RATHER THAN SIGN THE
NOTE TO GERMANY
that MIGHT BRING WAR
W. J. Bryan Tenders Resignation and
President Wilson Immediately
Accepts Bryan's Letter

Washington, June S.-William Jen-
nings Bryan, three times Democratic
candidate for the presidency of the
United States and author of nearly
thirty peace treaties with the princi-
pal nations of the world, resigned to-
day as Secretary of State as dram
attic sequel to his disagreement with
President Wilson over the govern
ment's policy toward Germany.
The resignation was accepted by
the president. The cabinet then ap-
proved the response which had been
prepared to the German reply to the
Llsitania note. Acting Secretary
Robert Lansing will sign the docu-
ment and tomorrow it will be cabled
to Berlin.
Secretary Bryan will return to pri-
vale life tomorrow, when his resig-
nation takes affect. 1t was learned
that he intends to continue his politi-
cal support of the president.
Rather than sign the document
which he believed might possibly
draw the United States into war, Mr..
Bryan submitted his resignation in a
letter declaring that "the issue in
yolved is of such moment that to re-
main member of the cabinet would
be unfair to you as it would be to the
cause which is nearest my heart,
namely, the prevention of war"
The president accepted the resigna-
iion in a letter or regret, tinged with
deep personal feeling of affection.
The letter constituting the official
announcement of Mr.. Bryan's depart
IRE from the cabinet to private life
were made public at the white house
at O'Clock tonight.
Bryan's Letter
Secretary Bryan's letter of resigna-
tion was as follows:
"My Dear Mr.. President:

blem of peace. harmony and mutual
love between the states of Illinois and

Mr.. Armstrong was laboring under
severe strain because of illness for
two days and cut his remarks very
short on that account, as he was
scarcely able to speak at all. Davis
