London, Sept. 7.-(By maiD-The
commander Of German submarine

fore the war.
Sponsors for this statement are mem
bers Of British expeditionary force
whose boat was torpedoed a few weeks
ago in the Bay of Biscay and who wero
saved mainly through the courtesy Of
this alleged German American.
Their story is In marked contrast
to that told by the survivors of the
Belgian Prince. Though In uniform,
they were helped into boats by the
submarines. When the captain learned
that some were Americans and Ca
nadians he showed great interest.
I'm an American, in a way" he
said. 81 used to live in Boston and was
naturalized there"

ship builders. The men who build the
ships in Great Britain regard them
selves. and rightly. as performing
equal service with the men who face
death in the trenches. I believe that
the time will come when the workers
in the shipyards and factories - the
men in the mines and mercantile SAIL
ors-will also get the crosses, medals
and ribbons that are now given to the
soldiers and naval men. Whenever you
set eyes on one of your fine young
soldiers, send this thought coursing
through your brain, all his sacrifice
will be in vain If you cannot give him
the food, the arms and the housing he
will require in France, every ounce of
which-has to be transported across the

Let me urge and urge you again
that the increased sinking Of the
French ships are significant and what
Is aimed at by the Germans is the ruin
of your effort to supply your own men
with everything that they need in

REITERATES PLEDGE
JAPAN WILL KEEP
OPEN DOOR IN CHINA

New York, Oct. 2.-Viscount Ishii
head Of the Japanese high commission,
was on record today as reiterating his
pledge that Japan would maintain an
open door In China, protect China
against aggression and would not it
self violate that nations territorial
rights.
Speaking to a gathering of editors
and city officials last night, he made
these statements, but declared Japan's
attitude should not be construed as a
Monroe doctrine In Asia. as several
New York papers styled it.
Il want to make it clear to you" he
said, that the application of the term
Monroe doctrine to this policy and
principle, voluntarily enunciated and
pledged by me, is Inaccurate. There
lis this fundamental difference between
the Monroe doctrine of the United
States as to Central and South America
and the enunciation of Japans atti-
,tude toward China. In the first there
is on the part Of the United States no
engagement or promise, while In the
other, japan voluntarily announces
that Japan will herself engage not to
violate the political or territorial in
A>srity of her neighbor.

In two separate statements today.
The greatest significance was at
tached to an editorial in the Observa-

The editorial declared the holy see
was in agreement with the Socialists
Of Italy and elsewhere insofar as they
were seeking to safeguard democratic
liberty and protect constitutional
rights by legal means"
RADICAL STEP SEEN.
Those who professed to see the pope
taking the radical step of sympathiz-

nection with a bitter editorial attack
in the newspaper Corriere D'Italia on
German Foreign Secretary Kuehlmann.
Through these two editorials he held
the vatican had contrived diplomatic
hint to Germany as well as bit Of
counsel to the German people and es-
pecially the German Catholics.
Another direct intimation of the vat
leans position on development Of the
peoples rule was in the pope's words
of greeting to new Russian diplomat
accredited to the holy see.
SYMPATHY WITH DEMOCRACY.
Interviewed by the United Press to-
day. this Russian flatly denied that the
pope favored a reactionary Russia. He
said his holiness expressed personal
sympathy with Russia's democracy. re-
garding ~the revolutionary movement
as political and social evolution,

this diplomat asserted that peace Is
the exclusive prerogative Of parlia-
