German Editor Suggests
Britain's Acts May Force
Change in Policy.
SEES GRAVE PERIL IN
NEUTRAL HOSTILITY
Hint Expressed That Submarine
Strength Has Been Greatly
Improved.

Berlin. July 18.-The active cam
paign for the resumption OF suoma-
rine warfare in it's previous form has
assumed new importance, from an arti-
Gle to-day by Eugen Zimmerman, gen
eral director OF the "Lokal Anzeiger,
whose views, as past events nave
shown, usually reflect the opinions
held in governmental circles.
Referring 10 the reasons which
Great Britain gave for abandoning the
Declaration OF London, Herr thinner
man contemplates the possibility that
Great Britain will compel smaller
neutral states to adopt an unfriendiy'
perhaps a hostile, attitude toward the
Central Powers, or even TO close their
frontiers completely against them. lie
then cites his own comment on Ger
many's acceptance Of the American de-
mands in regard TO submarine warfare,
indicating that circumstances might
arise later which would make it i'm
possible to adhere TO the restrictions
on the activity of these craft.
Herr Zimmerman goes on to say that
the political reasons which snaped
Germany's policy NJ the time included
the wish 10 preserve the good Will OF
neutrsls, and adds:
"But if Great Britain succeeds in
making neutrals passively or actively
hostile to us, one important reason for
Germany's decision at that time would
ease TO exist. IL makes no differene
whether neutrals yield TO British or
ders through sympathy or through
fear.
Even America should comprehend
and appreciate the situation as it
would be changed for the Central
Powers and the conclusions they, OF
necessity, would draw therefrom. We
can only strike balance again Of all
political and military factors and
choose what is most useful for Ger
many, what best secures German vic
tory"
Herr Zimmerman then intimates in
a ve;led manner, being unable to dis
cuss this phase more freely, that the
submarine power Of Germany has un-
dergone a favorable change since
spring, evidently meaning that either
their numbers or their efficiency has
been increased considerably. He con-
cudes his article with the assertion
that all signs indicate that a new de-
cision on the submarine question will
be necessary very soon.
