International News Service Correspondent
Berlin (via Amsterdam), May 18.-.
President Wilson's note is being care
fully studied by the German govern
ment. 1t is regarded as a friendly
message and will be answered In a
friendly spirit.
May Open Way to Peace.
The general impression. however, Is
that Germany will refuse to abandon
her submarine warfare unless Great
Britain abandons the policy which
aims at starving Germany's civilian
to further negotiations with the Unit
ed States as intermediary between
Germany and England.
1t is expected that the reply to the
American note will be sent Wednesday
or Thursday of this week A prelimi-
nary draft probably will be submitted
to a council on Tuesday.
To Bar Arbitration.
Washington, May 49, Official
Washington believes the German gov
eminent will offer to submit the ques-
tons at issue between the countries
to arbitration, but the impression Is
growing stronger that such a proposal
will not meet the approval Of Presi-
dent Wilson and his advisers.
The belief is general among officials
and diplomats that Germany will not
agree to cease her submarine warfare
against noncombatants and will urge
that a country too proud to fight"
should find a way to prevent the fur
nishing Of arms and ammunition to
her enemies by means of passenger
ships. The practice, Germany is ex-
peCted to declare, is immoral and
should be stopped at once.
U. S. to Oppose Arbitration.
The belief that a suggestion of ar
bitration will be opposed by this gov
eminent is based on the attitude taken
by President Wilson in the discussion
OF the sinking by the German raider
Prinz Eitel Friedrich of the Ameri-
can sailing ship William P. Frye.
Then it was stated that this ques-
ton was not one for prize courts, as
suggested by Germany, but for diplo-
matte consideration.

government of the United States COM
plains, that they will make reparation
so far as reparation is possible for in
juries which are without measure, and
that they will take immediate steps
to prevent the recurrence of anything
so obviously subversive of the princi-
pies of warfare for which the imperial
German government have in the past
so wisely and so firmly contended.
Wants Prompt Action.
1.-THE government and people of the
United States look to the imperial Ger
man government for just, prompt and
enlightened action in this vital matter
with the greater confidence because
the United States and Germany are
bound together not only by special ties
of friendship but also by the explicit
stipulations of the treaty of 1928 be-
tween the United States and the king
dom of Prussia.
Expressions of regret and offers of
in case of the destruction
of neutral ships sunk by mistake,
while they may satisfy international
obligations, if no loss of life results,
cannot justify or excuse practice, the
natural and necessary effect of which
is to subject nations and neutral per-
sons to new and Unreasonable risks.
'The imperial German government
will not expect the government of the
United States to omit any word or
any necessary to the performance Of
rights of the United States and it's
citizens and of safeguarding their free
and enjoyment.
