AMERICAN NEWSPAPER MAN
Is MINED UP IN AFFAIR;
LANSING OBDURATE

Washington. Sept, 1O.-The ITes-
ident's request to Austria to recall
Dumba brought about a situation
which contains possibilities extend
ing to other diplomats of the Ger
manic Allies. Dumba used James
Archibald, an American newspaper
man as messenger to carry COM
munieations to Vienna. The state
department understands that Archi-
bald also carried a communication
from Captain Won Papen, military at
tache at the German Embassy. Sec
retary Lansing said the American
government considers the sending of
any communication, i'm the manner in
which Dumba used it, an abuse OF the
American passport.
While state officials rae reticent, it
is known that the activities at Con-
sui General Won Nuber OF Austria,
as well as those Of Count Bernstorff.
the German Ambassadors are being
reviewed by the state department.
There was serious consideration as
TO whether Won Papenl or Won lNuber
be allowed to remain in this country.
Won Papens letter, which was to
his wife, Is now on the way to the
state department from London. It
is understood the writer made slight
ing reference to American officials.
Another document is an enclosure
in the Dumbas letter, which referred
to negotiations between Won Nuber
and the editor, Of a foreign language
newspaper concerning the bringing
about of strikes in the bethlehem
works, and other munitions factories.
Archibald carried the communication
from Bernstorff, but it was copy OF
the statement which was forwarded
20 the German Ambassador by Ian
sing.

(By Associated Press.)

Seattle, Wash, Sept. 10.-Henry d.
Estabrook, a. New York attorney, de.
clared in an address before the Ameri-
can Bankers association here that it
would be better for the United States
to scrap every gun and warship it now
owned than to attempt to resist in
yasion by a nation prepared for war.
mo nation threatens us in so many
words" said Mr.. Estabrook, "but who
is oblivious to hints and intimations
that speak louder than words? We
boast our strength to repel attack
when we know we are weaker than
dishwater. While every other nation
has been preparing for aggression we
have not even prepared for self-de-
fense.
81 would heartily advocate Mr.
Bryan's Quaker policy of non-resist-
ance rather than policy of half-pre-
paredness. | had rather see every
gun and warship we own scrapped if
we are not to add to them. For il we
were without strength to repel in
vasion we could at least claim the
privilege of the weak and surrender
without loss of life. Whereas. to fight
inadequately armed and certain of
losing would be nothing short of muir
der for which every taxpayer in the
United States would be measurly
responsible.
