birthplace of death!
Founded in 1741 by a group or
evangelists seeking to spread the
teachings of Christ in the New World
it has-in 1915 = become a town
doomed by death, for here the great
Bethlehem steel mills, owned by
Chas. M Schwab, are busy, day and

Its founders, as they approached
the south bank of the Lehigh river,

decided to found a settlement there.
Today, if one takes the same path
way down into the valley, one comes
upon Bethlehem through the Catholic
cemetery, and then, looking down
through a vista of white limestone
crosses, one can see part of the
town and the great SchWab works,
its tall smokestacks beIching forth

1t is really South Bethlehem that
has had success thrust upon it by
shrapnel, for the Lehigh divides the
town which, for town of its size,
is the most cosmopolitan in the

ira Session Of Congress.
By ASsOcIATED pRtss


Washington, Feb. 1.-THE amended
government ship purchase bill, passed
by the House early today. failed to
make any progress when it reached
the senate. Administration leaders
tonight were uncertain as to its fate.
The measure failed to satisfy either
the recaIcitrant democrats or pro-
gressive republicans. The insurgent
democrats held the measure to be Of
a permanent character. while republic
cans. who favored the senate bill, be-
lieved 1t too temporary.
Democratic leaders realized the bill
could not be passed unless it could be
changed in conference, but efforts to
send It to conference failed Another
attempt will be made tomorrow
Despite the uncertainty OF the situ-
alton, senate and house leaders are
confident there will be no extra session
Of congress and that the shipping bill
If not sent to conference will be dis
placed in the senate by appropriation

London Feb. 17.-The time limit set
by Germany for neutral shipping to
take measures of safety expired at
midnight tonight and Germany is now
expected to put into operation her de-
clared intention of employing sub
marines and mines in waters around
the British Isles, which she proclaimed
war zone with the object of cutting
off the food supplies of the British
people.
In the meantime Germany, in de-
veloping her submarine warfare, has
added the small French steamer Vile
De Lille to her list of merchantmen
sunk. The vessel was sunk off Cher
bourg after the crew was given time
to take to small boats, Members of
the submarines crew boarded the
steamer and placed bombs in her in
terror, which later exploded.

An announcement by the German
war office today said that in the re-
cent Of the defeat of Russians in the
Mazurian Lake region in East Prus-
