once. Much depends upon the con.
tents of the appendices to the German
memorandum which are claimed tc
contain copies of alleged confidential
instructions to masters of British
merchantmen.
ihe principal assurance given in the
Lusitania case read as follows:
Liners will not be sunk without
warning by our submarines and with.
out safety of the lives of non-com.
oatants, provided that the liners DC
not try to escape or offer resistance. ,'
The contention of the Berlin gov.
|ernment is represented as being that
all defensively armed British mer.
chantmen are prepared and instruct.
"a not only to resist, but to attack.
Consequently, it is argued the new
pohcy toward armed ships squares
with International law, the German
view being that if the British mer-
chant ships have been instructed to
sioiate and do violate the as in
terpreted by the United st. .s. Ger
many Is justified in taking measures
in retaliation.
IL Is understood that the Austro-
hungarian embassy here has receiy-
ed adVices somewhat similar to those
sent to. Count Won Bernstorff. It
could not be learned tonight whether
baron Erich zwiedinek. charge of
the embassy, would call upon secre-
tary Lansing and inform him of the
position OF his government, which
diners slightly from that of Germany.
because of the fact that virtually all
Italian ships are armed. although
tnose leaving American ports do so
under pledge that they will not use
.their guns when warned by a SUBJ
marine. Germany. not being at war
with Italy. has no particular interest
In Italian ships.
The state department holds that an
unarmed ship and q ship armed for
defensive purposes. are in identically
.the same class and must be treated
'accordinsly. Officials of the depart
ment have Indicated a Willingness to
DISCUSS with the central European
powers the question of what may
properly be considered defensive
armament and there have been inti-
nations that the government was con-
sidering revising its instructions to
port authorities In this regard.

The general assembly has at Ia st
passed law for tho registration of
land titles under conditions somewhat
akin to the Torrens system. We have
not yet had opportunity to examine
the text OF the law; put from what
we have seen Of it, we can hardly
promise that it amounts to much more
than start. We say this for the rea-
son that it does not in any way repeal
or reform existing laws on the subject
OF land titles; but leaves those inter-
ested IN transactions involving titles
the option. of adhering to the old sys-
tom or adopting the new. New York.
North Carolina and other States that
have enacted notifications of the Tor
rens system into law have done the
same thing, and as the lawyers natu-
rally prefer to hold to the old plan
and gave their advice accordingly, the
new plan has not yet made any con-
siderable headway. Under the cir
cumstances, there is no reason to ex-
pect anything different in this State
The best that is to be said of the new
law probably is that it is something Of
a start in the direction of badly
needed reform; but as to whether it
will ever amount to more than start
will depend upon the developments Of
the future. We are not particularly
hopeful about the matter--not as
hopeful as we would have been had
the whole subject been the occasion
Of long drawn out fight somewhat
