BE DISPATCHED TODAY
Understood to be in the Nature Of a
Final Statement by the United
States.

washington, July 21.-President
Wilson and Secretary Lansing, con-
ferring at the White House tonight,

disaster such as that visited upon the
Lusitania or any violation Of Ameri-
can rights on the high seas resulting
in loss Of American lives VIII be re-
garded as ''unfriendly." 1t Will be

sions Of American rights and re-
peats that the American government

by the position it has previously de-
clared.
The note is about 1900 words long.
While nowhere in 1t is there any di-
rect intimation Of the course which
the United State will pursue IN the
event of another disaster similar to
the Lusitania tragedy, there are en-
phatic statements throughout the
communication pointing out that the
discussing Of the principles involved
future conduct of German submarine
commanders VIII determine the re-
sponsibility for the continuance OF
friendly relations between the two
countries.
The statement that future trans
gressions viii be regarded as ''un-
friendly is taken In diplomatic usage
to presage a break Of friendly rela-
tions unless reparation and disavcw-
al is forthcoming.
From six o'clock this morning until
late tonight the president, with the
exception of a few hours spent in
recreation, was at work on copy OF
the note. Secretary Lansing, who
had drafted it, worked on the original
and took it to the president tonight
with several changes. The president
agreed with Mr.. Lansing's suggestions
and tomorrow the document will be
finally revised in phraseology before
starting on its way to Berlin.
