Citizens OBJECT
TO BLOCKADE Of
american COAST
Regard the New German
Submarine Activities in
This Light
WASHINGTON silent
ON The NEXT MOVE
BY ROBERT J. BENDER
United Press Staff Correspondent.


LONG BRANCH, n. j., Oct. 11-Sec.
retary Of State Lansing left for
Washington today after a long confer
ence with President Wilson last
night on new problems raised by ac-
tiyities of the German submarine U-5S
Off the American coast.
The impression prevails here that
Germany acted entirely in accordance
with her promises to this government
in her operations on British shipping
off Nantucket Shoals Sunday.
But while methods employed by the
commander of the U-53 appear to
comply with this governments stipu-
lations. the larger question concern
ing the administration now is whether
the United States can tolerate further
submarine activities outside her ports,
menacing commerce and constantly
exposing to danger the lives Of Amer
ican men. women and children. There
is a strong under-current Of feeling
against any such continued practice
which might be contemplated by Ger
many. Scores of kilograms have been
received by the President from bust
ness interests demanding that sharp
reminders must be given to Germany
that she cannot virtually blockade
the ports Of the United States Some
advise that the action Of this govern
ment should not be limited TO mere
protest.
Officials here declined to comment on
what will be this governments next
step in the new submarine problem. Sec
retary Lansing would make no state
ment whatever before leaving for Wash
ngton.
After an early breakfast with Lans-
hig. the President left for game Of
golf and nothing regarding his confer
encc with the Secretary Of State was
forthcoming from the summer White
House offices. II is likely, however. that
steps will be taken at once to get
further information as 70 Germany
future intentions-if these have not al
ready been taken and TO determine
whether Germany plans to make hei
campaign against enemy shipping on
this side Of the Atlantic permanent.

ALLIES MUST RESPECT

III M Inited Press.

BY The United Press.
WASHINGTON. oct. ll.--Great Brit
ain. Russia. France and Japan having
been told by the United States that they
must accept the responsibility It one OF
their varships sinks a United States
submarine bv mistake, Washington ~
expecting a reply from these four gov.
eInments soon in the light Of the ac.
fivities of the German U-53 Events OF
the past few days have transformed
what might have been merely an aca-
denic question into a serious interna-
tional issue.
The position Of the United States
was made known to the four powers
in a memorandum delivered more than
q month ago, but only made public to-
day. II was in answer to a memorS
andum to all neutrals by the Allied
governments, following the visit mere
Of the merchant submarine Deutscn-
land and the activities Of German sub
marines in Scandinavian waters.
The Allied governments warned all
neutrals of "the great danger TO neu-
trail submarines attending the naviga-
ton of water visited by the su0mar-
ines of belligerents."
The United States government con-
cludes its reply with this significant
paragraph:
"In order, however, that there
shonld he no misunderstanding as 10
the attitude OF the United States, the
government of the United States an
nounces to the Allied powers that It
holds IL to be the duty of belligerent
movers TO distinguish between sub
marines of neutral and belligerent ma
lionality and that responsibility for
any conflict that may arise between
beiligerent warships and neutral sub
marines on account of the neglect OF
bellirerent to so distinguish be-
tween these classes of submarines
must rest entirely upon the negligent
power" ...,.- -.
Basis for the State Departments at
titude found in the opinion OF naval
oficers expressed today that there Is
little or no possibility of an American
submarine being mistaken for bel
ligerent. -,
couId be distinguished by the paint
cd number they carry. all German SUD
marines being Of the ~" series. Amer
,can and British submarines carry let
ters of various series in addition TO
their numbers, but all submarines are
of distinct type.
American submarines are turtner
distinguished when operating peace
fully by the fact that they are ac-
COMMANDED usually by tender or
launch bearing not only the American
Aag. but a submarine flag. which
warns ships that an American subma-
rine is operating in the vicinity. Fur
ther the submarines themselves ny

LONDON. Nov. 2S.-on being ask ed whether the deportation of work men from Belgium to Germany would interfere with the work of the Amer ican commission for relief in Bel gium. Herbert C. Hoover chairman of the commission said today;
 "Intriusicolly the removal of even 25O. .OOO workmen from Belgium and northern France would not material iy affect the number of mouths which have to be fed and this num- Der would diminish the total only by about per cent. The needs Of the 100000 or so who remain would not be less than before and for oth- CT reasons their needs present a constantly growing problem.
 We have at present no statement to make as to the attitude of the Allied. governments towards continu- ance Of relief or as to the rights and wrongs of the measures taken by the German authorities"
