GERMANS UNDER

Between Ypres and Dixmude by
Thousands They Are Stacking
Shells, Burying the Dead and

Dixmude, Be1gium-(By Associated
Press)-Scattered over the low-lying
country between Ypres and Dixmude
scenes of many battle, are thousands
of German prisoners under guard OF
British and Belgium soldiers as well
as civilians who have been called into
the gigantic task of clearing up the
battlefields and once more making IL
fit for habitation. They are stacking
shells, recovering brass cases and
burying the dead. There is a mill
tary efficiency about their work and
the progress they are making is most
gratifying for all the governments con-
cerned.
One may still see the ruins of many
British and Belgian tanks, caught in
the German shell fire, now twisted and
broken wrecks. Now they lie ruste
and neglected, mere shells of the once
powerful machines which went into
action. Some of them are almost
buried in the mud, other shang pre-
cariously on the edge of dilapidated
trenches, while still others stand high
in the fields where they were aban-
doned by such of their crews as sur
vived. Many of them are torn and
riddled as though their heavy arnnored

FAIL TO AGREE
ON EMPLOYER AND
LABOR QUESTIONS

Washington, Oct. 1e.-The solution
of the difficulties threatening the life
OF the national industrial conference
seemed more hopeless than ever to-
night after the conferences of the CEN
trail committee in a three-hour session
failed to conciliate the differences be-
tween the labor and employer wings.
The tentative agreement which was
reached late Saturday on the vital
question of collective bargaining was
shattered at the meeting today when
the employers group insisted on add
ing to it substitute resolution clause
declaring for THE right of employers
and employees to bargain individually.
The labor delegates unqualifiedly re-
jected this clause. The conference re-
convenes tomorrow.

TREATY FIGHT
TO ENTER ON
FINAL PHASE
Republicans Expect to Block
Ratification by Standing To-
gether on Program of Reser-
vatiOns.

Washington, Oct. 19.-The long
treaty fight in the senate is about to
enter it's final phase. Leaders hope
during the coming week to clear away
all proposed amendemnts and make
substantial progress in framing the
ratification resolution.
Virtually conceding that no amend
ments will be adopted, opposition man
ayers are determined to nulify the
ratifying resolution with reservations,
and Senator Lodge, Republican leader,
declared in statement tonight that
a decisive majority would stand for
reservations that would be "unequiv-
ocal and effective"
Privately opposition leaders de-
clared Lodges claim was backed by
an understanding amounting virtually
to compelete agreement ambong all
the forty-nine Republicans and six
servation program evolved after many
weeks of conference. How far the re-
manning forty-on senators will go in
opposition to reservations is an un-
certain question even in the minds of
some of their leaders. They have stood
unreservedly through the long fight
cation that would not require the
for the presidents program of ratifi-
treaty's submission to other powers,
but it is for the president himself to
decide finally whether and reserva-
tions adopted will Require resubmis-
sion, and his illness has left the adj
ministration leaders somewhat in the
dark
