MARSHAL FOCH
ENJOYS REST
ALLIED GENERALJsSIMo TAKES
FIRST HOLIDAY IN FIVE
YEARS-EXPECTS TO HUNT
ON ESTATE NEAR BREST

PARIS, September S.-Narshat
Foch is enjoying the first holiday he
has had in five years. On his estate
at Marliax, near Brest. the Gener-
alissimo of the Allied armies is iiv-
ing the simple life. dressed in loose
tweeds and wearing a cap. only re-
tanning his leather ieggings as a
reminder of his uniform.
The marshal is a great lover of
hunting and partridges are thick in
the woods of Brittany. But the mar
shall disconsoiately watches them
flutter about with impunity 1t will
not be open season for hunting in
France until September 18th. 1t was
open season for the enemy for five
never missed day. Some news
papers are asking that an exception
be made in favor of Foch, one of
them adding naively that "as he has
rendered slight service to his coun-
try, in Kidding 1t of the Germans, he
might be allowed to deprive it's
woods of a few partridges."
When it became known that Foch
was going to Morliax. the mayor and
city councillors at once made elabo-
rate plans for the reception. They
assembled at the house of the mayor
and commenced marching down the
station, when some one remarked
that the hour at which the train was
due had passed.

LIT FT|NC Of BAN

| COBLENZ, Sept. S.-Living condi-

rapidly adjusting themselves as n re-
suit OF the lifting of the blockade.
However. according to the German
/ newspapers, 1t may be years before
| food prices become normal or yirtu-
ally the same as before the war.
Some German editorial writer's, com
planning OF high prices at the present
time and during the war. contend
with bitterness that the low cost of
living enjoyed by Germany for many
years Is gone forever.
As an indication of improvement
in the food situation in one German
city the Kolonialwaren zeitung OF
Leipsiz says:
"Prifiteering trade prices plainly
show a falling off. since the lifting of
the blockade. The overcharges on
pork have long since been removed
and the fat shortage has ceased. To
be sure the demand for fresh meat
is as great now as before in conse-
quence of the cessation of domestic
slaughtering. This need, however. is
covered in the main by the restora-
ton. Everywhere one finds, in. the
eating places, beef, veal and pork
meat without limit and at reasonable
prices. One cen once more eat at noon
in Cologne for 4.5O marks and in
wine restaurant for $50 marks;
it appears as IL conditions
are coming, which are acceptable"

NOTE TO GERMANY

Russia Has Threat in Final
Paragraph
UNLIKE PLEA TO NEUTRALS S

Paris, Oct. 30.--Marshal Foch s note
inviting the German government to par
ticipate in the blockade of soviet Rus
sia is similar to that sent to the neu-
trail states, with the exception Of an
additional paragraph at the end, which
reads as follows:
"The British and French warships
in the gulf of Finland shall continue
to change the route of ships bound for
ports of Bolshevist Russia
The text of the note itself is:
THE president of the Peace Con
ference has been requested by the con
ference to inform the neutral govern
ments of decision taken by the SUI
prcme council of the allied and asso-
ciated powers in regard to economic
pressure which is to be cxPrtcd on Boil
shevist Russia.
THE German government is asked to
take measures similar to those indi .
Gated.
THE avowcd hostility of the Boil
shcvists toward all governments and
their international program Of rcvolu
tion which they are spreading abroad
constitute grave danger for the ma
tional security of all powers. Every
increase of strength of the Bolshcvists
would increase the danger and would
be contrary to the desire of all peoples
who are seeking to re establish peace
and social order
1T is in this spirit that the allied
and associated governments. after
studying the commercial relations with
RolShevist Russia. find these relations
indeed could only be effected through the
agency of the chiefs of the Bolshcvist
Government who. disposing at will of
the products and resources which com o.
mCrcial liberty would bring them. would
thereby achieve considerable increase IN
their tyrannical strength. which they
are exercising over the Russian popu
lationS.
Under these conditions the allied and
associated governments request the
Swedish. Norwegian. Danish. Dutch
Finnish. Spanish Swiss Mexican
Chilean. Argentinian. Colombian. anC
Venezuelan Governments to he good
enough to make an immediate agree
mcnt with them in measures to prevent
their nationals from engaging in any
commerce with Bolshevist Russia and t.
assure that this policy will be vigorously
executed.
