Tor Germany to avoid a severance Of
diplomatic relations.
Secretary Lansing continued work
to-day on the statement OF the
American case which will be forward
ed to Berlin and thus dispelled inti-
nations that it might already have
been started on its way. Mr. Lansing
compared the atfidavits on the attack
on the Sussex which arrived here last
night with information already be-
fore the department.
The President kept in touch with
Secretary Lansing during the day and
was informed of the contents of the
afiidavits received on the st. Paul
The new note was approved by the
Cabinet and will he shown to the

mittee probably on Monday. 1t will
contain siNty-tive specific indictments
of Germany's illegal submarine war
fare-offences which have occurred
since the sinking of the Lusitania.
Officials say that President Wilson
realizes that the end of the diplomatic
rope has been reached. He is repre-
sented as believing that IN taking his
present stand he is burning his bridges
behind him and leaving no alternative
but a diplomatic break. with its
threatened consequences in case Ger

reason, II was explained, why the
President desires that the foreign af

While the committee will tentatively
outline its whole program at Fridays

will be one of the chief topics under

money can be raised for the purpose
is a serious question and it is expected
that the feasibility of asking councils
assistance in the matter will be dis

AT any rate the Chamber of Com

be urged to cooperate in solving the
problem. and If it be found that the

quite likely that the Chamber of Com
