1t expect the government of the United States to omit
~ word or any act necessary to the performance Of its
cred duty of maintaining the rights of the United
ates and its citizens and of safeguarding their free
,ercise and enjoyment"
German: The quick sinking Of the Lusitania
and the loss Of life are attributed by Germany to
the explosion of ammunition carried aboard in
violation Of United States law and intended to
destroy German lives. The German note contains
this paragraph which really constitutes the-whole
answer in essence and substance, and sums up the
German case: "The German government believes
that it was acting in JUSTIFIED SELF-DE-
FENCE in seeking WITH ALL THE MEANS
OF WARFARE AT ITS DISPOSAL to protect the
lives of its soldiers by destroying ammunition
intended for the enemy" It BRUSHES ASIDE
THE WHOLE QUESTION OF RESPONSIBILITY
FOR LOSS OF LIFE by saying: "The British
shipping company. is wantonly guilty Of the
death of so many passengers" The German note
insists that the Lusitania carried cannon mounted
and concealed below decks, although the American
government has heretofore specifically denied this
on the authority of the collector Of the port Of
New York The German government does not
admit that the Lusitania was an unarmed
chairman, but asserts that it was an auxiliary
cruiser of the British navy. The United States
has relied upon British official statements to the
contrary.
