THE LcjE: OilAHA, WiiDISDA X , XjxCuLni 6, 1918. SENATOR LODGE VflYV wiirt K' A vn i v iiu i l. iu n ! CLUMSY TRAP Only Answer Should Be De , mand for Unconditional Surrender, Declares Re publican Senator. Washington, Oct. 22. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, republican leader, in a statement today branded Germany's latest note as a "clumsy trap, awkwardly set, to involve us in diplomatic discussions," and said if it is answered at all it should be by demands only for unconditional sur render. ' "It seems to be unbelievable," said Senator Lodge- "that any one should be taken in by the last vjerman note. It is 'varnished over with a little false flattery, directed to the presi dent and the people of the United States, which can deceive no one. It will not bear the slightest analy v sis." "They desire to discuss details What they call details are the vital issues of the war. No attention need be given their denial of illegal and inhumane actions. Only a day or two ago they took 15,000 women and girls out of Lille when they abandoned that city. Is that a mil itary act, in accordance with inter national law? They wish to refer the destruction of our women and children on the Lusitania to a neu tral commission. The American peo ple do not intend to have the de - cision of any commission on such a question as "that. The American people have not forgotten the di rection of the German minister at Buenos Aires to 'sink and leave no trace.' "Of reparation and it must be very large there is not a word. "Of course all they say about ; changing their government is pure ' camouflage. There has been no f election in Germany. It is the same old reichstag, governed by the same forces and interests. 'The president's reply to the Austrian note was complete, and u liver.. . .removed. I do not think there should be any reply to this German note, but if there is let it be simply that we demand the ' 'e terms which z allies forced upon garia an unconditional surrender, 'Unconditional surrender' easily id and w:l. be understood ! all the world. "There is something repulsive in having the invaders of Belgium and the makers of the villainous peace which they force on Rus sia and Roumania talking about jus tice and ..onor." Money Now Being Raised to Restore Burned Towns St. Paul. Oct. 22. Appointment . of an investment board to furnish funds for the rehabilitation of the fire-swept region in northeastern Minnesota was decided upon at a meeting here today which was at tended by members of the state public safety tommission and a re lief committee, bankers and others. ' The investment board, which will have Governor Burnuist, Attorney General Hilton and directors of the federal farm loan bank of St. Paul . as ex-officio members, will open its investment plan to the pub lic and loan the funds provided , to settlers of the fire devastated dis trict. The plan is designed chiefly to afford the settlers a market for v their second mortgages to enable them to regain their feet through their own efforts and without ac cepting charity. j - -The investors or buyers of the , certificates will receive 6 per cent interest. The borrowers will pay 6 per cent interest and the loans will mature in not to exceed 10 years. " Men Indicted for Steamer Eastland Disaster Freed Chicago, II!., Oct. 22. State ' cases in criminal court against men indicted in connection with the steamer Eastland disaster of July 24, 1915, were cleared from the . dockets today. The state against Walter K. Greenebaum, manager of ' the Indiana Transportation com ' pany, charterer of the boat, was dismissed on motion of the state's attorney and manslaughter charges against four officials of the St. Joseph-Chicago Steamship company I VAvere dismissed with leave to rein , state. Those affected by the latter ) proceeding were George T. Arnold. .' president of the company; William , H. Hull, vice president and man ager; Walter C. Steele, secretary and treasurer and Ray W. Davis, as sistant secretary-treasurer. J Shortly after the disaster the fed eral government made unsuccessful v attempts to try the men, according to the state's attorney, and this re- " suited in the state dropping the " cases. . , Report of Yankee Crucified Confirmed by Soldier Letter t Washington, Oct. 22. Senator . Poindexter of Washington read to r. the senate a letter from Dr. T. H. Howard of St. "Louis, stating that a . brother of Sergt. A. C Cole of East - Liverpool, 0., who served with the Canadian forces in France, had af .davits to prove the widely circu lated story that the sergeant was crucified tinon a door with German bayonets. "Senator Poindexter pro duced the letter during a speech crit icising the committee on public in formation which he said was seek ing to spread the belief that Ger man atrocities have been discontin ued. The committee recently denied the crucifixion story. Joseph Moran, Alleged Bank Robber, is Again Captured ' El Paso, Texas, Oct. 22.

TANKS PROVE SAVERS OF LIFE IN CIS BUTTLES Thousand Casualties Daily Are Prevented by the Use of These Modern Engines of War. London, Oct. 22. (Associated Press) Thirty-six tanks one bat talion save at least a thousand cas ualties every day they are in action. The British war experts who made this statement while discussing the present allied offensive continued: "We have used in the fighting to date only a fraction of the men the enemy has been accustomed to em ploy for similar offensives and we have made up the difference largely with tanks. Since the ultimate vic tory will fall to the side with the biggest reserves, the more tanks we have the more assured our victory. "It has been commonly thought that a direct hit by a shell means de struction for the tank. Not always. A fortnight ago a tank received seven direct hits from a German 'Seventy-seven' gun, but the tank finished its job and trundled back to its line's. "Another in the Cambrai region went over a rise directly in front of a German howitzer. The howitzer fired from fifty yards away and a shell tore off part of the tank's side. But the tank went on, driving right over the howitzer and putting it out of acion." Recently Major General Seely, deputy minister of munitions, said: "I speak the literal truth when I say that I, and hundreds of others it has been my privilege to lead, would be dead now but for the tanks. They probably saved Amiens. They certainly saved us." Wisconsin Town to Probe Refusals to Buy Bonds Fond Du Lac, Wis., Oct. 22. John Doe proceedings were insti tuted today by Louis P. Zeeke, county chairman of the Fourth Lib erty loan campaign in an effort to secure informatioin as to why cer tain firms and individuals did not subscribe as liberally as it was thought they should to the loan. In some sections, it was said, not a single subscription was recorded -and evidence will be sought of an understanding among certain per sons not to buy bonds. Anyone found to have obstructed the loan will be prosecuted, it was declared. Fond Du Lac county's quota was $8,701,350, which was oversubscribed i $88,350 not withstanding the failure of several townships to meet heir allotment. Belgium Towns Are Smashed to Bits by War Operations Dover, Oct. 22. British officers returning from Belgium say that while Ostend has not been badly damaged, other coast towns have been completely wrecked. Middle kerke is likened to Pompeii. "It has been deliberately smashed to pieces," said one of the officers. "The place, has by reason of its military importance suffered mor than any other town outside the firing zone. It is just as if an earth, quake struck it. Westende and Nieu port are almost as bad. Dunkirk has suffered from more than 400 air raids and has been terribly smashed about."
