U. 5, WILL AWAIT
 GERMAN REPLY.
Before Expressing View of Accept ing Proposals on Submarine War

ashington, July Manifestations to- day were that the United States would await the receipt of the German reply to the note on submarine warfare as finally delivered to Ambassador Gerard nefpre expressing a view on the ac- cepta bility of the recent German pro- posals. Officials here general declined to express any opinion on the sugges- tions made by Germany in the tenta tive draft informally submittel to Am bassador Gerard. It was not under stood that Germany had requested Ambassador Gerard to learn the views of this government, but merely had transmitted a rough memorandum of the proposals so the United States could if it chose, make comment
 It is considered most likely that the United States will decline to enter into discussion while awaiting Gernany's reply. Thus far no instructions have been sent to Ambassador Gerard, al though of his own initiative, he asked if there were any, and it is not al- together certain that any will be sent except, perhaps to make inquiry as to when the final draft of the reply will Be ready. Officials here are hoping it
 
 has elapsed since the American note was sent.
 Further Messages.
 Further messa ges from Annbas- sador Gerard were today trans rnitted to President Wilson at Cornish, N. H., outlining the point Of view of the German government on submarine warfare as embodied in a tentative draft of the German reply tc the last American note.
 The despatches tended to show that Germany is anxious to bring about 2 eomprornise on the question. of her submarine campaign and there were indications in official quarters that the proposals in their present form are rfst acceptable to the United states. Just what means would be adopted to inform Germany of the disapproval ofs the United States is not apparent. 1t is believed here that Ambassador Gerard will be instructed within day or two to make clear in advance of the receipt of the formal and final CODY of the German note that he IS unable to make any comment.
 Proposals Unsatisfactory.
 Although from press despatches and ether sources it appeared that the German proposals were unsatisfactory the situation was not regarded in we'll informed quarters as hopeless, much encouragement being drawn from the fact that a tentative draft of the note was submitted to the American am fJhssador This, it was believed, in dicated that if the preliminary draft. MAS not satisfactory there might be changes made~to meet the American. point of view on submarine warfare. It was believed that President Wilson would today direct Secretary Lansing to instruct Ambassador Gerard re- specting the proposals made.

Forty Athletes Are
On Way to Baltimore
Western High Has Seventeen Entries for Johns Hop
kns Meet Tonight in Monumental City-Epis-
copal Lads From Alexandria Expected to
Make All Others Hustle.

Forty athletes from the high and

are competing against until the

Episcopal High School made the best
time of any of the schoolboy relays in
the George Washington games last

Western hustle for the honors. Central

beating anything in this section.

ENGLISH TO DECLARE .
FOOD CONTRABAND
Within Short Time British Gov.
ernment Will Issue Edict on
Consignments to Germany.

LONDON, Feb. 20.-All food consigned
to Germany will be declared absolute
contraband by the British government.
proclamation to this effect will be is
sued within a short time. All doubt AS
to the future action of Great Britain
has been removed by the note trans
mitted to the United States. which
states that the cargo of the American
steamer Wilhelmina will be DISPOSED Of
by the action of Il prize court.
The note IL i'm effect an emphatic
though courteous warning that Eng
trail nations with the policy that it has
decided upon as result of the Ger
man government taking control of all
food within the empire
This warning is conveyed in para
graph of the note saying that the Brit
ish government confidently expects
"such action will not be challenged on
the part of neutral states by appeals
to laws and usages of war whose valid
ity rests on their forming an integral
part of that system of international
doctrine which Germany boasts the
liberty and intention to disregard. That
Germany bungled in handling the food
situation is the assertion made by Brit
ish experts in international law. They
declare her action in communicating
food and placing 1t under control OF
the government was one of the gravest
errors she has made.
In this connection it is learned that
the British government had already
drawn UP proclamation placing an
embargo upon food consigned to Ger
many when It received notification that
Germany had altered her stand. This
caused a delay in England's final action.
This phase of the situation is treated
in the note to the United States with
q statement that notice has just been
received in the repeal by Germany OF
article As of the German decree. This
article held that all grain and flour
imported into Germany after January
81 should be delivered only to certain or
ganizations under direct government
control or to municipal authorities.
Great Britain claims that article Il
was repealed by Germany in order to
render difficult the anticipated pro-
ceedings against the Wlihelmina," and
that it would be necessary for a prize
court to determine to how far the
ostensible reversal by Germany affects
imported food.

u. S. Chamber Protests
Against Deitrick Bill

Every member of Congress received
from the Chamber of Commerce of the
United states today copy of the reso-

contended would prevent the study of
methods to increase industrial efficiency
in Government manufacturing establish
ments. and forbid bonuses to employees

and efficiency.
Tho proponents of the anti-Deitricls
resolution say the measure il aimed
against the Taylor system. now in effect

courages scientific study by the grant
ing of rewards for results obtained in
excess Of a certain standard.
