Cites Case of Mexico. ‘“We have people in Mexico who own land and yet we not only advise them to come out of Mexico,” con- tinued Mr. Bryan, “but we pay their expen and provide ships on which they may return to their native land. It was better to come away than to stand on their rights. The same Tule will apply to a much greater extent in our relations with Germany. The interests of a community or of a na- tion may require a temporary sus« pension of rights.” SPAIN BELLICOSE TOWARD GERMANY Prominent Deputy Declares Coun- try Will Enforce Respect Paris, Feb. 5, 5:15 a. m.—Ale Jaean, Spanish deputy and leader of the re- publican party in Barcelona, inter- viewed here today, declared that Spain should protest energetically against the German submarine cam- paign and make clear her intention to defend herself if necessary. “Spain possesses,” said Deputy Ler- roux, “the means of making herself fully respected. She can say and will say to Germany ‘Halt! You have here 100,000 of your compatriots, fifty of your ships lie helpless in our ports and you have, besides, important material interests in Spain; therefore avoid all acts keenly to affect the lives and in- terests of Spaniards.’ “Should there be a diplomatic rup- ture between Spain and Germany—you will note that I hesitate to say that there will be—this should be remem- bered: If Spain recalls her ambassa- dor from Berlin the last representa- tive of a great country disappears from that capital. “Spanish policy, in my opinion, should dictate a reply protesting ener- getically against German pretensions and making cleear our intention to de- fend ourselves. At the same time our representative at Berlin should re- main there to continue his work of hu- manity and justice. That of course could only last until our national hon- or was insulted. However, the world thanks America today for having won a victory of justice, a certain prelude { to the victory of arms which I look for.”” Brazil Holds Up Protest.

FRENCHMEN LAUD WILSON'S COURSE| Editors Praise President and the American Public Paris, Feb. 5.—“President Wilson has accepted Germany’s challenge,” says Georges Leygues, president of the foreign affairs committee of the chamber of deputies in a statement given out here for publication. *“This act, accompanied with calmness and firmness, is characteristic of the eminent statesman who presides over the great American republic. It is an event of immense political significance. “The near future will show us what will be the economic and military consequences but the mere fact that the greatest and most pacific of neu- tral powers declares before the world that concern for its dignity and se- curity obliges it to break with Ger- many is most important. It is prob- able other peoples will answer the moving appeal of Mr. Wilson and rally beside the United States to im- pose on the Central empires respect for their llghts and elementary laws of humanity. These words represent in a nutshell the best opinion in France as ex- pressed by responsible citizens and by newspapers. Among other commenta- tors, Joseph Reinach says in the Figaro: “There would have been no more America if the Washington gov- ernment had resigned itself to Ger- many’s threats. Even the patience of good giants has a limit.” Former Premier Clemenceau writes in L'Homme en Chaine: “An in- flexible logic carries America and Germany henceforth toward unavoid- able acts. Neither dne can be drawn back. It will be Germany’s war against the whole world.” Gustave Thery writes in the Meuvre: “Without looking for hidden meanings and reservations in the clear discourse of President Wilson we are perhaps nearer to intervention than appears on the surface. The Meuvre asked yesterday: ‘“Who is neutral now? Mr. Wilson has just replied “Nobody.” ** Gustave Herve says in the Victoir: “President Wilson has just written his name in the history of mankind be- side the immortal names of Washing- ton and Lincoln. Hurrah for Wilson. Hurrah for the great American people.” Does Not Expect War. Rome, Feb. 4, Via Paris, Feb. 5, 10 a. m.—The Osservatore Romano does not believe that the rupture of diplo- matic relations between the United States and Germany is likely to lead to actual war, partly because of the policy followed by America in the past and partly because of the difficul- ties of armed conflict between the two countries on account of their physical situation. “Probably the neutral nations,” says the paper “after protesting will sus- pend the departure of their steamers to avoid further complications, hoping thus to bring an end to the conflict. Consequently the German threat would remain without effect.” Stands With United States. Rio Janeiro, Feb. 5—The Correio De Manha in a leading editorial on Pan-Americanism says: “President Wilson has intervened in the European war and thereby broken down the narrow limits of the Monroe doctrine. But there is noth- ‘ing in this act which is not consistent with the traditional polley of Amerl- ca. The war has entered a new phase, in which no nation will be able to re- main isolated. In this grouping of powers our place is at the side of the United States. Our destiny lies with the republic of the north. It is to be expected that troublesome times to come will result in realization of the Pan-American ideal. Expects Support for U. S. London, Feb. 5.—The Manchester Guardian believes that President Wil- son* has already received assurances that other great neutral powers will follow the lead of the United States. “The United States,” says this paper, “takes her fitting place today as the greatest of the neutra] powers and their leader. If other powers, notably the powers of South America, should join the United States in this step there is a strong probability that they also will join in the next and decisive one of entering side by side into the BOXING AT YALE Tad Jones Orders Boxing Included irn Training Routine fo: Football Play- ers~-Mosey King to be Instructor. . New Haven, Feb. 5.—Mosey King, boxirg instructor at Yale, will play an important part in the conditioning process of the Blue football squad, according to the present plans of Head' Coach Tad Jones. A few days ago Jones came out strongly in favor of boxing as a conditioning exercise for football men and urged that every athlete spend some time in the manly art of self defence. Yester- day, hcwever, the word passed around the Yale campus that Jones has made boxing a part of the conditioning rou- tine for footbul 1 men. This edict means that boxing training is com- pulsory for all football candidates. Head Coacl Jones firmly hel that the conditioning of athletes is the onc important factor in the moulding together of a champlionship team. Players out of condition, ac- cording to Jones have no . place on the football squad. It is his plan to have the candidates keved up to the pitch of superlative fitness when the 1917 season opens and he has in- 1917. CASH IN ADVANCE. MINIMUM CHARGE 10c ONE CENT A WORD EACH INSERTION.

One of the main reasons for the success of the Yale team last season was the | splendid condition of the men. This point was satisfactorily demonstrated in the pame with Harvard when only one,substitute was used. During the latter vears of Yales slump in football some of the play- ers were flayed for their failure to keep in condition. Time and again the players committed flagrant viola- tions o, the training rules. Under the new regime, however, the players will hove to toe the mark, as Jones is sincere in his desire to prevent disaster, if it is to be laid to the peor condition of the men. YALE COAST PATROL READY FOR SERVICE Aviators to Take Up Course of [nstruction at Once New York, Feb. 5.—Aerial Coast Patrol Unit No. 1, composed of stu- dents in Yale University, has offered its services to the navy department and ‘'is awaiting orders. F. Trubee Davison, son of Henry P. Davison, one of the members of the Morgan bank- ing firm, is head of the unit. Young Davison communicated yes- terday with his father in the south. His father approved of the move. Then he talked it over with the other members of the unit, after which they wired the Aero Club of America. The result was that President Alan R. Hawley of the Aero club sent a for- mal offer by wire to Secretary Daniels, saying the unit was ready to obey orders from the secretary of the navy. The unit will leave college immedi- ately and take up advanced training in naval .aeronautics. The unit al- ready owns four seaplanes, and other machines of the latest approved navy type are under order for it. The unit was organized last July and took an active part in Lhe fleet manoeuvres last fall. The members are F. Trubee Davi- son and Henry P. Davison, Jr.. sons of Mr. Morgan’'s partner; Robert A. Lovett, son of Judge Lovett, chair- man of the board of directors of the Union Pacific Railway; John Vorys, John Farwell 3d, Albert Ditman, Wellesley Laud Brown, Artemus T. Gates, Eri C. B. Gould. Allan Am C. D. Wimans and A. D. Sturtevan David H. McCulloch and W, F. Sulli- van are their instructors. ; During the fleet manoeuvres in September two members located the attacking torpedo boat fleet in a thunderstorm, landed safely and re- ported the location of the fleet by telephone. They flew at a helght of 3,100 feet and were not seen by the fleet through the storm clouds. Dur- ing their course at Yale this winter the members have heen studying na- val aeronautics at ihe New London navy yard. The guard at the army aviation field at Mineola has been doubled and no visitors were admitted yesterday, al- though hundreds applied. There are 175 men, including the aviators, sta- tioned at Mineola, and more are ex- pected today from the recruiting sta- tions. The army fliers have twelve aeroplanes in active service at Mineola and the work of training is proceed- ing with rencwed vigor.
