v\ f *
Washington, Nov, 13? Appeals
of the German armistice envoys
to Marshal Foch for modifica
tion of the terms of surrender
were of little avail. This is in
dicated by the amended terms,
which were - published today.
Close survey of the amendments
show few deviations in essential
details from the original drirft
which was announced Monday.
The* amended terms qi some
respects favor the defeated
enemy but other pro visions com
pletely offset the slight favors
craned. Chief among the chang ]

ther provides that the German
saWarine fleet must be surren

Another of the eighteen terms
which we: ^ amended provides
thai the designated units of the
German fleet which are. to bef

More to be Pledged*
The last coll to s?cur?the balance
of the State's allctment in War Sav
ings will be made in a house-to-house
canvass to & between
27 and December 6. The State stSl
lacks $11,600,000 having pledged its
War Savings allotment
At d meeting of War Savings work
era to be held on Thanksgiving Day,
every township and ward will be di
vided into sections and each section

sers. Between Thanksgiving Day and,
Friday, December 0, every head of a
family and other persons with air in
dependent income- will be asked to
pledge his part, of the IlliWO, 0*0 de

Another reason why the house-to

aeeessary Is that citizens may per?$t
their Wor Savings records. It has friphi
found thaH thousands of families have
bought Stamp# for which they would
not get any credit for the reason that
