People Of West Much Interested in
Project Of Purchasing PENN

Government

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
SAN DIEGO, Calf, Jan. 3.-Rich
in natural resources and awaiting
only American capital and ingenuity
to make it one OF the most valuable
agricultural and mining communi-
ties in the west, Lower California
has for years been regarded with
covetous eyes by western capitalists.
The senate resolution introduced
yesterday by Senator Ashurst, Of
Arizona, calling upon President Will
son to open negotiations with Mexi-
CO for the purchase of Lower Cali
fornia, created intense interest here
today.
Legal authorities said that while
the Mexican constitution forbids the
sale of Mexican territory, the con-
stitution could be suspended to PEI
NIT the sale Of Lower California, il
the Mexican government wished to
sell.
Lower California is today tpracti-
cally undeveloped. Its varied re-
sources lie In a dormant state. Only
two or three little towns are found
on the peninsula and the population
is meager. It's purchase would mean
big things to come finally for Cali
fornia and border states.
Arid territory would be opened up
that now is practically inaccessible.

Berger Tells Federal Court That Ger

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-Proof is lacking
that Germany ever attacked America
with submarines, Victor Berger told
a federal jury here today.
Testifying in his own defense in
the trial of Ave socialist leaders here
on espionage act charges Berger dis
puted the idea that America was
forced into war by foreign agrees
sion.
Government attorneys in cross
examination endeavored to bring to
light Berger's views on war. Con-
tinual wrangling between attorneys
was the result.
AS a supporter of Philip Scheide-
mann. German socialist, federal at
torneys said. Berger had aligned
himself with the kaiser's war aims.
This Berger holly denied. Later he
said he knew Scheidemann to be in
favor of ,wiping out Serbia and Ger
manizing the Balkans.
