AMERICAN NOTE MEANS
NO MORE ATTACKS
A Break With Germany Will Surely
Result if Warning is Not
Needed.
GERARD PRESENTS NOTE.
Without Ceremony---U United States Re-
fuses to Compromise With Ger
many.

The note presented at the German
Foreign Office by Ambassador Gerard
yesterday. as viewed in Washington
means that another submarineeattack
on American life viii result in break
between Gedmany and the United
States.
The climax of President Wilson'S
warning to Germany in reward to the
rights of Americans comes in the final
sentence of his note, as follows:
Friendship itself prompts it
(the United States Governmentl
to say to .he Imperial Government
that repetition by the command
ers of German naval vessels of acts
in contravention of those rights
must be regarded by the Govern
ment of the United Sattes, when
they affect American citizens, as
deliberately unfriendly"
But that is not the only expression
through which President Wilson
vioces the determination of himself and
the American people. He notifies Ger
many that the United States will con-
tend the rights as a neutral with
out compromise at any cost"
Practices of the German naval for
ces such as have been protested by
this Government, If persisted in, will
constitute "an objectionable offence
against the sovereignty of any neutral
nation affected"
AS against these severe statements
ther is a feature of the note which is
expected to far toward allaying the
deep anti-American feeling that is
likely to be aroused IN Germany. The
Presidents warning that the United
States vii contend forAmerican rights
rights on the high seas without COM
apply equally to Great Britain as well
prmise and without cost" is made to
as to Germany. These rights will be
protected from whateyerquarter vio-
lated" is the way Mr. Wilson puts it.
There is no doubt that this will be
regarded, bith in Germany and in the
United States as a promise on the part
of the Government to deal as vigorous
ly and insistently with British viola
tion of neutrality rights on the high
seas as with those of Germany.
1t often has been asserted that could
the German Government and people
be convinced that the Inited States
Government was sincerely trying only
to asert its rights and not to favor the
Allies as against Germany much of the
resentment caused by the submarine
issue would instantly disappear This
expression was deliberately written liz
the note with this phase of the Ger
man attitude in mind.
Mr. Gerard, who presented the note
without ceremony. remained in con-
versation with DR.. Won Jagow thirty
minutes. After leaving the Ambassa-
dor was surrounded by newspaper
men, to whom he would give no init
nation regarding the exact contents
of the note. DIR. Won Jagow was also
reticent. Arrangements for its publi-
cation are being made.
The note was transmitted to Berlin
in seven sections. The first two ar
rived last night and the remaining
sections were all there by o'clock
this morning.

AS WE GROW OLDER

our minds are quite as active as in
former years but our strength does not
respond when we need it most; perhaps
the kidneys are weak, the liver torpid,
rheumatic pains or stifened joints
beset us, and we cannot easily throw
off the colds that winter brings.
What we need is the rich cod liver oil
in SCOTS Emulsion to renew the blood
and carry strength to every organ of the
body, whileits glycerine soothes the res
piratory tract, and its hypophosphites
strengthen the excitable nerves.
SCOTS Emulsion is a scientific oil
food, of unusual benefit to those past
fifty years-particularly during the
colder seasons, it imparts warmth and
creates strength. One bottle will prove
its worth. No alcohol or harmful drugs.
