work of one submarine. according to

the reports of all his officers agreed
that to the best of their observation
one raider only was concerned. This

Grave Possibilities

The announcement that the secrc-
tary Of state would confer with tho
President confirmed the impression
gained earlier in tho day that the
American government considered The
attacks on vessels off the American
coast by German submarine fraught
with grave possibilities. At the same
time it was made clear that there is
nothing in the reports so far received
to show that international law or the
earlier promises of Germany have been
violated
Principal Concern
Concern over the situation centered
chiefly about the possibility Of what
may happen if the submarine attacks
are continued. The position of the
American government and it's determ-
ination to make a full investigation be-
fore acting was made clear in the
statement given by the President.

that Mr.. Wilson made it clear that,
while the American government had
no intention of interfering with the
legitimate activities of submarines it
would insist on the strict observances
of the pledges given previously by the
German government.
