Bio spectacuIar AerIaI Attack.


London.-Aerial warfare was wag.
ed on the largest scale in its history
and under adverse circumstances from
the standpoint of the weather. Brit
ish airmen, bufeting snow in the air.
swept over cities Of Northern Belgium
held by the Germans, droped bombs
no ostend, Bruges and other places
Thhty-four aeroplanes and sea-
planes-of the British navy took part
in the operations and all returned to
their base, without casualties to their
drivers, although two machines were
damaged. The raid was made to pre-
vent the development of submarine
bases and establishments which might
further endanger British warships and
merchantmen.
Although NO submarines were seen
the British admiralty statement indi'
Gates that the raid had satisfactory re-
suits for considerable damage is said
to have been done to German posi-
tions, railway lines and railway sta
tions.
At various points the airmen were
received by German fire from anH
aerial guns and rifles. None of the
airmen is reported by the admiralty
to have been wounded.

ENGLAND CELEBRATES VICTORY

Great Britain Has Advised Using
American Flag for Emergency.
London.-Berlin is celebrating the
evacuation of East Prussia by the Rus
slams which is hailed in the German
capital as another great victory for
Field Marshal Won Hindenberg; Eng
land is not attempting to hide her Ella
ton at the success Of her airmen's
raid on the German positions in Bel
GUM, and all Europe is eagerly dis
cussing the American notes to Great
Britain and Germany and contemDlat-
ing what the replies will be.
Great Britain has already intimated
that British merchant ships have
been advised to use neutral flags only
in case of emergency, and no general
use of such flags is anticipated. The
German minister of the Hague has is
sued another warning to neutrals to
the effect that in view Of the alleged
declaration of all the British ports
as war ports and the use of neutral
flags by British ships it would be dan
gerous for neutral merchantmen to
visit the prescribed waters after Janu-
ary 18.

GERMANY WANTS
FOOD UNHAhPERED
HlNTEO BY AMBASSADOR THAT
WARFARE ON MERCHANT
SHIPPING BE RELAXED.
BUT ONLY ON CONDITIONS
Conditional contrahand Designed For
Civil Population is Not to Be
MoIested.-War Zone Measures.

Washington. - The importance
which the German Government at
taches to the unrestricted shipment
of foodstuffs for its civilian population
was emphasized at the State Depart
ment by Count Won Bernstorf, the
German Ambassador, who conferred
with both Secretary Bryan and Coun-
sellor Lansing. While no formal
statement regarding the Ambassadors

was SAID assee~aT6 that he had
hinted that warfare on merchant
shipping might be relaxed II Germany
could be assured OF continuous food

tion. ,,.s.ss ,.-rls,szs
ThsspSsltloB 81 the German Govern
iment, Il was explained, Is that the
proclamation of war zone and cam
paign against enemy merchant ships
was simply retaliation against Eng
lands alleged violations Of the Decla-
ration of London in hindering cond1t'

reaching Germany. This, according
to the German Ambassador, is no less
inhumane than the campaign on ner-
chants vessels.
While declining to authorize any
statement, officials admitted that the
American note to Germany was open
to the construction that no vessels,
either belligerent or neutral, should
be sunk unless previously v,,ited and
an opportunity given for tfss taking
off Of passengers. It was reiterated
that while the rules of international
law clearly compelled such steps, the
position taken was based largely on
humanitarian grounds.
An official who helped prepare the
American note to Germany pointed
out that the strong warning tone OF
the communication was not intended
as a threat, but was friendly act
in spirit of precaution lest the sink
ing of an American vessel with Amer
leans aboard inhame public opinion
in the United State to a degree which
could not be estimated in advance.

GERMANY AND GREAT
BRITAIN GET NOTES
DIPLOMATS AND OFFICIALS AT
WASHINGTON ARE DEEPLY
INTERESTED.
WAITING FOR THE REPLIES
Believed That Great Britain wiz
Give Assurances She viii Not
Sanction Use of Neutral Flags.

Misunderstanding of the off,
cial texts of the two notes from the
United States to Germany and Great
Britain developed in intense interest
among officials and diplomats in the
question of what would be the nature
of the replies from the two belliger.
ent Governments.
That Great Britain would give as.
surances Of no intention to sanction
the general use Of neutral flags by
British merchant ships was the be.
lief of many officials. But the widest
sort Of speculation, basedsea variety
OF conceptions bffe Germans plans to
*aging a submarine war on merchant
ships, was heard as TO the .pTobaSle
response of tsheaBerlin Foreign Office.
Count Won Bernstori, the German
Ambassador, declined to discuss the
note to Germany as he had received no
advices from Berlin concerning it.
The British Embassy also was silent.
What excited most attention in Con.
gress and among diplomats, however,
was the serious tone of the notes even
though qualified by tie polite terms
Of diplomatic usage. The determine
ton of the United States Government
to have the American flag used only
by ships entered to yfiy it and the
warning that Germany would be held
10 a strict accountability" if Ameri
can lives or vessels were lost in the
attae1ss on merchant vessels in the
ns%sSpited sea zones Of war
practically were the, sole topics Of dis
cussion in executive and copgressional
quarters as well as among the Aurbas.

and neutral nations

SHIPS SEEK "SAFETY FIRST"

Another British Ship Flies Stars and
Stripes to Protect Passengers.
New York.-Passengers on the Gu
nard Liner, British Steamer Orduna,
which arrived here from England, said
the Orduna flew the American flag
for nearly "a hours on January 81
while passing through the Irish sea.
The Stars and Stripes they said,
were hoisted Sunday, an hour after
the Orduna left Liverpool and were
not hauled down until early Monday.
The Orduna was to have sailed
from Liverpool Saturday, January 80,
but did not depart until 10:30 the
next morning. Passengers heard the
delay was caused by presence of a
German submarine in the vicinity.
The American flag was raised, they
said, shortly after Orduna cleared the
Mersey.

FORM TO BE PUT THROUGH
HOUSE.
And Will Press it to Last, Even to Ex-
tent Of Calling Extra Session.
The Compromise Plan.

Washington.-A compromise propos-
al designed to extricate the Admins
tration ship-purchase bill from the
deadlock that has blocked its passage
in the Senate and to avert an extra
session was put forward by House
Democrats through Representative
Kitchin of North Carolina, chosen ma
jority leader of the next House.
The new plan, which proposes the
passage of the shipping bill as tenn
porary emergency measure was deVel-
oped at conferences on the House side
Of the Capitol while the Senate mark
ed time with both opponents and sup
porters of the measure sparring for
advantages. An adjournment of the
Senate advanced the plans of the
Democratic leaders to force cloture
rule that would end the determined
filibuster.
AS announced by Representative
Kitchin the compromise contemplates
passage through the House next week
of the bill suggested by Senator Gore
with an amendment that would ter
inmate the Governments activities in
the shipping business two years after
the close of the European war, De-
spite President Wilson's announced
determination to stand by the Senate
bill in It's present form, Representa-
tive Kitchin said House leaders, anx.
ious to avoid an extra session, pro-
posed to put this measure before the
Senate and give the President an op'
portunity to accept it in the event OF
the failure Of the pending bill.
The desire of both Republicans and
Democrats to avoid an extra session,
Representative Kitchin thought, prob
ably would give the proposed plan
sufficient support to- get it through
before March 4.
