Needed, Says
King

LONDON, Feb. 12,-'Ths struggle
in which we are engaged has reached
a critical stage, demanding more than
sources" King George declared, in
opening Parliament today.
81 have summoned representatives
OF my dominions and my Indian en-
pire to q further session Of the i'm
perial war cabinet, in order that I
may again receive their advice on
questions OF moment, affecting the
common interests OF the empire.
The aims for which my allies and
/ are contendlng recently were set
forth by my government in a state
ment which received emphatic ap-
proval from my people throughout the
empire, and provides a fair basis for
settlement OF the present struggle.
THE statement provides for re-
establishment OF national rights and
an international peace.
"The German government, however,
Ignored our just demands for resG-
tuition OF wrongs committed and guar
antees against their unprovoked repe-
titIon.
Its spokesmen refused any obliga-
tIons for themselves, while denying
rightful liberties to others.
Until recognition OF our statement
Is offered on the only principle upon
which an honorable peace can be
concluded, it is our duty to prosecute
the war with all the vigor we
possess.
81 have full confidence that my
forces in the fleld, in close co-Opera-
tion with those OF my faithful allies,
will continue to display the same
heroic courage as my people at home
the same unselhsh devotion that
already has frustrated so many OF
the enemy's designs, and will insure
the ultimate triumph OF our righteous
cause"
The King concluded by saying:
81 pray the Almighty may bestow
His blessing upon your labors."

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 12.-When the drift
toward VIII II. Hays for. national
chairman OF the Republican party be-
came more pronounced at noon today,
his hackers came out publicly for the
first time and claimed his election
without reservation.
Joseph Kealing. OF Indianapolis de-
pended upon to swing the Southern
vote away from John T. Adams, OF
Iowa, said:
at is absolutely certain Hays VIII
be made chairman and probably by ae-
clamation."
Others have been mentioned. said
Healing, "but the committeeman have
been shown no good reason why
Hays with his position in a strategic
State Qndianal, and his proved abil-
ity should not be the choice. ] be
lieve no other name will be presented

Indications that some OF Adams
strength was dropping away were
seen in the outcropping OF numerous
possibilities for compromise caudi-
dates. Among those mentioned were
Senator Frank Kellogg of Minnesota
Committeeman Fred Stanley, OF Kan
sas, and Fred Sterling, of Illinois.

warm weather has reawakened fears

washington and points above here.
Should this rain come In heavy
quantities, on which point the fore
caster could not make definite pre-
diction. there probably would be a
disastrous ice jam with its attendant
dangers.
The Government officials are
thoroughly alive to the new danger
and are ready to put into immediate
execution plans. already laid, to dyna-
mite the ice fields.
Especial danger to the bridges Is
seen in the fact that the police boat
