ENEMY ALIENS ARE
 IN EAnTFODl) JAIL Possible for Them to Lose Free
 dom for Duration Of War UP TO ATTORNEY GENERAL
Lighter Punishment, Confinement As
 Lesson, May Be Imposcd-i'crmits Considered "ScrapS of Papcr'-
 Other Arrests May Follow.

Five Germans who were arrested by federal agents in this city Sunday for violating the terms of their alien per mits going out of bounds, are now cooling their heels in the Hartford County jail and will remain there un- til Attorney General Thimas w. Greg ory orders their release.
 The men seized in raids on Turner hall and on the Teutonia Maennerchor
 are Otto Breitner, Alban Conrad, Gus
 tave Berndt and John Racentl. Tho fifth enemy alien, Gustave Raschat Of
 713 Stanley street, arrested by Detec- tive A. Malone of the, local police department, is confined with the four
 taken into custody by the federal au- thorities.
 Whether the men under arrest will find their freedom restrained for the dtiratTfs6ysYs fsyss'N s5f the war is problematical.
 In the Ncase of enemy aliens violating the terms of their permits no hear
 ings are necessary. If they are found out of bounds they are simply locked up, the fact that they have violated the terms of their permits being prima 1 facie evidence that they have broken 1 the law.
 If the New Britain prisoners escape
 the maximum punishment internme ent ! for the duration of the war, they may be kept in jail for some time in 1 order to give them an opportunity to l realize that the authorities at Wash 1 ington mean what they say. It was stated today by one in posi- ] ton to know, that alien enemies have
 been playing fast and loose with their ! permits and have frequently violated
 the restrictions placed upon them. Mt 1 is also said that other arrests are ex- | Dected.

Washington. Jan. S-President Will son. today addressing congress, de- livered a re-statement of war aims in by the British premier, David Lloyd George.
 The president presented a definite program for world peace containing fourteen specific considerations
 The president said:
 "Gentlemen of the Congress;
 "Once more, as repeatedly before. the spokesmen of the Central empires have indicated their desire to discuss the objects of the war and the possi- ble basis of a general peace ParIeys have been in progress at Brest-Litovsl1 between representatives of the Central powers, to which the attention of all the beiligerents have been invited for the purpose of ascertaining if whether 1t IS possible to extend these parleys into a general conference with regard to terms of peace and settlement
 The Russian representatives pre- Sented not only q perfectly definite statement uf the principles upon which they would be willing Co conclude peace, but also an equally definite pro gram of the concrete application Of those principles. The representatives of the Central powers, on their part, presented an outline of settlement which is much less definite and seemed susceptible of liberal interpre- tation until their specific program of practical terms was added. The pro- gram proposed no concessions at all, either to tho sovereignty of Russia or to the preferences of the population with

Says AdviCeS Confirm Report That
 Germans Plan Big Offensive
BATTLES IN FLANDERS
During the Conflicts, Statement Says, British Have Each Time Come Out Victorious, and Kept Pushing Ger mans Back Steadily.

Washington, Jan. S.-Secretary of War Baker today authorized the pub lication of the following review of the military operation for the past week:
 "Six weeks have elapsed since the first rumor reached us of the great thrust in the west which the enemy announced as imminent. In order to concentrate large troops masses, ade- sfuate artillery and, ample reserves of munitions much time is required.
 "Though the German higher com- nand has so long delayed before be- ginning operations, advices received seemingly confirm the information that actions are contemplated along the western front. They may be counted upon to strain every fibre of their remaining strength in an effort to make their plans succeed.
 "In considering the general military situation on the eve of a possible Ger man offensive, it must be recalled that through sixteen successive bat ties of great magnitude in Flanders, the British have every time come out victors and pushed steadily ahead. Their gains have been thodical and cumulative. The Germans have, dur ing this long series of major opera tions invariably been forced to give way The French stood like rock at Verdun and soon after drove for ward vigorously in the battle of the Somme and in turn played a. great part in the repeated drives in Elan ders.
 "The impending German offensive will possibly be their great assault. The French and British armies can be relied upon to withstand the shock.
 Tn the west no important opera tions took place during the past seV- oral days The entire front from the North Sea to the Swiss border was very active. The Germans continued their scattered thrusts while the French and British parried with numerous reconnoitering raids and careful patrolling. They remained on the uui vive, taking note of every minor change in the German order of battle keeping closely informed ot hostile troop movements and concen- trations.
 "In the Cambrai area the enemy 1 undertook an attack in force. Here the Germans, in attempting a f1anking ! movement which had as it's immed- fate objective the narrowing down of the British salient, were able to pene- 1 tr;te and hold temporarily certain British trench elements south Of Mar i coing. This action was conducted with ! great energy. The British immediate ly countered and were able to re- : capture a, part of their lost posltlons Another hostile thrust undertaken | close to the canal DuNord where the i enemy scored a local advantage as 1 he was able slightly to press back the ] British
 l southeast of Lens the enemy made l a renewed attempt to reach the Brit ] ieh OutDOStS, but this assault collapsed while the British later advanced their i trenches in this area.
 Minor raids were carried out during the week by both the British and Ger mans. Numerous patrol encounters 1 were reported.

Awaits FsCHlS.

London, Jan. S.-A reply from the Central powers to the statement of British war aims made by Premier Lloyd George Saturday is awaited here with the greatest interest. It is be- lieved Germany and her allies cannot decline to reply in some form and make the reply moro straightforward and definite than any previous state- ment of their aims. But if the Ger man papers correctly mirror the situa- ton there, the feeling which has been created by negotiations with tho Bol- shevik toward the principle Of no an neXation, has thrown Germany into political turmoil. AdVicos from the capitals of neutral countries border ing on Germany show that tho feeling prevalent there is that one of the se- Verest national crises in the hist ory of Germany is developing as a reference to the views between the militariSt and to views between militari#t and nOn- ernment'S attitude toward RuSSiu. It is reported that Gen. won LudvnGorM, as leader of the former group, actual lY has gone so far as to threaten the resignation of himself and Field Mar Shal VOu i}indcnDurg if further cOun- tpnanCe i& given even to such views aa those advanced by mon of the type of 1 Dr. Nun kUchlmunn and Count CZcrn- in. the German and Austrian foreign minister.
