Non Partisan Cabinet
Formed In England
For the War Period

LONDON, May 2O.-The formation
of nonpartisan cabinet for the per
iod of the war is an established fact.
The spokesmen for the two great rival
parties, Premier AsQuith and Andrew
Bonar Law, made statements to the
house of commons today, confirming
the reports of a coalition ministry
which several newspapers launched
yesterday.
The prime minister said that moth
ing had been definitely arranged. but
three things were certain--that the
prime minister and the foreign secre.
tary will continue in office; that no
change is contemplated in the policy
of the country in prosecuting the war
with all energy and that the recon.
struction of the cabinet will not mean
any surrender by persons or parties
of their political purposes.

SITUATION IS SERIOUS GERMANY
SEXPECTED To REFUSE DEMAND
MADE IN THE PRESIDENTS NOTE

Germany must and will so her way
and leave it to the United States to
choose other ocean paths than those
through the war zone if American cit
liens have a desire to visit Europe in
these times and observe how Ameri-
can war materials are prolonging the
bloody war"
Defends Sinking of lusitania.
The Tageliche Rundschau says:
Owing to the presence on board
the Lusitania of ammunition which
menaced the lives of many thousand
German soldiers it was not only Ger
many's right, but her duty, to sink
this auxiliary cruiser, which was
bringing ammunition to England and
using American citizens as a SHIELD for
carrying contraband
More sacred than tine lives of nell
trails are the lives of our compatriots,
oIIr brave troops who would long since
have ended the war il America had
not prolonged it by the profitable eX-
port of arms to our enemies."'

In an article in the Vorwarts, head
ed "a Warning to All Whom 1t Con-
cerns," Eduard Bernstein. socialist
and former member of the reichstag,
protests against reprisals which so be-
'yond the conduct of warfare in the
usual sense of the word.
The Cologne Gazette makes the fol
lowing comment:
"It shall, we are sure, receive the
answer from our government that it
deserves. Its contents and language
seem to indicate that it must be con-
sidered TO be the consequence of the
antineutral attitude the American gov
ernment has assumed against Ger
many in increasing measure.
at cannot be supposed that the Ger
man administration defensGs will de
part an inch from the path which the
German government after mature con-
sideration has considered necessary
and entered upon"
