pointed out that compliance with
them would do more to renew Ameri-
can sympathy for Germany than all
other efforts fathered from Berlin
since the war started.
In addition, they have said there
Is a growing feeling of irritation
against British methods which could
be taken advantage of now and could
only benefit Germany If the Ameri-
can demands received great weight
in Berlin.
What effect their recommendations
will have is the subject of specula-
ton.
Past records, some officials intimat-
ed, indicate that the recommendations
of the ambassadors will receive scant
consideration. With Italy about to
enter the war, however, thus cutting
off another avenue into Germany
others believe that the experiences OF
the seasoned diplomats will have
more weight than usual
Proper Subjects for Arbitration.
German officials who have carefully
considered every angle of the situa

are proper subjects for arbitration.
The American note states that Unit
