EVERY U-BOAT IS DEMANDED 50,000 Railway Cars Must - Be Delivered to Allies. - B-FOLD INCREASE INVOLVED lerman Troops Must Be Withdrawn immediately From Austria, Roumanla, Turkey. WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. Germany oses her entire fleet of submarines under the armistice terms as amended by Marshal Foch before he signed them Lvith the German envoy, Monday morn- ng. Instead of 160 vessels, every one if the under-sea pirate craft must be surrendered to the allies and the United States, within 14 days. Eighteen of the articles as originally Prepared by the supreme war council nd as read by President Wilson to 'ongress were changed under the Uni ted authority for alteraton given to he supreme commander in dealing w ith the enemy envoys. The State Department today received and made public the amended articles with the explanation that no informa tion had come as to how the changes were brought about. Concessions Made to Germans. Apparently most of them were con ceded in response to appeals . of the iGfrman spokesmen, though several be- fdes that touching -submarines make khe terms more drastic than before. Instead of 50,000 railroad cars to be surrendered in evacuated territory, the number is made 150,000. On the other . hand, the number of pnachine guns to be delivered by the k3ermans Is reduced from 30.000 to 15 000; the German troops in East Africa art permitted to evacuate instead of being required to surrender; provision made for considering food needs in Germany in the taking of means of transportation, and a specific reference to the regulation of repatriation o German prisoners of war at the con clusion of peace is added. Time Extension (.ranted. In response to the German fear of anarchy in occupied Russian provinces after evacuation, the time of evacua tion Is changed from immediately to "as soon as the allies, taking into ac count the internal situation of these territories, shall decide that the time for this has come." Territories which belonged to Aus tria-Hungary before the war are added to those which must be evacuated. Another additional clause provides for an armistice commission to which Germans will be admitted to carry out details under decision of the victorious military heads and in accordance with appended notes, which were drafted during the conference between Marshal I'och and the German delegates. Armlntire Signed 3ioTcmber 11. The additions and changes close with this: "This armistice has been signed No vember 11, 1918, at 5 o'clock Krench time. "l . Koch, R. K. Weymss, Erzberger, A. Oberndorff, Winterfeld, Vanselow President Wilson has had the terms as drafted by the supreme war council and approved by the allied premiers and Colonel House in his hands since a jweek ago yesterday, when they were cabled upon their completion. He pre pared his address, including the terms and read it to Congress before Marshal Koch reported the document as actual ly signed at his headquarters. Repatriation Time Specified. A Summary of the changes follows Article 3 Fifteen days instead of H are allowed for the repatriation begin ning at once of all inhabitants, re moved from invaded countries includ ing hostages and persons under trial or convicted. Article Providing for the surren aer ol munitions and -equipment, re duces the number of machine guns to be delivered from 30,000 to 25,01)0; th number of aeroplanes from 2000 to 1700. Trodpa of Occupation to Art. Article o 1'rovlding for me -evacu ailon by the Germans of the countrie on the left bank of the Rhine, stipu lates that these countries shall be ad ministered by "the local troops of oc cupation" instead of the local authori ties under control of the allied an United states armies and the occupa tion is to be "carried out" instead o "determined by" allied and Unite (states garrisons holding strategic points and the principal crossings the Rhine. Thirty-one days instead of 25 are allowed for completion of the evacuation. Harm or Damace Forbidden. Article 6 Providing that no harm or damage shall be done to person and property in territory evacuate by the Germans, has a sentence specific ally stipulating that no person shall be prosecuted for offenses of partici pation in war measures prior to th signing of the armistice.

By The Associated Press. THE guns everywhere are mute. Hostilities have given way to preparations by the defeated eneiqfr to evacuate ail invaded territory In ac cordance with the terms of the armis tice and by the entente forces to take up the strategic positions assigned to them in order that the foe may be un able to resume fighting. Although the British, Belgian. French and American armies have rested on their arms, they, nevertheless, are on the alert for any eventuality. And thus it Is purposed they shall remain until the peace which will make the world safe for democracy has arrivad. As the German armies in the west wend their way backward across the Rhine defeated, comes the cry from Germany for an early peace. Ktarva- on faces the war-torn empire. Ger many, which once boasted that it would throw a circle of iron about the British sles and starve the people into sub mission, today is beginning to beg not alone for peace, but for bread. Magnanimity lies in the outstretched ands of the allies. The German peo ple are' not to be permitted to perish for want of food. Sustenance is to be iven them, but in doing so undue pri vations are not to be visited upon the peoples of the devastated countries over which the Germans haVe swept. In Germany proper the new govern mental regime apparently is holding way. Internal strife seemingly has nded except for a mutiny by he sail rs. It is apparent that the northern fleet and Heligoland, the island bastion defending the coast of Northern Ger many, are in the hands of mutineers who have called upon the sailors to de fend the country against the "unheard- f presumption" contained In the allies rmlstice terms. Amendments to the armistice terms to Germany show that the allies are more xacting in their demands than was at irst reported. The Teutons are to be stripped of all their submarines, those wolves of the sea which have caused uch devastation, instead of 160, as first was stipulated. A reduction in the quantity of some f the military equipment to be deliv- red was made, but instead of 50,000 railroad cars, 150,000 must, be sur rendered. The treaties of Bucharest nd Brest-Ldtovsk, it is stipulated, must be renounced and the evacuation of the Rhinclands on both sides of the river shall be completed within 31 days. The countries on the left ban of the Rhine are to be administered by the control of the armies of occupation. It is reported again that Charles. Emperor of Austria and King of Hun gary, has followed the example of his hief colleague In the war. Vt illiam Hohenzollern, and laid aside his scepter.

REVOLUTION STILL GAINING Autocracy Capitulating Length and Breadth of Country. HELGOLAND FLEET SEIZED "Spartacus Group" of Socialists, Bolshevik Element, Gains Recog nition as Political Party. 7.1RICH, Nov. 12. (By The Asso ciated Preaa.) A republic wan pro claimed at Berlin on Saturday, accord-ins- to advleea received from Munich, COPENHAGEN, Nqv. 11. Out of the political chaos in Germany a republic appears to be emerging. Control at present is vested largely In soldiers' councils, but progress toward substan tial government Is indicated by the fact that Philipp Scheidemann. the Socialist leader, has proclaimed from the steps of the Reichstag building that the foundation of a German re public has been established. The revolution coi.tinues to spread and Kaiserism appears to be capitulat ing the length and breadth of the country. Advices from Bremen say that the entire German Northern fleet and the island base of Helgoland are in the hands of soldiers' councils, according to a telegram from Bremen. Bonrceoiae All Barred. Germany's new provisional govern ment will be all red, that is to say, th bourgeoise parties will not be rep resented in it. This will not be because of their unwillingness to participate. but because the Socialists definitely refused to permit the bourgeoise to en ter the new government. The plaii is to give the Independent Socialists the Vice-Chancellorship and two other secretarial positions. There are indications, however, that inde pendents will demand more. The Soldiers" and Workmen's Coun cil, in a dispatch telling of the confisca tion of the Lokal Anzeiger and the Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zcitung by the Socialists, says: 'All the Socialist factions in Berlin now have a daily newspaper." Bolshevik! Gain Recognition. This remark carries deep signifi cance, as it Is the first recognition of the "Spartacus" group, or Bolsheviki, as a distinct Socialist faction. The Spartacus adherents heretofore represented a small branch of the Inde pendent Socialists. That they are now reckoned as a party for themselves appears to indicae a growth In the Bolsheikl strength of such proportions that it must be reckoned with.

Employer Throughout Country to Inform Authorities What Are Needs in Labor Line. WASHINGTON. Nov. 12. Demobili zation of men in the military and naval service of the United States after their return from France will be carried out largely on a basis of the ability of trade and occupations to absorb them, under a plan being worked out by the Labor, War and Navy Departments and the War Industries Board. It was said today that the plan will be submitted to President Wifcon soon. The War Industries Board has sent questionnaires to employers in all in dustries asking the- needs of each for men, and the answers will show where, when and how rapidly Jobs will be ready for discharged soldiers and sailors and what trades art most in need of them. The War Labor Policies Board and the United States employment service will be combined to handle the Labor Department's end. The War Depart ment is expected to establish a new bureau or to convert the activities of Provost Marshal - General Crowder's office to this end. The question of the number of Amer ican troops to be retained in" France or elsewhere in Europe Is being studied on that aide. Secretary Baker said, while the general staff is preparing recommendation as to the number to be kept under arms In this country. - Mr. Baker said several factors will govern the order in which men will be released from the Army. It is obvious. he said, that, as a matter of Justice, men who had been longest In the serv ice should be released first, but the Industrial situation will modify, this principle. Labor employment officials assert that the demobilization of the 4.000,00 men now under arms at home and over seas and the conversion of Industry to its peace status will not cause any serious problem of unemployment. BELGIANS TO BE ON GUARD Neutrality "Guaranteed" by "Scrap of Paper" Not Wanted In Future. WASHINGTON. Nov. 12.

It aspires to 'com plete Independence; tp the rights com mon to all free peoples." A return to the "statin.' quo of 1S3V the statement said, will entail a per petual Intrusion by Germany upon the domestic life of the nation and create a situation "Intolerable to public opln Ion and certain to cause serious diffi culties."

AMERICAN TROOPS LAUDED BY BRITISH 'GALLANT AND DECIDED DEEDS' MEET DESERVED PRAISE. London Press Say Perhing's Men Far Surpassed "All Confident . Expectations" at Eront. LONDON. Wednesday. Nov. C In praising the work of the American Ex peditionary force. In an editorial to day, the Morning Post says: "Of the gallant-and decisive deeds now unfolding on tne western front, not the least conspicuous appears to be the achievements of the American Army In the critical Meuse sector. At any other moment, those achievements would have been certain of deserved celebration. "The American troops, only newly trained, inheriting no long military tradition and moulded by no Ironbound system, have faced and have overcome the pick of the German legions. "The cost doubtless has been heavy but the result Is amazing. "In this country we have never doubted as to how the American aol dler would prove himself In the field. but it is not too much to say that the most confident expectations have been surpassed. The rapidity and thorouah- ness with which General Pershing's men have adapted themselves to the highly specialized conditions of modern warfare have been a revelation. Indeed, In their own phrase, they have made good and lost no time about it. "Whn the story Is written of these last fateful days of the war it will be recognized that the part played by the men from the Cnited States haa been neither the least honorable nor th leas onerous.
