BERLIN. via The Hague, Aug 30
Grand Admiral Won Tirpltz, creator
of the German submarine policy that
gave rise to difficulties with Ameri-
ca, believes with Chancellor Beth
mann Hollweg and Foreign Secre-
tary Won Jagow that all differences
with America should be adjusted at
once.
Admiral Won TirpitZ, it is under
stood, does not look with favor on
formal disavowal of the tack on
the Arabic. He desires that most
friendly relations between the United
States and Germany be established
in the negotiations already in prog
ress, but is not yet convinced this
end can only be attained by repudia-
tion of the act of one of his sub
marine commanders.
The service of the following infor-
nation cannot be disclosed, but it is
an absolute fact that Germany's
viewpoint is as follows:
First-Germany hopes that the
American government viii consider
the informal representations already
made to be sufficient, until the official
reportsfof the subnarine commander
is received.
Second-The question of whether
the action of the submarine com
mander shall be disavowed must rest
largely upon this report.
The submarine report may be ex-
pected at any moment. Probably 1t
will be received this week.
VIZ A AcuIIArrnnNY 49, IN au1t..
Arabic report reached the state de-
partment today.
1t was from Ambassador Gerard at
Berlin, and was thought to contain
an act of the progress the Admiralty
was making in getting news from it's
U-boat commander.
Secretary Lansing did not make II
public. saying ii threw no fresh light
on the case.
Following the cables arrival Sec
retary Lansing and Presidential Pri9
vate Secretary Tumulty conferred at
the White House for more than thirty
minutes.
Neither would go into details con-
cerning their talk, but Mr.. Tumulty
said routine matters which had been
awaiting discussion for at least thfee
weeks were reviewed. Besides the
Arabic incident, 1t was believed the
Mexican situation was touched on.
While awaiting word from Berlin
indicating acceptance of the Ameri-
can demands on submarine warfare
methods, President Wilson is over
hauling the various tentative drafts
of the message OF the administra-
tion plans to send to London dealing
with the British order in council and
cotton contra hand decree
Persons In close touch with the
White House we're authority for the
statement that 1t is thus he had been
occupying much of the time he has
been able to save from his many
other duties, since it became prac-
tically certain that the German
American controversy would be set
tied satisfactorily.
"Oyerhauling' was the word actu-
ally used in describing the chief ex-
ecutive's employment with the note,
drafts of the proposed communica-
tion having been prepared already In
more than one different form both by
the President and Secretary of State
Lansing.
Changes In Note Necessary.
Originally only the order in council
was discussed. Later It became nee
essary to refer to the officially eX-
pressed intimation from London that
cotton would be placed in the Allies
absolute contraband list. Then this
step actually was taken. Finally 1t
developed that Germany planned to
"come to time" in the submarine mat
ter.
