Germany Accepts Demands.

Washington, Sept. Germany has
accepted in principle Americas in
depreciation of the rules under which
her submarines may operate. Count
Won Bernstorff, the German ambas-
sador, SO informed Secretary of State
Lansing today. The German ambas-
sador later reduced this information
to writing.
Germany's action is accepted as the
greatest diplomatic victory OF the
war. On leaving the State Depart
ment Count Won Bernstorff stated that
he considered the submarine issue, as
raised in the cases of the Gulfiight,
Lusitania and Arabic, a closed incl
dent
The ambassador said that he had
been directed by his government to
notify the United States that hereaf-
ter no merchant vessels will be at
tackled by German submarines with
out first being warned, visited and
searched and opportunity afforded for
their passengers and crew to escape.
He said that he had not taken up de-
tails at this time.
The question of payment for the
Lusitania and Arabic victims and of
formal disavowal would be discussed
by him later with Secretary Lansing.
Count Won Bernstorff said he had
not received any further details about
the Arabic but that he had been chief
ly concerned in clearing up the great
issues that have caused the strained
relations between the United States
and Germany.

School Appropriation Cut.

AS the 10000 or more youngsters
saunter, some reluctantly, to their
seats in the schools of Frederick
county after vacation of about three
months on Wednesday morning, Sep
TENDER s, the members of the Freder-
ick county school board will meet in
the court house to take final action
on a program to be followed in the
operation and manipulation of the
schools of the county during the COM
ing nine months. 1t was announced
yesterday afternoon at the offices OF
the school commissioners that the
regular meeting of the board will be
held on the morning of the opening OF
the schools of the county.
The members of the school board
are now facing another revision OF
the financial schedule. 1t has been
announced that the appropriation
from the state for the schools of the
county has been cut about $3,500 II
is said that the exemption from taxa
ton of stocks in Baltimore city, and
the new method of taxing bank stocks
which fixes fiat rate of 81 probably
has something to do with the cut in
the appropriation to this county.
It is stated that seventeen cents OF
the state tax is levied exclusively for
school purposes. After the normal
school Appropriation is taken out OF
this fund, and other specific school
appropriations, the balance is distri-
buted among the county school boards

The resumption of the school work
on the morning of September 8, will
usher into service two new school
buildings. One at Thurmont and the
other at Wolfsville. Several rooms
have been added to the North Mar

ton. A similar improvement has beer
made to the Brunswick school for the
same purpose. These improvements
have been completed and will be
ready for use by the opening of the
| schools.
All routine work attached to the
opening of the schools is being con
sidered. New books that will BIZ

real policy of this country, has awakened
herself to the real situation, and it will
be no loss of prestige or self-interest that
will be hers because she has acquiesced
in a humane and most equitable point of
international law and comfy between
nations. In fact, her position will be
much stronger with us and with other
neutrals because of her new position, and
even if the war is continued beyond the
point we all wish it to go, her standing
at the end will have been vastly improv-
ed by the triumph of right and reason
in the terrible submarine warfare that
has caused the loss of so many lives and
so much valuable property.

1t is estimated that about 100 own
ers of Ford automobiles will receive
rebates of $50 on the purchase price
of their cars, through a rebate sys-
tenn instituted by the Ford Auto COM
pany year ago, when it was
announced that il certain number
of cars were sold within the year the
above amount would be returned to
each purchaser. The checks are now
being sent out. The rebate had been
discontinued, however, and only those
who purchased the cars during the
specified period will be benefited The

Commissioners are Commended
for their Excellent Management
of Montevue Hospital.
The County Commissioners few
days were in receipt of letter from Mr.
Paul Winchester, the well known Jour-
nalist, who resides at Emmitsburg, this
county. Mr. Winchester is very well
known throughout the State, having
been correspondent on nearly all of the
Baltimore daily newspapers. and has
written special matter for newspapers
and magazines in other parts of the
country. He had occasion some years
ago to visit Montevue Hospital, and to
write up its condition The article did
not reflect very great credit upon the
management of the institution at the
time, and is in very material contra dis
tinction to the letter mentioned below,
which was written following visit to
the institution few days ago by Mr..
Winchester, and is as follows:
II desire to congratulate the coun-
ty commissioners as we'll as the man
agement of Montevue on the present
condition of that institution. 1t is a
credit to you as we'll as to the entire
county.

Our readers will no doubt miss from
the list Of qualified applicants for nomi-
nation on the Democratic ticket the
name of Greenbury D. House, whose
advertisement has appeared right along
in the political columns Of The CITIZEN.
Mr. House found that his business in !.
terests seriously handicapped and inter
fered with him in his campaign work,
and therefore he was compelled to with
draw. Mr. House is very well known
in Burkittsville district, where he oper
ates very large farm. He has always
taken a great interest in politics and it
would not be at all surprising to see him
in the fight again if he can arrange his
affairs to that end.

simply a disgrace to the county, and
its management was so slipshod and
neglected as to attract the attention
and condemnation of the entire state.
The contrast at present is remark
able. The place is clean, well-kept
and admirably managed and the COM

proval of the people, regardless of
party, for what they have DONE"

II HE headlines in the daily papers
4 yesterday conveyed most crafty
ing information to the American
people, and in fact, to all the people Of
the world. 1t was to the effect that the
great nation of Germany had acquiesced
in the position taken by this country in
regard to the horrible catastrophes that
have occurred upon the high seas
through the agency Of German subma
rine warfare. Many merchantmen have
been sunk by torpedoes in this great con-
fict, aimed particularly at Great Brit
ain, but which hit the United States in
a very vital point in her international
rights and privileges The giant liner
Lusitania, and sometime since the great
ocean liner Arabic, both of course own
ed by English concerns, but yet carrying
American citizens, were torpedoed on
the high seas, without search or warn
ing, and the wrath of this country has
been raised to mighty heights over these
terrible indignities to what we consider
our rights and titles to free and uninter-
rupted use of the open seas. The

Mr.. Citizen of Frederick County,
HAS 1T
EVER OCCURRED
TO YOU
That it is an insult to your
intelligence for any one to deliber-
ately misrepresent facts in order to
secure your support? Any man who
knows anything, knows that Senator
Lee had no connection whatever with
the attitude of the Baltimore City
Delegation on the Legore Bridge Bill.
How do we know? BY the facts
alone. Isaac Lobe Straus is the man
who alone is responsible for the vote
OF the Baltimore Delegation on that
bill, and he was the paid attorney in
that case. Did Blair Lee do ANYTHING
in that fight which could possibly be
construed into support of that bill?
The record only is authentic Pages
2l64-29l2-3014, Volume No. 2. Mary
land House Journal, shows indisput-
able evidence of Blair Lees opposi
ton to the above mentioned bill.
Such records do not lie but NAV
prove dangerous political boomerang
to those who deliberately SEEK to
misinterpret him.
