GERMAN DEFENSE FOR

News agency In an item given out for
transmission today, zone report says

declared to be nonsenSieal, because. it

However, the distribution or life belts,
It is argued. admits of the eonclu-

nation Viii be Volunteered.

Washington, Aus, sS,-Four days
have passed since German submarine
sunk the White Star liner Arabic with
the loss OF two American lives and
the American gerernment sun is with
out the detailed and ogficial Informal
ton necessary to shape its COURSE.
The only notable development today
was a break in the official silence
which has surrounded the White
House Secretary Tumulty after con-
terrtng with President Wilson, issued
AS soon as all the facts regarding
the Arabic are aScertSined our course
OF action will be determined"
Only Frasmentary Knowledge.
Secretary Lansing declared that all
the information so far in the hands
of the state department was frag-
mentary and that details still were
being sought. Ambassador Page at
London. who had forwarded by mail
a detailed statement including some
offidSvfts OF American survivors, was
Instructed to send Immediately n sum-
mary by cable. Some dispatches were
received from him, but they were not
made public because, il was under
stood, the department was unwilling
to give out material which il consid-
cred incomplete.
Strain Grows Hourly.
While the situation still was a wait
ing one, Official quarters reflected the
strain which grows hourly. as no word
comes from the German government.
The United States had clearly ex-
pressed its opposition to destruction
Of merchant ships without warning
and had pointedly warned Germany
against repetition Of such tragedies
in which Americans are involved. In
the opinion of state department off,
cials 1t is not now incumbent upon the
American government to ask Germany
for an excuse for the conduct of the
submarine commander who sunk the
Arabic.
Instructions to Gerard.
1t is assumed that unless Germany
wishes to make an outright issue with
the United States some explanation
win be volunteered. Acting with that
thought, Ambassador Gerard was in
structed today to report whether he
had received report from the Ger
man government on the sinking Of the
Arabic. He was not, however, in
structed to ask for one.
May Not Wait for Germany.
1t is said the state department will
not necessarily wait indefinitely on
Germany before taking whatever ac-
ton is decided upon, neither does 1t
intend to invite or encourage argu-
ment. All it wants now are the facts.
When these are assembled the off,
Gals are convinced their evidence is
properly substantiated President Will
son will lay the case before the cab
met. No meeting has been called for
tomorrow, a regular cabinet day, and
all the cabinet members but three are
out of the city. Several days more
may pass before there is a definite
development. Meanwhile the situation
remains unchanged, with President
Wilson and his advisers waiting and
prepared to act as the situation may
demand.

NONE DROWNED
IN MISSOURI FLOOD
Thirty-fiVe Hundred Persons in VAL
ley Park Made Homeless.

st. Louis, Mo-, Aug. 23.-The reced-
ing of the flood of the Meramec river
today failed to substantiate reports
that twelve persons We're drowned
Sunday when the river rose to a new
high mark and il was thought that
none perished in the overflow.
1t was impossible to estimate accu-
rately the property damage from the
floods of the Meramec, Gasconade and
other Ozark mountain streams but
the large area of bottom land in east
ern and southeastern Missouri was
under water; hundreds of summer
resorters had been driven from their
clubhouses, tents and cottages along
the streams; and the greater part of
the town of Valley Park, 19 miles from
st. Louis, was inundated.
Thirty-five hundred persons in VAL
ley Park were made homeless Sunday
and this afternoon a relief committee
voted to appeal to Governor Major
Of Missouri for aid. It was said $780,
was needed for the relief of the des-
titute in Valley Park.
