UNITED STATES STILL IS PAYING COSTS OF WAR Armistice Signed 12 Years Ago Today, But Debt Burden Lingers. BY JOSEPH H. BAIRD Cnitrd Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.—A dozen rears ago today a group of tired and nerve-strained men sat in a private car on a railroad aiding and signed peace terms which brought the World war to an end and released nearly 2.000,000 Americans from muddy trenches. When Marshal Ferdinand Foch and Herr Erzberger agreed on armistice terms in the early morning of Nov. 11, 1918. they stopped the war's actual slaughter, I today, twelve years later, the monetary, physical and spiritual * ils of the conflict still were l .% .. _cted. The twelfth anniversary of the armistice finds Americans still paying war costs which to now have totaled nearly $38,000,000,000. More than 32.000 former soldiers still are in government hospitals. Hundreds of ships built to carry war-time commerce float idly in rivers and bays. Heroes in Civil Life On the credit side of the ledger, the United States has the nucleus of an army which can be filled in without much delay to affoiJ a fighting force of 1,000,000 men in a national emergency. And unliquidated assets resulting from the war are valued at $23,400,000. Meanwhile, our outstanding war heroes whose names were emblazoned everywhere during the conflict have taken up the pursuits of civil life and are “doing their bit.” to revert to a wartime expression, in such diverse occupations as commercial aviation and superintending hospitals. Some of them, however still are in the army. Foch Read Conditions When the allies heard that a German commission, headed by Herr Erzberger, was en route to seek a stay in hostilities, a reception was arranged for it. Marshal Foch, with Admiral Sir Rosslyn Wemyes as his naval associate, set out for Compiegne. Their private train was set on a siding in the gloomy forest of Laigue near the village of Rethondes. There, on the morning of Nov. 9, the delegates were received. Foch and Erzberger fenced verbally for some time, until finally the French commander-in-chief demanded: “Do you ask for an armistice?” “Yes,” saic| the German. Foch then read the conditions on which an armistice would be granted. When he had concluded, the German pondered, apparently stunned by the magnitude of the decision before him. Courier Sent to Spa A courier was dispatched to Spa to present the armistice terms to high G<#man officials. Meanwhile, the German delegates pleaded with Foch to modify the demands he had presented. These negotiations were cut short when at 9 on the night of Nov. 10, a radiogram arrived from the German chancellor. He accepted the allied terms. Thus a war which virtually had wrecked Europe, had taken millions of lives, and had cost the world hundreds of billions of dollars was brought to an end. Official peace terms were not concluded between the United States and Germany, however, until July. 1921. We did not sign the Treaty of Versailles which brought peace to the rest of Europe.

DEMOCRATS TO DRAFT BILLS Experts to Frame “Planks’ for State Organization. Democratic leaders will be invited to draft the bills called for in the party's platform, for presentation to the 1931 legislature. Tlie drafts will be discussed at a general conference of legislatorselect to be held here within the next three weeks, according to R. Earl Peters, state chairman. He has selected Evans Woollen, Indianapolis banker and “favorite son” choice of Indiana Democrats, for President in 1928, to write the income tax measure called for in the platform. This tax plank bill will contain exemptions not less liberal than in the national act. The voters’ registration bill is to be written by John S. McFadden oi Rockville, prominent in the drafting of the platform. The bill to abolish the fee system end place all local officers on a salary basis is to be framed by Dan W. Sims of Lafayette, veteran Democratic leader. So far no one has been selected to write the old-age pension bill. Peters stressed the point that no attempt to dictate to assembly members would be made by the state committee, but the purpose in having experts frame the bills is to render them “joker-proof.” .

viewed briefly the hero’s brief record at the front. Luke saw exactly seventeen days of action at the front, and in that brief period he brought down fourteen enemy balloons and five planes. It gained him the title of the “Balloon Buster.” The seventeenth day at the front proved the last for the Phoenix boy. He was caught by eight enemy planes returning from one of his lone voyages into enemy territory and was forced down with a crippled ship. After landing his plane behind the lines, he was surrounded by Germans. Luke did not surrender. He fought to the finish with a pistol, kiling six of the enemy before he dropped, his body riddled from a volley of machine gun bullets. The sculptor brought out the spirit of Luke in his work. The statue shows a rugged American, poised for action, his eyes toward the heavens and a lifted arm indicative of the Luke desire to get high into the war torn skies to do battle. Bronze plaques adorning the base of the statue bear the names of all Arizonians killed in action. - The state of Arizona, in honor of its fallen son, made possible the dedication of the statue. The ninth legislative assembly . approriated SIO,OOO for the monument.
