Germans Imperiaistic To Last Man.

David Jayne Hill, former AM
bassador to Germany, in an ad-
1ress to the trustees of the Amer
ican Defense Society here to-day,
warned that Germany is far from
defeat and discounted the theory
that the Hohenzollerns alone are
responsible for that country's i'm
perialistic ambitions. He assert
ed that the present war is a
struggle of physical systems.
The people of Germany" de-
clared DR.. Hill, ''are more loyal
to the Emperor than the Demo-
cratic party is to Wilson to-day.
The President has said that we
have no hostility toward the Ger
man people, but do not the Ger
man people support the Imperial
German Government to a man?
Didn't a wave of general rejoic-
ing go through Germany when
the Lusitania went down? How
many Germans in Germany can
you find who are not imperialistic?
| never have found one."
This, added DR.. Hill, lis go
ing to be a different world if the
Central Powers win the war and
it is by no means certain that
they will not. Unless we con-
script ourselves for this battle
and lay our wealth and our lives
at the alter Of the defense of our
institutions we will find our de-
scendants in the vortex of world
dominating schemes of autocra-
cy."
Prof. Albert Bushnell Hart, of
Harvard, in an address to men,
bers of the Executive Committee
of the National Security League,
sounded a similar warning. The
danger confronting the United
States is as great as that of 1776,
he said, land not one-third of
the people realize it."
1.-THE need" added Prof. Hart,

this country the reasons for our
entrance into the war and the
fact that the life of democracy,

hangs upon our victory over Ger

Greek Diplomat Resigns to Side
With VenizeloS.

S. X. Constantinidi, First Sec
retary of the Greek legation here,
to-day presented his papers of
resignation to the State Depart
ment and announced his allegi.
ance to the forces of Venizelos.
His action, because of his long
connection with the Greek For
eign Office, gave the diplomatic
corps a shock.
Mr.. Constantinidi declared he
had been discontented with be-
ing connected with King Con-
stantine's Government ever since
the United States declared war.
LAS see it," he said, 1T is
the duty of every humane and
honest man to arraign himself on
the side of America and the En-
tente. The whole terrible stu
alton has narrowed down to a
simple question of humanity and
civilization against German bar
barity and bestiality Of a type
almost beyond human belief.

themselves civilized human be.

through three straight games 10 vic
tory, the Seattle ice hockey crew last
night annexed the fourth and decid-
ing game in the play for the world s
championship in the arena. nine to one
from the Canadiens of Montreal.
As in the last three games the far
famed "flying Frenchmen could do
but little against the fast work of the
locals. The contest was even more one
sided than the two that had gone be.
fore, which Seattle won easily.
Last night S game lacked the dash
and vim of the earlier contests. Mem
bers of both teams were evidently fag-
ged from the pace they have been fore
ed to go during the series.
George Kennedy, manager of the
Montreal team, veteran of the ice
game, declared that last Friday nights
fracas was the most wonderful exhibi-
tion of ice hockey he had ever seen.
In describing last night S encounter
about all that needs be said is that
Seattle took the puck at the face-off in
the first period and kept it practically
.all the rest of the game with cXcep-
tions of brief intervals.

Government Orders
For Potatoes Said
To Be Coming Soon

Portland Ore, Mar 27-Inquiries for
potatoes are increasing and a fractional
advance is being offered for supplies |
at country points.
1t developed during the day that
much stock will be needed by the gov
ernment for the use of its troops and
while no actual purchases for that ae-
count have as yet been confirmed, still
the inquiries indicate liberal deals for
the immediate future.
Along Front street the market is
steady to firm. The only fear of the
trade at this time is that stocks will not
keep long enough to tide the trade over
even though they were liberal enough
for requirements.
Just why the stocks are sprouting
more badly than normal for this period
of the season, handlers are unable to
state, but it is a fact nevertheless.
Eastern markets are also more inter-
ested in Pacific northwest potatoes and
some small trading between dealers is
again reported at better prices.
Bean Market Scars.
The bean market is again soaring.
Higher prices have been forced here,
with advanced figures asked by primary
shippers. Were it not for the fact that
| Idaho is able to take care of very
large per cent of the Pacific northwest
trade at this time, and that some stocks
are coming from Oregon points, even
the present prices would have to be
advanced.
Local wholesalers forced the price of
small white to 13c a pound, or 12c bet
ter than previous quotations. while
large white was moved to 12 1-2c; or
lac higher than previous values. Bay
Gus are up 1-2c pound at 10c for the
day.
Local sellers say that now that Cali
fornia has filled their contracts on
beans, it is found that much real good
quality remains Wholesalers complain
that the Californians filled the contracts
with poor quality stuff, and all efforts
to have them deliver No. | quality on
purchases failed.
Preparations are undor way for a
very liberal planting of beans in Ore
gon, Idaho and Washington this season.
While for number of years Idaho bean
acreage has been increasing, there was
I
| Washington until last season. The pres
ent season, with the prospects for ex-
treme prices is expected to show the
greatest planting on the coast ever
known.
Wheat Orders Liberal.
Very liberal foreign business is offer.
ing for wheat not only on the Atlantic
coast but on the Pacific slope. Local
dealers report quite fair business now
available and shipments from the inter
ior are being rushed to tidewater.
There was another bullish market for
wheat in Chicago early in the day with
prices sharply higher This strength
was attributed not only to the foreign
demand, but to the crop damage reports
coming from Nebraska and Kansas The
situation in the Kansas fields is said
