WASHINGTON. Jan. 20 Danger of
serious complication with Germany
over the marine problems seemed near
er today than for many month.
The capturing of neutrals and Im
prisoning tbetn aboard the Tarrowdale,
one of the steamer taken by the Ger
man sea raider, and the strong trend
of German sentiment toward a wider
submarine campaign have made possi
bilities ominous, to say the least
The official German statement re
counting the arrival in Germany of the
Yanowdale with neutrals among the
prisoners haa caused grave concern In
Washington.
President's Action Attacked
WASHINGTON. D. C, Jan. 20. To
day's Issue of the Army and Navy
Journal bitterly attacked the promo
tion of Dr. Carey Grayson, President
Wilson's private physician, to the posi
tion of medical director of the navy.
The Journal says this is the direct re
sult of the substitution of the merit
system for the seniority system.
Car Shortage la Serious ,
WASHINGTON. D. C, Jan. 20. De
claring that the car shortage is very
serious and that it requires immediate
relief, the Interstate Commerce Com
mission directed the immediate return
of all coal and refrigerator cars to their
own lines when they have been re-
celved empty. '
