the situation in a dignified and worthy manner. Some of the newspapers in- cluding the Tageblatt, the Bourse GaZ- cite and even the Tages Zeitung con- slider the possibility of Germany at tempting to meet the American de- mands but most of the writers evi- dentiy consider this difficult.
 The Tages Zeitung comments on the note in tone of expectancy declar- ing that the present document is con- l sistert sequence to the submarine note of February 1915. The American gov l ernment, it says, from the outset re- 1 sarded a German victory as against i American interest, hence it was some thing to be combatted. Opposition to the ! submarine campaign, it declares. botf l! in Washington and London is based or | the realization that a relentlessly con ! 0ucted campaign is one of the mos dangerous and successful weapons against Great Britain.

 The Kreuz Zeitung considers the note in contents and manner proof of new testimony of a one-sided and par tisan handling of the submarine ques- ton, which we have continually eX- perienced from the AmFican govern ment since the beginning of the sub marine campaign" The newspaper de-
 clares that it IS it's opinion that there
 is no doubt that Germany's attitude
 toward the notes shows that Washing tor wants more than settlement of the Sussex case.
 Each concession it says, "only postpones the breach and since Ger many neither can nor will fulfill the general demands of America, it can only be hoped that the present devel-
 opments will give Germany a really unlimited freedom of action in the sub- ! marine warfare"
