BRYAN RESIGNS AS
SECRETARY or STATE
His Reason is, That He cannot Agree
With Wilson, on Note to Germany,
Which he Fears May Lead to War.

washington, June 8.-William Jen-
nlngs Bryan, three times Democratic
candidate for the presidency, and ou-
thor of nearly 80 peace treaties with
the principal nations of the world,
resigned today as secretary of state,
as dramatic sequel to his disagree
ment with Wilson over the govern
ment's policy toward Germany. His
resignation has been accepted by the
president. The cabinet then approved
the response prepared to Germany
In reply to the Lusitania note, and
acting Secretary Lansing will send
the document tomorrow to be cabled
to Berlin.
Bryan will return private life
tomorrow when his resignation takes
effect. It is learned that he intends
to continue his political support of the
president. Rather than sign a docu-
ment, which he believed might poss-
IDLY draw the United States into the
| war. Bryan submitted his resigna-
ton.
Bryan's Letter.
Bryan's letter of resignation fol-
lows:
MY Dear Mr.. President-It is
with sincere regret I have reached
the conclusion that I should return
to you the commission as secretary of
state with which you honered me at
the beginning of your administration.
"Obedient to your sense of duty,
actuated by the highest motives, you
prepared for transmission to Ger
many note in which I cannot join
without violating what deem to be
an obligation to my country. The
issue involved is Of such moment that
to remain a member Of the cabinet
would be unfair to you as Well as to
the cause which is nearest my heart,
namely, the prevention of war. =,
I, therefore, respectfully tender
i my resignation, effective when the
note is*sent, unless you may prefer
an earlier hour. Alike desirous of
reaching peaceful solution Of the.
problems arising from the use of sub
marines against merchantmen, we
find ourselves differing irreconcilably
as to the methods, which should be
employed. "
ut falls to- your lot to speak off
icially for the. nation. I consider it
to be none the less my duty to en-
deavor, as a private citizen to promote
the end which you have in view by
means which you do not feel at liber-
ty to- use: ,-:* AsSsss~. -...s.s:s..
>".1n severing the intimate and pleas
ant relations which have existed be-
tween us during the past two years,
I permit me to acknowledge the pro-
found satisfaction which it has given
me to be associated with you in the
important work which has come before
the state department, and thank you
for the courtesies extended.
with my heartiest good whistles
for your personel welfare and for
the success of your administration,
am. my dear Mr.. President, very
truly yours,
