WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. .
That lb crista between the United
Bute and Germany l drawing near
It fait hem today.
Two factors that contribute to th
testing tbat relation may develop
Into mora serious phases. First, tba
torpedoing of tba liner California
with women and children aboard, and
trrund, United Prcs Correspondent
Atkrman"s cablegram tbat Ucrmsiiy
U withholding the Issuance of Amer
Iran passport.
The fact that a lour American
aboard the California waa saved roar
prove a (lender thread of peace. Tho
Inking of tho ship, however, may
convince the prealdent that Germany
means to carry out their submarine
warfare policy.
TUii United Htatea stands alono
among the neutrala of tho world In
the break with Germany. Other na
tion, however, are protesting and
leading their moral auppart. The all-
Catholics Will
Support Wilson
Says W.A.Barrett,
of Columbus, in Address Here
Last Night
"Should tho necessity arise, every
Catholic, In America will bo found u
"nit In support of tho flag, and In

COllimbua. Tho Uoaltlon that. Ihn
President takca will bu our position,

"lurch from tbo beginning. TUo ac
tion taken by President Wilson Is In
defense of International law. Inter
national law la the outgrowth of tho
law of chivalry: tho law of chivalry
was founded by the Catholic church,
with tbe pope at the head of It."
Thua succinctly did W. A. Barrett,
Mate deputy of the Knlgbta of Colum
bus, exprosa the minds of tho local
ttd state Cathollca at tbe reception
iven last evening In tho assombly
room of the Sacred Heart church to
