 Says Germany fo Lose

BALTIMORE, March 4. = Arch duke Otto Von Hapsburg, the 28- year-old pretender to the Aus trian throne, arrived in the United States today aboard the American Clipper.
 The Archduke plans to make a thorough study of United States democracy as basis for postwar central European federation of states.
 Otto declared that such a fed- eration will automatically come into existence after the war; and that there is now no question but that the Germans will lose the war. He said that the morale factor alone makes Allied victory certainty. He expressed the belief that the fed- eration will include parts of Bo- hemia, Moravia, Sloyakia, YugoSlav- ia, Austria, and other small na- tions or minorities which wished to join, what he referred to as the United States of the Danube" Ot- 10 was greeted when he arrived by his younger brother. the Archduke Felix.

Washington Geis Bigger
 Kick Out of Movie Stars
 Visiting than of Congress
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, March 4. = We cannot escape recording that Hol- lywood's film actors and actresses do not glow so glamorously in Washington as party might first suppose.
 Maybe it is just matter of To- cal pride, but we thing your aver age congressman stacks up pretty well beside Jimmy Cagney or Bad Man Bill Robinson. Seeing congressman and movie actors in the mass, you get a feeling that Rep. Joe Bimbo from Middleton is more nearly worth his $10,O0O a year than boyish Mickey Rooney his $5,OO0 a week.
 But we'll concede at once that Washington gets a bigger kick out of visiting movie actor than out of whole house full of congress- men. An average gallery in House or Senate will not exceed 200 When Dorothy Lamour hove into town, 1000 doting Washingtoni- ans mobbed the theater, broke through police lines to scream:
 'Lemme touch her. 1emm e touch her!"
