Some tenants have not made reports to the city clerk because they sare fearful they will be 6ispossessed.

vON BERNSTORFF
 INFORMS BERLIN OF U. s. POSITION
German Envoy Tells Gov ernment That Note Means
 What It Says

Washington, April 2O-Count vor Bernstorff, the German Ambassador, sent to Berlin last night long des- patch, interpreting the situation in Washington and making certain rec concentrations. He is understood to have advised his government that he believed the United States meant just what it said in it's submarine note and that something would have to be done quickly if friendly relations were to continue.
 The Ambassador himself, having read the address of the President, and the note, said:
 tEI can make no comment either upon the address or upon the com n1unication which has been sent to my government
 He was authoritative1y described. however, as having advised the Berlin foreign office in the message sent last night that he believed at least some such declaration as that made regard ing the conduct of submarine warfare in the Mediterranean Sea should be issued immediately to cover all sub marine operations.
 The Mediterranean declaration was handed to Secretary Lansing on Jan. T. It contained assurances, much broader in their scope than those given to cover the activities of submarines in the war zone around the British 1SIeSs where Germany has contended from the first that she was engaged in a campaign of retaliation for the British blockade.
 The assurances were to the effect that. only a cruiser warfare would be conducted against enemy merchant shipping, and that non-combatant ships of every character, freight as well as passenger would re- ceive proper warning and have safety for their passengers and crews The assurances, which have been given for the war zone around the British Isles, covered only liners
 The declaration of Jan.k7 also prom ised that German submarine com rnAners who failed to obey the assur- ances given would be punished and that reparation would be made for death or Injury to American citizens. German commanders operating in the Mediterranean, it was stated in the declaration, which was issued after fhe steamship Persia had gone down, had particular instructions to exclude such measures of reprisa1 as were ap- piled in the war zone around the British Isles.
 It is expected that Count von Bern

storff will confer with Secretary Ian sing today. The Secretary informed him that he was ready to discuss the matter at his convenience. Since the inception of the present situation Count von Bernstorff has made two attempts to discuss the situation with the Secretary. On each occasion he was informed, however, that he would have an opportunity later.
 While the Ambassador appeared more perturbed than at any time since the beginning of the submarine con- troversy, he was said to feel that his government would go to every poss1- ble length to prevent the severance or diplomatic relations.
 Persons in close touch with affairs at the. embassy quoted him as saying:
 ''I believe that some way will be found satisfactorily to meet the posi- tion of the United States"

news from the war zone that the
high tide of hate has commenced to

it is:

believe they see in the wartime spirit of the public the commencement of unprecedented developments.
 The Russian Duma is composed of Princes and Peasants, millowners and workmen, college professors and farmers, Jews, Gentiles, Poles, Ar menians, Cossacks, Orthodox priests and free thinkers, so mixed a body with such varied interests that people have said it never could do valuable vorh because it never could agree. Here is what happened in the Duma when the war broke out;
 On August s, a week after hostili- ties began, the two houses met at the Winter Palace of the Czar. The Elm peror made a short speech, saying
 "l am persuaded that all or you will be in your place to assist me to support the test and that all begin ming with myself, will do their duty Great is the God of the Russian Faith erlaud."
 A great cheer went up from the Duma. One by one parry leaders came forward and pledged themselves work for the common good Even Purisbkjyich, the implacablc leader of the antj-semitcs, abandoned his prin- cjplcs. Today the Dun,a places the amy's interests first
