WASHINGTON, June 21.-President
Wilson will issue a proclamation an
nouncing the termination of demobili-
cation Immediately upon the acceptance
of the peace terms by Germany and
removing wartime prohibition restric-
tions upon wine and beer, Representa-
tive Dyer, Republican, of Missouri, told
members of the House Judiciary Com
mittee to-day.
Representative Dyer's announcement,
the authority for which he declined to
give, came Immediately after the
Judiciary Committee had rejected an
amendment to the prohibition enforce
authority to remove such restrictions
when, in his opinion, they are no longer
necessary.
Representative Randall, Prohibition
ist argued that the President could not
remove wine and beer restrictions with
out cancelling the entire wartime pro-
hibition act. He said no action by the
President would change his plan to
offer an amendment to the enforcement
leglslatlon TO compel absolute prohlDl-
tion after July /.
An amendment to the enforcement
bill proposed by Representative Gard,
of Ohio, Democrat, giving the President
authority to suspend the operation of
the wartime prohibition law in so far
as it affects beer and wine, was defeat
ed, II to 5, in the committee.
The committee, on motion of Repre-
sentative Igoe, amended Section 10 Of
the enforcement act so it will not make
unlawful the possession OF formula
for the manufacture of beverages
Another concession by the prohibi-
tionists was the elimination of Section
%, which branded person "a COM
mon nuisance" if he carried any in
toxicating liquor on his person.
The provision forbidding any one to
tell another where he could get drink
was amended by adding the words "in
violation of this law" ----.---

LONDON, June 21 (By The Asso-
ciated Press).- The principal ships
of the German High Seas Fleet, in
termed at Scapa Flow under the
terms of the armistice, were scuttled
to-day by their German crews, who
opened the seacocks. The ships now
are on the bottom in deep water,
and the chances are that they can
not be raised.
The execution of the plot to sink
the vessels came so suddenly that
comparatively few of them could be
saved. Boats containing some Of
the crews who were leaving the
sinking ships were fired on when
the Germans refused to stop, and a
number of Germans were killed.
The wholesale sinking of the Ger
man ships was carefully arranged
by officers and crew. All explosives
had been removed, and therefore
the only means of destroying the
feet was by opening the seacocks.
The ships went down with the Ger
man flag, which the crews had
hoisted, showing at the mastheads.
No British Guards Aboard
The crews, composed entirely Of
Germans, under the terms of the
armistice, which did not permit Of
British guards aboard, took to the
boats when the vessels began to set.
tie. While making for the shore
the boats were challenged and called
upon to surrender Some of them
ignored the summons, and it was
then that they were fired upon.
This stroke apparently was an en-
tire surprise, and the first news
reached London through a corre-
spondent, who was informed by
farmers in the neighborhood that
they had seen the German ships
sinking, with their flags aloft.
The Admiralty at first denied the
report, but later confirmed it and
issued an official statement. The
German officers and crews have
been made prisoner. None of the
officials tonight would offer an opin-
ion as to how they are to be dealt
with.
Just how many ships have been
sunk could not be learned. An.
Admiralty statement said all the
battleships except the Baden and
all the battle-cruisers which were
interned were sunk. This would in
dicate that nine battleships and
seven battle-cruisers, among the
most powerful ships of the feet,
were scuttled.
Of the eight light cruisers in
termed, five were sunk and three
were saved.
Twenty-eight Destroyers Sunk
The statement said that eighteen
destroyers we're beached by local
tugs and four others were still
afioat. There were fifty destroyers

Secretary Comes
Over as Stoker
Says De Valera Visited
Mother, but She De.
nies Having Seen Him

Edward de Valera, president Of the
Irish republic, is in the United
States, in seclusion. When, where and
how he arrived are questions this ad-
venturous Irishman will answer in
person tomorrow at the Waldorf
Astoria Hotel, where a suite has been
reserved for him by his secretary.
This secretary is Harry j. Boland,
a checked, athletic person, who
preceded his chief to the United
States, arriving here about four weeks
ago. Calloused hands and rough fin
gers attest the truth of the statement
of this Member Of Parliament for
South Roscommon that he worked his
passage in the stoke hole of slow
freighter.
Next to. his skin during that muscle
racking passage Boland bore tissue
paper, typewriter plea, the fruit of
months Of effort by de Valera. It was
"1reland's Case for Independence"
later presented to the peace confer
ence. When Boland passed the imni-
grafton inspector who boarded his
ship here he hurried to the Offices of
the Friends Of Irish Freedom, pre-
sented credentials from de Valera and
arranged for printing Of his manu-
script. 1t was set up in New York
printing establishment and the printed
copies sent to Versailles, where their
appearance created something of a
sensation.
Method of Escape Concealed
Boland made the announcement YES
terday that de Valera was in the
United States, and, at the same time,
revealed the purpose of his own un-
advertised entry. He smilingly re-
fused to explain how Professor de Va
lera managed to elude the British au-
thorities and leave Ireland.
Landing in the United States with
out passports need not have bothered
de Valera, for he was born in New
York City and never has renounced his
American citizenship. Mr.. Boland said
yesterday that since de Valera's arrival
he has visited his mother, Mrs.
Charles Wheelwright, of Rochester, N.
Y, but he would not say where they
saw each other, although he denied
that de Valera had gone to Rochester.
Mrs. Wheelwright denied last night
that she had seen her son or heard
from him since his Imprisonment in
England.
Mr.. Boland said Professor de Va
lera was not in New York City nor in
the state. He also denied that he was
in Philadelphia, but he refused to say
where he was.
To Issue Statement Tomorrow
"Hc is in the United States," he
said, "and on Monday he will be glad
to meet representatives Of the press at
the Waldorf-Astoria, where we have
reserved rooms for him. Just now he
is preparing statement covering his
purpose in coming to America. He
will issue that statement on Monday.
Naturally, his chief purpose in coming
to America is to seek to obtain recog-
milton for the Irish republic from the
United States. 1t is not possible to say
yet how long he will stay in the
United States, or when he will go to
