GERMAN JINGOES
Object TO Peace
With WASHINGTON
Fear That Any Concessions
at This Time May Mean
Eventual Defeat
Gerard keeps U. S. IN
Touch With SITUATION
By JOHN EDWIN NEvIN,

United Press staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON, June 19.-The Ger
man military element is making a de-
termined stand 10 keep the diplomatic
party from making concessions to the
Unite States. Both official and unofi-
cial advices from Berlin indicate this.
The reason is declared to be belief
that If the United States secures all
the concessions she demands, a mis-
taken imp ss.ion will get abroad that
Germany fears eventual defeat. The
conflict at Berlin is declared to be the
first real difference of opinion that
has developed since the war began. AS
yet the outcome is in doubt.
The military group is declared will
ing to concede that Americans are en-
| titled to their governments protec-
ton under all circumstances and that
| they and other neutrals have a right,
under international law. to go any
where they please; but the groups
leaders are urging the government to
! put squarely up to the United States,
the proposition, that inasmuch as the
allies are carrying munitions on pas
senger vessels. the government here
should take up for serious considera-
ton, former Secretary of State
Bryan's suggestion that the navigation
laws be so construed as to compel
steamship companies to keep passen-
gers off such boats.
The suggestion also is made that
the United States could easily with
hold passports from American travel
ers who will not agree to take
passage on vessels under the Ameri-
can flag
The President and his advisors are
watching the conflict of ideas care
fully. They have already recognized
the military elements shrewdness in
getting its opinions presented in this
country in the form of seeming franl
newspaper dispatches telling of thu
opposition TO any modification of th'
submarine warfare. There is NJ
doubt in the Presidents mind, how
ever. that the German imperial chan
cellor, the foreign minister and tn
group of officials who will 20. X.
the German reply are sincerely anx
ious to adjust the two countries diff
ferences satisfactorily.
Ambassador Gerard is keeping th
President advised of the progress Of tn
negotiations in Berlin. He has hel
several conferences with the foreig
! office and it is expected he will be fur
nished with an outline of the note be
fore its dispatch to the United States.
The proposed protest to Great Britai
against the order in council is slowin
being framed in the meantime. 1t
officially stated that it will not be rC
duced to writing until after the Presi
dent returns TO Washington from Cor
nish, probably on July Z.
