GERMAN REPLY
INFORMS U. S..
U-BOhT ORDERS
Note Finished. but Date of De-
livery Uncertain.
Kaiser's Attitude Stated in
Clear, Precise Terms.
PRESIDENT WILSON UNMOVED
Not Inclined to Quibble Over
Ultimatum.
Anxious to Know What New
U-BOat Rules Are.
PRESIDENT WILSON UNMOvED

Berlin, May 3.-The draft of the
German reply to the American note
has been finished. The reply is sub
ject to minor alterations which may
result from interchanges of views be-
tween Berlin and general headquar-
ters.
The Associated Press is permitted to
make these statements although the
censorship on dispatches tending to re-
veal the tenor of the German reply is
still effective. The date of delivery of
the answer has not been fixed
The attitude of Germany will be
stated in clear and precise terms The
note will leave no room for doubt
concerning the exact position assumed
by Germany, which will communicate
the definite nature CT instructions that
will be given to submarine comman-
ders and other data on which Wash
ington itself can judge the situation.
First Indication of Plan.
Washington, May 3.-The an
nouncement from Berlin that new and
definite instructions are to be given
to German submarine commanders, is
the first positive indication of how
Germany will attempt to meet Presi-
dent Wilson's final demand that she
declare and effect an abandonment of
the present method Of submarine war
fare.
Whether the new instructions will
meet the terms of the last American
note and thus prevent a break in dip
lOmatic relations can only be deter
mined by close and careful examina-
ton.
President Wilson is represented by
those closest about him as unshaken in
his determination that the issue is not
negotiable, that a settlement cannot
be delayed by discussion of side issues
such as the British blockade and re-
taliatory measures, and that the con-
troversy between the countries can
proceed further in diplomacy only if
Germany effectually stops destruction
of ships without warning and takes
measures to bring her submarine op-
erations within the confines of inter
national law
Wilson VIII Demand Proof
With declaration that such orders
have been given and evidence that
they will be carried out in good faith
the president is willing to discuss the
conduct of submarine warfare but only
upon that basis. Until this morning
Germany's delay in making reply and
the absence of any definite reports
from Ambassador Gerard have led
American officials to fear that the
Berlin foreign office was planning to
send an answer which the United
States could not consider other than
1nconciuSive and therefore unsatisfac-
tory.
The news that new instructions to
submarine commanders will be an
nounced serve to encourage hope of a

DR. Walker admitted that he had
been called into cases, the same as all
other physicians with extended prac-
tices. where there was evidence of an
operation. Yet, he did not feel that
he was properly protecting the pa
tient by reporting the same to auth
critics and there is no law, the doctor
says, which compels physician to re-
port such cases. 1t would ruin the pa
tient, he declared.
In nine cases out of ten the patient
wouldn't give out the name of the doc
tor anyway" said DIR. Walker. Il am
like every member of the society anx-
ious to do anything in the world to rid
the profession of such men but we
are hardly protecting our patients
properly by reporting their condition

criticism of President Wilson
for providing wine for guests at
banquets at the White House was
expressed in a resolution submit
ted to the Methodist general con-
ference today by the Rev. James
Anderson of Oregon. Mo.
The resolution was coldly re-

was referred to the committee on
temperance Although the reso-
luton was offered by Dr. Ander-
son as an Individual, the entire
Missouri delegation supported the
action.
The resolution in part follows:
Whereas, 1t has been reported
through the public press that our
president, the Hon. Woodrow
Wilson, has restored the use of
intoxicating liquors on state oc-
casions in White House functions;
Therefore, be it resolved by
the general conference of the

we hereby express to the Hon
Woodrow Wilson, president of the
United States, our keen disap-
pointment and regard for same
action, especially at a time when
the rulers of other nations have
taken such advanced position
with reference to Intoxicating
liquors and when there is such
widespread growing sentiment in
our land in favor of total abstin-
nence from all alcoholic bever-
ages.
We, the delegated representa-
tives of more than four million
members of the Methodist Epis-
copal church hereby appeal to the

control, thereby setting a worthy
example and keeping pace with
