Further retreat was impossible. She

Stealthily she managed to slip out of

WASHINGTON. belief exists
in official and diplomatic circles here
that general peace negotiations may
be set in motion among the belligerent
nations of Europe if the United States
succeeds in reaching perfectly salts

That Germany's sudden change of
front toward this country and her will

Bernstorff, the German Ambassador to
the United States, to make her sub
marine warfare comply with the de-
mands of the United States have made
a profound impression abroad is fact

here from the European capitals. As
suming that Germany's promises are
genuine. worldwide opinion would
seem to have conceded that the United
States has attained position of pow
erful influence from which to address
new offers of mediation to the warning
powers.
Next Protest To England.
It is a forgone conclusion here that
as soon as the German controversy is
put finally to rest, the United States
will address to Great Britain a vigor-
Gus demand for relief from the hard
ships imposed on American commerce
by the British orders in council and
contraband DEGREES. In doing this
Secretary Lansing will be in position
to inform Great Britain that Germany
has removed the chief excuse which
the British Foreign Office has
pleaded in justification of its own I'M
precedented restrictions against neu-
trail commerce, namely, the excuse
that Germany was conducting an IL
legal form of submarine warfare
iustifying extreme retaliatory meas
ures. 1t is expected that on the basis
of the success he has met with in deal
ing with Germany. Mr. Lansing will
insist that Great Britain modify her
orders in council and contraband de-
crees and permit American cotton and
American foodstuffs to reach Ger
many. Should Great Britain, too, re-
cede, it is believed that the United
States, by getting the two countries,
through her, to agree TO modus
vivendi for the protection of neutral
rights in the war zone, will have paved
the way for general peace negotia-
tons.
