HOUSE QUITS WORK UNTIL
MONDAY GIVING SUPPOR T
President Is Given Full Authority In
The Measure Which Congress
Ratified By Votes

NEW YORK, April 6.--United States
port authorities here today began for
Iral seizure of all of the twenty-seven
German vessels that have been here
since the beginning of the war. The
ships seized include the monster trans
Atlantic liner Vaderland, one of the
largest and finest merchant ships now
af1oat, besides many others of almost
equal value The crews of the vessels
seized were removed to an unnamed
point. where they probably win be in
termed during the continuance of the
war. No information concerning the
condition of the ships machinery and
other damage that may have been oc-
casioned by the crews in charge, was
given out this morning.
Telegraphic reports from American
ports, both those in continental United
States and this country's island and in
sular possessions say seizures are un-
der way by American authorities, and
that German crews are being speedily
removed from their ships. No resist
ance has been encountered anywhere,
though in most instances the seizures
were supportd by the presence of light
draft warships and bodies of marines.

being that it is an offensive campaign
