Hy Wilbur S. l-'orrost, (United Pros Suit Correspondent.) PARIS, March 20. "A vast army of Gorman agents engaged in sur veillance of Spanish ports anil ship ping" is condemned by the Spanish press, and demands made on the gov ernment to take steps to get the spies out of the country, in papers urrlvlng here today. ' Gorman bomb plots and intrigue- in America are pointed to as examples of what the Spanish government is confronted with. Since Spain's refusal to openly break with Germany as a protest against the submarine blockade, the SpaniBh press, except the Ge'rmano- phile organs, is open in its criticism The objecting papers carry lengthy and detailed revelations of the meth ods of German agents working in conjunction with the submarines. El Liberal, the great' newspaper of Mad rid, leads in openly declaring that no ship now leaves a Spanish port before its description, cargo, sea route, speed, armament against sub marines, makeup of its crew and its destination is known to the subma rines lying in wait off the Spanish coast. This information is transmitted to the submarines by signals or by wireless and -it is so accurate that a German agent can say to a ship cap tain, "Tour-vessel will be sunk at Buch and such a time." And these predictions -are nearly always con firmed by facts. Other vessels, which pass the tests of 1 the agents, are spared, the paper says; and contin ues: "The German organization is very vast and admirably disposed to take advantage of all the elements at its disposition. .: Of the 60,000 to 80, 000 Germans now in Spain, the most are officers . of the German army, marines, inventors, industial work ers, commercial agents and technic ians ' of. all sorts who have sought employment on all parts of the Span ish coast. . In some instance they Work for the. lowest wages. "This German army is directed by the consuls and heads of big German enterprises, commercial and indust rial, organized before the war. "They have created friendships ev erywhere, especially among the pro vincial authorities, the military chiefs, the commandants of marines, the officers of the civil guard, the caribineers, the chiefs of public ser vice, among which are the posts and telegraph, and the civil police. "This has given birth to a system of espionage, sagely and methodic ally organized, which acquaints the Germans with rtost mathematical and precise information for their subma rine campaign." GERMANS ARE SLOWER Delay In Retreat May Be in Prepara tion for a Last Stand. (By United Press to the Bend Bulletin) LONDON, March 20. The Ger man retreat along the western front slowel down perceptibly today. Press headquarters; at the front attributed this to stormy weather', although it is thought that the Germans may pos sibly be preparing to make a stand.

Fronch wits ontlniBlitHtlc. "I'm mightily In favor of It. Lot's got nil the Improvements wo inn," was his statement. S. L. WIkkIus, local agent for the O.-W, R. & N., favored tlio construc tion of the Striihorn lines. "It ns stiranco ran bo given that construc tion will be carried through, I'm for the bond Issue." he suid. F. T. Porkor, of The Bend Water, Light & Power Co., could see no room for argument. He favored tlio bond Issue as a direct moans for good in tlio community. Klnmutli Made Example. "If Klamath Falls can raise $300, 000, Bend can raise $100,000 with out a qulbblo," was the declaration of E. M. Thompson, of tlio Thompson Furnlturo Co. "Every Individual In Bend should back Mr. Strahorn." City Attorney C. S- BoiiBon assert ed that while the Issuo is apparently a gooif. proposition from the city's standpoint, contingencies might arise which would alter tho situation. Faith In the future of Bond, he de clared to be tho keynoto of tho whole situation. Oscar Carlson, of Carlson A Lyons, doclared that he would not consider tho Issuo at all unless .Portland's as BiBtance could be assurod, and tho samo view was taken by Goorgo Car roll. Chief of Police L. A. W. Nixon said that the Issuing of $100,000 bonds was all right, but that more definite assurances on the part of Mr. Stra horn were needed, . . - If the present high prices are to keep up, I'm favorable," was Paul C. Garrison's assertion. "A rail road connection of tho kind should be worth $100,000 to us." "It's got to come, if Bond Is to receive proper outslilo recognition. Now Is the time to do It," declared Elmer Ward. Wllllnm Downing favored the bond issue as necessary to secure through transportation for Bend, and V. V. Harpham pointed to Klamath Falls as showing the comparatively small sum being asked of Bend. R. M. Smith was unwilling to ho quoted until ho could go into the matter at length. Councilman John Steldl favored the bond Issue, declaring that the benefit would more than offset the increase in taxes. "There really would be no increase at all, because of the city's growth," he said. "I consider it a good Investment." "Bend will derive tho greatest ben efit; why shouldn't Bond pay?" was the way J. A. Eastes epitomized the situation. J. D. Davidson viewed tho matter as a race between Bend and Klamath Falls. "We can't afford to let them get the jump on us," he said.
