But he is 77 years old, eating out his energy as the war Therefore, next to Clemenceau An dre Tardieu. If France had the same form of republican government as the United States has they would be talking about Tardieu for president when Raymond Poincare's seven-year term ends in 1920. Hut the presidency of France is an honorary job. The prime minister rules. Tardieu is only 41.

He was born in Faris. He has served France as diplomat, journalist, professor, soldier and emissary to, America. Since last July he has been welding Franco-American friendship closer and closer as chief of the high commission of Franco-American affairs, a post now made permanent by a portfolio in the French cabinet Man of Action. Tardieu has a well-balanced, comprehensive mind. He's quick on the trigger, as Clemenceau is; he's a man of uotinn nf irwfnnt flpf isirtnc JTa'u wittv and jolly again like Clemenceau.

And he's not at all of the old type of politi-; cian nor is Clemenceau. in spite of his years. Before the war Tardieu was sent to the United States to lecture at Har- vard. He came back and wrote a book on America. It wasn't like other books Europeans have written about America.

Washington. Nov.

19. Knowledge in possession of officials here of conditions in Germany during the war was so accurate that the American general titaff had computed, many weeks in advance, almost the exact date on which the breaking point would be reached. A chart which was hung today in Secretary Baker's office shows the fluctuation in the "morale of the German nation." from August, 1914, to the present month. ssuming the German government i.ae m.i 100 per cem support irom ue iH-opie ai ine oegiimuig oi me ar, i ne iri vteruiau 1 ell and rose under the influence of various factors. These influences in- not only the military situation of the armies and the results of the Bubmarine campaign, but the m.an-! imity of purpose aided by the differ-; vnt groups in the reichstag and the eco- nomic conditions of the country.

So remarkably accurate was the information upon which, the chart was based that the "morale reached the zero lioint between November 10 and 15. The chart indicates clearly that practically every major operation of the German military forces was influenced by the state of public mind at home. Thus, General Mackensen's attack in the Balkans, the declaration unlimited submarine warfare, the Italian offensive, and the advance on the western front, which was met and stopped by American marines at Chateau Thierry, were all inaugurated when the morale line showed dangerous slumps. In each case initial Nuc-esses moved the hopes of the German ieople, as portrayed by the little dotted line up toward normal. Additional evidence of the remarkable extent to which allied intelligence bureaus obtained and tabulated military information is shown by a great war map in the office of General March.

This map gives the entire western front in great detail, and locates not only every allied unit, but those of he enemy down to detached regiments, the composition of the opposition forces, their commanders and, in most cases, their headquarters. Opposite 'ach German army unit the map shows a list of the "used" and reserve organi zations. On November 11, when the armistice was signed, long lists of divisions which had been entirely used up were noted, but the reserves had disap-leared entirely, withthe single exception of the army group In Belgium. Here two fresh German divisions were 1 icing held for use against the renewal King Albert's drive toward his capital. BILL HAS REALLY QUIT German Government Will Publish Decree to End Suspense.

Paris, Nov. 19. (By the Associated I'ress) In order to end the discussion as to 'whether William Hohenzollern has really abdicated as German em-jieror, it is understood the German government intends to publish his decree of abdication. This consists of an at-leiupt to justify the war on the ground of German's isolation. The abdication decree, according to the correspondent at Zurich of L'Infor-: jnatlon.

The political situation is peculiar because tliere is only one man in the field and there is no concerted opposition to him. All factions, approve of Premier Lloyd-George's reconstruction plans as far as they go. What opposition exists is divided into two sections. The first is the old liberal organization led by former Premier Asquith which opposes the election as untimely principally be- oni 4ft wr rvnr tho. r.l.!W have the greatest claim to a voice in the settlement of the war.

The other section is the labor party which lias its own program, including the nationalization of railways, mines and other public works with compensation to the owners.
