OD AUSTRIA DOWN AND OUT PEADS FOR PEACE; TERMS SHE GETS Austro Hungarian Territory Open to Allies for Operations Against Germany TO USE HER GUNS ON KAISER No Chance Remains for Argument Over Boundaries Around the Peace Table Washington, Nov. 4.-Austria-Hun gray, the last and most powerful ally of Germany, passed out of the world war today under terms of abject sur render. Not only have- the armed forces of, the once powerful Austro-Hungarian Empire laid down their arms to await the end of the war and peace terms dictated by the Allies and the United States, but Austro-Hungarian territo ry is open for operations against Ger many. Even the munitions of the former ally are to be used against the Kaiser's armies, if refusal to ac cept conditions now being prepared fof them make prolonged fighting necessary. The terms which- stopped the victo- t rious advance on the Italian front were accepted by the Austrian com mander in chief in the field in the name of the Vienna Government, and their execution is guaranteed by the thorough beating already adminis.. tered, which had converted the de Ieated army into a disorganized, flee ing horde. Terms of Armistice The terms of the armistice, with parenthetical explanations of minor errors in cable transmission, were an -"nounced by the State Department as follows: . Following are the terms of the armistice imposed upon Austria, which will go into effect at 3 o'clock today: Military clauses: 1. The immediate cessation of his tilities by land, sea and air. 2.- Total demobilization of the Aus tro-Hungarian army an:l :mmcdiate withdrawal of all Austro-Hungarian forces operating on the front from the North sea to Switzerland.

I HARRY LEVISON FROM flourges, France, 10-12-18. Dear Machy: 1 have your letter of Sept. 10th, i mnd of course it was welcomed. News from Manning, and you in particular, t cannot be received too oft-ci. My i thoughts often travel back to the lit- t tle town from whence I came. How ever my imagination is not quite strong enough to take me there in reality, so I just dream and dream. and dream. Probably you will be interested to learn that I just receivedi a letter from Hlarry Riff. lIe is in an entire ly :ifferent section of France from which I am in. He wrote me to meet him at a certain city, but at present I do not see how that is possibl. Every minute of my time is consumed by unceasing work. It's a daily grind from early morn 'till late at night. Nothing but a lecture, music, or some other form of amusement at the Y. ( M. C. A. to break the awful monotony. Yes, there is something else that failed to mention, i. e. a dnce given once a week by the English girls who are located in the same cimp as we are. Believe I wrote you about that in my last letter. I thank you very much for having The Manning Times sent me each ! week. However, I regret to say that only two copies have been receivedl to date. No dIoubt the others have gone astray. The newvs in this piaper~ is al wvays very interesting to me, and when 1 (do receive at copy, it is readt thoroughly.

From the Secretary of State to the Minister of Switzerland, in charge c f German interests in the United States. Department of State, November 5, 1918. Sir: I have the honor to request you to transmit the following communicatien to the German governmdnt: "In my note of October 23, 191.'. 1 advised you that the president ha: transmitted his correspondlence with the German authorities to the goverr: ment- with which the government e the United States is assaciated as a helligerent, with the suggestion th.t if those governments were disposed to effect peace upon the terms arni principles indicated their military ai visers and the military advisers of the United States be asked to submat to the government' associated again., Germany the necessary terms of such an armistice as would fuly protest the interests of the people involvt i and insur to the associat 'd gover mencts the unrestricted power to saf guard and enforce the details of tI peace to which the German gover ment had agreed, providel they denr. id such an armistic:' possible fr the military point of view. ''The president is now in r'ceipt of. memorandum of observations by ti' allied governments on this correspor ence, which is as follows: " 'The allied governments have gi en careful consideration to the co. r'espoilde'nce which has passed lhe tween the president of the United States and the German government. Subject to the qualificat ions which follow they declare their willingne. to make peace with the government ! Germany on the terms of peace with the government of Germany on ti . terms of peace laid down in the pre: dent's address to congress o .1 aniuaty, 1918, and the principles of settlemer.t enunciated in his subsequent addre es. They must point out, howv(-, that clause two relating to what usually described as the freedom the seas, is open to various interpr - tations, some of which they could not. accept. They must, therefore, reser'v( to themselves complete freedom on this subject when they enter the pea:. conference. " Further, in the conditions of peac'e laid down in his address to Congress of January 8, 1918, the president dt clareci that invaded territories mu t he restored as well as evacuated ar freed, the allied governments feel that no doubt ought to b ailowed to exist as to what this provision implies. BY it they understand that compensatitn will be made by Germany for all ic . age done to the civila population of the allies and their p, operty by the agr'ression of Germany by lan-d, I': sea and from the air.'
