 WORK IN GERMAN POLITICS In Opposition to Severance of DipIo-
 natie Relations.

April 24. - Indications that powerful influences in German politics are opposed to any action by the Berlin government whicn might lead to the severance of diplomatic re- latiOns with the United States are un- derstood 10 be contained in confidential despatches received today by the state department from Ambassador Gerard Socialists and labor leaders are re- ported as being particularly averse to any such move.
 Other despatches from Mir. Gerard were said to contain strong intima- tons that the Berlin Government would make some concessions to the United States in reply to the note de- mandins the immediate abandonment of present methods of submarine war fare It is still uncertain. however whether the concessions will be sufi- ciently broad in uaeir scope to meet the American demands.
 Officials allowed it to become known that Mir. Gerard's despatches indicat- ed that Germany would go to great lengths to preserve friendly relations with the United States. Mfr. Gerard Is understood to have gained his views during conversations with Berlin of- ficials. including Foreign Minister Won Jagow.
