London, Feb. Totally unexpect-

inner circles of diplomacy and Of the
Allied leadership were not taken by
surprise Germany announcement
! of a new ruthless" submarine cam
pafgn has caused profound, sensa-
ton in Great Britain. Curiosity is

on the ground that Germany's action

The general opinion-that in its
practical effect upon shipping the

Elected in the steamship offices, where
passengers and freight for America
are being booked as usual, and no
changes in sailings are announced.
The recent naval conference here,
it is now believed, had at least as
much. to do With Germany's newest
move as with the announced objects
of the meeting, and this is one of the
indications that the Allies have not
been taken by surprise.
English Counter Measures
Ex-Premier Asquith yesterday, in a
speech to his constituents at Lady
bank, after affirming his belief in the
certainty Of ultimate victory for the
Entente, said that 1t is Impossible to
dispute the gravity Of the situation,
a
to counter the German thrust by
arming merchantmen, Fastening the
building of new ships and pooling the
allies shipping resources.
Mr.. Asquithl also said that although
he would not waste breath upon Ger
many's s.so-called overtures for
peace. the country is bound to give
respectful attention to the recent ad-
dress of President Wilson. But he
declared that, nevertheless, the Allies
cannot be content with ANYTHING less
than victory, although they never
have had the faintest desire to ami
hilate Germany.
Opinion here is that the very fact
that the United States protested
against the British blockade measures
against Germany, because the for
malities required by international law
were not complied with, compels the
United States to refuse to acknowl-
edge the legality Of Germans socalled

Admiralty Busy Day and Night
Sir Edward Carson, First Lord OF

new submarine campaign in lett4

eve are daily threatened with in
creasing acts Of barbarity on the high
seas by the enemy, who has long sub
stituted the practice Of pirates for
the laws of nations. I do not delude

you, about the dangers Of the Ger
man submarine campaign. These
ruthless, unhuman attacks upon the
peaceful shipping Of the world have
created for US and our allies prob
lem as difficult as it is grave. But
this, at least, I can say-the problem
is being grapp1ed with day and night

and our hourly anxieties only stir us
to greater unceasing efforts"

EDITORIAL COMMENT
ON SUBMARINE CRISIS
Hartford Times.

sGermanH's latest declaration is none
the less ominous because it was fore
Swallowed. A nation which has per-
sistently adhered to the principle that
necessity knows no law and that hui
man development must follow only
the dictates of might, which did not
hesitate to violate Belgium and to sink
the Lusitania, could be expected to
refrain from the ruthless policy now
ayowed only because Of inability in it's
accomplishment.
