GERMANDEFffiSESON
WEST FRONT APPEAR
ABOUT TO COLLAPSE
British Advance in New Drive
South of Scheldt Ghent
Taken Austrians Pressed
Hard on Entire Front’
NEW YORK. Not. 4. —(Summary of
Cables to the Associated
Press) —Smashing blows are being
dealt the Germans on the western
front and the collapse of the present
enemy defense positions appears close
at hand.
* IB the Italian theater hostilities were
to end today at 3 p. m.—9 o'clock Mon
day morning in the eastern United
States —but up to that hour the Italian
and allied forces continued to press the
Austrians on the entire front, the ad

On the northern end of the front in
France. Field Marshal Haig on Mon
day morning launched a new attack,
south of the Scheldt in the region of
Veieneienr.es. The operation began
successfully on a wide front and this
vital sector of the German position
is in great peril.
The French army maintains its pres
sure. but fighting activity is less than
on Sunday and last week. German
artillery has been active along the
Ai.sne front, probably protecting an ene
my reticenient, which is inevitable in
view of -th* allied success north and
•ast.
General Pershing's armies are press
tag forward east and west of the Meuse
and the Germans apparently are not yet
prepared to make a stand. • Stenay and
the gap in which it lies is being encir
cled and its fall would appear to be
near.
In the center of the sector west of
the Meuse the American first army has
driven forward to Sommauthe. 13 miles
south of Sedan, the most important
German railway center between Me
zieres and Metz.

GOVERNORS URGED
TO ATTEND COTTON
MEETING BY DORSEY
Governor Dorsey on Monday sent to
the governors of the cotton growing
states a telegram urging them to at
tend the meeting of the cotton states
advistory marketing board to be held in
Atlanta next Thursday for the purpose
of taking steps to prevent a furthet de
cline in the price of cotton.
The board is composed of the com
| missioners of agriculture and market
; bureau directors of the cotton growing
states. J. J. Brown. Georgia state com
missioner of agriculture, is president
of the board. His call for the meeting
was issued Saturday in response to a
request from Governor Manning, of
South Carolina. In his call Commis
s.oner Brqwn strongly urged the gov
ernors of tho cotton growing states to
attend the meeting, as well as producers
of cotton, merchants, bankers and other
interested parties. Commissioner Brown
supplemented the call with a telegram
to the governor of each cotton growing
state. The telegram sent Monday by
Governor Dorsey followed up the pre
vious telegram sent by Commissioner
Brown.
Governor Dorsey’s telegram read as
follows:
"The cotton states advisory mar
keting board has issued a call for
a meeting of the board at the state
capitol in Atlanta next Thursday,
November 7. at 10 o’clock, and has
requested the several governors ot
the cotton states to meet and ad
v.se with them as to the best course
of action to pursue in regard to the
marketing of cotton. I join in in
viting you to be present and I urge
you to attend."
The telegram went to Governor Hen
derson. of Alabama: Governor Catts. of
Florida; Governor Brought, of Arkan
sas; Governor Pleasant, of Louisiana;
Governor Bilbo, of Mississippi; Govern
or Bickett. of North Carolina; Governor
William, of Oklahoma; Governor Rye,

Commissioner Brown stated Monday
that he expects a full attendance of
the commissioners of agriculture and
market bureau directors, and had al
ready received indirect information
that’ several governors would probably
attend.
Tn the meantime Commissioner Brown
reiterates his appeal to the farmers
throughout the south not to sell a sin
gle bale of cotton until the price goes
back to a point where the farmers can
sell at a profit. The present price, rang
ing between 28 and 30 cents, is less
than the cost of production, declares
Commissioner Brown.
REFUGEES TELL OF
LATEST FORM OF
GERMANCRUELTY
AMSTERDAM. Nov. 4.—Belgian and
French refugees who crossed the Dutch
frontier beiore it w-as closed during
the past week report that the latest
form of German cruelty took the form
in the separation of men of military
age from their families within sight
of the land of deliverance. They had
been permitted to travel eastward with
their wives and children until tlje la&l
stage was reached and there they were
detained. The old men and women and
children were allowed to proceed
the border.
Families arriving from Valencinnex
and Conde 'tell stories which leave no
doubt that the Germane dur.ng the past
four years of terror have systemati
cally looted the country. Literaiiy
everything moveable, furniture, curta’u
and household utensils was stolen and
ruthless fines were assessed on the peo
ple. Often they were imprisoned it
they failed to respectfully salute the
Germans.
Some of the parties of refugees were
in good health, while others had
members by death since they had beta
driven from their homes. At all points
along the frontier Dutch soldiers h-tve
helped in carrying children and assist
ing the aged and infirm to temporary
shelters.
Members of a German frontier gua.d
attempted to drag back from Duteii
territory some refugees who slipped
through in a crowd at one of the posts
of entry. They were set upon by in
furiated Dutch spectators and chased
back across the frontier.
HUNGARYTOVOTE
WHETHER REPUBLIC
IS TO BE CREATED
LOMDON, Nov. 4.—The population of
Hungary a month hence will take a
public vote to deride on the question
ol a monarchy or republic. according
to an Exchange Telegraph disp.i’ch from
Copenhagen today. In the balloting, the
women will have the same elector.!
rights as the men.
Some of the Candidates
Are Now Overseas
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4. —Some can
didates. up for election tomorrow, won’t
know the outcome of their campaigns
for some time because they’re over
seas.
And of these, some won’t come back
until they are ready to take off flee, if
elected.
A letter from Henry Allen, Republi
can candidate for governor of Kansas,
sent to friends, from France where he
has been working for the Y. M. C. A.,
for many months says:
"I won’t be back until my inaugura
tion.” •

over 14 years. Doctors and medicine
did me no good. It seemed that I was

same kind of medicine which he gave
me. He has generously promised to
send it postpaid, free to anyone who

.WASHING™ LOOKS
FOR GERMANY SOON
TO FOLLOW MU'
.
General Expectation Is That
German Armistice Terms
Will Be Made Public Very
Soon
LONDON, Nov. 4.—Chancellor Bona’'
Law announced in the house of com
mons today that there would be no early
statement on the result of the Ver
sailles conference, as it must be first
c< mmunicated to the United States.
GERMAN ARMISTICE TERMS
ARE NOW AWAITED
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.—Austria
“has taken the count” and definitely
quit the war. At 3 p. m. today her
armistice plea becomes effective.
Germany will be next —and quickly—
the national capital agreed unanimous
ly today, as it awaited with strained
intensity for announcement of tho Ger
man armistice terths.
They were expected today or tomor
row—probably today.
No definite announcement, However,
had come from this government; and
the sole guide was the statement of
French Commissioner Tardieu Saturday
night that they were to be expected
Monday or Tuesday.
Diplomatic courtesy would demand
that the terms be sent to President
Wilson for transmittal to Germany
Germany asked him to pass along the
armistice request. He did, wltn a note
to the associates.
Hence, it is deemed natural here hat I
the associates should return to him the
fruit of their deiiberatnals and have him
send it along to Germany.
If military precedent is followed,
however, Germany will be notified on
the field of battle as to how she may ob
tain the armistice terms.
Peace Conference Talk
So confident is the national capita 1
that the armistice’ terms will result in
a cessation of hostilities that consid
eration is already given the location of
r peace conference.
Washington is strongly talked ami
favored not only by AmerV* r » officials
but by many diplomats. Brussels also
is mentioned —but no decision has been
reached, even tentatively.
The element favoring Washington say
that President W'.son is entitled to
have a large say <p selection of the
site because his have been the basic
peace ideas accepted by **il belliger
ents. Also, his wish to attend the peace
conference would be far easier realized
if the conclave were held in America
than if it were elsewhere. Further, re
construction probi’i-.s must go on apace.
There will be apportionments of food
and raw materials. Arid. Washington
now is the center of both these mat
ters.
Nearly every one in authority believes
Germany will not elect to fight on un
der these conditions—alone against the
world.
Humors of the kaiser's abdication are
prevalent, but lack any verification.
His indorsement of electoral reforms ,
is taken as a realization upon his part
that he had to submit to some shearing
of his power. But, that he is deter
mined to retain his reign as long as
possible appears certain. His presence
now at grand headquarters might indi
cate he has det hied to place his fate
in the hands ot ills general staff whose
creed is naturally monarchia).
CONSTANTINOPLE I

OF ALLIED FORCES
PARIS, Nov. I.—Allied forces are re- ;
.< ,-t • i to have arrived in Constantino- ;
i.e and to have landed on the Princes

pa.ch to the Petit Journal, dated Sun- .

there is no confirmation of the reports, |
Its realization apparently is only a ques- .
lion of hours in any event.
The Princes islands are situated in ■
the Sea of Marmora, near the coast of
A la-Mtnor, ton to fifteen miles south- |

Hoover Personally Revokes
License of R. G. Lundy
An order signed personally by Herbert
Hooter, federal food administrator, re
voking the license of R. G. Lundy, a
prominent food dealer of Augusta, Ga., i
and instructing him to discontinue busi
ness immediately, was received Monday |
morning by Major D. F. McClatchey, ex
ecutive secretary of the state adminis- :
t ration.
This drastic action follows an invest!- |
gation through which the firm of R. G. I
i.undy & Co. was charged with selling, ;
holding and dealing wrongfully in ne- i
cessities. The order further serves no- ■
tice to all firms or individuals that they I

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4. —Terms
of armistice under which the land
and sea forces of whgt once was the
Austro-Hungarian eMpire have laid
down their arms, were announced
today simultaneously in Washington
aniF the allied capitals. They accom*
plish complete surrender and open
' Austrian and Hungarian territory
for American and allied, operations
i against Germany.
From this drastic document, it
may be stated, may be gleaned an
i accurate outline of the conditions
nearing completion in the supreme
war council at Versailles under which
Germany may have a cessation of
hostilities.
The terms, under which the de
bacle on the Italian front ended to
day at 3 p. m. (9 a. m. eastern
j United States time) include com
plete demobilization of Austrian
] forces, surrender of one-half of all
artillery and military equipment;
occupation by American and allied
forces of such strategic places as
may later be selected; use of Aus
trian railroads for operations
against Germany; evacuation of all
invaded territory, leaving behind all
i equipment and supplies, including
coal; surrender of a portion of the
Austrian surface and submarine
fleets and disarmament of others
I under American and allied control;
surrender of all German submarines
in Austrian waters and repatriation
of allied and American prisoners
without reciprocity.
Evacuation of Austrian territory
roughly responds to the boundary
lines claimed by Italy under the
Italia Irredentla, or treaty of Lon
don program. The right of occupa
tion by allied forces is reserved, 10,
, cal authorities to maintain order un
der allied supervision.
The terms of the armistice are to
be carried out under the direction
of Marshal Foch, who will designate
material to be turned over and su
pervise the movement of Austro-
Hungarian -forces to the rear. All
German troops in Austro-Hungary,
Italy or the Balkans must be out or
' interned within 15 days. Destruc
tion of any property by retreating
; forces is specifically forbidden.
Ships to be surrendered include
15 modern Austrian submarines; 3
battleships, 3 light cruisers, 9 de
stroyers, 12 torpedo boats, 1 mine
layer and 6 Danube monitors, to be
designated by the allies. Other war
craft are to be concentrated and dis
armed under allied direction. Free
navigation of all Austrian waters by
both the war and commercial fleets
of the allies is provided for.
The Danube route is to be kept
open by the occupation or disman
