: AT WAR WITH --ilMANY
Bonds Must Be Sold at Par
$3,000,000,000 Will
Be Loaned
Washington, April 14- The house
passed the administration $7,000,000,000
bund issue this afternoon practically as
suggested by Secretary McAdoo pro
viding for the immediate loan of $3,000,
000,000 to countries now lit war with
enemies of the United States.
Throughout the two days debate ou
the measure there was little opposition
to the terms of the bill which places
in the hands of President Wilson and
Secretary McAdoo unlimited nuthority
in making the greatest individual loan
in the history of the world.
There were no dissenting votes on
the roll call. It took less than 15
minutes to complete.
The bill will now go to the senate.
As passed, the bill provides that none
of the bonds shall sell at less than par.
The loan to the allies must be made
dining and not after the war and no
part of it can go to a nation not at
war with Germany.
There was scarcely n tremor of excite
ment during the debaio over the historic
measure. When it passed there was no
more stir than if it were some routine
matter thus raising $7,000,000,000 by
a .single stroke. '
No Serious Objections.
No serious opposition to the measure
developed today and republicans who
endeavored to amend the bill did not
carry their opposition to a vote against
it.
Two republican amendments sponsor
ed by representative Lcnroot, of Wis
consin, were written into the bill this
afternoon. On provides that the loan
to the allies must be made during and
not after the war and to the othter that
the foreign loan of $3,000,000,000 can
be made only to a nation at war with
(erma uy.
The house rejected amendments re
lating to the domination and maturity
of the bonds and refused to curb the
power of Secretary McAdoo and Presi
dent Wilson to handle these matters- It
also rejected amendments by Represen
tatives Sloan and Green to name a com
mittee of the house ami senate to co
operate and advise the president in
making the loan to the allies.
A suggestion that Mexico might de
mand a loan of the United States if the
bill did not specify nations to which
funds might be loaned was made by
Representative Gillett.
"I would hate to see the administra
tion exposed to a .request Tor a subsidy
from Mexico," said Gillett.
Amendments Defeated.
As the house got down to the finnl
sta.we of the measure amendments of all
sorts were offered. Representative
Towner of Iowa, republican, offered an
amendment to strike $3,000,000,000
the allies' sharefrom the loan. He
said he wanted congress to control the
Infiii. The amendment was defeated by
L'17 -to 3. Towner himself did not vote
for it."
Another amendment offered by Rep
. reseatative Moore of Philadelphia, pro
posed that the allied loan should l.e re
paid within 30 years.
Moore's amendment was defeated
without a division vote.

THREE CORNERED RACE
Beat .Stanford by Four
Lengths California Was
a Bad Third
Oakland Estuary, Cal., April 14.
Washington Won the annual three mile
triangular intercollegiate crew race by
four lengths over the Stanford crew
on the Oakland estuary this morning
California was a bad third, finishing
two and a half lengths behind the
S.anford shell.
Washington's unofficial time was 17
minutes 29 2-5 seconds. This is slower
ithan the time made by the Stanford
J crew in last year's victory over Cali
fornia, Stanford winning 16:3i by
eight lengths. Today's race was under
unfavorable . weather conditions, a
steady rain falling during the race and
the wind beating diagonally across the
course.
The start was considerably delayed
by the wind, the California crew in
particplar having trouble in lining up
for the start. Stanford rowed a fast
stroke at the start and California led
for the first half mile, but could not
hold out. Washington, with a slow,
steady stroke from the start, pulled
up from behind and passed Stanford
and California just as Stanford was
crowding California out of the lead.
Tho tide had, just started out of the
estuary and was with the crews down
the three mile course.'
The Washington crew won the fresh
man race, finishing two lengths- ahead
of the California crew. Stanford was
a bad third, being fully eight lengths
behind California. Tho time is not yet
available.
Tho times were:
Washington, 10:24: California, 10:33;
Stanford, 10:53.

Lens Most important of
Frances Coal Centers,
About To Fall
GERMAN RESISTANCE
GETS MORE DESPERATE
City of Lens Ablaze Indicating
Germans Are Ready To
Abandon It
By William Philip Simms.
(United Press staff correspondent.)
With the British Armies Afield, April
14. Another mile of the Hindenburg
line was taken by the British onslaught
today.
Pit No. G to the north of Oivenchy
and pit No. 11, east of Double Crassier
were both captured. This extends by
three miles to the north, the front along
which the Teutons line is now brok
en. The Arras position, on which the Ger
mans swung pivot-like in the retreat to
the Hindenburg line, is now turned to
a distance of nearly eight miles south
east of Arras.
Lens, most important of France's
coal cities, is likely to fall at any mo
ment. British troops are encircling it
on two sides.
Advance posts of the British forces
were today pushed a considerable dis
tance toward Queant nud Pronville.
The British forces were .slowly but
steadily closing in around France's
great mining capital today. The Can
adians were hurling themselves from
the Vimy heights on German . troops
staggering back across the plain. Tho
Canadians will probably have the honor
of first entering Lens a city which
tue iicrmana liaa hoped to hold at all
costs.
When I left the Canadian sector, I
saw from the Vimy ridge the city of
J-ens ablaze, it was tutim the Germans
intend to sack and destroy the town as
uiey sacked ana destroyed Bapaume
and Perouua.
German resistance was growing more
and more desperate with each hour that
Field Marsha! Haig shoved his men for
ward. But the resistance was ineffective
against the powerful British blows.
Today Vimy ridge was still shelled
from afar off by German guns, as well
as other positions held by tho British.
But everywhere tho Teutonic army was
.shooting excitedly rather than method
ically. It was errac.tic. not accurate.
British forces were steadily gaining
cuimiiHuu ot an nign ground villages and
other vantage points a3 thev progressed
astride the Hindenburg line. Today
even the spreading plain below Vimy
ridge, from which Lens was directly
menaced, was being asorbed.
The Canadians continued irresistibly
pressing on down the Vimy slopes, oc
cupying Petit Vimy, Givenchy and the
Bailleul railway station.
"We've got Fritz where we want
mm now," observed one Canadian of
'ficer grimly today.
Surrounding St. Qtientin.
London, April 14. Suddenly switch
ing the point of his drive from around
Arras, Field Marshal. Hnisr last night
smashed lis men forward far to the
south around St. Quentin and advanced
at Fayet within two miles of the
citv.
"Fayet, northwest of St. Quentin,
was carried during the night; also the
important positions of Ascension Farm
and Grand Priel farm," the British
commander-in-chief reported today.
But if Haig struck fiercely around
St. Quentin, there was no diniunitiou
during the night in the power o'f the
British assault around Arras "astride
the Hindenburg line," as Haig reported
: it i.asi nigiir.
I "We made progresg north of the
jBapaume-Cambrai road toward
jQuoant,' the British commauder-in-chief
'reported today.
j To the north of the Ssarpc, the enemy
t was compelled to yield further.
" We seized Vimy station, La Shau
idiere and positions at Fosse Dix and
Buquet mill, between Vivenchy -En-JGoshcile
and Angres.
j "Enemy guns taken include four
eight-inch howitzers."
Must Retreat Again,
j The boasted Hindenburg line was
crumbling today in the pulverizing as
saults of Field Marshal Jiaig's victor
ious British army around Arras. Lens,
northern pivot point of the "atrategic
retreat" started a month ago by the
Germans to the Hindenburg line, seem
ed likely to fall very shortly.
British forces have driven a wedge
above it to the north around Loos
while today's battle front dispatches in
dicated no let-up in the sweep forward
from the Vimy ridge, which means an
other encircling arm shoved forward to
(the south of the city. It was on this
(southern drive that the British made
i probably their greatest advance in the
I present big pusff, according to full de
i tails received today. The ground

Argentine Swept by Anti

Delegation Calls On Amer

Their Friendship
By Charles P. Stewart
(United Press staff correspondent)
Buenos Aires. April 14.With Bra
zil on the verge of war with Germany
after diplomatic rupture', Bolivia dip
lomatically severed from Berlin, Ar
gentine was swept by an anti-German
sentiment today that seemed likely to
result in a diplomatic break between
Hnenos Aires and Berlin.
The wildest excitement followed re
ceipt of news last night of the sinking
ny a Merman sunmarine of the Argen
tine sailing vessel Monte Protegida.
The firsi prediction of responsible of
ficials was that Argentine .would im
mediately follow Brazil's example in
handing the German minister his pass
ports, but the cabinet deferred action
until late today.
in the meantime it waB held that Ar
gentine would probably decide not to
go farther at this time than to regis
ter a sharp protest to Berlin.
The point was raised that the Monte
Protegida was technically registered
as an Argentine vessel, she was really
Brazilian and Italian. Her crew was
entirely composed of Norwegians.
The Germarr minister held- a brief
conference with President Irigoyen to
day and emerged with tho declaration:
"Germany and Argentine are at per
fect peace. " '
Many elements among tho populace
however, were strenuously advocating
drastic action. Pro-ally supporters an
nounced a formal anti-German demon

A delegation of prominent Argentines
