I inferred that Germany continues
willing 10 consider peace if the allies
make overtures. 1t was my impress
sion, further, that the people believe
not only the cause of England's en-
trance TO the war has been removed
by the landing in Greece, but that the
reasons for the allies reported pro-
longing of the war have been re-
moved. During the course of half
an hours conversation with the
foreign minister the American situ-
alton was discussed. | concluded that
Germany Is awaiting Ambassador
Bernstorff full report of his nego-
tiations with Secretary Lansing; that
Germany Is glad that all differences
with America have been bridged; that
the submarine commander who sank
the Arabic told a most interesting
story, which will be sent to Secretary
Lansing, and that Germany feels i'm
measurably handicapped by the lack
of cable communications with Am
bassador Bernstorff.
Foreign Minister Won Jagow's state
ment regarding the landing of allied
troops in Greece follows:
Scores EngIand's Stand.
English newspapers are taking the
greatest pains to demonstrate that
there is not the least analogy between
Germany's entry of Belgium and the
landing of English and French troops
at Salonilli under General Hamilton.
They emphasize the point that the
Greek government and Parliament
forewent the right to protest against
the ententes procedure with armed
force; that the allies never had in
view any action upon Greek territory
which would be unwelcome to Greece.

VACCINATION IS
ON DECREASE IN
CITY, IS CLAIM
Anti-Vaccination Sentiment Is
Responsible, Declares DR..
Craster, Health Officer.

Public sentiment in Newark APP
pears to be taking an anti-vaccina-
tion attitude, Acting Health officer
Charles Y. Craster stated today. The
number of persons vacenated each
week has undergone slight but
steady and growing, decrease of late,
he said The public appears to be
forming the opinion that universal
vaccination is unnecessary and to be
avoided Medical authorities, includ-
ing DR.. Crast6r, feel that something
of this sentiment can be attributed to
the suspicion that tetanus follows
vaccination in some cases.
~ would like to correct that inl-
preston" said Dr. Craster. "Vacci-
nation has never been the direct cause
Of tetanus. When tetanns follows vac
cination, there is some other cause.
Tetanus can develop in any wound
which is improperly treated. Why.
even gunpowder, universally regarded
as responsible for much tetanus,
never caused lockjaw. If your hand
is perfectly clean, you can fire q
blank cartridge into the palm of it
and never be in a moments danger of
infection with tetanus, If the cleanli-
ness is maintained during the treat
ment and until the healing OF the
wound.

Theophle Delcasse has been one OF
the foremost of French statesmen

the inspiration which led to the for
nation Of the Anglo French entente
cordiale. He was also credited with
an effective influence in the settle
ment of differences between Russia
and Great Britain, making possible
the formation of the triple entente.
AS foreign minister in former
cabinet Nj. Delcasse aroused the bit
ter hostility of Germany, where it
was believed his policy aimed at the
political isolation Of that nation. His
efforts to extend French influence
in northern Africa in particular were
regarded with distrust in Germany,
and his Moroccan policy. leading to
the crisis of 1906 between Paris and
Berlin, resulted in his resignation

positions, and in August of last year
