German Ambassador Says Legal Ac-
ton Cannot Lie.

Washington, Feb. 24.--Forma. rep
Presentations were made to the State
Department yesterday by thu Ger
man Embassy against the proceed
inrs brought IN the Federal conr: al
Norfolk to return the captured Brit
ish liner ApLam to her owners.
in n note presented by Count Eon
Bernstorg, the German Ambassador,
it is contendei that many prece !entS
as well as the ierms of the Prussiar-
American treaty, provides that no
legal action can lie against the Az
pam, held by German crew as d
prize of war. nor against Lieut.. Berg,
her commander. 1t is also contended
that inasmuch as Lieut.. Berg. has
extraterritorial rights. no legal ac-
ton can lie against him.
The note suggests that when the
case comes up in court March 2 :Eo
S!ahe Department inform the coGrs
Of The terms of the Treaty.

That was is possibility if the Presi-
dents position shall remain unehang-
ed was not denied at the conference.
With utmost concern the members
in the conference discussed the pos
sibilities of an arbitrary attitude re-
garding the use by Americans OF
armed merchantmen. They were
given to understand that the presi-
dent informed Senator Stone and
Kern and Congressman Flood al the
conference Monday hight that the
administration would not yield one
whit in its insistence upon the right
of Americans to use such ships.
They were also given to under
stand that the administration is pre-
pared to go to any extent-ever TO
war-for this principle:
That the administration admits
that if American lives are lost under
the renewed submarine warfare of
Germany it means the severance of
diplomatic relations with that ma
ton.
Members of the House see in the
severance of diplomatic relations nc
other result than war.

FIRST REPORT ON
The FEE SYSTEM
Commission Separates As
sessments Paid From
State Treasury
TO GIVE BILL A TRIAL
TO GIVE BILL A TRIAL
Suggests Increase in Maximum AL
lowancc to Examiners OF Records
From $2,5O0 to $4,000

Richmond, Feb. 24.-The commits.
sion composed of Governor Stuart
First Auditor c.. Lee Moore, and
State Accountant w. F. Smith, APP
pointed by the last General Assembly
to investigate the fee system with re-
gard to a number of civil Offices, has
made its report to the Senate and
House of Delegates, and the report
has been ordered printed.
A number of interesting recommen-
dations are made in the report, IN
cluding the changing of the fee basis
in some localities and the raising Of
maximum fees in others, with the
further recommendation that where
eXcesses are found to occur, the mat
ter be corrected.
The commission reported that is
was unable to make full and COM
pleue report owing to the facts that
the sheriffs, clerks of courts, treasur-
ers, commissioners of revenue, cN-
aminers of records, city scrgcants and
high constables were not required to
file their reports until January - Of
this year.
After surveying the field in full,
however, the committee stated that 4
few recommendations appear applica-
Bile at this time, and SHOULD be adopt
ed by thc General Assembly 40" IL
session. The commission found that
most of the Offices were economically
administered. The fact was mention
ed that the act iself, under which the
commission is working, makes provi-
sion for an equal division Of excessive
fees to the State and to the commit
nity where the eXcesses occur
Three recommendations are made
by the commission. rs follows:
First: That high constablcs should
be taken out of the provision and al
low the law-making body of the sew.
eral communities to decide whsther
or not they shall be on Il fee basis
or receive salaries. This recommends
ton was made, the commission stat
ed, because the high constables collect
their fees from litigants, while, If
salaried. the entire community.
great per cent of whom are never in
the courts, would have to help pay the
salaries.
Second: The act should be amend
ed so as to establish basis of net
compensation relatively fair for Of
GERS in cities of oser 100000 popu-
lation.
Third: Owing to the large aSount
of work yet to be done by the eNam-
iners of records, the maximum allow
cd should be changed from $500 to
$4,000, after deducting such expenses
as may be allowed by the State Ad-
visory Board.
