The joint resolution carrying that

The resolution as introduced was

give more discretion in the manner

LIBERTY LOAN ADDRESS
European Nations, Friends and Foe

Cards on the Table
Now.

by Robert j. Bender. United Press

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2S. = Presi
dent Wilson served notice on the
| European chancellories = allied as
well as Teuton-that they must scraI
! their old style statecraft If enduring
| peace is to come out of the great
war.
] The United Press is able to state
| semi mi-officially today that the pur
pose behind his New York address
last night-regarded as most strik
| ingly independents three fold
namely:
/ First, to notify, frankly and openly
the allied spokesmen that they must
harken to their peoples wishes and
openly clarity their war purposes as
the United States has done.
Second, that they may frankly dis,
cuss Americas views and say
whether they think / am mistaken
in my Interpretation of the issues
because unity of counsel and pur-
pose is as essential as unity OF mill
tary command to properly win the
war.
Third. that the whole world, bel
ligerent and neutral, may know that
America will not be party to peace
that sees one nation suffer to the
profit of another; that this nation
insists upon justice to friend and
enemy alike, at the peace table;
that we insist the peace negotiations
shall be public to the world and that
no secret covenants or barter ousl-
ness shall occur within the world al
lance to enforce peace upon which
we still insist.
Standing out above his reiteration
of our war purposes, his adherence
10 the league of nations idea and
like positions he has Frequently taken
heretofore, is the presidents virtual
challenge to the European spokes-
men to lay all their cards on the
table now.
He points to the demands Of the
plain workaday people" that the
leaders OF their governments declare
to them plainly exactly what 1t is
that they are seeking in this war"
The people of these countries, he
SAYS, "are not yet satisfied with what
they have been told: statesmen must
follow the clarified common thought
or be broken
And on this point he talked di-
rectly at the statesmen of our asso
ciates as well as to the hypocritical
s9okesmen of our enemies. The note
of the whole address sounded the
warning that America and the allies
must think more clearly now than
ever before Of the issues that hang
upon the war and the purposes that
must be realized from it.

BATTLE E FOR SUFFRAGE
KEEPS SENATE VERY HOT

Martin has said. He has assured
absent senators OF this, and had any
number of antis ready to talk today
to prevent a roll call.
If suffragists succeed in out
maneuvering Martin today, they
may force a vote and win. But IL
they do not, they are beaten, for
this session at least, according to
their own admission.
Even with absentees who favor
suffrage on hand, the ants have
thirty-three votes. This leaves only
sixty-three for suffrage-one less
than necessary.
''I don't see where the one vote is
coming from" said Senator Pittman.

This was the view of all suffrage
leaders Under such circumstances,
It looks today as though there will
be no vote this session.

PARIS, Sept. 28.-Hiah government
circles in Paris expressed no surprise
today at the Bulgarian bid for peace.
To the United Press came the infor-
nation that the request for an armis
tice came from these facts:
Bulgaria is tired Of her sever
years of fighting. There is much dis
content against her allies.
"The parley might have chance
for success II Bulgaria entirely tursts
the allies.
| "There Is little likelihood that the
entente will handle the situation with
bad feeling toward the Bulgarian
people themselves, but Bulgaria must
renounce her exaggerated ambitions
| peace is only possible In accord
/ ance with the already known allied
conditions.
Bulgaria feared that Turkey would
beat her to this step and therefore
acted quickly In her own interests.
"There is every reason to believe
that Turkey is tempted to make a
similar Offer"
An armistice to the hard pressed
Bulgarian armies, fleeing before the
allied forces in Macedonia, has been
refused by General D'Esperey who
commands the French forces in the
Balkans, but he has agreed to meet
some representative of Bulgaria II the
flag of truce and request for an arnis-
tice are carried to the British lines.
General D'Esperey has informed the
French government of the request as
follows:
"Tonisht Bulgarian officer pre-
sented himself upon behalf Of Gen.
eral Tomodcw, who says he is CON-
mander of the Bulgarian armies, pro-
posing an armistice for forty-eight
hours to allow the arrival Of two
accredited delegates of the Bulgarian
government, viz the finance minister
Liaptcheffet and General Loukoff,
commanding the second army, COM
Ing with the permission Of King Fer
dinand to establish condition OF an
armistice and eventually peace"
General D'Esperey reported he re-
piled:
al am unable to grant an armis-
tice, but will receive the delegates II
they present themselves to the Brit
Ish lines accompanied by flag Of
truce"
General D'Esperey said also he had
denied an armistlce because he feared
the request might be ruse to gain
time for reorganization.
La Liberte, Paris newspaper, COM
mentIng on the request, today said:
"The cars offer indicates a Ger
man defeat In the Occident."
"If the negotiations take place."
said lntransigeant, "they will engage
not only France, but all the allies"
