PLAN TO LESSEN
NEUTRALS' RISKS

FRANKFURT, Germany via Lon
don, June l5.-t2:55 a. mD-The
Nachrichten proposes as a method for
modifying the hardships Of subma-
rine warfare that the United States
government consent TO the stauoning
of German commissioners in Amer
ican ports to examine ships sailing
for Europe, so that those which carry
no armaments, munitions or troops
may be exempt from attack by Ger
man submarines.
The newspaper cities as preced-
ent for such action the fact that sim
liar commissioners are maintained by
the British government in various
neutral countries to examine and Ger
tify with regard to cargoes bound to
neutral ports.
The Bcrliner Tagebatt expresses
it's approval of the suggestion.
