PRESS COMMENT ON NEW CRISIS
BERLIN. Jan. 31. via London, Feb. 1.
Chancellor von Bethmann - Hollweg
and other ministers attended an Impor
tant meeting- of the ways and means
committee of the Reichstag today, at
which the entire war situation waa
cone over and new steps planned by
the central powers were considered.
The Chancellor opened the sitting- with
epeech, of which the keynote words
were:
"We have been challenged to fight
to the end. We accept the challenge,
we stake everything and we shall be
victorious."
Chancellor von Bethmann - Hollweg
last year, he had opened unrestricted ""wui-i -reiaeni, om iei. us ae
Bubmarlne war, and why again. In Sep- ; mni Deacc at the same time,
tember, "according to the unanimous San, Francisco Democrat Germany
Judgment of the political and military was forced to use the weapon given
authorities the question was not con- her to protect herself the U-boat. The
EDITORS of American newspapers ex
pressed themselves as follows yes
terday on the Berlin note and the new
crisis precipitated thereby: .
Salt Lake Telegram This Is an ex
traordinary situation and extraordin
ary methods must be undertaken. It Is
no time for Jingoes to howl for a more
determined stand; the country already
has had ill enough of this war. There
is more than one way to protect the
citizens of the country besides sending
them to death.
Ogden Standard Germany's note
calls for a stinging reply from the
United States. It is a challenge to Wil
son's warning as to strict accounta
bility. It is a reverting to barbarity
to the poisoning of wells In. warfare.
Oakland Tribune No longer does
Germany pretend to a willingness to
conform to the rules of international
law practices. Germany has snapped
its finger in derision at the nations
who abide by the law and who havo
consistently pleaded for observance of
the law. President Wilson's words now
have been brought to the supreme test.
They mean refusal longer to tolerate
disregard of law which involves the loss
of non-combatant lives, or they mean
nothing at all. The Washington Gov
ernment has suffered so many viola
tions of neutral rights by enemies of
Germany that a forceful protest against
the resumption of ruthless submarine
warfare may be unneutral.
Peace Demanded at Any Price.
Fresno (Cal.) Herald We must face
the situation as best we can, arguing
not whether the German action Is Justi
fied or not, but whether we can main
tain our security. When we re-elected
Mr. Wilson we spoke plainly against
war. "He kept us out of war" was the
most effective Democratic campaign
slogan. Now let Mr. Wilson keep us
out of war. Let us offer an undiluted
sldered ripe for decision." In this con
nection the Chancellor repeated his
previous utterance that as soon as he.
In agreement with the supreme army
command, reached the conviction that
ruthless submarine war would bring
Germany nearer a victorious peace, then
the U-boat war would be started.
Last Acute Stage Forced.
"By this development of the sltua
tlon, the decision concerning subma
rine warfare has been forced into the
last acute stage," said the Chancellor, i
"The question . of U-boat war. as
members of the Reichstag will remem
ber, has occupied us three times in
this committee; namely, within March,
May and September of last year. On
each occasion, in an exhaustive state
ment, I expounded the points for and
against in this queston. I emphasized
on each, occasion that I was speaking
pro tempore and not as a supporter in
principle or opponent In principle of
the unrestricted employment of U-boats,
but in consideration of the military,
political and economic situation as a
whole.
"I have always proceeded from the
standpoint whether U-boats would
bring us nearer victorious peace or
not. Every means, I said in March,
that was calculated to shorten the
war constituted the most humane pol
icy to follow. When the most ruthless
methods are considered best calculated
to lead us to swift victory, I said, then
they must be employed.
Number of Submarines Increased
"This moment has now arrived," he
continued. "Last Autumn the time
was not yet ripe, but today the mo
ment has come when, with the greatest
prospect of success, we can undertake
the enterprise. We must, therefore, not
wait any longer.
"Where has there been any change
In the situation?" the Chancellor
asked. "In the first place, the most
Important fact of all is that the num
ber of our submarines has been very
considerably Increased as compared
with last Spring, and thereby a firm
basis for success has been established.
The second co-decisive reason is the
bad cereal harvest of the world. This
fact already confronts England, France
and Italy with serious difficulties,
which, by means of unrestricted U
boat war, will be brought to a point
of unbearableness. The coal question,
too. is a vital question in war. Al
ready it is critical, as you know. In
Italy and France. Our submarines will
make it still more critical.
Enemy's Difficulties Multiply.
"To this must be added, especially
as regards England, the supply of ore
for the production of munitions. In the
widest sense, and of timber for coal
mines. The enemy's difficulties are
rendered still more acute by the In
creasing lack of enemy cargo space.
In this respect time and U-boat and
cruiser warfare have prepared the
group for the decisive blow.
"The entente suffers owing to lack of
cargo space. The lack makes Itself
felt in Italy and France no less than
In England. If we may now venture
to estimate the positive advantages of
unrestricted U-boat war at a much
higher value than last Spring, the
dangers which arise for us from U-boat
war have correspondingly decreased
fcince that time."
The Chancellor discussed in detail
the political situation and then referred
to military affairs, as follows:
"A few days ago Field Marshal voc
Ilindenburg described the situation to
rno thus: 'Our front stands firm on
all sides. We have everywhere the
reauisite reserves. The spirit of our
troops is good and confident.' The mil
Itary situation as a whole permits us
to accept all the consequeuoes which
unrestricted U-boat war may bring, and
as this U-boat war is the means of in
juring our enemies the most grievously,
it must be begun."
Iiuinber Uses Are Shown.
A survey of the commercial uses of
Douglas fir was presented last night
hfnr a meeting of lumbermen and
lumber salesmen by O. P. M. Goss, con
milting engineer of the West Coast
Lumbermen's Association. Methods of
creosoting were explained and stress
was laid on the value and application
of lumber In wood-stave pipelines,
flumes, silos and paving blocks. The
last talk of the series of lectures will
be given by Mr. Goss next Thursday
night. It will be illustrated with lan
tern slides, showing the proper and
improper uses of timbers.
enemy did not wish otherwise, notwith
standing the good offices of the Presi
dent of the United States in attempting
to arrange a peace without victory.
Now there will be no peace without
victory, but war to the bitter end. and
when victorious Germany does accept
peace it will be such as will satisfy the
entire world except the vanquished.
Bakersfleld Californlan It is certain
that Germany will not be allowed to
carry out the policy it now announces
and still remain upon a friendly foot

ation of intention is, in itself. Justifica

the German Ambassador his dismissal.

E
First Service Which United States
Can Render to Cause of Peace,
Says Senator, Is to Pre
serve Its Own.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 1. Congress
worked today to clear the congested
legislative calendar, undisturbed by
the grave situation brought about by
uermany s declaration of ruthless sub
marine warfare. . There was an air of
restrained excitement at the Capitol
but the leaders on both sides seemed
disposed to wait calmly for action by
President Wilson and to suppress any
hasty utterances that might embarrass
him in t"ie orisis.
In the House the only public refer
ence to the situation fell from the lips
of Majority Leader Kitchin, who
pleaded for a.reconsecration of patriot
ism to the Union.
It is Incumbent in this grave time
upon every American citizen who loves
his country," he said, "and Is doubly
incumbent upon the American repre
sentatives In this House to do every
thing that will promote In this hour
National unity. National love. National
fraternity.
President Not to Be Hampered.
Senators Lodge and McCumber. Re
publicans, delivered prepared speeches
on President Wilson's world peace ad
dress, prefacing them with words of
caution. Senator Lodge declared that
the German note had heaped upon the
President a great responsibility, arid
added: "'No word shall fall from my
lips which might in any way possibly
embarrass him at such a time."
Reports were current during the day
that the President was preparing to
address Congress tomorrow or Satur
day, but no word had been sent from
the White House regarding plans for
a Joint session, nor had the President
tonight called the foreign relations
committee in conference. Senator
Hitchcock, acting chairman of the com
mittee, said after a brief call at the
White House that the situation was
indeed grave. He did not see the
President but thought a conference
might be held after the arrival from
St. Louis of Chairman Stone.

antes of Washington and Jefferson.
The first service which the Lnited
States can render to the cause of peace,'
said the Senator, "is to preserve its
own This can be done in only one
way by the most absolute and scrupu
lous observance of every treaty or
agreement that we enter into; by the
termination of all treaties for arbitra
tion which we know well we should

time of stress regard; and lastly, by
the establishment of such National de
fenses as to insure our country, so far
as it can be done, from wanton attack
"The next thing to which we ought
to address ourselves on the conclusion
of this war should be the rehabilita
tion and re-establishment of interna
tional law. We should try also within
the necessary and natural limits to ex
tend the use of voluntary arbitration.
We can also do much in urging a gen
eral reduction of armaments." -
SWEDEN IS DEEPLY CONCERNED
Blockade If Effective Will Put Na
tion on Short Rations. i.
STOCKHOLM, via London, Feb. 1.
The Swedish government was informed
of the proclamation of the German sub
marine blockade Wednesday evening,
and the time has been too short to per
mit of any decision regarding measures
to be taken by Sweden.
The Associated Press, however, learns
that the responsible statesmen are
gravely concerned over the possible
consequences. Quite apart from all po
litical considerations, the blockade, if
at all 'effective, will deal a heavy blow
to Sweden's economic life. If long
XCEPT for a continuation of the
feeling of unrest caused by Ger
many's announcement of a campaign of
unrestricted submarine activity, there
is little of Interest in the war news
of the day. While Lloyd's reports the
sinking of eight vessels, supposedly
by submarines, it is presumed that
they all were sent to the bottom be
fore the new submarine orders Went
into effect. Of the vessels sunk one
was Dutch.
On the fighting fronts there has been
little activity aside from the opera
tions of small reconnoitering parties
and artillery duels. Petrograd reports
Russian advance near Kalnzera,
southwest of Riga, and the repulse of
three attacks by the Austro-Germans
against the Russians east of Jacobeni,
near the Northern Roumanian frontier,
Small actions also have occurred in
the Narayuvka River region in Galicia.
In Northwest Persia the Turks are
credited with gains over the Russians
by Berlin. Reconnoitering engagements
continue around Kut-el-Amara and a
heavy bombardment also is in progress
there.
In the Austro-Itallan theater the
Austrians are bombarding with great
intensity the region near Lake Garda
and positions in the Gorlzia zone and
on the Carso plateau.

Change tn Anchorage Not Learned by
Authorities for Two Days Watch
Is Kept on Steamer.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 1. (Special.)
The sudden change of anchorage of
two large German power schooners
which have been lying in Oakland
(jreek since the outbreak of the war
caused unusual activity on the part of
the port officials today when the
change became known. Surveyor of
the Port Wardell, in whose hands Col
lector of the Port Davis placed the
watching of the German ships in the
harbor so that they would not put to
sea without clearing, immediately
started an investigation.
The two schooners are the Atlas and
Neptun. The Neptun arrived in port
from Juluit. In the South Sea Islands
June 5, 1914, and the Atlas the follow
ing November from the same place.
Both vessels have since been lying in
Oakland Creek.
Port officials learned today that the
two schooners went to Sausalito late
Tuesday under their own power and
are now anchored close to the German
bark Ottawa in Richardson Bay.
A customs inspector was assigned to
watch the German steamer Serapis in
Oakland Creek.

Original Note, Prepared Be

UNDERSTANDING IS ASKED
Hope Expressed That Americans
Will Appreciate Necessity of
Adopting Stern Course to
Combat Enemies. .
"WASHINGTON, Feb. 1. A second
memorandum delivered yesterday with
the German note -was made public late
today by the State Department. It dif
fers in ' some respects from the sub
stance of the note itself. The under
standing is that it was prepared at the
German embassy on' Instructions from
Berlin prior to President Wilson's
peace address to the Senate and with
held then on account of the address.
When Count von Bernstorff received
the note and memorandum yesterday
from Berlin he decided to deliver witn
them the original document prepared
by him. The memorandum follows:
After bluntly refusing Germany s
peace offer, the entente powers stated
in their note addressed to the Ameri
can Government that they are deter
mined to continue the war in order to
deprive Germany of German provinces
in the west and east; to destroy aus-tro-Hungary
and to annihilate Turkey.
Allies Charged With Brutality.
"In a waging war with such aims, the
entente allies are violating all rules
of international law, as they prevent
the legitimate trade of neutrals with
the central powers, and of the neutral
nations among themselves. Germany
has so far not made unrestricted use
of the weapon which she possesses in
her submarines. Since the entente
powers, however, have made it impos
sible to come to an understanding
based upon equality of rights of all
nations, as proposed by the central
powers, and have instead declared only
such peace to be possible which shall
be dictated by the entente allies and
shall result in the destruction and the
humiliation of the central powers. Ger
many Is unable further to forego the
full use of her submarines.
"The Imperial government therefore
does not doubt that the Government
of the United States will understand
the situation thus forced upon Ger
many by the entente allies brutal
methods of war and by their determi
nation to destroy the central powers.
and that the Government of the United
States will further realize that the new
openly disclosed Intention of the en
tente allies gives back to Germany the
freedom of action which she reserved
In her note addressed to the Govern
ment of the United States on May 4,
1916.
AH Ship. Will Be Sank.
"Under these circumstances Germany
will meet the Illegal measures of her
enemies by forcibly preventing after
February 1, 1917. In a sone around
Great Britain. France, Italy and in the
Eastern Mediterranean, all navigation,
that of neutrals included, from and to
England and from and to France, etc.
All ships met within that zone will
be sunk.
"The Imperial government is confi
dent that this measure will result In
a speedy termination of the war and
in the restoration of peace which the
Government of the United States, Ger
many and her allies had hoped to reach
by negotiations. Now that the war.
through the fault of Germany's ene
mies, has to be continued, the Imperial
government feels sure that the Gov
ernment of the United States will un
derstand the .necessity ot adopting
such measures as are destined to bring
about a speedy end of the horrible and
useless bloodshed. The Imperial gov
ernment hopes all the more for such
an understanding of her position, as
the neutrals have, under the pressure
of the entente powers, suffered great
losses, being forced by them either to
give up their entire trade or to limit
it according to conditions arbitrarily
determined by Germany's ene ies in
violation of international law."
TAFT WOULD HASTEN ARMS
German Policy Declared "Unwarrant
ed Extension of Blockade.
CONCORD. N. H., Feb. 1. A grossly
unwarranted extension of the right of
blockade was the characterization of
the new German policy of unrestricted
submarine warfare made by William
Howard Taft, who addressed the State
Legislature today. He said in part:
"A dangerous crisis in our relations
with Germany is forced by her de
clared intention to sink neutral vessels
engaged in trade with France and
England In a grossly unwarranted ex
tension of the right of blockade. It
greatly emphasizes the necessity for
hastening adequate military and naval
preparedness against unjust aggression."
