8RYAN WOULD INFERNO
AMERICAN PEOPLE

Two notes were givento the Amer
lean pnblic Thursday afternoon. One
WAS from William j. Bryan relative
TO his resignation from the cabinet;
the other was Germany's answer re-
garding the destruction of the Amer
lean merchant vessel, William P.
Frye, which had a cargo of wheat
consigned to Queenstown.
Mr.. Bryan said his irreconcilable
differences with the president and
the government at Washington were
two, the second one OF which being
'sas to the course which should be
pursued in regard to Americans
travelling on belligerent ships, or on
neutral ships bearing contraband of
war. Mr.. Bryan said the president
should. if it were legally possible.
prohibit Americans travelling on such
vessels; if that were not possible,
then they should be solemnly warned
and advised ITO keep off vessels sub
iect to attack" the same as citizens
are warned to keep off streets during
riot.
Germany's answer regarding the
destruction Of the wheat carrying
vessel, William I. Frye, says treat
les between the United States and
Germany (as well as international
law give to any nation at war the
right to stop the carrying Of contra
band of "a and to seize the contra
band. Continuing relative to its sub
marine warfare on merchant vessels
of all nations, the note says:
It follows then that if it cannot be
accomplished in any other way, the
stopping Of the supply may in the ex
treme case be effected by the destruc-
ton of the contraband and of the ship
carrying it.
In other words, Germany hold any
vessel. flying any flag, belonging to
any nation, which is carrying contra
band OF war, is subject to attack and
destruction by its submarines. It's
submarine warfare has already put
this theory into force and effect. Its
submarines have sunk Norwegian
ships carrying lumber. They have
sunk Dutch ships carrying oil and
food. They have sunk Danish ships
carrying food. And in each case they
made no provision for the lives of
people on board these vessels.
FOOD is c%ontraband; oil is contraband;
automobiles and their parts are con-
traband; electrical machinery, rubber
goods. brass, copper, all kinds of met
nh. leather goods. even to boots and
shoes. many chemicals and a multitude
Of other things are %contraband. Ger
many retains the right to submarine

Mr.. Bryan would have the govern

words, he would have the government

these things. which means he would
