Washington, Feb. 21.-Thc general
ly accepted idea that President Wilson
will address congress again on the
German crisis before the end of next
week virtually was confirmed today in
official quarters, There was an an
nouncement and it was said that the
president still was considering his next
step. but officials pointed out the ne
cessity of congress making provision
for any emergency which might arise
after adjournment and explained that
the president would not go to the cap
itol to ask for declaration of war
but merely for authority to protect
American rights. The president, it
was reiterated, is just as anxious as
any member of the senate or house to
avoid war, although determined that
the rights of the United States be re-
spected. One of his reasons for desir-
ing action by congress now instead of
risking the necessity for a special ses-
sion, was said to be a belief that a
call for an extra session in an emerg-
ency might result in dangerous excite
ment.
One Big Issue Remains.
Various problems resulting from the
break in diplomatic relations with
Germany are being cleared up but 1t
was emphasized at the state depart
ment today that the one big issue fac
ing the American government is the
continuance of Germany's submarine
campaign
1t was revealed that on Monday a
vigorous demand for the release of the
American prisoners on the prize ship
farrowdale was forwarded to Berlin,
and it is fully expected that the de-
mand will be complied with.
On the submarine issue it was stated
officially the only step on the part of
Germany which will satisfy the Amer
lean government will be renewal of
the pledges given after the Sussex was
attacked.
Drastic Action Soon.
On the face of reports on the atti-
tude of Germany and Austria Hun
gary most officials think the time
rapidly is approaching when diplo-
matte relations with the latter country
will be broken, and steps taken to pro-
tect American merchantmen desiring
to pass through the dangerous area.
There still is a disposition on the
part of the state department officials
not to discuss the Austrian situation.
No ground for any hope that the VII
emma government will repudiate Ger
position is to be found, how
ever So far as can be learned, no
reply to the note from the United
States inquiring for clear statement
of Austria's attitude has been re-
ceived.
Inquiry From Germany.
A delayed communication from the
German foreign office was delivered
to the department today by Dr. Paul
Ritter, the Swiss minister, represent
ing German interests in the United
States. 1t was a dispatch from Berlin
some time previous to the departure
of Ambassador Gerard and other
American diplomatic and consular Of
fcers from Germany, and contained
a request for information concerning
the welfare and treatment of German
and nationals in the United
States.

faction Over Progress Made
in Submarine War,

Again the British forces fighting in
France have attacked German posi-
tons at several points and been re-
warded for their efforts by an aggre-
gate gain of more than 1,tSo yards
according to the latest British official
communication.
South of Armentieres, the Germa
line was penetrated deeply on a front
of about $50 yards and southeast of
1pres on front of about 500 Yards.
Numerous casualties were inflicted on
the Germans at both places and pris-
Cners and guns also were taken. The
British casualties are said to have
been slight. Near Gueudecourt, in
the Somme sector the British also
seized a section of German trenches
and took prisoners.
Artillery Active ut Verdun.
There is still considerable artillery
activity by both the Germans and
French in the region of Nerdun, bat
elsewhere along the line held by the
French there have been no new de-
velopments. Berlin reports that an
attempt by the French to capture Hill
1855, south of Ripont, failed with
heavy casualties.
In the Austro-Italian theater bonn
bardments and small enterprises by
raiding and accommodating parties
continue. A like situation prevails on
the eastern front, from the Baltic
down into Rumania.
An attack by British detachments
between the VarGar river and Lake
Doiran on the noslh Macedonian front
has served to vary the recent opera"
tons there.
Berlin reports that the attack was
repulsed.
Submarine Situation.
Germany's submarine campaign was
described to parliament by Sir Ed
ward Carson, first lord of the British
admiralty, as serious, but he said
measures had been taken by the en-
tente under which it would be mti-
gated by degrees From February 1,
when Germany began her intensified
submarine war to February is, al
he'd and neutral vessels aggregating
5O4 600 tons had been sunk, Sir Ed
ward said, as compared with tonnages
of 234. 900 and $4,000 respectively,
for same periods in December and
January.
Sir Edward announced that the ad-
miralty had a record of forty encoun>
ters with submarines during the frs,
eighteen days of February, and in
stanced several cases where under
water boats had been captured or
sunk, but without going into partic
ulars.
CoincidentalIy, the German minis
ter of the navy, in an address before
the reichstag, asserted that Germany's
submarine expectations had been sur
passed and that there was reason to
that not a single U-boat had
been lost.

RED CROSS NOTES.

We have made our first shipment Of
knit goods, sending to headquarters on
Monday last, "a pairs of socks, 10
muffers, IS pairs of wristlets. The
work as a whole is good but right here
|I wish to say that. there are few de-
tails that are not sufficiently consider
ed. Socks must be made very pliable at
the top, knit losely but not too lose, and
we must pay more attention to toeing
off the socks any old way will not do.
We must try to toe them off as in
structed. We all wish to do our best,
am sure. Let us try just little bit
harder to make them just right.
Remember, too that wristlets must be
cast on and bound off very loosely,
otherwise the stitches will break and
the garment be ruined.
Before Co. left, a few Of us got
together and made needle books for the
comfort bags, that had been sent out
without these very necessary articles.
Monday afternoon six of us made
another supply Of them. We have now
made thirty needle books. These are
not called for in supplying bags, but I
feel. sure will be appreciated by the
boys
Three new knitters came in the last
week, namely, Mrs. A. Melgard, Mrs.
f. Wittensten and Miss Smeby. We
understand there are good knitters in
