency and an earnest Of
the democratic ideals at stake in the
war. The statement follows:
eve approach this subject as
Americans. and only as Americans.
| When this war broke out We would
have welcomed action by the
President which would have elim;-
mated all questions of party
politics. 1t would havo enabled
US all to stand behind him to
the end, without regard to anything
except national considerations. In
stead Of this, partisan lines have
been strictly drawn from the first
! and now the President announces
that only Democrats can be intrust~
ed with future power, and only those
Democrats who will do his will. Be-
cause Of this reflection on other pa
triotic Americans we appeal Cor fair
play.
Unconditional Surrender

from March 4. 1919, TO March 4.
1921. In that period:
"F'iYst-The war must be fought
to unconditional surrender. unless
this is achieved before.
"Second-The terms of world
peace must be settled.
"Third-The Democratic Admin
istration, after cxpending billions Of
treasure and exercising moro abso-
Lutte power than any Administration
in our history, must give an account
of its stewardship.
Fourth--The change from, war
conditions to peace must be brought
about with the least disturbance, and
the work OF reconstruction must be
broadly begun.

Foch Attends Conference

The last to- arrive at the confer
ence was Marshal Foch. He was
alone, without aid or orderly.
At Versailles the business was
over in couple of hours, and a long
line of automobiles with the repre-
sentatives Of the powers returned to
Paris. The reason for the trip to
Versailles to-day was that it is the
headquarters of -.he supreme War
Council, which theoretically makes no
decision except at Versailles.
There will be another informal
meeting at the residence of Colonel
House tomorrow morning, and the
business of the council will be pushed
forward rapidly, either at formal or
informal meetings, until it is con-
cluded.
The spirit of all the representa-
tives appears to be favorable to the
ironing out of all obstacles rather
than to raising them.

The terms of the armistice, which
are now in operation, include the
free passage OF the Dardanelles to

the House Of Commons to-day.
Another condition is the iinme-
diate repatriation Of British war

idly as Premiers Confer
With Marshal Foch

PARIS, Oct. 81 (By The Associated
ress).-The representatives of the
Entente powers left Versailles after
their first formal meeting to-day,
visibly content with the results that
had been achieved.
They had not finished their work,
but they have reached a substantial
accord. Their task is moving, and
they have had the satisfaction of
seeing that they soon will bc able
to make announcements.
The Turkish armistice terms were
chiefly the work of the British and
French. In them the United States
had no part. The decision in this
instance is regarded as one of great
Importance.

Terms Are Not Known

1t is impossible as yet to publish
the full terms of the s~mistice.
Turkeys definite proposals of
peace followed the defeats sustained
by her armies in Palestine and
Mesopotamia and the collapse Of
Bulgaria, which left her open to at
tack on another frontier, and were
not unexpected, although the Turk
in making a bargain is in the habit
Of waiting for the other side to
make an offer.
Great Britain, whose troops have
taken a major part in the overthrow
Of the Ottoman forces, naturally is
most interested, but it is expected
the proposals will be submitted to-

with Turkey before a reply is sentX
