We will not remian a part of a state which has no Justification -for existence and which, refusing" to" accept the fundamental principles of modern world organization, remains only an artificial and immoral political structure, hindering every movement toward democratic and social progress.''*

captured by the allies yesterday. Since the fighting began there on Thursday morning, the Germans have been forced back more than four miles.

British warships have come to the assistance of the allied land forces in Belgium and are shelling the Germans who are trying to escape through the narrow neck of land t^etwegn Bruges and the Dutch frontier..

Relentless pursuit "of the retreating Germans in Belgium and down along the battle front as far as the area just to the west of Valenciennes continues. Virtually all of the coast has been cleared of the enemy and allied patrols are east" of Bruges. *.

German engineers have been working on the line "of defense running through Ghent and along the Scheldt river and it is probable that the British, French arid Belgians will be forced to fight very hard if they make much of an impression on this position.

Although the Germans have lost a large number of men and guns, they appear to have extricated the trulk of their forces from the threatening position in which they .were left by the collapse of th# line north of the Lya river.

French and Americans along the Oise river have forged jahead slightly during the past day but they ^ind the task of advancing a difficult one. Here the Germans are holding their line stubbornly while the forces and material in the Laon salient can be moved back in safety. The advance here. however, seems to be gaining in momentum in the direction of Ilirson, one of the principal railroad junctions behind the German lines.

Along the Aisne, Gen, Berthelot seems to be held up^-by the enemy. No progress on this portion of the line has been reported recently.

Going Ahead In Argonne. Further east, however, Gen. Gouraud's men have advanced west of the Argonne forest and have taken quite a Jong step to the north of Vouzieres. This advance will tend to render unstable the German positions in the foreHt and may assist the Americana fighting east of the Argonne

The American front has the scene of constant patrol fighting while Gen. Pershing's men are moving ahead slightly in Loges apd Bantheville woods. There has been concerted attacks In this region since the assault on Thursday and the Americans moved up to Grand Pre and took valuable ground to the east Of that villages.-'

May Delay Advance.*

Thtr« is a probability that the Germans, by flooding the country east of Bruges, will be able to delay the advancing Belgians for a time but It would seem that their line is so bent by the furious onslaught of the allies in Flanders that it must be readjusted for a long distance down in France.

LILLE IS LEFT BEHIND.

Gorman Rear Guards Unable To Cheek British Fifth Army. WITH THE ALLIED ARMIES IN BELGIUM, Friday, Oct. 18.—(By the Associated Press.)—Lille Is fast being left behind by the advancing fifth British army. Tn spite of German postfc established fiorth of Koubalx and Turcoing these rich manufacturing cities have been taken.

The Germans blew up the bridges leading into Bruges and left Strong rear guards there, but these forces were sacrificed by the enemy while the main body of his troops moved eastward from the city and those near the coast hastened to escape.

Today has been fine and clear and the Belgian airmen have again come into their own. The Belgian sky has been literally ffili of them and they have worked great havoc with bombs and bullets among the enemy forces fleeing through the gap between Bruges and the Dutch, frontier.

More cannons have been brought up afld all last night and today they have been pumping shells into the bottle neck through which the Germans are retreating. The number of Germans killed in this area since yesterday is of course, undetermined, but from the amount of explosive projectiles dropped on them, their losses must be tremendous. In addition, the French cavalry ttftVe been making dashes here and there and has also taken its tolL

Few Large Subscriptions. Among the larger subscriptions Friday was an additional purchase of $25,000 by the Wabash Realty company, and an additional $15,000 from Fred B. Smith.

The manufacturer*' efimrnlttae an additional $7,500, while the retail merchants added $5,100 to their total, the wholesale merchants $5,000, and the office* buildings committee $7,400. Fayett township reported $4,500, the Collett school district $1,800, and the Harrison school district $6,100.

When business was ended at the headquarters in the Chamber Of Commerce last night it was found that only $121,850 had been brought in during the day and that the total sales amounted only to $4,886,150.

Liberty guards today will make a final effort to "smoke out" the wealthy slackers. Lists of men able to buy more have been furnished members of the local military organisation and a visit will be made today upon these men. One of the Liberty guard members said this morning, "We may not get anything more from the men on the list given my^squad but I can assure you thai if we don't there ia going to be a bunch of "slackers" experience one of the most grilling halfhours of their life before we get through with them.'*

The Saturday morning subscriptions reported at headquarters amounted to $fi9,000. Of this amount $25,000 was from small subscribers, while $44,000 was subscribed by the ISqultable Lite Assurance company.

&1LUON DOLLARS SHORT.

Only One Federal District Nad Reached Quota Friday Night. WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.—More than a billion dollars is needed to put tho Fourth Liberty Loan over the top. And the nation has only until midnight tonight to subscribe it.

Only one of the twelve federal reserve districts,—St. Louis—has attained Its quota and only three have passed the three-quarters mark. Atlanta is the lowest with only a little more than half. 'fTicial figures from the treasury department, however, did not cover all sales for yesterday and Consequently most districts are nearer their goals than appears on the face of the returns. But a stupendous Job remains to the army of two million workers in the campaign and they plan to keep steadily at it until midnight.

Every Dollar Needed*

MoSt banks over th# country Wlff fthnain open late tonight to receive last minute subscriptions, but there is no probability of the complete amount of the loan being known until late next week. This very fact has caused officials to impress upon the people that they must not hold back subscriptions in the belief that the loan will be oversubscribed. Every dollar is needed to put the loan over the top, they declare.

In setting out to raise six billion dollars, America undertook the greatest war financing campaign in the history of the world. Officials said the nation had never failed in any undertaking and that it would not fail in this one. •,*.
