Unless Germany should. without
equivocation. admit attacking the YES.
sci. which had aboard more than a
score OF American citizens. inflict ade.
quaio punishment upon the comman-
der Of the submarine and in other Ways
show evidences OF good faith. action
of a drastic nature undoubtedly will
follow. Details Of the policy to be
pursued are expected 10 be formu.
