Berlin.-A full settlement of the
submarine problem can probably be
arranged by negotiations in Washing
ton.
Count Won Bernstorff. German am
bassador to the United States, is in
possession of complete information re-
garding the wishes and policy of Ger
many. and has been given power to
negotiate in terms of settlement with
the United States subject only to final
revision and approval by the home
government.
A long report on the submarine sit
uation was received here from Count
Won Bernstorff and an equally long
message Of instructions went forward
to the ambassador. Both dispatches
were of a nature which seems to make
officials confident that the whole sub
marine problem can be speedily and
safely settled.
The form which the negotiations are
now taking goes to strengthen this op-
timism, for in such conversations
Count Won Bernstorff is in position
to communicate many things not
adapted to inclusion in a public note.
but which are of nature to convince
the American government of the good
faith behind Germany's assurances
and the governments settled determi-
nation to remove these sources of con-
flict on the submarine question.
The hope is expressed here that the
negotiations can be pushed through
without delay. and that no further is
sues may be brought in to complicate
settlement.

Its careful consideration to the evil

which attended the sinking of the
steamer Arabic. submitted by the
American government through Ambas-
sador Gerard. Gottlieb Won Jagow. the
foreign minister, made a statement to
this effect.
In his statement, the foreign minis
ter went fully into the present subma-
rine problem and the adventitious
circumstances which for time threat
ened to revive the tension between
Germany and America.
He expressed complete confidence
that, in view of the instructions which
had been given and the precautions
now being taken. the possibility OF
further incidents in connection with
the submarine campaign which would
disturb the relations between the two
countries had been virtually elimi-
mated
Germany. Herr Won Jagow said.
would participate willingly in the ne
gotiations now being taken up in
Washington and hopes for the most
satisfactory results therefrom.

COMMERCIAL BANK
MAKES A GOOD SHOWING

Most institutions who hold their own
and do not go backward during the
trying times we have gone and are
now going through, pat themselves on
their figurative backs and think they
have done pretty well under the cir
cumstances.
It is very gratifying to find that
many of OcaIa's institutions have
forged ahead instead of merely stand
ing still. The Commercial Bank of
Ocala, whose statement appears else
where in this issue, is one of those
institutions that has made a healthy
gain, gone right ahead and makes a
far better showing in this statement
than in that published on December
31st, just a little over three months
ago.
Since its last statement the bank
has reduced its loans nearly $4,000;
its bills payable have been reduced
over. $4,000 during this short period
and the deposits have climbed ur
$4,000.
The managers of the Commercial
Bank feel very much gatifed over
the healthy improvement in the
banks condition, and its many friend:
and customers are glad to see thi:
and other indications of steady i'm
provement in the financial condition
of this section.

We are not much concerned about
the Ananias Club-in our opinion,
Ananias wasn't much of liar any
how-nevertheless we are not going
to answer Postmaster Rogers letter,
which appears in another column.
When we commented on Mr.. Rogers
interview the other day, we had no
desire to bring on a controversy with
our esteemed old friend. We desired
to bring out certain points, some of
which the public had forgotten, and
some of which it wasn't wise to. We
have succeeded in doing this, and Mr..
Rogers has brought out some more,
so we feel like we can very well afford
to let him have the last word. We
disagree with Mr.. Rogers on very few
things, and do not wish to dispute
with him on any. We know that his
heart is in the right place-he doesn't
want the people to give up their prop
erty, or be soft-soaped out of it; he
only wants them to have the most
good out of it, and have it right away
not next decade, nor next year.
