WITH THE AMERICAN FIRST
ARMY, Nov. 2.—Pershing's Americans
hammered the enemy so hard >odiy
that he broke into a retreat approach-
ing a rout.
!n the final hours, before darkness
the Germans were hurrying their artil-
lery to the rear at a gallop, while the
Yankee front line troops were huptli.ig
forward in motor trucks.
It is reported that at some points
cur troops are unable to establish con-
tact with the fast fleeing foe.
Cheered by their important victories
of yesterday, the doughboys went into
battle this morning with irresistible
vigor and dash. The weather was
cloudy and there were light showers,
but the spirit of our troops was itn-
dampened.
They smashed into the enemy lines j
north of the Argonne, leaving behind
close to seven kilomete-s (more than
four miles) of ground previously held;
by the enemy, liberating many villages,
storming formidable fortifications arid
taking more than 3,(XX) prisoners tmd
75 guns. Many machine guns and gteat
quantities of material also were cap-
tured.
The Yankees advanced in what may he
compared to a series of football rushes.
The enemy could not resist them. Forti-
fied heights, woods and ravlues were cap-
t need.
Our left fl.ltik met the fiercest opposi
tiun, however, as did the French advancing
to h depth of three kilometers (nearly two
miles) over a twenty-kilometer front
~44\velvo and a half miles). The American
' attacking front extended from the valley
east of the Hois do Bourgogtie eastward to
the Meuse UiVer. a line of twenty two ki-
lometers (more than fourteen miles).
Today's drive was marked by even
greater" success than yesterday's attacks.
The Americans wuit beyond their ached
ule. Hundreds ot' prisoners were added
to yesterday's total. Many guns of heavy

WASHINGTON, D. C, Nov. 2.—The
Supreme War Council at Versailles, it
was learned today through diplon.atie
channels, has under consideration the
starting point in framing terms of an
armistice, proposals that Germany be
required to withdraw her armies with-
out their military supplies or the loot
being carried from France and Bel-
gium, to a zone thirty miles to the
German side of the Rhine and that the
entire German navy, including subma-
rines and the Helgoland fortress, be
surrendered.
It is possible that the conditions,
when finally agreed upon, may nol
emerge from the council in exactly
this degree, but it is believed they
will be no less potent for preserving
the military supremacy for the allies
and at the same time offer preparations
which the Germans may accept with-
out further fighting.
The same information, coining through
the same sources, indicates that the armis-
made known to the world Monday or 'lues
day and that they will be presented to
Germany for acceptance in their entirety
or not ar all, without opportunity for
quibbling or trading
From a military point of view, the pro-
posal that the German armies be disarmed
and retire thirty miles beyond the Rhine
is classed only as tantamount to an abso-
lute surrender. It would not only throw
open to the allied and American armies
many roads to Berlin, but with the sur-
render of railway rolling stock, deprive
the ejiemy of means to retrace their steps
or light if they would.
There Is some question among military
observers as to whether such complete
terms are really necessary. I ndoubtedly

LONDON, Nov. 2.—In the hands of one man, the Austrian commander-
in-chief, rests the fate of the Austro-Hungarian army. He alone can avert
the greatest military cataclysm ot history, the cutting to pieces or capture of
three-quarters of a million men. Eighty thousand of them already have been
made prisoner, and the bulk of the Austrian artillery, 1,600 heavy pieces, are
in allied hands. Along the whole 150-mile front, from the southeastern edge of
the Trcntino to the Adriatic, Diaz's avenging legions are plunging ahead, and
everywhere except in the Asiago region, the scene of a life and death struggle,
the Austrians are in wild flight.
The only way the Austrian generalissimo can avert the annihilation of his
armies is to accept, unconditionally, the allied armistice terms. They are in
his hands. Diaz sent them to him upon receipt from Versailles, where all con-
ferring powers subscribed to them. They are based upon President Wilson's
fourteen principles. But the Austrian comt lander's position is unique in the
annals of history. He is a generalissimo without a government behind him.
His army is virtually an army without a country. For Austria-Hungary is no
more. His and their "supreme war lord," Charles II, is an emperor without
an empire, a king without a kingdom. The only thing that is left to testify
that there wys once a dual monarchy, is this very army staggering backward
under Diaz' blows. For it contains Austrians and Hungarians, Bohemians and
Magyars, Czecho-Slavs and Jugo-Slavs, Croatians and Tyrolians, all under one
command.
Behind them, in the revolt-swept land for which they have been fighting,
the great racial crime that forged—and forced—them together, has been
avenged. The colossal unnatural amalgamation of heterogeneous tribes has
been ripped to pieces by those tribes themselves. Race hatred is aflame, and
each of the nations in the army, returning home, will find half a dozen other
nations awaiting them, the "defenders," wirh contempt and scorn.
The homeland, which these soldiers have been told for four years they
were defending against the "foreign foe," has been turned into a cauldron of
fratricide by those within. The great evolution from the tyrannic rule of the
minority to the democratic control by the majority is under way. The great
polyglot population of the cut-up Hapsburg empire is groping its way toward
freedom, and the first step is to assign a place in the sun to each of the races.
How that struggle will be affected by the flooding of the country by hundreds
of thousands of soldiers, weary, hungry and bitterly disappointed, the next
week will show.
To whom shall the Austrian commander turn for authority in accepting
Italy's surrender terms?
The monarch to whom he has sworn fealty and "defense to the death" i#
_ in hiding, somewhere in Hungary, afraid to face the rebels at home and the
i i"e lerms H n'i i i y' Vi j; r'eeU "u pr.n" n'i':i ,v" he j mutineers at the front. But time is pressing; disaster stalks across the Venetian
plains, across river after river and over the mountains hard on the heels of
the "army without a country." Meanwhile, rumor is revelling amid the chaos.
The latest is that the armistice lias been signed. Only the Austrian commander
could sign it, and it can settle, for the present, only one thing—the escape of
the army from utter destruction. For what the national council at Vienna
ratifies might not be sanctioned by Karolyi's council at Budapest, not to speak
of the innumerable other "independent states," arisen or arising overnight.
From Rome bulletins of victory are coming in; not a word is said of a
cessation of hostilities due to Austrian surrender. Udine, the Lille of Venetia.
where the Austrians last year captured the Italian headquarters intact, with
untold stores of materials, is being evacuated by the Austrians, intact. In addi-
tion to their own stores the Italians will find immense Austrian additions
there.
The Tagliamento, "river of fate," as it was called during that disastrous
Latin retreat last year, is uithin sight of the pursuers. It is that same river of
which it was then said with all the ponderous finality of arm chair strategists
that "if the Italians don't make a stand there, the;y are doomed." They didn't
make a stand there. They rolled back, ever westward, across many another
river, back to the Piave and across it, and only there they stood, and stood like
granite.
But for the fleeing "army without a country," the Tagliamento may well
prove the "river of fate."
•The Italians and their allies are approaching it with the swiftness of a
winged vendetta. Yesterday they were stiil twenty miles from it. This morning
eleven miles separated them from the stream. Late this afternoon, they stood
six miles west of it. By tonight they are believed to have reached and possibly
crossed it. For the Austrians the flight across this stream is like that of the
Italians over the Isonzo last fall.
Americans the 332d Regiment, mostly men from Ohio—are in the fore of
the pursuing army, witnessing the greatest debacle of the age.
The Austrian Trentino army is trapped, hopelessly cut off from the forces
in the plain. Its only avenues of escape are miserable mule paths, leading into
the mountains. It is in a plight almost identical with that of the Serbians when
King Peter's little army—tonight back in Belgrade—was shepherded into the
hills by some of the same Austrian divisions now being pushed by King
Victor's troops. •
fense system. That system is supported
by a chain of fortresses, without which
the line would lie untenable, and some
military exports believe if may not be
necessary to go farther than to demand
the surrender or dismantling of those forts.
The military discussion developed by
the proposals brings u suggestion that

There Is Neither Uniformity Nor
Classing in This "Equalization '
'THERE is pending in Ohio a proposition *o amend the State Constitution
by abolishing the old, so-called "uniform" rule of assessing property
for taxation, and empowering the Legislature to classify property and provide
a uniform rate for each class that it creates.
Heartily commending this proposition, the Cincinnati Hnquirer declares
that "the rule should not be the value ot the property, but the ability of the
thing assessed to meet the tax. * * In taxation it is only what one
pays that counts. High valuation usuallv means a low tax rate and a high
tax rate a low valuation, things to which the taxpayers give little heed, being
concerned only in paying the bill rendered By making valuations different
for various kinds of property, the as>e~sor really igstalls a classification
scheme while asserting its uniformity because the tax rare is the same in all
;ases."
Bexar County taxpayers may choose between the Knquirer's position
and the old "uniform" rule of assessing property, minus classifications with
different rates on each class: but ue .ire certain that they will in?ist upon
one rule or the other being applied in the business of assessing and taxing
their own property.
Doubtless the people, the press and the taxation experts of Ohio have
given this matter considerable thouf t because of the pending amendment
proposition. We wish some of them would examine the performance by
which Bexar County's taxable property was "equalized" upward S23.000.0tA)
—and give it a name!
To be sure, "high valuation usually means a low tax rate and a high
tax rate a low valuation"—but not in Bexar County under the rule of the
present County Judge and Commissioners! Up goes the assessed valuation
S23.CC0.aC— and u? goes the tax rate 2 ccts and up goe.~ one business
property assessment—and down gee - another, next door to it— :>nd u? goe«
a little cottage to SI3.COO— and down goes a three-story office building to
Sl.Mt :
No uniformity, no classification, no methodical system!
Change all this, voters of Bexar County, in next Tuesday's election.
Fleet the opposition to the present fiscal government of \our county,
headed by the Count' Judge.
Vote for Bcardslcy get rid of the old, extravagant county political
machine in fuvor cf a business administration—and thereby protect your o*n
