WASHINGTON, May 2.-Anthony Caminetti, commissioner of immigra- tion, said tonight that Edward White, immigration commissioner of the western coast was not acting under any special orders from Washington in rounding up alien undesirab1es in San Francisco, Seattle and other coast cities.

PARIS, May 2-The naval terms to be embodied in the peace treaty with Germany which finally have been com pleted, do not provide for the sinking of the larger German warships 4he disposition of these vessels is left to be decided later by the allied and as- sociated powers.
 It is felt that the final disposition of the enemy ships is purely an inter- allied question and not one, for inclu- sion in the treaty, which provides only for the surrender of the vessels. 1his action is regarded as indicating that the warships will not be sunk or de- stroyed.
 After the enemy ships are divided among the allies each power will de- eide on the dispositions of it's own quota. The general impression here is that the French and Italians will retain their share and incorporate the vessels in their present fleets, while the British and American tendency inclines to the destruction of their quotas.

HISTORY OF CASE

LOS ANGELES, May 2.-Mayor F. T. Woodman of Los Angeles was in- dicted March q by the county grand jury on a charge of asking, receiving and agreeing to receive a bribe to protect vice.
 It was charged that the mayor had agreed to accept $25,000 from George Brown and George Henderson in re- turn for allowing them what practical ly would have been a monopoly on the operation of certain illegal resorts in Chinatown and other districts close to the business section, without police molestation.
 The S25,000, it was alleged, was to be paid in ten monthly installments of $25OO each. Of the S25,OOO, it was ;. leged Brown and Henderson actuaI4y paid $2000 in January to Horace w Karr, a former newspaperman, who was accused of receiving it in behalf of Mayor Woodman for his interest and under his direction.
 Purity" Squad Fixed" Charge
 AS a part of the alleged conspir- acy for the protection of vice the in- dictment charges the mayor caused the appointment of Sergeant William Hackett as head of the so-called SQudu, HuOS6 IL was to suppress various forms of vice. Brown and Henderson were indicted on a charge of bribing Mayor Woodman at the same time the true bill was voted against the official
 The indictment followed an inves- tigation by the grand jury under the direction of Thomas Lee Woolwine, district attorney. A number of city officials testified.
 According to the mayor the entire affair is political plot designed to prevent his reelection as he had just previously announced his candidacy. Mir. Woodman furnished bail in the sum of $1O,O00 and employed counsel Pressure was brought to bear upon him5to resign or ask to be suspended as mayor pending the outcome of his trial but he refused to do so. After a spirited debate the city council voted to allow him to discharge the duties of his office.
 Intimidation, Says Prosecution
 MT. Woolwine charged the police department was being used to intimi- date state witnesses and to embarass the prosecution. He issued an ap- peal to the citizens asking their CO., operation in furnishing any evidence they might have in connection with the case.
 The defense charged that the dis trict attorney had piled certain wit nesses with liquor and otherwise had improperly conducted the investiga- tion which resulted in the indictment of the mayor.
 An important factor in starting the investigation were telegrams alleged to have been sent the mayor by Kerr from Sacramento. The mayor after his arrest made two of these public.

LOAN LESS THAN
 THIRD SUBSCRIBED
Must Tie. Up Credit Unless Buying by Individuals
 Increases Pace

WASHINGTON. May 2.-With only seven working days left, more than two-thirds of the Victory Liberty loan remains to be subscribed. Treasury department figures tonight showed S1,- 497, ,S47,600, less than one-third of the loan quota, pledged.
 Individual subscriptions in nearly every reserve district were said to be running far short of those in previous loans, apparently indicating that the public was not awake to the necessity for raising the full $4,50O, 100000 asked for in order to bring the men back from overseas, complete demobiliza- tion and care of those wounded in the service. Plans immediately were laid and telegrams sent to every state or ganization in the country to make the last seven working days of the cam- paign productive of sufficient indiyid- ual subscriptions to put the loan lover the top" without calling on the fin ancial institutions and tying up credit.
 The St. Louis federal reserve dis trict leads the country in having sup- scribed 59.6S per cent of its quota and two other western districts, Chicago and Minneapolis, rank second and third, respectively. The southwest, or Dallas district, was at the bottom when the latest tabulation of subscrip- lions was made.
 The amounts subscribed by the feo- sral reserve districts together with the percentage of quota attained by each district as officially reported to | the treasury tonight were as follows:
