AMERICAN
ALLIANCE ASSAILED
Congress Told Order Was
Formed For Purpose of Pro-
noting "Kultur."

Washington, D. c.. Feb. 25.-Hear-
judiciary committee on the bill by Sen
ator King of Utah, to revoke the
charter of the German American ALI
ance.
Those supporting the bin We're heard
first. Representatives of the alliance
We're ready to testify and declared they
would denounce the charge that the
organization was diSlOyal.
Gustavus Ohlinger, a Toledo. Ohio,
lawyer, who said he had studied the
organization closely, spoke for Senate
Kings bill. He denounced the German
American alliance as an unpatriotic or
ganization. the object of which was to
establish doctrine of pan-Germanlsm in
the United States as had been done IL
Austria.
The entrance of the United States
into the war put a stop to the activi-
ties of the alliance in his country
Ohlinger said. The bylaws of the ALI.
ance belle its real purposes, he con
tended, and a consistent campaign had
been conducted everywhere in the
United States to teach German III the
| public schools.
An article appearing in the official
organ of the alliance in which the
teaching Of German was urged, was
referred to. Ohlinger said that at the
time the article was written Joseph
Keller. Of indianapolis. Ind. was editor
of the organ, II also president of
the indianapolis school board.
Ohlinger declared a study Of its activ.
tiles shows the alliance has done moth
ing to further the study Of American
ideals and Institutions In the public
schools OF by German immigrants, al
| though that Is stated in the bylaws as
one of its purposes. Had the activities
Of the alliance continued In the United
States 1t would have resulted in es.
tablishing the German population in
this country in solid blocks for the
furtherence of German interests, he de.
clared.
In 1914. ohlinger said, the German
emperor conferred on c. j. Hexamer
former president OF the alliance, the
order Of the fourth order OF the Red
Eagle for distinguished services in
America in behalf Of "kultur."

Anzacs First to
Water Horses in
Historic Jordan

London, Feb. 25.-Much Importance
is attached to the arrival of the British
on the banks of the Jordan Reuters
Limited learns from an authoritative
source. General Allenby's advance
from Jerusalem was carried out under
great difficulties. 1t was made during
heavy rains and when the British had
to amrch over hills comparable only
TO masses of slippery a
possession of Jericho is an impor-
tant step toward establishing touch be-
tween the British and their Arab allies.
General Allenby's force is now en-
canped along the Jordan. With the
latest adVices the British position is
Wen defined. The right flank rests on
the Dead sea and the left on the Med
~lterranean. so that if the enemy wishes
TO attack he a only make a frontal
assault The British now control the
pea sea and ave access to the rich
lands cast of the sea. They also men
ace the railway running toward Da-
mascus, while the country has better
roads than that around Jerusalem.
Capture Of Jericho, the military cor
respondent of the Daily Telegraph says,
deprlves the enemy of one Of the chief
iiocai points in his defensive scheme
in Palestine.

Germans Make Ready For Is.
Mile Retreat Along Sector
Now Held by General
Pershing.
ANTICIPATE U. S. DRIVE
May. Be Precaution Against
Contingencies or Part of
Plan to Induce France
Tc Quit.

London, Feb. 25.-The Germans are
reported to b. building another Hin
denburg line far in the rear of their
present line on the Lorraine front. The
new line is behind the famous st.
Mihiel salient and centers on Metz the
powerful German fortress.
Military observers believe the Ger
mans are preparing to make Metz the
pivotal center of a 25-mile retreat along
the front being held by the American
troops.
No immediate abandonment of the
| present line is anticipated. IL it is
evident the Germans are preparing for
any contingency that may develop from
the offensive ultimately to be launched
by General Pershing.
A retreat along this front would
abandon the whole Woevre plain to
the allied armies.
Preparations of a new defense line
along the Lorraine sector may be only
a precautionary measure in anticipa
tion of General Pershing's army becom-
ing a serious menace to the German
flank. Again it may be ar indication
that the Germans plan to withdraw
from France.
There has been talk recently that
the Germans, If their present lines be-
come ~untenab]e. will withdraw entirely

German st~ratcgists are said, in some
quarters, to believe that more could
be accomplished by the evacuation Of

than by continued occupation of the
| territory now held. France, 1t is
claimed would have less incentive for
| Fighting, once her soil is cleared of
the enemy
Such a move also woul transfer the
fighting to German soil. bringing the
war closer home to the German people.
