BRYAN rs BUSY
IN WASHINGTON
Conferring With Members
of Congress on Effort to
Prevent War.
az AssocrArEp pREss.


Washington, April 21.-Ambassa-
dor Gerard cabled the state depart
ment today that he delivered Ameri-
can note to the German foreign of
fee at 4:30 yesterday.
While Secretary of State Lansing
said he had not been advised when
a reply would be sent, officials indi-
Gated that it might be the middle of
next week.
A second message from Ambassa-
dor Gerard today Is guarded with
secrecy, but it was known today that
the German foreign minister Won
Jagow had informed Gerard that the
United States note would be given
immediate consideration.
Dispatches are looked for momen-
tarily from Gerard regarding the
views Of German officials and the
manner in which the note was re-
ceived.
Won Bernstorff left Washington for
the weekend today. He is not ex-
pected back before Monday unless
summoned.
How long the United States is
willing to wait for the German reply
has not been disclosed. It is sug-
gested that the German foreign Office
may be delayed in replying imme
diately because Of a series of re-
ligious holidays in Germany which be-
gin today and continue until Tues
day.
Former Secretary of State Bryan
who is here in the hope, as he ex-
pressed it, of being of some assist
ance in preserving peace, continued
his conferences with Democratic
members of congress today.
Mr.. Bryan's view is that sit would
be a crime to enter the present war"
The former secretary hopes that di-
plomacy in the submarine controversy
win not fail, although his chief con-
Germ he said, is with the problem il
diplomacy does fail.
The responsibility for declaring
war is upon congress, not upon the
president" declared Mr.. Bryan, "and
it is fair to assume that when the
duty of acting falls upon congress the
president will be willing to refrain
from embarrassing congress as he
was anxious that he should not be
embarrassed"
He suggests arbitration Of any
quarrel that may be had with any
European nation.
Secretary Lansing, who conferred
with the president before the cabinet
meeting said that he did not expect
any action until reply was received
from Germany or unless another shiI
carrying Americans were torpedoeC
by a German submarine. He sale
that in case diplomatic relations be
tween the two nations were broker
the work of the United States in car
ing for the diplomatic interests ii
Germany of other countries in al
likelihood would be suspended.

 Under these circumstances 1t IS not to be won- dered at that President Wilson is trying to avoid in- tervention in the affairs of our sister republic if pos sibe.

We desire peace in Mexico, and we desire that peace be brought about without our aid if possible. Americans have been murdered it
 IS true; but there is no reason why wholesale murder should be induIged in because of that unfortunate fact The invasion of Mexico by United States troops would not bring life to the victims of the Mexican murderers We must wait for the kind of reparation that other countries have exacted from the United States for the murder of their citizens or subjects The next few weeks will be tha crucial time in Mexicos affairs If Carranza shows ability to handle the domestic situation all will be well; ii otherwise, undoubtedly 1t VII be handled for him.
