BLAMES TENSION

Between U. S. and Berlin,
Says British Paper.
SEES ONE WAY TO KEEP
AMERICAN FRIENDSHIP
Campaign of Murder on High Seas
Must Be Stopped by
Kaiser.

LONDON. September 1S.-Continued
tension between the United States and
Germany is attributed by the Times in
an editorial to the machination of Am
hassador Won Bernstorff. The paper re-
ferS to his reported opposition to a
Franco-Brtish loan and the develop
ments in Germany's justification of her
submarine activities as showing that
the relations between the two countries
again are critical.
THE kaiser" says the Times, zap
pears to agree with the late Mr.. Bar
mum that the American people like to
be humbugged, but we fancy he has
chosen both the wrong subject and the
wrong time for exercising his facility
in deception. He can retain the friend
ship of the people and the government
of the United States if he abandonS al
together his campaign of murder on the
high seas. In the long run he cannot,
we believe, retain it on any other
terms"

Cause of Uneasiness.

The Lokal Anzeiger says: 1t is by
no means bad idea that. as announced
in dispatches from New York, the un-
derstanding in regard to difficult ques
tions which is sought by responsible
officials will be best achieved by dis
cussion among the negotiatGrs. When
the strateglsts of suspicion stand be-
fore the door waiting to snap up each
word that passes back and forth and
put it on the wire in the accustomed
distorted manner there must exist sus-
picion or at least uneasiness. Under
such circumstances it is almost impos-
sible to accomplish good work.
Even the American press, in SO far
as it blows the horn of England with
out criticism, does not bother itself in
the slightest about result or lack of
results in line with the intentions of
the government if il can only procure
new material each day to appease it's
hunger for sensations. 1t would be d
praiseworthy thing if President Will
son and Secretary Lansing would re-
move themselves from the supervision
of this Anglo-American provocation so

View Of Previous Notes,

The Tageblatt has this TO say: If
one desires an honorable and unreserv-
ed understanding with America, it
must be admitted that the notes pre-
viousiy exchanged hardly lent them
selves to this purpose. Naturally the
standpoints of the two governments
We're expressed in these notes in a
somewhat declamatory manner, for the
benefit of the rest OF the world. The
manner in which the British press, in
and out of England, published the ex-
change of opinions and stirred up po-
litical opponents in America may have
made the newly prepared method de-
sirable to the American government
| A premise for success, however, is that

Berlin Paper Censures
Attitude of u. S. Toward
War by Teuton U-Boats

BERLIN. September 1S.-Under the
heading Freedom of the Seas the
Boersen Zeitung takes America to task
for her attitude toward submarine
warfare. 1t is a remarkable coinci-
dence. this newspaper says, that two
nations who apparently are striving
for the same goal should become in
volved in such serious differences of
opinion The article continues: Amer
ica based her protest against German
naval warfare on the contention that
she, as the most important neutral, has
commission to fight with all her
strength for the freedom of the seas.
Germany desires the same thing. That
is, she is contending against England
arrogant claim to naval supremacy.
Since her naval forces do not match
Britains, she has to resort to the new
and unusual means of submarine war
fare in order TO counteract British ac-
tivities in depressing not only German
trade, but the trade of neutrals.

Neutrals Must Suffer.

1--WE admit neutrals must suffer there
by, but they should be willing to make
sacrifices for the good cause. if they
properly appreciate the situation; the
more SO as they are called upon to suf-
fer by giving up trade in contra band.
In Washington one evidently closes
ones eyes to this obvious fact. since a
very considerable trade in war mate
rials is involved. Washington claims
exceptions for itself and for American
citizens. 1t argues that these citizens
must be exempt from the dangers of
war, even though they venture into the
danger zone, which has been labeled as
such. That is the more unreasonable
since the same right is not demanded
from England. Similar claims might be
made concerning warfare on land,
which would lead to impossible situa-
tions
He who ventures into the territory
of military operations is conscious of
the dangers involved, and often must
bear lamentable consequences. That is
a platitude. which no one who ap
proaches the question without preju-
dice can avoid.
