INSISTS NEUTRAIIS SHALL BE
GUARANTEED SAFETY ON
UNARMED VESSELS
And Demands Reparation For Loss
OF American Lives-Make
Note Public Tomorrow.

WASHINGTON. June s.-The United
States today sent to Germany a note
reiterating its demand for reparation
for the loss OF American lives in the
sinking Of the Lusitania and setting
forth clearly the earnest desire OF tne
American government that Germany
signify her early adherence to the
principles OF International law-that
neutrals be permitted 10 travel on un-
armed ships without being subject TO
the dangers OF submarine warfare.
Couched In much more friendly
terms than IL was believed would be
used when the unsatisfactory answer
TO the American note OF MAY l3 ar
rived from Germany. the communica.
tion was cabled to Ambassador Gerard
for presentation to the German for.
eign office. II will BE- given out TO-
morrow night for publication IN
morning papers of Friday
AS the all important document on
which President Wilson and his ad-
visers have worked for ten days went
forth. IL had benind II the united sup
port OF the cabinet. The one man who
opposed its terms because he believed
II might precipitate war-WiIliam
Jennings Bryan - had resigned the
portfolio of secretary of>state at the
moment the note was dispatched
statement issued by MI. Bryan
revealed that President Wilson had
rejected his suggestions for an inyes.
ugation by commission for a years
i'me of the legal phases of the dispute
with Germany. during which Ameri.
cans should. according to Mr. Bryan 8
view. be warned against takipg pass.
age on any belligerent ships or on
American vessels carrying ammuni-
ton.
The President made no comment on
the statement. but the text Of the
note. II was stated. would outline
fully the position of the President and
the cabinet
Cannot Surrender Rights.
The President stands unaiterably,
II WAS stated, on the principe that
The United States at this stage in it's
history cannot afford to surrender any
OF It's rights; that the American peo-
pie had fought in 1912 for their rights
on the high seas and could not sacri-
hce those rights with the nation s
fisc and growth TO a position of com
manu- - NoIlu power.
High officials generally held the
view that Mr.. Bryans statement con-
stituted a virtual surrender of Ameri-
can rights guaranteed not only by in
ternational law, but by specific
treaties between the United States
and Germany. Mr.. Bryan's sugges-
tion that Americans do not take pass
cge on American ships carrying am
In. IL
pointed out. with the treaty Of 1928
between Prussia and the United
states. wherein either party in time
of war is given the right OF an Ameri-
can citizen TO sail on an unarmed and
unresisting merchant ship OF any
nationality In time OF war Is held by
the President and his advisers to be
an inalienable privilege founded on
the International law of the centuries.
