on high authority. admits that Germany
Is liable for indemnity because Of the
fact that American lives ware lost when
the ship went down.
The United States, however. has in
sisted that tho liability should bc ad
mitted on the express ground that the
attack IN itself was illegal. Germany
construes this as an admission of tho
illeeality Of her method Of conducting
submarine warfare and she will not con
cede this point
Whatever gravity there is in the situa =
ton lies in the omission Of the word
'illeear In tho last memorandum.
President Wilson. II IL stated. has here
tofors insisted on its use out Of re-
Rard for what he believes IL the abso-
lutte necessity of getting Germany com
mitted In writing to tho proposition that
her submarine reprisals which led to the
attack on tho Lusitania were Illegal.
Without such an admission. his friends
declare. the President has felt that there
would always be danger Of a return to
the practice.
In German circles IL Is insisted that
for Germany TO admit that these re-
prisals were illegal would be tantamount
to saying that International law Itself
which recognizes reprisals, is In con-
f,ict with law.
A Fine Disttnction.
Tho distinction. officials privately ad-
init. Is "A fine one. Whether II would
appeal TO the people Of tho country, upon
whom the consequences Of a break would

Thus far the President has not con.
ferred with Secretary Lansing. unless
by telephone. The Secretary sent a copy
cf the Berlin memorandum to the White
House last night. Since then the Pres
ident has been analyzing 1t without ~
slotance. II is expected tha, he will
confer with Mr.. Lansing on Monday
and perhaps reach a decision in time tn
submit the question to his Cabinet on
Tuesday.
As viewed in Washington. the Ger
n1an note is susceptible OF a favorable
construction by this Government. The
question for the Presiden; TO decide is
whether or not this construction will
satisfy American public opinion II he
decides II will not then there will have

The suggestion in the United States
senate that this country enter into an
agreement with Mexico for the polio
ing of a neutral zone along the Dor
der will not meet with the approval
of careful observers because they real
ize the futility Of making an agree
ment with q country that has shown
no disposition whatsoever to fulhll
promises or respect agreements OF any
kind. y When the civilized nations Of
Europe look upon treaties as mere
scraps of paper and twist or entirely
disregard international law and agree
ments, there is no reason to believe
that the Mexican nation would even
make an effort to carry out any agree
ment to which they were . party. 1t
would simply be postponing the day
when the United States government
will have to protect IT'S own people
either by force Of arms or b. keeping
