WANT CONDITIONS MODIFIED
| By United Press.)
LONDON, Nov. 19.—The following
statement has been addressed by the
German government through its wire-
less agency, to America, France, Italy
and Great Britain:
"Unless the armistice conditions are
modified, it will be impossible, in view
of the close association between the
left bank of the Rhine and remainder
of Germany, for us to continue to
exist. It is certain that the peaceful
developments now beginning will im
1 mediately be overthrown and we in
: evitably will advance into Bolshevistic ,
conditions, which must endanger
! neighboring states."

TWO WEEKS SPENT
ON BIG BATTLE SCEN <
The forests of Cahuenga Canyo ,
near Los Alleles, echoed for two
weeks to the resounding noise of bat-
tle, while Director R. A. Walsh, of
the William Fox studios, was taking
his battle scenes for the mammoth
production starring William Farnum
in "The Conqueror."
During these fourteen days, 600
horses raced excitedly back and forth
across the spacious fields adjoining
the canyon. Four hundred and fifty
Mexicans, a like number of Indian
braves, and a hundred men and wo-
men representing settlers on the bor-!
der, were carried daily to the grounds
where they went through all the mo-
tions of warfare fiercer and more pri-
mitive than that which has been rag-
ing in Europe.
Studied research rewarded Director!
Walsh with an exact knowledge of the
artillery of the 1830 period, and he
personally superintended the building
of twenty-three cannons of Revolu-
tionary type for use in the battle.
Nine of these were actually cast from
iron end were just as useful for dan\-
.(re as their prototypes. Fifteen
other- w «-e wooden, and were light-
ed with . are puffs for good photo-
