Germany's War Zone Decree Up for Discussion by Cabinet

Opinion is That United States Has No Grounds to Act Unless Wrong is Done Ship Flying American Flag.

WASHINGTON. Feb. C The German admiralty decree, declaring a war zone around Fnpjland and alon the north and west French coasts was disussi at Friday's cabinet meeting at which Counsellor Lansing oi the state department was present in the absence of Secretary ot 'tate Bryan. A wide variety of opinion developed but it was stated that no instructions had been given the state department to make a protest. The conservative opinion was that the United States would have "no equity of action" unless a wnn:, should be actually commuted by a German submarine against a vessel flying the American flag. It was frankly stated that if an American ship were blown up by a German submarine "tremendous consequences would follow." That the conditions created by the decree were considered of meat importance to the commerce of the United taL s was admitted. The elements of danger hinted at by Germany it is expected will have a tendency to make marine insurance rates of the United .States vessels soar. The state department is at a I op.-? to know what Germany bases the claim that there has been an unwarranted and disceptive use of neutral flags by England. Neither the department nor the British embassy has any definite information to verify the German allegation. Ambassador Gerard was cabled Friday afternoon to send to the department the text of the decrees which information he could get as the precise limits of the zone and a definite statement as to how the German iiavy intended to enforce the decree. It is manifest said one of the officials concerned that we cannot do

nothing at this point nor a.t any time until we know how the German submarines propose to deal with American ships. It seems certain that the decrees are not leveleed at American commerce as they point out how that commerce may be carried on through the North sea routes. Another authority said that it was plain from the decrees that Germany was shrewdly endeavoring to force neutral commerce into the North sea routes that she can keep the English channel blocked. This can be done without stopping or seriously interfering with the commerce to Holland which Germany wishes to be free of interference. Several of the cabinet members have concluded that the prime and essential object, of the decrees Is to prevent the further passage of troops across tho channel to France or Belglum and also to prevent the landing of war supplies on French soil. It is this latter phase of the question that gives the most concern to the state department. It is thought that Germany might declare war supply traffic absolutely contraband and even with her submarines detain American ships which were shown to have on board cargoes of ammunition, guns, etc.. from the United States. They admit, however, that as in the case of the detention of American ships by England all that could be done just now would be to file a protest in each case. The larger question of whether Germany's notice can bo construed as a blockade has been decided against Germany already by the officials of the department. The United States would not regard a blockade by a few submarines as effective in international law. This government in the last case with Nicaragua disregarded that country's declaration of the blockade of the port of Bluefields and with a

Nicaraguan gunboat attempted to stop an American vessel. Nicaragua was informed that a United States i warship w ould convoy the merchant- '

man intt. port if continued objections were made. The steamer was allowed to proceed. This government has also disregarded proclamations of blockade made by Venezuela.

say that the Carranza troops have driven the Villista forces back to Monelo a. The state department is. according to statements made there Friday, not concerning1 itself over the report that Uarranza threatens to deport the Spanish minister from the Mexican capital. That Garranza can deport a minister by declaring him persona non grata and acting: if he refuses to depart, was evidenced in the case of the Itelgian minister whom Carranza ordered out of Mexico. Belgium recalled her minister at once. Consul Silliman has been instructed to use his good offices for the protection of Angel Iel Caso, a Spanish citizen, whom Garranza threatens to punish at Mexico City.

2618 SHER1DEN, AVE. ST. LOUIS MO.

LONDON'. Feb. 6. Events of great importance are taking place along the Uelglan coast regarding which the official statements from both Paris and Uerlin are significantly silent. Thetv have direct bearing on the announced policy of Germany to blockade the Knglish and French .sea coasts and Germany's ability to maintain submarine bases sulliciently close to the held of their proposed operation: to enable them to make good their threat. For two days a terrilicartillery battie has been in progress in northern Flanders according to the tfluis correspondent of the Amsterdam Ilandelsbladt. The continuous thunder of the guns has been audible as far as tfluis throughout both days. The Germans have renewed with great vigor their offensive along the Littoral and they are hammering away without, cessation at the Franco-Helgians advanced positions. Their object is to make certain their retention of positions along the coast which will amply protect their submarine bases, principally at Zeebrugge. IJut the allies continue their progress in the sand dunes between Lombertzcyde and the se. Take- German Trend Xear Westende Friday the allies captured two of the German trenches and French aviators durinpr Wednesday night dropped bombs at Knocke, a German supply station. German aerial activity Is increasing. Four air scouts Thursday flew westward from Zeebruggo to reconnoiter the allies positions on the coast line. They were tired on but apparently escaped being hit as they disappeared in an easterly direction again. Hritish warships are patrolling the channel to drive off submarine craft bent on attacking transports and merchantmen. German gunners at Heyst and Zeebrugge arc more vigilantly on the alert. A French air scout was driven off during the day by their fire which continued for some time. Official reports are barren of any but insignificant engagements with the single except! n of a brilliant achievement of the French zouaves and African troops in driving the Germans from a trench which commanded the ground gained along the Arras-Lille highway. A mine was exploded, breaching this position and the infantry, dashing from the smoke of the explosion, cleared the trench, killing or capturing every German found there. Xisht Attack Fa IK. A night attack attempted by the Germans before Xotre Dame De Lorette was forestalled by the fury of the Kritish gun fire; French troops progressed slightly north of lieausejour, in Champagne and repulsed an attack north of Massiges. as well as a like German effort south of Altkirch in Alsace, says the night official statement from Paris. A German aviator hurled riomhs upon St. Die. killing four civilians. The Berlin statement refers only to artillery duels on the western front and French attacks upon the German trenches northwest of Perthes, which it claims were repulsed. Of the artillery actions foucht during the day along the Aisne the Paris communique says the French gunnery was most effective. Thursday the French batteries succeeded in silencing those of the enemy at Adinfer, south of Arras: at Pozkes. northeast of Albert; at Ham, northwest of Peronne, and in the sector of Pailly, south of Xoyon. The night communique states that the French have madt poo their positions at Bagatelle, in the Aronnes. where yesterday they lost by a German counter-attacks 100 yards of trenches which wa regained with some ground In addition in two return assaults.

tral shipping to avoid the coasts of the British isley, is due, according to the admiralty, to the fact that the Germans intend to proceed with every possible means against the British transports carrying troops and supplies to France. The admiralty's communication, issued by the chief admiral of the German naval staff follows: "England is on the eve of shipping numerous troops and large quantities of war material to France. We will proceed Aith all means of warfare at our disposal against these transports. "Peaceful shipping is earnestly cautioned against approaching the northern or the western coasts of France, as this would threaten it with serious danger because the vessels might be confounded with ships used for warlike purposes. "The route around Scotland (nortli of Scotland) is recommended as the best track for the North sea." While the German admiralty anticipates protests from neutral countries against its action in proclaiming a blockade of England and its warning that ships of non-belligerents might be endangered, it maintains its right to take this step without any violation of international law. The admiralty's action is indorsed by the Berlin newspapers today. They assert that England's alleged order to its merchant vessels to use the tlags of neutral nations was the direct cause of thfe admiralty's declaration of a blockade and hint that the failure of the neutral countries to protest to England shows they are silently if not actively supporting the allies. As to the ability of the German submarines to mainain a blockade of England doubt is expressed in some circles. The German naval critics point to the activities of the U-21 in the Irish sea as evidence of their value in warfare against ships upon which England depends for her supplies. The attitude of the German admiralty may be summed up thus: "We do not intend to wage war up-
