GERMANS SHOW FLAGS
 ONLY WHEN SUCCESSFUL.
Also Patriotic Airs are Cut Out to
 Keep Them From Being Cheap.

BERLIN, Jan. 21.-An American, who rode three hundred miles across northern Germany and spent twenty four hours in Berlin before he saw a single German flag, could not fail to contrast this difference with the very general display of the Union Jack in England and the tri-color in France. They order the display of the nation al emblem differently in Germany. When war first broke out the flags were just as generally displayed as in the other countries, but the change was ordered, and now the flags are unfurled only when there is good news to celebrate. On the day when not a flag was to be seen in crossing from Holland to Berlin, the news of the loss of the German ships off the South American coast had arrived and the flags, which had last been dis played on the day of the successes at Lodz were taken from their staffs. Similarly it is noticeable how less generally patriotic airs are played in the theaters in Berlin. Many Ger mans claim that it cheapens the airs to have them played nightly in this fashion, and their point of view seems to be generally accepted.

IMMIGRATION
 HAS HEARING
OFFICIAL OF ORGANIZATION SAYS PRESIDENT WANTS TO
 RUSSIANIZE II. .,

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-Presi- dent Wilson yesterday gave the pro- missed three hours to a hearing of the opinions of citizens on the question of the literacy test in the immigration bill recently passed by congress. Men who are for and aga'uss the literacy test expressed their views. J. H. Pat ten of the Farmers National Citizens Association used some warm language in protesting againSv the administra- tion's objection to a literacy test and he declared that those who did not be- lieve literacy requisite in immigrants are trying to Russianize the United States" by letting ignorant people flood the country. The President pull ed Patten up short declaring that the question of motive must not be argu- ed. The humor of the Presidents Ob- jectiOn rather tickled his hearers. In a day or two the decision of Mir. Will son as to whether he will veto the bill or not may be expected.

BRITAIN SEES DANGER IN U. s.
SUBMARINES SINK BRITISH MERCHANT SHIPS
GEORGE HAZARD WILL
 BE BROUGHT TO SEWARD.
Warrant Issued for the Arrest of Man Who was Acquitted Yester-
 day at COrdova.

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of George Hazard and he will be brought to Seward to stand trial on a charge similar to that preferred against him at Cordova. It is charged that while he was here a few months ago Hazard got sums of money and goods for which he did not pay. In one case he secured $15O cash from one man, it is stated. The comlainants here are naturally irritated by the fact that they tried to get Hazard brought back on a warrant before he was taken to Cordova but the dis trict attorneys office refused to act because, it said, there was not sufTi- cient evidence. The result was that Hazard was taken to Cordova where he had secured money by the same means, and this money has now been restored to its rightful owners while the people in Seward who declare that Hazard has their money are compelled to suffer In spite of the fact that the district attorneys office knew that Hazard was also wanted in Seward its representative moved the dismissal of the charges against Hazard at Cordova. Mir Hazard will now have a hearing before the commissioner here, no doubt.
