ceived at Berlin and Settle
ment Expected.

Americans Believed to EN-
barrass Position of Coun-
try With Foreign Nations.

WASHINGTON, June 1.-THE Unit
ed States and Germany are on the
way toward an amicable and mutually
honorable settlement Of their grave
differences. This was the accepted

In Berlin, where the firmness of its
tone was not overlooked, but 1t was

ton Of this government to come to
reasonable basis Of agreement.
Two Weeks for Reply.
The reply Of the German foreign Of
flee to the American note transmitted
two days ago, is not expected for about
two weeks, but there Is noticeable
increase in the optimism OF govern
ment officials. This more hopeful feel
ing regarding the controversy. how
ever, was mixed with some concern as
to the Interpretation Germany and
other foreign countries may put upon
the propaganda sponsored by the re-
tired secretary Of state, William ].
Bryan.
The former premier has issued an
other statement explaining his posi-
ton, his latest appeal being addressed
to German-Americans. who are asked
to use their influence upon the Ger
man government to persuade 1t not to
take any step which may lead to war.
CrltIeise Bryan.
Because Of his recent utterances at
a critical period in the nations history
Mr.. Bryan has not escaped severe crit
icism, and 1t is understood that his
activities at this time are not wholly
understood or pleasing to official
Washington.
While Germany considers the sec
ond American note, It became known
In official quarters that this govern.

PLAN ENTERTAINMENT

DR.. I. s. Harold has sent the fol-
lowing suggestions to Townships:
1t would be well for each township
to hold at an early date in a convent
ent place meetings for the purpose Of
conferring together and make the pre-.
liminary arrangements for joining in
the parade and attending the Fourth
