ANCONA PROTEST
SENT To AUSTRIA
United States Demands That
Act be 0iSaVOWed and
Indemnity be Paid.

WASHINGTON, Dec. "a vigOr-
Gus protest against the sinking of
the steamship Ancona by an Aus
TRAN submarine has been sent to
Austria by Sec'y Of State Lansing.
1t was learned Wednesday that the
note was sent following Tuesdays
cabinet meeting.
Demands made on Austria are:
That the government disavow the
act.
That reparation and indemnity be
given Americans concerned.
That assurances be given that
there will be no repetition of such
warfare.
That the submarine commander
guilty Of the outrage be punished by
the government.
Austria's unsatisfactory eXplana-
ton. which confiicted with the off,
cial reports of United States consuls
at Algiers, Naples and Marseilles and
the report Of Ambassador Page at
Rome. prompted the protest. The
Italian statement and the stories Of
the survivors were also widely at
variance with Austria's version Of
the facts
The United States takes the I'M
qualified position that it has been
| esta blished that the Ancona was at
tackled without warning. II is also
1 held as an established fact that the
ship was fred upon while Hfeboats
were being filed with passengers.
These conclusions are reached by
/ this government despite the sweep
ling denial in Austria's first statement
\ Of the allegations Of the American
survivors and the italian government
which were denounced as men
daciOus inventions" A second dis
patch from Austria was 10 the effect

NATION HAS BEEN BLESSED
Multitude Of Reasons Why This Year
Gratitude Should Be Widespread
and Fervcnt.

It is one of the frailties of human
nature that when all is going we'll with
US we are apt to be thankless. l'ut
when peril is imminent, when danger
or death threatens our loved ones, how
quickly and instinctively prayer rises
to the lips and how grateful the
heart returns thanks when the crisis
is passed. So in other years Thanks
giving has been too frequently ap-
preached with thoughtless spirit as
differing no whit from the years that
have gone. Not SO today when COM
mon impulse ascribes a tangible cause
for thankfulness that, alone among
the great nations, we have been spared
the horror or the menace Of the world
war, that we have been chosen as the
custodians of civilization, the one
hope of despairing nations for return
to sanity and peace.
For it is not alone that death and
destruction have passed US by, but
that, under Providence and out of his
bounty, we have been enabled to miti
gate the suffering of the wounded, to
succor the starving and help the help.
less. More than this, too, that. as we
have kept the light of liberty flaming
for the emancipation of mankind from
ancient thralls, today we are priv
ileged to keep alive the vestal fires on
the altar of peace. Thus honored
above all peoples. held from harm.
blessed with natures abundance. and
constituted the guardians and ex-
ponents of progress amid an almost
world-engulfing tide of reaction, we
are thrice blessed and should be thrice
thankful.
