Regrets the Move.

The words of hope which we had
decided upon for this space in the

fallen fiat before they were composed
and printed. Our hope was that the
powers in Washington would avoid

bury this hope. President has. after
consultation with his cabinet. seen
At to sever diplomatic relations with
Germany. Gerard and Bernstorff the
respective representatives in Berlin
and here, will leave their posts. The
friendship which reigned between the
two countries since the esta hlishment
of the republic has suddenly been shat
tered. No other part OF our popula-
ton will regret this step more than
the millions of citizens of German
blood, whose hearts have been filled
with grief through recent develop
ments. The severance of diplomatic
relations does not mean armed en-
tanglements of the two countries.
Possibly we may be spared this aggra-
walton of the situation. This Is a ray
OF hope, though a faint one. How
