Almost Overnight EngIand's

LONDON, March s.-Almost over

American situation has undergone a
radical change. The belief is growing
here that relations between the two
countries are growing more tense. and
the possibilities OF war are being more
seriously considered.

sources In the last twenty-four hours
declare the feeling OF bitterness toward
America In Germany Is increasing
Whether this Is due to the action OF
congress in unfolding the President

A few requests for insurance against
war between Germany and the United
States were made today, but the rates
suggested by the applicants were con-
sldered too low by the Lloyd's brokers.

this view OF the situation today in
