GERMANY'S POSITION

March 26).-"Ii congress declares
that a state of war IS existing oe-

many. Germany will take the position
that she is not aware of the fact. She
will continue to act in the assump-

as she takes toward all neutrals,
none of whom dreams Of asserting
that a state of war exists.
"Rumors of proposed mediation be-
tween the United States and Germany
by some unnamed neutral come from
London, but nothing of this is known
here. Germany would not consider
alteration of her U-boat policy. On

What is the attitude of the people

upon him, headed by one of the min

them to approach Mr.. Blease in re-

WALL ST. ALARMED AT PLANS
FOR FINANCING WAR
New York, April a. - Wall street
believes SeC'y McAdoO should call
general conference Of experienced
bankers to devise ways and means
of financing war with Germany.
Plans for sale Of bonds, with no
remuneration for service, already are
being made. Wall street is thinking
of war, not in millions, but in billions
of dollars.
Wall street does not take kindly to
the presidents "pay-as-we-go" plan
of financing the war, and it is deadly
opposed to the plan for putting the
burden of financing the war upon the
rich by heavy taxes on corporation
profits, munitiOn making profits and
big individual incomes.
It is history that the very wealthy
grow weather. much more quickly
during war times, while the poor
grow poorer. Wall street does not
wish the burden of war taxation
shifted from the backs Of the poor
and the middle-class people who
have heretofore always carried it.
The big money street is flag-be-
decked with colors almost touching
across the street. This is considered
a manifestation Of patriotism, by
some it is considered a rejoicing at
great profits to come if war is de-
clared and the bankers can prevent
in some way the putting into effect
of the administrations plan to make
the rich and the war profiteers pay
the cost of war.
