PREMIER BRAND MAY
BE OBLIGED TO RETIRE

Paris, Feb. 25.-Correspondence Of the AS
sociated Press.-Premer BRAND is in .
situation, with reference to the parliament
similar to that which preceded his first fall
from power in February, 1911. There Is a
wellgrounded belief that he may again be
obliged to retire
A public vote in which deputies and sem
ators are obliged to take their responsibilities
before the country gives the government a
majority Both houses seem to be with M.
BRAND, yet the committees are against him
and they are, as they were in 1911, making
it extremely difficult for him to conduct at
fairs. He himself explained in a recent de-
bate in the Chamber how the committees and
interpeators in both houses were taking the
greater part of the time he needed for the
conduct of the war.
Well posted political observers say that the
hostities Of parliament in committees is quite
likely to force N, BRAND to the same de-
cision he took under similar conditions in
1911.
The opinion is expressed in some quarters
that NJ. BRAND would have fallen long ago
had it not been that the opposition was not
able to agree successor. No available
man stands out clearly for the post.

FISHERMEN'S ACT
CAUSES SERIOUS
ASPECT IN LENT

Boston, March 12.-The fishing
trade out of Boston and Gloucester
ranked as the two largest fish centers
of this country, is facing stagnation in
the middle of the Lenten season. The
strike of members of the New England
Coast Fishermens Union, called three
weeks ago, today found 40 vessels tied
up at their piers, with no prospects OF
an immediate settlement in sight.
Union leaders declared that only half
a dozen vessels were on the fishing
grounds or on the way back. With the
landing of their catches, 1t was said,
only four vessels, the owners of which
have settled with the union. would be
engaged in the fisheries out of these
ports.
There has been no considerable
shortage in the supply Of fish thus far,
according to the fishermen, because
returning vessels landed cargoes in
every instance before the men walked
out

Germany Should Know
Attitude u. S. Churches

New York, March 12.-Germany, says
a statement made public today. by the
New York Federation of Churches
should be made aware of the essential
unity Of our people and of their loyal
determination to make all sacrifices
necessary to protect our liberty and to
maintain cur honor"
To this end the federation urges all
groups Of citizens throughout the coun-
try to give immediate public express
sion to their convictions regarding the
situation between the two countries.
This appeal. the federation says, is
prompted by the possibility that the
imperial German government Is misin-
formed respecting the temper Of the
people of the United States, Just as
that government is supposed to have
miSconceived the sentiment of the
British empire at the outbreak Of the
European war"
The federation declares that after
exhausting the resources Of diplomacy
in an effort to avert war President
Wilson has now taken the only course
consistent with national self-respect. 1t
urges the establishment of perna-
merit and Democratic system Of defense
based npon universal service and train
ing under direct and exclusive federal
control.
This declaration Of principles sub
to al the protestant denomina-
tons OF the city was approved by l5S
Churches and opposed by So.
