LONDON BELIEVES GERMANY YIELDS Interprets Ludendorff's Resignation An Acceptance of Allies' Aimastice Terms London, Oct. 27 The resignation of General Ludendorff is popularly interpreted here as heralding Ger many's acceptance of the allies' ar mistice terms. Whether this inter pretation is correct, the resignation of the first quartermaster-general cannot fail seriously to affect the morale of the German army. Rumors have been current for some time past of a disagreement between Field Marshal von Hmdenburg and Ludendorff and that von Hindenburg had approved of the peace negotiations. London via Montreal, Oct. 27 It is persistently reported that riots are of daily occurance in various paits of Germany, resulting in conflicts with the police and loss of life. The lack of raw material .especially for explos ives, is hampering munition works. It is stated that Krupps have been compelled to dismiss many workers. Berne, Oct. 27 The resignation of General von Ludendorff has caused a thorough sensation throughout Swit zerland anr' the central empires and is commented, on as a sign that Ger man militarism is really abdicating. Among the German and Austrain pco pies anger and indignation is in creasing over the fact that the mili tary situation has been so long con cealed or wrongly presented. Paris via Montreal, Oct. 27, (Reu ter's) The Echo de Paris says that General Luoendorff resigned because he saw the impossibility of continu ing the war. The Matin says: "Germany will represent the retire ment of Ludendorff as a new proof of the subordination of the military to the civil power, but this will de ceive no one. Ludendorff, who four months ago made the Reichstag and the German people believe that the fall of . Peris and the surrender of France was imminent, now disappears because he is beaten and a desperate Germany is faced with capitulation." cumJ u' Bui LSLfQ li When everyone is asked by the gov ernment to save and conserve, one of the most simple ways would be to SAVE that old Furniture.
