By GUSTAV sCHwEPPENDICK.

Berlin July 21-The Vienna papers are
vehemently attacking President Wilson S
attitude toward Germany. The Berlin
foreign office is playing a waiting game.
1t does not wish to infiame public opin-
ion. but is delaying any action or reply to
allay public excitement. 1t has no idea
of discontinuing submarine warfare. The
German people would not permit any
thing of this sort.
The public here firmly believes the Ger
mans are certain of winning the war,
whether America is hostile or not. but
Americas friendship after the war is
much desired.
warsaw's fall is expected within
few days and the correspondents are
getting ready to witness the triumphal
entrance of the victorious German
army into the Polish capital.
Sure of Warsaw's Fall.
Mai. Moraht, the noted military crit
ic, in the Tageblatt, expresses the
opinion that the Russians cannot ex-
tricate themselves from Won linden
burg's longs" which already almost
wholly encircle them. and the biggest
Of all battles is now progressing. Here
there is believed to be no doubt about
the result, and Berlin is getting ready
to hoist its flags.
On this account the brusQueness of
the American note is SO much the more
dangerous.
Berlin cannot understand President
Wilson. Even well-informed Germans
ask me whether he wishes open break.
The German government is more pacific
than the German people. An open break
with America proba bly, would be hailed
by a ma jority OF Germans today with
joy Not So with influential men or Off
Gals But the great mass of the people
are incensed against America because
they think President Wilson is trying to
interfere with their submarine war
against EnSland-and the submarine eX-
cites universal enthusiasm here. This is
the situation. But it is PLAIN that Ger
many officially is trying to regulate her
submarines so as to prevent the open
break.
Driven by British.
Many German newspapers misrepre-
sent President Wilson by saying that he
is now insisting that Germany shall
give up her submarine warfare. That
phrase in his earlier note is still making
trouble
pers, and the hideous falsehoods heard
on the street. the following is quoted:
Everything goes to show that Presi-
dent Wilson acts under compulsion from
the British capital. Previous rumors
of a secret American-British agreement
seem To explain his attitude. He is not
his own master. He is the raught
animal which is being harnessed to the
English wagon and is now dragged into
the marsh

By FREDERICK WERNER,

the German chancellor. returned to Ber-
lin today from central headquarters Of
the east, where he discussed with En-
peror William the latest American note.
DR.. Won Bethmann Hollweg found upon
his return that hostility against the
United States is growing hourly. being
fostered, in some instances, by the press.
The radicals are In favor Of ignoring
the latest American note by refusing to
answer 1t. but. there Is stiff opposition
to such a course from the conservatives.
Most of the socialists are upon the side
of the conservatives and are in favor Of
making some sort of conciiatory reply
which will not compromise Germany.
The Deutsche Tagezeitung in its
third editorial upon the American note.
sets forth the principle that II Germany
has a right to sink trawlers and small
vessels in the war zone waters around
the British Isles, she certainly has the
legal privilege to sink trans-Atlantic
liners carrying contraband Of war, no
matter IL there ars citizens Of neutral
countries on board.
Foreign ONCE Silent.
In this connection the Deutsche Tage-
Zeitung says in part:
THE note should be considered with
all the great questions with which it
is connected. Submarine warfare
against England should be made not
only upon trawlers and other small
vessels, but should be extended to in
clude transatlantic liners carrying
contraband of war. no matter II there
are neutral citizens on board. This
must be made very clear in our answer
to the United States"
In official circles silence is main
tained but it is admitted that very
serious consideration is being given to
the note and the various issues con-
nected with it.
Americans with Germans.
There seems to be a growing belief
in official circles that President Will
son is asking too much of Germany in
regard to the submarine. The subma-
rine is Germany's only effective naval
weapon at present and any curtailment
of the methods employed would impair
its power.
Keen disappointment is expressed
that the negotiations between this
country and America, instead OF lead
ing to a settlement of the submarine
are apparently provoking
a situation of the utmost gravity.
Even some of the American citizens. |
who have long been residents Of Ger
many and who have absorbed tho Ger
man viewpoint, criticize the attitude
of President Wilson.
