viously inspired article has been pub
lished in a majority of the German

stricted region will be exposed to all
the possibilities of intensified submar-

HASTENS HOUR WHEN PRESIDENT
Will APPEAR BEFORE CONGRESS-

The re-detention Of the seventy-two
Americans brought in on the prize
ship Yarrowdale is regarded as an
other acute indication of Germany's
disregard of American rights.
If, in fact vigorous protest has not
already gone forward, it will be sent
In the near future unless Germany
promptly releases the men.
A definite sentiment gained ground
in administration quorters today that
an accumulation of acts indicating a

overt act which may be committed
against American ships.
