BERLIN UPHOLDS
new lJ-BOAT WAR
Determined to Wage a Contest
Against Britain 10 Decision
HOPEFUL OF SETTLEMENT
Berlin Government Willing, However,
to Meet United States in Every
Way Practical to Assure Pro-
lection of Citizens.

Berlin.-"Germany will stand by her
guns in the announced submarine war
against England. Let that be clearly
understood Germany will conduct a
legal war with a legal naval arm of
warfare, recognized as being a legal
naval arm even by your Mr.. Lansing.
Let that also be clearly understood"
said a German official to a CORE
spondent of an American newspaper.
'The impression you say obtains in
America that Germany is seeking to
force the United States into a war is
too ridiculous to call for an answer.
We haven't reached that pinnacle of
madness.
Germany wants to and is going to
prosecute a war against England to
a decision in which our U-boats, a
recognized legal arm, will be one of
our means to that end.
We ask nothing from the United
States. We merely desire and hope
that Americans viii exercise that care
OF their own safety that they do in
ordinary, normal. peaceful times-that
is, that they travel by safer instead
of more dangerous means, by neutral
or American boats. In other words,
to apply YOUR own great maxim,
safety first"

Paris.-For the time being at least
the great German offensive aimed at
Verdun seems to be at a standstill.
Designating unfavorable weather
conditions amid a heavy snowstorm,
the Germans centered their offensive
on the ridge of hills to the east of
Champ Melville, but although large
numbers of electives were used and
the assault was unprC cedenteG in VOL
ence no further gain was made.
General Joffre, commander of the
French, arrived at Verdun to person.
ally direct the defense of the fortress.
Across the battle front the Kaiser,
surrounded by his staff officers, and
the Crown Prince are planning the
blows being struck in the greatest
German offensive since the defeat at
the Marine.
Paris admits that the French lines
were bent back several miles, and con-
cedes the evacuation of three villages.
but asserts the retirement was made
with all lines unbroken, in good or
der, to avoid useless waste of human
life. The Germans, attacking in mass.
ed formation, lost whole regiments,
it was stated.
Six villages and 10000 French
prisoners have been captured in the
German smash st Verdun. the Ber-
lin War Office declared officially.
Men returning from the front give
descriptions OF terrible slaughter.
One surgeon bringing back a train
load OF wounded, said that he watch
ed one German brigade advance
against the French lines in close for
nation. When it came within range
Of the French batteries the entire
brigade was moved down.
The German losses during the first
five days Of the battle around Yer,
dun are authoritatiyely estimated at
10000.
The German offensive is recognized
now as probably only the beginning
of a determined effort to take the
fortress, formerly the key to the
French front, and compares in VOL
ence and losses TO the battle Of the
User.
A report has been received here
that the Turks have been heavily

CROWN PRINCE LEADS ATTACH

London.-The German army under
Crown Prince Frederick William, hav-
ing fought its way to within eight
miles of the fortress of Verdun, was
reported to be attempting to smash
the French lines on a front of twenty
five miles, with the capture of the
citadel in view.
BY a series of heavy attacks the
Germans penetrated the French posi-.
lions north of Verdun two miles, on
front of ten miles.
Then the battle line was extended
and the fighting increased rapidly in
intensity until the conflict became the
tercest since the British lines were
broken at Ypres last May.
The battle area reached from Nal.
ancourt on the west to Etain on the
east, with Verdun in the centre only
a few miles southwark.
The French War ONCE admits an
advance by the Germans, but says the
gains were made at a great cost in
killed and wounded.
The German preparations for the
great offensive covered a period of
three weeks, and the bombardment of
the French positions with thousands
OF shells had been continuous. The
French were not taken unawares. and
had massed all their available guns
to NEE; the onslaught.
