MADE FROM GRAINS OF CORN.

entirely of grains of corn. The flag
is about 5x3 feet and is made of
the three colors of corn, the red and

Marshal Foch To Give Conditions of Armistice; Germans
Informed They Can Have Peace on Terms Enun
ciated by Wilson; Von Winterfeldt to Con
duct Negotiations
Amsterdam, Nov. 5. Germania of
Berlin says that General von Winter
feldt, former German military at
tache at Paris, will conduct the
armistice negotiations for Germany
on the western front.
Washington, Nov.
-Marshal
Foch has been authorized by the
United States and by the allies to
receive representatives of the Ger
man government and to communi
cate to them the terms of an armis
tice.
The German government is so in
formed in a note handed to the
Swiss minister here today by Sec
retary Lansing.
The note announces that the al
lied governments have declared
their willingness to make peace with
the German government on the terms
laid down in President Wilson's ad
dress to congress last January and
on the principles of settlement
enunciated in his subsequent ad
dresses.
Reserve Freedom Of Action.
The allies reserve to themselves.
however, complete freedom of action
when they enter the peace confer
ence on the subject of the freedom
of the seas.
It was further stated with refer
ence to restoration cf invaded terri
tories that the allied governments
understand that compensation wil
be made by Germany, for all damage !F
to the civilian population of theja
allies and their property as the re-j
suit of the aggression of Germany
by land, by sea and from the air."
The note now is on the cables.
In 24 hours it should be in the
hands of the Germans; in 48 hours
the world may know whether an im
mediate end of the war is at hand.
Publication of the details of the
armistice terms still is withheld.
They may not be made known until
the Germans have accepted or re
jected them, as was the course fol
lowed by the allies. in dealing with
Bulgaria, Turkey and Austria. Only
the details are in doubt, however,
and no one questions that accept
ance means abject surrender.
Text of Lansing's Note.
The text of Secretary Lansing's
note follows:
"In my note of October 23, 1918,
I advised you that tne president
had transmitted his correspondence
with the German authorities to the
governments with which the . gov
ernment of the United States is asstr
elated as a belligerent, with the
suggestion that, if these govern
ments were disposed to accept peace
upon the terms, and principles indi
cated, their military advisers and
the military advisers of the United
States be asked to submit to the gov
ernments associated against Germany
DC

Underwear that is scant in proportion, inferior of
material, and indifferent as to workmanship?

the necessary terms of such an
armistice as would fully protect the
interests of the peoples involved and
insure to the associated govern
ments Iho unrestricted power to
safeguard and enforce the details of
' the peace to which the
German
provided
government had agreed,
: they deem such an armistice possi-
I ble from the military point of view.
"The president is now in receipt
of a memorandum of observations
by the allied governments on this
correspondence, which is as follows:
Willing to Make Jeace.
"The allied governments have
given careful consideration to the
correspondence which has passed
between the president of the United
States and the German government.
Subject to the qualifications which
follow, they declare their willing
ness to make peace with the gov
ernment of Germany on the terms
of peace laid down in the president's
address to congress of January, 1918,
Geiiera! Pershing
insists that his men bs well
clothed. More especially for the
stimulating effect it has upon the
men themselves.
If gcod clothes help to make an
army more effective, what about
the men in the civil ranks.
Good clothes, not extravagant
clothes, induce self respect and
command respect of others. Our

and the principles of settlement
enunciated in his subsequent ad
dresses. They must point out, however,
that clause two, relating to what is
usually described as the freedom of
the seas, is open to various inter
pretations, some of which they
could not accept. They must, there
fore, reserve to themselves com
plete freedom on this subject when
they enter the peace conference.
Compensation Exacted.
"Further, in the conditions of
peace laid down in his address to
congress of January S, 1918, the
president declared that invaded ter
ritories must be restored as well as
evacuated and freed. The allied goT
ernments feel that no doubt ought
to be allowed to exist as to what
this provision implies. By it they
understand that compensation will
be made by Germany for all dam
age done to the civilian population
of the allies and their property by
the aggression of Germany by land,
by sea and from the air.'
"I am instructed by the president
to say -'that he is in agreement with
the interpretation set forth in the
last paragraph of the memorandum
to notify the German government
that Marshal Foch has been author
ized by the government of the Vnitod
States and the allied governments
to receive properly accredited rep
resentatives of the German govern
ment and to communicate to them
the terms of an armistice.
"Accept, sir, the renewed assur
ances of my highest consideration.
