The resolution provided that the

most enterprising men of the city,
and mostly the business and profess

AMBASSADOR sERNsToRFF SAYS

MESSAGE TO WASHINGTON
State Department VIII Await commu'

Washington.-Count Won Bernstorff,
the German ambassador, communi-
Gated to the State Department on Aug.
IA his governments regret and sym
pathy If American lost their lives in
the sinking of the liner Arabic and
asked that the United States delay
taking a definite attitude until Ger
many could be heard from.
This was the first word from an Of
fetal German source concerning the
Arabic, on which two Americans per
ished. It's receipt was followed by an
evident relaxation of tension growing
here as days passed with no indica-
ton of desire by Germany to dis
claim intention of committing an act
deliberately unfriendly" to the United
States.
No attempt was made either at the
State Department or the White House
to interpret the ambassadors commu'
nication. Officials merely said that OF
course the American government
would await the German explanation
of the action of the submarine com
mander In sinking the liner.
In the meantime the State Depart
ment will continue compiling evidence
forwarded by Ambassador Page and
consular officers.
