ACTED TO SAVE GERMANY

Two German officers who betrayed

German defeat arrived yesterday on
the transport Agamemnon. willing
prisoners OF Lieut.. r. II. Owen Fifth
Ammunition Train. Fifth Division, and
a detachment OF fifteen soldiers. They
were hurried to Washington as soon
as the ship docked.
They were brought to the United
States because they were afraid that
no matter where they hid in Europe
their former comrades in arms would
seek them out and kill them. The A.
E. F. command. which feels It owes

American lives to them. laid careful
plans to keep their removal from

been tipped off, automatically entered
the names of the Germans on the
Agamemnon's roster.
One Traitor an Aviator.
The traitors to Germany are Alfred
Soholz. an infantry officer who was cap
tured near st. Mihiel, September q 1918,
and Alvin Grothe, an aviator, shot down
in the Argonne region, October IS, 1918.
Their rank Is withheld
The two officers regard themselves as
patriotic betrayers" of their native land
They realized, they said. the hopeless
ness of Germany's position. They knew
she was inevitably beaten. Therefore
they say, they regarded II as a truly
patriotic thing to shorten the war and
cut down the loss OF German lives by
revealing all they knew. That they
knew much of value and revealed 1t COM
pletely and accurately Is indicated by the
unusual treatment accorded them by the
American army commanders
A despatch from Washington last
night said: Before the Inauguration OF
the American offensives in 1918, oper-
atives OF the American Military Intelli-
gence Corps prevailed upon them through

BERLIN, July 21.-With Admiral
von Tirpitz's feet at the bottom OF
Scapa Flow-the navy practically
wiped out-Germany, without making
any resistance, is about to have her
aerial talons drawn by giving up the
remainder Of her fleet of Zeppelins.
The Government has refused to ask
the Allies for permission to duplicate
the feat of the British airship R-34
in flying across the Atlantic to
America and return with her Z-72, the
largest airship in the world, COM
pleted a long time ago. Baron Won
Germingen, nephew of Count Zeppelin
and head of the company of that
name, who had asked that such a
petition be made, has been informed
It would be useless, as there was no
prospect whatever that the request
would be granted by the Allies.
Builders Despondent.
Gloom has descended upon Ger
many's airship builders, who say de-
spondently that the fruits of their in
ventions, work and experience for
many years will be reaped now by
other countries.
| 1t Is expected that the allied COM
mission which is to take over the Yep
pelins will arrive here soon. and pre-
sumably the airships will be divided
among the Allies. There Is much
speculation here as to whether the
United States will get one of these
Zeppelins.
Germany had a considerable number
of these craft, but the losses were
heavy and only ten remain. Not all
of the aircraft that have been de-
stroyed were lost in the war, however
at one time eighteen were dismantled
because they had been superseded BY
larger, more successful types and new
developments.

WASHINGTON. July 21,-After refus-
ing by AN overwhelming vote to pro-
hibit the storing OF liquor in private
homes the House to-day completed
consideration of the national prohibi-
ton act providing for the enforcement
of both war time and constitutional
prohibition. The final vote was de-

co the vote tonight by insisting that
the engrossed copy Of the bill be
placed before the House before the
vote could be taken. This formality
is usually dispensed with, but Mr..
Voight insisted the roll should not be
called when many members had
gone home.
The expected opposition to preserv-
ing the sanctity of the liquor cellar
failed to develop. Only three meml
bers-Baker (CaL), Blanton (Tex.)
and Upshaw (Ga-)-voted against the
provision.
The House then decided to be even a
little more liberal. 1t made possible
