BELGIAN DRIVE
AFFECTS WHOLE
WESTERN FRONT
Advance by King Albert Puts
Long Hun Line in Danger
of Outflanking Op
erations. Paris, Oct. 17. The fate of the
German defenses along the Belgian
coast and in the great Lille indus-
trial area has been sealed by-the
continued ' advance of the allied
armies under King Albert on the
x 30iile front in Flanders. The sig-
nificance of the evacuation of the
Belgian coast line is far greater
than the gain of Flanders territory
with its many airdromes and sub
marine bases.
The extreme right wing of ahe
German defenses in the west has
been wrenched away from the pro
tecting sea. Henceforth the im
mense line which has been but
tressed by the sea on one end and
hy the Swiss frontier on theptlier,
forcing the allies always to attack
frontally. can be outflanked.
, It is believed here that the allied
"attack in Flanders did not surprise
the Germans, but the rapidity of the
advance did. The enemy now is
powerless to retrieve the situation, '
.Affect Whole Lins.
. The operations in Flanders are
bound to have a vital etTect on the
'whole western line. While the Brit
ish attack across the Lys wilj bring"
about the evacuation of the Lille
salient the march of the Bel
gians on Orient win nave a
marked influence on the gen
eral retreat ,( in the west to
the border.
General Ludendorff will be obliged
U fk tn re-establish his fast
crumbling front far in the rear of;
the present operations. The Lille-1
Mezieres line will be out of the ques
tion, as it will be outflanked, and
Ludendorff probably will have to de
fend the German frontier on the line
s of Antwerp-Namur-Metz. To reach!
this line, however, he will have to
retreat swiftly on a wide front. Such
a maneuver, it is believed here,
-" would be most perilous, with Mar
shal Foch hammering unrelentingly
on the retreating armies.
Must Preserve Pivot.
In any case, the German com
mander has to preserve at all costs
, the Arderine pivot. That is why the
..!' Germans are offering such deter-
' mined resistance to the French north
of Vouzieres and to the Americans
on both sides of the Meuse. The
enemy might give way on other
parts of the line with little strategic
loss,., but. to fail In defending the
Ardenne pivot would mean disaster.

(Havas) According to a Budapest
dispatch td the Frankfort Zeitung,

' Basel, Switzerland, Oct. 17. At a
meetine of delegates held at Buda

Austria will do her utmost to assist
in the reconstitution of the state,
placing government employes at its

FOCH'S TACTICS
.sum LINES
Americans Advancing Toward
Points Upon Holding Which
Depends Security of
German Armies.
With the French Army in France,
Oct. 17. (By Associated' Press.)
The entire subsistence of the Ger
man armies between Cambrai and
the Meuse must pass through two
narrow routes by way of Hirson
arid Mezieres. These are the two
lines upon which1 the security of the
German armies now depends, and ft
is toward "those two lines 'that the
French and Americans in Cham
pagne, and the British and French
in the region of Cambrai and
Guise, have been advancing. '
The most plausible reason for a
general retreat of the German
armies is the necessity of reducing
the distance between them and
these two points, both of which are
already remotely threatened, and to
parry the danger of their being
bottled up and captured. The only
alternative would have been the en
gagement of their entire reserves
in a desperate pitched battle in the
forlorn hope of wresting from the
allies the initiative in operations for
the remainder of the fighting
season.
Military experts who regard the
German retreat as that of a com
pletely defeated force attribute the
German reverse first to the desper
are game risked by Ludendorff in the
spring in throwing in and compro
mising the best part of his strength
in an attempt to gain a quick and
decisive result, which left his forces
exhausted i second, to the dis
couragement of the German soldier,
disappointed in the promises held
out to him in March of an early
peace; third, to Ludendorff's tac
tics of attacks over restricted
fronts in mass, pursued to the ex
haustion of the forces engaged; and
fourth, to the success of Marshal
Foch's tactics of harassing the
enemy without respite at many dif
ferent points simultaneously, mak
ing it impossible for the enemy to
bring up reserves to airthe threat
ened positions.

Germany Is Bending;
Hit Her With Bonds,
Says Sec. Lansing
Washington, Oct 17. "Germany
is bending. More pressure and she
will break," says Secretary Lansing
in a statement today warning the
nation that the war is not ever and
that the Fourth Liberty loan must
be a success at a time when every
dollar as well as every man and
every gun counts more than ever
before.
Mr. Lansing's statement follows:
, "Oui men in France are driving
forward. Our government is re
doubling its effort to send men and
munitions overseas. The battles are
going well, but they must go bet
ter. The war is not over. This is
no time to slacken effort or to fail
to do our part here at home. To
keep up and to increase the pressure
on the retreating Germans is the
only certain way to win. To do this
the government must have all the
money it needs. We are asked to
loan it, and we are asked to loan it
now. ,
"The Fourth Liberty loan will put
new armies in France, it will supply
niir men with muntions: it will de
stroy every hope of the imperial
German government, its troops ana
its followers; it will make victory
sure. .
"Germany is bending. More pres
sure and she will break. Every
man counts, every gun counts and
every dollar counts more today than
ever before. The government must
have the money it needs. Loan it
to your country. Do your part to
win the war."

Minister to Sweden Warns
Country Against Spirit of
Overoptimism Growing
Out of. Reports.
. Chicago, Oct. 17. A warning of
the danger of taking too optimistic
a view regarding Germany s sup
posed weakness was sounded Joday
by Ira Nelson Morris, United States
minister to Sweden, in a speech be
fore the Chicago Chamber of Com
merce. "Our legation at Stockholm is
only about six miles from Germany
and, therefore we have means of
knowing conditions as they exist,
economically and otherwise, in var
ious parts of Germany," he said.
"The Gerjnans, for instance, are re
ceiving great quantities of oil from
I'oland, Galicia and Roumania.
They had more oil in Germany
when I left than they knew what to
do "with.
"Germany has been accustomed
to buying iier meat in the form of
cattle from Sweden. Often she
Ibought 6,000 head of cattle in a
week. Then she stopped these pur
chases in Sweden and bought else
where. The reason she gave was that
the cattle of Denmark, where she
then bought, were fatter and ir bet
ter condition. I ask you, if the Ger
mans were starving why should
not they buy all the meat they could
get? I think that shows the econo
mic situation better than anything
else.
"In Russia when I left there were
still 150,000 German prisoners, who
had been in Siberia for a long time.
They were gradually sneaking out
and joining the lines. There were
more Austrian prisoners, who num
bered nearly 2,000,000. I mention
this because one often reads that
the fighting power, the man power,
of" Germany is depleted. If that were
true, how is it that Germany can
send between 50,000 and 100,000 men
into 'Finland merely to watch the
frontiers in the Russian situation?"
London Papers Think
Fan of G erman Nation,
is Now Impending
London, Oc 17. Rumors rela
tive to the course Germany may
take toward replying to the note
from President Wilson form the
main features of this morning's pa
pers. Some are convinced that Ger
many's unconditional surrender is
coming. Although the statement is
sued at the foreign office last night
shows that yesterday's rumors were
premature, extraordinary reports
concerning internal conditions in
Gerrnaiy are printed. Some news
tapers take it for granted ttiat Em
peror William will abdicate. The
Express says that for some time he
hav been sending his valuables to
Holland.
S'ime editorials express the view
that the disappearance of the em
peror is immaterial.
Says the Telegraph, "It is what
will be substituted for his insane
and disastrous rule that matters."
The Express claims to nave trust
worthy information to the effect
that Germany's surrender is immi
nent, adding:
"Semi-official information of an as
tonishing kind has ieacned England
indicating a desperate political po
sition in Germany. A great civil up
heaval is beginning.. The socialists
of Germany, fearing that anarchy is !.
aDout to set in, have prepared a
scheme of government to take the
reins if, or when, the kaiser abdi
cates, in order that it may exercise
an immediate steadying influence."

Authorities.: y; W
According to carefully compiled
statistics it is an indisputable faift?
that ) the Spanish Influenza; Epidem-t
ic which is now sweeping all "parts '
of the country is daily claiming fr
more victims than German" bullets
on the battle fronts of Europe." A)-
though civil and military authorltiei
have succeeded, in checking the dis
ease in some localities, it is growing
worse in others and continues to
spread at an alarming rate. That
the disease can be avoided there is
no longer any doubt. According to
leading authorities the powers of
resistance of the human system can
be so perfected that it can throw
off almost any infection, not even
excepting Snanish Influenza, which
is one of the most contagions dis
eases known. -: . .
It is persons who are suffering
from lowered vitality, who are "weak
and rundown and who have not the
strength to throw it off who are th
earliest victims. Persons who have
bad colds, 'who are suffpr'Hjr from
catarrhal troubles, or inflammation
of th mucous membranes are' 'es
pecially susceptible, as the inflamed
mucous- membrane linings of the
nose" and throat are an open door
to the germs. This condition Is al
most always accompanied by ' a
weakened condition of the system.-
If you are suffering from any of
these svmptoms, nothing on earth
will build you up and strengthen
you like Tanlac, which contains the
most powerful tonic Bronertiea
knoTt-W to science.
This statement is easily Vproven
by tvevfact that Tanlac is now hay
ing the greatest sale of any system
tonic in the history of medicine. In
less than four years' time over Ten
Million Bottles have been sold and
the demand is constantly increas
ing. Thousands are using it daily
for the above troubles with the
most astonishing and gratifying re
suits.
Tanlac increases your strength
and weight and creates a .good,
healthy appetite for nourishing
food. It keeps-you physically , fit

perform its proper function In the
natural way.
In connection with the Tanla
