Citizenship Is Cancelled.

Thirty-five years after Frederick
w. Wusterbarth, German born, OBJ
tanned American citizenship papers,
they were cancelled, Monday, at
Newark, n. j., by the federal court,
Wusterbarth was recently removed
as postmaster at Lake View, where
he lives, because of strong pro-German
sympathies. 1T seems" United States
Judge Haight said, that the conclu-
sion is irresistible that. at the time
he took the oath of allegiance, he did
so with a mental reservation as to
the country of his birth and retained
toward that country an allegiance
which the laws of this country require
him to renounce."
In rendering his decision Judge
Haight pointed out that the defendant
had failed to deny in court the char
ges made against him or to explain
any of the %utterances attributed to
him by the witnesses.

TO FORCE A GERMAN PEACE
IS REASON FOR ADVANCE.
Germans Hope to Reach Channel and
Force Allies to Make Terms Before
America Is Ready.


A dispatch from Copenhagen says
the Germans are still of the belief
that they will be able to reach the
English channel and coast. bar law
igation of the waters and lombard
southern England, and that then it
will be easy to begin peace negotia-
tons. This view is alleged to have
been advanced by a German politi-
clan, a member of the reichstag. who
requested that his name be not used.
to a representative of the Politiken.
He added that the German offensive
thus far had proven a failure because
of heavy losses, and that the Ger
man high command was waiting to
obtain more artillery.
Questioned about the opinion of the
reichstag main committee on the stu
alton on the western front and the end
of the war, the newspapers informant
said:
1--WE still believe, according to mes
sages fro our military leaders, that
we shall reach the north coast, where
u guns can bar navigation of the
channel and fire at south England. II
is suggested from the German side
that with this another course of the
war will commence, and, as far as
Germany is concerned, it will be easy
to start armisitice negotiations, as
despite all assertions. we do not aim
at any conquering. We want neither
the mine districts at Lorraine's west
frontier or Antwerp.
1--WE have lost, including killed,
wounded and prisoners, three million
men. Do you think hat we intend to.
make foolish claims and send u
children through another four years
of war? Moreover, we shall have
enough to do during the age of man to
control the new Russian country and
secure their mercantile and Industrial
influence. Responsible German poll
~ticians only demand that the western
,tpowers shall give back our colonies

valley this afternoon when the Phoenix
High school will meet the Mesa High
school on the formers diamond. The
first game of the schedule will prove
to be one of the hardest fought battles
of the entire year from the standpoint
of psychology it is thought There is
no doubt in the mind of any baseball
coach but that if a baseball team starts
it's schedule by winning, it will have
a firmer morale, and the confidence TO
win more contests. Knowing this. the
coach of both rival schools are doubly
anxious to have their teams win in the
opening game.
The Coyotes have been having field
practice for some time and feel con-
fident of speedy victory. The Jack
rabbits. too, have been>getting in some
good ticks. and are fully prepared to
defeat their opponents.
The Coyotes have undoubtedly col
lected the greatest amount of star
players that history of the Phoenix
High school has. ever recorded. There
are pitckers. Helm and Mays, both
first class twirlers: catchers, among
whom Wilky is paramount; first raters
for every position on the diamond, in
Guiding substitutes on the benches, are
all pulling together to make Phoenix
High school the possessor of the cham
pionship baseball team OF the entire
state. In past years the Coyotes have
excelled in football, basketball and
track, but have nearly always missed
the mark with their baseball organiZa-
ton. This year, with added strength
and confidence, the Coyotes feel de-
termined to surpass every other nine
in the state of Arizona
The game this afternoon will be
called at 2:30 at the high school ath-
letic field.
