copy of which has been received here
makes the following comment on the
American note to Germany:
1T shall, we are sure, receive the
answer from our government that IL
deserves. It's contents and language
seem to indicate that it must be con-
sidered to be the consequence OF the
anti-neutral attitude the American
government has assumed against GER
many in an increasing measure.
For this reason it is comprehen-
slble that the note has found the live
iiest approx al among Germanys enc

The British government has decided
that the photographs of every person

American regulations when a man Is
travelling with a family passport, it is
made in his name with an adenda
stating that he is accompanied by
wife and SON or other members ol

der the new British order, a photo

travelling in this country must be at

passports did not have the photo

STRONG WORDS OF WARNING
BY GERMAN STATESMAN

Berlin. May IS (via London. In

"a warning to all whom IL concerns,
Edward Bernstein, socialist and for
mer member of the reichstag, protests
against reprisals which go beyond the
conduct Of warfare in the usual sense
of the word.

badly advised comments on these in-
ciaents In German neH'spapeHs. result 4
ed in the excesses against Germans
in England and the colonies. as well
as in the United States" Herr Bern
stein writes. These exeesses are re-
grettable because they are directed
against persons not responsible for
what has been done. They are also
regrettable from a political viewpoint,
because they form another step on the
ominous path which leads to nothing
else than multiplications of the al
ready deep wounds which the war
causes.
Advocates Of reprisals will find II
extremely difficult to point to single
case where wars between civilized
people have been won by such meth
ods. The voices we hear from other
countries, which hitherto have been
outside The war territory, leave us in
no doubt that in the measure In which
one or the other side among the bel
ligerents outdoes the other in repri-
sails that side wins for itself the
stronger opposition Of those eoun-
tries.
among the people against which
reprisals are employed most strongly,
however their effect is not deterrent,
but inelines them to war to the utter
most"
Herr Bernstein adds that lack Of
moderation in methods does not prove
strength and that the nation which
understands how to set limits to the
tendency to outdo the other in re-
prsals proves itself stronger than the
one which tries to exceed in re-

For nine months the liberal cabinet

with loyal support from the leaders
of the conservative party in parlia-

brought the most critical days of the
great struggle upon them, the British
people of all parties have become
more and more convinced that the
management of their destinies by one
political party cannot bring the full
strength of the nation into the strug-
gle. Consequently a reorganization of
the forces. It is thought, would meet

The conservative newspapers have
not felt the same obligation to re-

their criticisms Of government policies

stirred up an undercurrent of discon-
