pect for Continued Pleasant
Relations are oGod.

Whether friction between the IN
lted States and Germany has become
SO acute as to threaten continued
amicable relations is conjectural 1t
is admitted, however, that the rela-
tions are somewhat strained.
1t is reported that German Official
representing the state department,
has said that the United States has
made fresh demands regarding the
Lusitania affair-that is to say, that.
IN addition to the indemnity prom
lsed, and in addition to the under
standing that Germany will refrain
from attacking neutrals or ships car
rying passengers without giving warn
ing and affording an opportunity for
the passengers to be saved, the On
tied States now calls for disayowal
on the part of Germany.
Secretary Lansing. according to a
washington special, says that il the
German officer referred to is correct
ly quoted he states what is not true
in that the United States has made
no demands not included in the orig
inal note regarding the Lusitania sit
uation

stance OF an understanding between
the two countries as outlined in the
