WILSON'S LIBERTY
 TALK INC!TES NEAR
 REVOLT IN GERMANY
German People, Impressed By Presidents Views, Threaten to Respond, But Imperial ists Subdue Them.

COPENHAGEN. April 6. (via Lon don President Wilson's appeal for declaration in Germany seemingly has created much apprehension in conservative circles in Germany judging by the energy with which the CTS are campaigning against it
 Count von Reventlow in the Teges Zeitung returns to the attack against the concept built up, as he previously explained. on a false version of Pres ident Wilson's remarks on early dy- nastic wars. He devotes a second ar ticle to the Russian features of the Presidents message concentrating on this point. detailing the need for in ternal reforms and army reforms. Ger many's foes. Count von Reventlow writes. evidently counted that Amer ica's participation in the war would make the deepest impression on Ger many, not only robbing the Germans of their confidence of victory. but also bringing about q predomlnance Tn Germany of the spirit of liberty, which each of our enemies regards. and rightly, as equivalent to the de- struction of Germany as a power"
 Count von Reventlow finds that the events in Russia can be wonderful and heartening" only in this sense and in that of the opening of a field for the investment of American capi- tai Otherwise. he says. the develop ments can only discourage the en- tente. since the. Russian military force in no circumstances can be stronger. and probably would be much weakened thereby and the prospect of unlimited chaos is open.

 "Blackened walls of what must have been manufacturing plants were to be seen in many towns, the salvage of which would scarcely pay for their removal Agricultural implements on the farms were destroyed. churches and cathedrals were reduced to mass of ruins by fire or by explosives.

Mir Farrell acted in the steel price negotiations as vice-chairman of the special committee of the American Iron Steel Institute recently appoint ed by the council of national defense to facilitate the securing of construc- ton material.
 Through voluntary agreements pre- viously affected with copper, brass, munitions, ship building, and other concerns. the department already has resented in today's steel and torpedo agreements. Except in cases of neces- sity Secretary Daniels will not invoke the new law permitting seizure of plants.
 Although officials permitted it to become known several days ago that the government had exercised its new authority to prevent eXorbitant war profits. it was not announced until to- day against what company the action was taken.
 The department first asked. it was said. that the Bliss Company reduce

its torpedo bids, and when it found that reduction Of $500 torpedo was the best that could be secured by ne- gotiation. Mir Daniels ordered the ord nance bureau to determine the cost of profit. thus fixing a fair price. The bureau fixed price Of S157S per tor pedo under the original bid submitted and the secretary informed the Bliss Company that it would be required to fill the order promptly at the new fig ures.
 Today representatives of the com pany informed the secretary that they would gladly accept the order on the new basis and speed up the manufac- ture.
 The result of invoking this new provision of the naval bill" MT. Dan iels said, has saved the department $2193 .696 on one order. We expect all munitions makers to furnish the government what it needs at prices which investigation shows to be req sonable so that it will not be neces- sary to take over any plants"

FRENCH TOWNS RECAPTURED

Ambassador Sharp Says Over Stretch of 100 Miles, Wan ton Destruction By Ger mans Incompatible.

WASHINGTON. April 6. - Never before in the history of the world has there been such a cruel destruction wrought either by vanquished, or victorious army, as that which the Germans wrought in northern France according to the report of hundred mile trip in that section by Ambas- sador Sharp. made public today at the state department.
 The statement follows:
 "A telegram from the American ambassador at Paris dated April l. states that upon invitation of the French government he visited, March 31. many French towns recently re- taAen in the invaded territory.

WAR SUMMARY.

A state of war exists between the United States and Germany.
 When President Wilson signed his proclamation declaring state of war exists, the United States for the sec ond time since 1874 entered into war with an European power. Seizure of all self-interned German ships in American waters has been carried out and war measures are being hurried to completion While the United States is the first republic of the west ern hemisphere to join the ranks of the belligerants in the world war. there are indications that such steps may soon be followed by others. President Menocal of Cuba has urg- ed the Cuban Congress to declare that state of war exists between Cuba and Germany. Anti-German feeling is reported high in Brazil after the sink ing of Brazilian merchant vessel, and Brazil also may join in defending herself against German methods of naval warfare

Paris reports that grenade attacks brought French successes in reconquering lost ground east of Sapisuel. Elsewhere north of the Somme there has been no infantry action of moment.
