Quite recently a number Of scientists In the

Germany's Reply to Wilson's
Note Far From Satisfactory

Germans reply to President Wilson's
note reminds one of the story Of the
Irish maid who was told by her mistress
not to tell lie when an unwelcome call
! or came, but to give an evasive answer.
So when a caller demanded the mis-
tress, the Irish maid looked her over
and gave the following evasive reply
WAS yer grandmother a monkey
President Wilson has been asked, in
effect. If the people of the United States
IRE monkeys.
The reply of Won Jagow is highly I'M
sgatisfactory.
10 President Wilson's straightforward
smand that Germany cease her submar
- operations against neutral vessels,
here is no answer whatever.
This answer is implied, however,
That Germany will continue to torpedo,
without taking any too great pains TO
1scover whether a ship is an enemy or
neutral, and will continue 10 disregard
ne safety of crews and passengers.
In other words, to the motto of sea
Ayeat emptor" which is generally recog-
kised by Germany as trading nation,
1he has added "caveat viator" as war
(xi0r nation-"Let the traveller beware"
She is sorry for the Cushing and Gulf
Hight Incidents; but this sorrow is
kMingled with irritation at the masters
kof these vessels, and she tries to excuse
The actions of her men by saying that
Britain protects her commerce by mis-
see Of flags.
This is no answer at all, for We have
ipFotested to Great Britain about misuse
|pf flags, and received satisfactory re-
ny.
The vessels were neutral ships, pro-
|&ceding on their lawful occasions; and
EXO allegation of misconduct on the part

Interfering with them.
The Detroit times., 1915-06-01

Germany says that she was not to
blame in the Falaba incident.
In other words, she admits violating

hold; and her reply in this instance is
Wherefore unsatisfactory.
~ But regarding the Lusitania, Germany
makes statements which We in America
know to be absolutely false-that she
carried concealed guns. and acted as
stroop-ship for Canadian soldiery
These statements are priori, and are
denied by our own port authorities, as
