Will Worst Chancellor

Washington, Feb. 2S.-President
Wilson will withhold his reply to
Count Hcrtling until the full and I'M
censored text Of the German chan
cellcr's speech, has been received.
Meanwhile diplomats do not hest
tate to say that the Uertling speech
does not show real twill to peace"
or the part Of Germany. 1t is char
acteri5ed as but part Of a coldly cal
culated "peace offensive through
which Germany hopes to repeat on
tn: West the pclitico-military tactics
which brought her success in Russia.
Diplomats and officials expressed
themselves as confident that Prssi-
dert Wilson in due time will worst
Won 1!crtling on the battlefield Of
political debate, while the armies of
tho Allies and the United States are
si-ding themselves to strafe the
rrussian military machine.
Wilson to Answer for Allies.
II this connection it seemed prob
able ttat the task of replying to Vol.
Hertlmg would be let to President
Wilson and that neither Lloyd George
nor C!omenccau would speak despite
tho direct asIersions Of the chancel-
lcr upon their own particular war
policies.
The anxiety Of the President for
full, text Of the Won Hertling speech
and the unwillingness Of officials to
comment upon the pross reports is q
caution dictated by experience with
the speech If Count Czernin, the
Austrian premier. When a text Of
that speech was received through our
Diplomatic agents IN Switzerland, I'm.
touched by the German censors, it
was found to be in many respects ca.
sentia]ly different from the rrs:ss re-
ports cabled via Germany, Alnster-
dar: and London.

STACKER ACT PASSES HOUSE
MEASURE GOES THROUGH OVER
PROTEST OF LANSING.
Showed That Treaties Had Been Ar
ranged With Foreign Allied
Countries.

Washington, Feb. 28.-Over the
protest of Secretary Lansing, the
House has passed the so-called alien
Stacker bill by a vote of 344 to 81.
The administration will continue it's
fight against the measure in the Sen
ate. A letter was read during the
debate by Chairman Flood of the for.
eign affairs committee, in which Sec.
rotary Lansing informed the House
that treaties had been arranged with
Great Britain and Canada and that
others were near completion with
France and Italy.
Representative Burnett, Alabama,
author of the bill, replied the State
department had made many similar
predictions ever since the Uniteu
States went to war. He declared that
Congress, as well as the State depart
ment, was in duty bound to protect
1.-The native American from the alien
Stacker who would stay at home and
get the Americans job while he went
to the trenches.
Deportation Provided.
The bill as completed, provides thai
any alien who claims exemption from
military service by reason of his alien.
age, shall be deported and shall never
be eligible to American citizenship.
This, said Representative Burnett, is
the furthest the country can go. He
said that while It was legally impos-
sible to draft a foreigner, If the latter
declined, the penalty of deportation
would induce most Of them to join
the ranks.
