The Journal-Von Jagow has taken
the stump instead Of answering the
American note. He has. with the APP
prevail Of his Government. made a speech

arts OF the popular orator TO evade the
main issue and to befog the situation
with speclous pleas and rhetorical ap-
peals. He talks OF Frederick the Great.

The Union and Advertlser--We ask no
such favors as the imperial Government
offers us in order to secure the safety
Of our citizens. Were we to accent
these favors We should aSmit that our
citizens might travel in contravention TO
the accepted principles of international
law. We should thus be favored above
other neutrals.
We have no right to such favor. More
over. II we accepted the conditions Of
fered our position would be that OF a
nation which was in league with Ger
many by enabling her more easily TO
make war upon the ALLIES. This would
be "A violation OF neutrality by us, to
which the Allies could rightly object.
The Evening Times-If this second
note OF the imperial Government doe
not seem to meet the contention OF the
American Government in "A perfectly
stra ghtforward manner. IL does no

tween the Two nations whereby the

BUFFALO,.

The Commercial-The last expression
OF the German attitude Is that of a
pirate who states the conditions under
which he will permit us to live on the
high seas. We do not recognize any
right in Germany to regulate ocean
travel. nor are We reduced to the pi,iable
condition Of the stagecoach robbers VIC
tim who Is stripped VI his belongings,
but permitted As a concession to retain
some little trinket which he values for
Its associations. Americans are tired Of
all this Prussian plffe.
The Evening News-Amer!cans who
demand such arrangements az will
OFFER them security in the sale and
shipment OF ammunition to the bel
ligerent countries will md little to
please them in the terms OF the German
note. After all, II is a controversy be-
tween our own people. We canno, see
that the German note changes the as
pect more h a little. II a lesser man
than President Wilson were in the Presi-
dental hair we should fee, superla-

The ENpress-Whlle failing TO meet
the American demands. Germany does,
however. OFFER as a special concession
what IL has admitted TO be a natural
right, that instructions shall be given 10
German submarines 10 allow American
passenger ships 10 pass safely and that
enough other neutral or, II necessary,
enemy ships to accommodate American

this idea is utterly ~untenable.

ica's demand In reference to submarine
warfare Will be shocking to all who love
peace and right and justice. 1t is the
extreme Of arrogance, selfshness and
obstinacy. 1t starts in with false prem
ises and, of course. ends with wrons
conclusions. 1t puts an absolutely
wrong and Illegal construction upon in
t%ernational laws. Germany ever being
the beneficiary Of such wrong construc-
ton. It demands everything for Ger-
many n comedies nothing to any other
nation. not even TO the United States.
II Germany claims the obligation n
the right to violate every law OF God
and nation to protect her citizens. then
America Is at least entitled to claim
these same rights In her dealings with
Germany for the protection of American
citizens, For what Germany demands
for herself she should at least he willing
to concede to others--but never does.
Her demands are hat Germany must
survive. though 1t be necessary to de-
stroy the entire world.
The Hcrold (German)-The friendly
spirit which permeates Germany's latest
note to the United States Government
should go "a long way toward allaying
all the fears that Germany is looking
for more trouble. No one cognizant
with the real state OF affairs could for
a moment imagine that Germany would
give up her submarine warfare under
any consideration AS long as f~.ngland's
tactics are contrary to all International
laws and usagea
