Germany must pay in full for the war or frlghtfulness she has waged against non-combatants in invaded terri tories. This fact is made evident in a note which Secretary Lansing handed to the Swiss minister here today for transmission to the German govern ment. In referring to restoration of the invaded territories the. note said that the allied governments understand that compensation will be made by Germany for all damage to the civil ian population of the allies and their property as the result of the aggres sion of Germany "by land, by sea and from the air." Marshal Foch has been authorized by the United States and allies to receive representatives of the Ger- man government and to communi icate to thorn the terms of an armis jtice. I The note announces that the allied governments have declared their j willingness to make peace with the German government on the terms i laid down in President Wilson's ad i dress to Congress last January and Ion the principle of settlement enun ciated in his subsequent addresses. ! The allies reserve to themselves, however, complete freedom of action , when they enter the peace confer i ence on the subject of the freedom of the seas. ASKING fOR 50 PERCENT INCREASE IN UNITED WAR WELFARE WORK LUND I . I In a telegram just received, we are advised that the executive com mittee of the united war work cam paign has asked for a 50 per cuilt increase in the amount previously asked for, making the grand total approximately $ 25U.0uo.0u0, or ! which Douglas County's quota will ! be SttO.Oou. Since (he budget was 'agreed upon four months ago the size of our army Iihh almost doubled. The possibility of an early ending of the war increases the urgency for the greater work by the seven societies represented In the coming drive. Dr. .Mott says the things that weaken i the morale are war-weariness, Idle Jncss and uncertainty. We must 'strengthen the morale by physical t comforts, contentment, entei tain nient, change and refreshment of i mind, and above all the backing at home, and pure religion. 1 r tilted War Work Campaign Com- mittee of Douglas County.

With both I the Republican and Democratic headquarters claiming the next Na tional House and Senate, the election I figures gathered by the I'nited Press 1 this afternoon Indica'ted that the j Senate result is doubtful, and the House Is apparently Republican. The I Senaty, race Is so close that it may be !a tie, with Vice-President .Marshall .cast in gthe deciding vote. The re-1 turns are still far from complete and 1 the situation is still changing hourly, t At 2:;J0 this attetnoon it appeared .that the Democrats had lost Sena tors from New Hampshire, Delaware, I Illinois, Kansas, and probably Mon tana. Idaho and Missouri are doubt ful. The present Senate Includes 52 l Democrats and 44 Republicans. As 1 sumlng that Montana elects a Re publican, the Senate would stand 4'J ! Republicans and 47 Democrats, with Idaho and Missouri doubtful. It is : deemed probable that M issouri will elect a Democrat. On this basis, if both Idaho and Missouri elect Demo crats, the Senate will be a tie. I The foregoing figures assume that the Democrats have carried Ken tucky, although the Republicans are still claiming the Senator from that state.
