The German Conditions,

What appeared upon the first incom-
p1ete reports to be a denial by Berlin
| that overtures were made through the
Swiss minister here to the American
of diplomatic relations to the end of
avoiding war. proves upon full state
ment OF the matter to he merely an ex-
PLANTATION of the circumstances in which
the tender was made The initiative, it
is now declared, came from this end,
through the Swiss minister, represent
ing Germany temporarily at this CAPT
tai He proposed to mediate between
Germany and the United States about
the declaration Of the prohibited sea
area, in order that tho danger of war
might be reduced. He was instructed
by Berlin shat Germany, as before, was
ready to negotiate with America" but
only in case the commerce barrier
against the entente remained untouched.
Tie Berlin explanation goes further
iitu say . hAdt LdlSut Dcttei ldNt pteu
expressed specifically in the instructions
to Minister Ritter and by him stated to
the United States, that such negotia-
tons could be entered into only on the
condition first that diplomatic relations
be restored and second that the object
of the negotiations could only be GER
tain concessions respecting American
passenger ships. of course, such con
ditions could not possibly be accepted
by the United States. In the first place
the resumption of diplomatic relations
would have been impossible as long as
the pledge of May remained violated
or Withdrawn. The only condition upon
which relations could have been resumed
would be the withdrawal of the procla-
nation Of unrestricted submarine war
fare
As it was, the United States rejected
the proposal peremptorily and could
have done so no more speedily or en-
phatically if the full conditions stated
and implied by Germany had been un-
derstood. 1t is Of no moment that the
suggestion as it reached the State De-
partment was not as explicit as Berlin
perhaps intended, and no criticism is
to be attached to the Swiss minister
for his part in the procedure. It would,
however. be interesting and perhaps i'm
portant to know the genesis of the mi
tiatiye taken at this end. Inasmuch as
the proposal was SO speedily rejected
this is chiefly an item of historical
| rather than present diplomatic contro-
versy.

Protection for the Canal.

| Discussion continues as to the made
| quacy of the protection of the Panama
canal The subject could not be too
, thoroughly considered, or the steps. If
| any are necessary, taken too promptly
| to correct the deficiency. The canal and
the zone we control on the isthmus are
among this country's very valuable as
sets.
j Even If the war were to end tomor-
row, adequate and up-to-date protection
of the canal would be necessity. The
war spirit will not end with the present
war, but will live, and be liable to flare
up at any time. The canal will remain,
and increase in every sort of value as
time passes.
We are not so rich as to belttle the
half billion of dollars we have invested
in the waterway. But, as matter of
fact, that represents but small part
Of the appraisement of the enterprise
from the American point of view. Our
prestige as nation is in a measure at
stake in its control and operation. 1t is
an American canal. for the benefit of
the world. Hence, if we should find our
selves unable to defend it and be forced
to surrender it, the loss in national hui
initiation would top all other losses.
Nor will the necessity for defense be
less after we have provided ourselves,
as so many hope we may, with ''an i'm
comparable navy" Even when our ships
in the Pacific are as numerous as our
ships in the Atlantic, and those in both
oceans equal to our obligations to our
selves on the water, the canal will be
source of great strength to US in our
larger purposes respecting sea power.
Nor is the naval problem all, much as
that is. The world will hope-certainly
the American people will-for q long
peace after present hostilities have been
brought to close. The period will be
propitious for larger merchant marines
than have ever before existed. Our pur-
pose is to build one of the biggest in
the business. If the national desire is
realized, the Stars and Stripes will float
over many fine merchant ships, and be
seen in all waters where the trader is
visitor. And as we shall have much
competition, the cut across the isthmus
will in some cases serve us great end.
The war has taught everybody much,
both as to attack and defense on sea
and land; and We should apply the OBJ
servations we have made to our inter
ests as speedily and fully as possible.

innocent people, the scornful repudia-
ton Of treaties as scraps Of paper"
caused angry reactions in the American
mind. Multitudes Of the people Of this
country who would have been strictly
neutral, in the fullest sense, had Bel
GUMS neutrality been respected, as was
that of Holland, became bitter partisans
Of the allies on this score alone. And
the feeling has not diminished. Rather
has it increased in intensity with the
deportations of Belgian people and
other cruelties practieed in the occupied
territory by Germany. The present &C
ton of the Berlin government, which
has compelled the closure of one Of the
most remarkable charities ever con-
Quoted, will intensity this feeling.
