LANSING WRITING
NOTE TO GERMANY
DEMANDING ACTION
New Representations Regarded
as Last Word and It's Up
to Berlin If Diplomatic
Break Is Avoided.
SITUATION GROWS TENSE
Teutonic Press and Officialdom
Said to Be Greatly Perturbed
Cabinet Is Pledged
to Secrecy.
GROWS TENSE

Washington, d. c.. April l7.-Tha
note to Germany, bringing the subma-
rine situation to al issue, is now be-
ing prepared. The note will demand
action. 1t will inform Germany that
the recent accumulation of evidence
shows that ships are being destroyed
contrary to promises made the United
States by Germany, and that Ger
many's explanation of the Sussex case
cannot be accepted.
Cabinet Bound to Secrecy.
In congress today a export was wide
ly circulated that the Forthcoming nota
would in itself give notice OF a sever
ance of diplomatic relations. There
was nothing to substantiate he story
anywhere in official quarters. Cabinet
officers did not deny it, upon the
ground that they all had been bound in
honor by the president not to speak
upon the subject in any way.
There We're repeated indications that
the note would be a statement of the
American case up to date without any
thing in the nature of an ultimatum,
and still would leave the way open for
Germany to avoid the long feared break
in diplomatic relations. 1t was plain,
however, that it would be Intended as
the American governments last word.
Senators of the foreign relations
committee, who ave been told by the
president that they would be consulted
before any final or drastic steps We're
taken. declared that they had not yet
been advised of the details of the next
step.
Time of Dispatch Unknown.
The impression seemed to prevail
non officials that the note to Ger
many would not go forward until the
evidence had been carefully considered,
but that enough was at han to make
UP the American case. Some officials
declared the communication would &c
within AS hours. Others. who have to
do with its preparation, We're less def
mite. 1t was recalled hat on at least
one other occasion a note to Germany
was quietly dispatched and had reached
Berlin before news of its departure was
permitted to come out of Washington.
It's Up to Germany Now.
In all official quarters here there is
evidence of the gravity of the situa-
ton. All officials agree that the ac-
emulation of evidence has brought the
situation between the two countries to
the point of a break or a decided
change on Germany's part. There is
very little left to be said about the sit
uation, because it is described as a
plain open and shut one. AS the pres
ident and the cabinet are determined

tinue. the crisis which has prevailed
between the two nations for nearly a
