The nominee, in pre- vious speeches today had declared that he had no apologies to make for his attacks on the administration for its foreign policy, had characterized as “very cruel and unwarrantable” the suggestion that a vote for him meant a vote for war, and had declared his opposition to ‘a muddle of meddle” in America’s foreign relations. 3 Guardian of National Honor “The executive is the guardian of the national honor,” Mr. Hughes de- clared. “He has a very wide discre- tion in the management of our foreign relations.

WHY GERMANS EVACUATED FORT VAUX AT VERDUN Sacrifices for Its Retention Out of Proportion to Its Value. Berlin, Nov. 2. (By Wireless to The Associated Press via Sayville).—Fort Vaux at Verdun was evacuated on the night of November 1-2 in accordance with pre-arranged plans, according to the German military leaders who in- dicated that they considered the sac- rifices involved in its retention out of proportion to its value in the present German strategic/scheme. The Associated’ Press representative was informed on the eveninz of Nov. 1 from German headquarters of the impending evacuation and the reti | ment of the German lines fo positions better adapted to defense and at the same time was given an explanation of the withdrawal. Forts Douaumont and Vaux, it was alleged, formed such a material ele- ment in the defense of Verdun as long as they remained with unimpaired ar- mament in French hands that they had to be put out of action in order to cripple the fortress &nd once this was accomplished the ruins of the forts, with the armamen’s removed, possessed no such importance to the Germans and_served chiefly as tar- gets for the French artillery. Now that Fort Douaumont had passed again into French possession, Fort Vaux no longer, in the opinion of the German leaders, justified the heavy sacrifices necessary to retain the ground about the fort, which is ill-adapted to defense against attacks from the south and west. Fort Vaux was therefore abandoned and the Ger- man lines retired to positions less ex- posed to the French artillery. BEN HOGAN, HUMANITARIAN, g IS DEAD IN CHICAGO.
