The Vossiche zeitung assured its read

American Congress, which was opposed TO
any action that might lead 10 war.

"GERMANY MUST BEND
OR BREAK" TEMPS BELIEVES

PARIS, April 21.--The Temps believes
that the repulse at Verdun, and the fall
of Trebizond may cause German statesmen
TO hesitate before accepting the United
States as another enemy.
THE time has come" says the Temps,
when Germany must bend or break"
La Liberte calls the note an ultimatum,
and adds. Germany Is pilloried hencefor-
ward and outlawed of nations. The
civilized world will receive with relief
President Wilson's stinging denunciation.
America did everything TO prevent rup-
ture. Germany must choose between
humiliation and new enemy"

WASHINGTON, April 2l.-"It looks as

partment authority said today after read
ing the interview with Admiral Won Holtz-
endorff this afternoon.

As for the Admirars suggestion that
Germany will continue war upon freight

he said, II friendly relations are TO con-

U. S. SEEKS GERMAN PLOT
in INCITING VILLA ATTACK

WASHINGTON, April 21.-An investi-
the Villa raid at Columbus is awaiting the
return of the American expedition from
Mexico, 1t was learned on high authority
today.
The fact that the investigation awaits
the return Of the punitive expedition Is
understood to be caused by expectation
that bandits captured will give valuable
information.
The Won der Goltz statement published
today has been investigated thoroughly by
the Department of Justice. Its contents
are well known to the state Department,
and are reported to have played a large
part in the suddenly abrupt attitude of
this Government toward German Consul
lar and other officials.

CARRANZISTAS ORDER U. s.
MARCH TO STOP AT PARRAL

CHIHUAHUA, Mexico, April 21.-
American troops have been ordered not to
proceed south of Parral in continuing
their hunt for Pancho villa. These ad-
missions were made today by General
Luis Gutierrez, Carranzista military COM
mander of chihuahua.
He declared Major Jose de Ia Luz Her
rera, of Parral, who figured in the am
bush of American troops there, had been
instructed definitely to inform the Amer
ican commanders not to advance beyond
Parral.

CHIHUAHUA CITY. Mex, April 21-
The body reported by Mexicans to be that

Yes" was the frank response.
do you know how they were lost?"
Admiral Won Holtzendorff was asked
mo, we don't always hear when one Of
our submarines is lost. We don't always
know whether they had fair chance or
not when they attempted to sink ships,
surrounded as they are with such strict
orders"
What has been the success of the
new submarine warfare so far?'' he was
asked.
"In March more than 100000 enemy
tons were destroyed by submarines and
mines on enemy coasts" was the response.
Admiral Won Holtzendorfr is filled with
energy and spirit. When he talks he Is
the most serious official in Germany, His
whole body vibrates with energy. Every
word carries conviction, because he speaks
so frankly, so unhesitatingly, that one
feels he is speaking straight out instead
of jotting down his thoughts beforehand
to make an impression. During the en-
tire interview ne sat erect in his leather
chair, his eyes directly on the interviewer,

PARRAL INCIDENT
PRODUCES CRISIS
IN VILLA PURSUIT
Advance of Carranzistas
Will Call for a
Showdown
WITHDRAWAL is DEMAND

CHIHUAHUA CITY, April 2i.-The
entire outcome Of the American expedition
to get Pancho Villa may be decided on
the Parral incident. Each hour the situa-
tion at Parral becomes more tense. The
American advance is at Santa Cruz La
Viga, short distance from Parral Cen
eral Luis Gutierrez, commandant at Chi
huahua, has announced that he has or
dered the American troops to advance no
farther
General Luis Herrera, the "gringo-
hater," is In command at Parral His
father is Mayor. His brother-in-law was
wounded in the Parral fight.
Carranza troops are being rushed to his
command. Today a fresh band of them
arrived from the north. They are prepar-
ing for the crisis.
READY TO SHOOT
The American advance also is getting
ready for any turn of fortune 1t was
reported here today that $500 troops were
being sent to the front At present both
sides are marking time watching and
waiting and ready to shoot
American commanders have been re-
fused the use of telegraph lines since
April 10, and American aeroplanes have
been forbidden to land in Mexican towns.
This order followed the demonstration
when the first American plane landed,
with Captain Foulois at the wheel. He
was mobbed. Later General Gutierrez's
chief of stan apologized handsomely and
entertained the fler.
Chihuahua is under strict military con-
troll. No one is permitted on the streets
after midnight. Mounted guards patrol
every street and byway, and there is not
much time wasted between their chal-
longing "quien vive" and the report OF
their Mausers. One meeting with the
mounted guard. such as was experienced
by the correspondent on his arrival, Is
enough to last the ordinary man life
time The discovery of Villista plot in
which 200 followers OF the bandit chief
tain were involved and 15 executed, drew
the lines still tighter.
There is plenty of intrigue in Chihua-
hua. Beside the large organizations of
anti l-Carranzistas, II is known in the
American colony that certain men sup
posed to be agents and intelligence repre-
sentatives of the American army COM
manders are actually employees of the Car
rama Government. 1t was in Chihuahua
that vehement anti-American posters were
posted on adobe walls, to be torn down
after several hours by the Federal au-
thorities.

GERMANY CAN'T YIELD,
NAVAL HEAD DECLARES

Continued from Page Ono
We could have destroyed hundreds of
thousands of tons of enemy ships since
the beginning of the submarine war. ex-
cept for the promise we gave the United
States but we cannot go further.
''Five months more will see what we
can do to British shipping. The ring
around the British Isles will grow tighter
and tighter. Then we shall see whether
England will still maintain that she can
not make peace until Germany Is de-
stroyed. The Allies could have had peace
long ago, but they still cling to the idea
of starving Germany into submission. The
longer they cling to the Idea of starving
Germany into submission the longer they
prolong the war and the greater will be
their bill.

the enemy is spreading. We are not out
to torpedo without warning neutral ships
bound for England. our submarines have
respected every one of them so far, and
they have met scores in the North Sea,
the Channel and the Atlantic.
DON'T WANT BREAK.
"If diplomatic relations with America
are broken, our submarines can attack
any enemy ship without warning. But
remember we have no desire for breaA
with the United States. That would be
insanity. We shall not bring it about,
despite our desire to push vigorously our

war now. / don't think America wants
American people want to do anything
they can to help England win, even by
protecting English freight ships with
American lives.
People must remember that ii is risky
to travel on the seas to and from Eng
land today. They must watch the ships
character. If England boasts her master
ship of the seas and her rule of the waves
she must accept the responsibility and the
liability-not Germany.
Germany is at war with England.
Germany must attack England's life
nerve, which is her shipping. We have
means through our submarines to do this
and we must go ahead. England Is the
one responsible for American lives on her
freight ships. We cannot warn Americans
on board any more than we can send
word to neutrals who may be in enemy
trenches before we attack.
ut is the same situation on the seas ex-
actly, and still we know that all passenger
ships now going to England carry war
munitions. not necessarily ammunition or
Shells but articles which are much more
necessary to help England continue the
war"

Important Questions Brought Up
by Executive Committee in

NEW YORK Dec. s-rhe United States
National Lawn Tennis Association opened
one OF the most important sessions OF its
existence here today. The question OF fran
Ing an amateur rule which would be ac-
eeptnble to the majority OF players was
the main topic OF conversation before the
members went into executive session.
There has been a LOT OF talk during the
last year on the subject Of amntoursm In
tennis, IL was declared that the fact that
Maurice u, Mclaughlin and Thomas Il.
Bundy had opened sporting gooC' store
In san Francisco would cause them 10
automatically become professionals The
reason for this was that those who made
these statements said that the men were
capitRlizing their lawn tennis playing abi-
ity, Whether this was true or not was
one OF the matters 20 be decided by the
executive committee.
There was also some discussion prior to
the meeting on the subject OF Wallace
JohnsOn's status, The famour chop-stroke
player has been connected with the firm
Of John WanamRker In Philadelphia for
some time, and Il was question whether
his status was the same as that OF Nc
Loughlln and Bundy
