SUBMARINE DISPUTE
TO Be SETTLED SOON
Cermany's Answer May Not
Be Sufficient But viii
Clear the Way

Washington, Jan, 22.-The Lnsitania,
Ancona and Persia submarine situations
are on the verge Of settlement.
Following receipt Of word that Aus
tria found none of her undersea boats
engaged in the sinking of the liner
Persia, officials limited today that pos
sibly they will inquire further regard
ing the case, and request Austria to
present the evidence on which her
denial was based.
Unofficial forecasts Of the final Ger
man note in the Lusitania case said the
document may prove to be an unsatis-
factory and incomplete disavowal Of the
torpedoing and not give assurance of
safety for non-combatants aboard
freighters, as well as liners.
Nevertheless these difficulties can
easily be surmounted.
The state department will soon pre-
pare reply to the last Ancona note,
and express qualification at Austria s
pledge to observe international law in
conducting her submarine warfare.
