London, Feb. 12.-Premier Asquith

The premier said he recognized that

Germany and England Notified that
They Will Be Held Accountable
for American Loss.

Washington, Feb. Equalization
by the state department last night Of
the texts Of the notes sent yesterday
to Great Britain and Germany re-
spectively revealed that both coun-
tries had been warned in most en-
phatic terms against menacing the
vessels or lives of American citizens
traversihg the recently proclaimed sea
zones Of war.
Germany was advised that the
United States would be constrained
to hold the imperial government to a
strict accounta biIity for such acts Of
it's naval authorities as might result
in the destruction of American vessels
or the loss of American lives and that
if such a deplorable situation should
arise the American government
would take any steps it might be
necessary to take to safeguard Amer
lean lives and property
To Great Britain the United States
pointed out the measure of respon-
sibility" which would seem to be i'm
posed on the British government for
the loss of American vessels and lives
in case of an attack by a German ma
val force" if England sanctioned the
general misuse of the American flag
by British vessels, and thereby cast
doubt upon the valid character of

PRIDE OF JAPAN IS RUFFLED
Racial Discrimination Principal erisv-
ance, Minister kato Tells an
Audience.

Toxic, Feb. 12.-Prof. Smaller Math-
ews of the University of Chicago, in
an address today before the Con-
cordia association, explained that he
had been requested to speak frankly,
and proceeded to detail some of the
doubts held by some American con-
corning Japan's attitude toward Amer
lea as well as Japan's future role in
the Orient.
Foreign Minister Kato replied with
the same frankness. While Japan's
ambition was the development Of her
place in the world, this ambition was
entirely laudable and did not contem-
plate injury to either the United
States or China. He admitted that the
question of alien land ownership in
California oftentimes had been exag-
gerated. The economic interests at
stake were slight, he said. Neverthe-
less Japan felt keenly this racial dis
elimination, which offended its dignity
and its honor
In conclusion, Prime Minister Kate
said that the criticism of Japan by
the western nations was sometimes
too severe as they implied to her a
standard of conduct far higher than
they observed themselves.
