Private advices from Germany tell of
growing dissatisfaction among the

suits of the ruthless submarine cam
paign and the absence of any indica-
tions that it has brought the desired
peace near to hand.
During their long campaign for the
unrestricted use of submarines the ad-
vocates of this measure made very
definite promises of immediate results.
Two or three months was the phrase
used everywhere in street and news

it would take to bring England to her
knees. ready for peace. Even though
the official propaganda has since de-
clared the government bound itself to
no particular time to produce results.

tanned in two or three months has re-
manned - the minds of the people.

Refused to Commit Self.

1t is a matter of knowledge to the
correspondent that at least one member
of the German government refused to
commit himself to any definite time
limit for bringing Great Britain into a
frame of mind to discuss peace. In the
correspondents last formal conversa-
ton with DR.. Alfred Zimmerman. head
fore news of the rupture of relations
with the United States was received in
Berlin, the minister, who was on tepter
hooks TO know what the Uhited States
would do, declared impulsive1y:
''If the United States will only keep
hands off and let US alone two or three
months will be enough"
Then, noticing the correspondent
prick up his ears at this foreign Office
use of the stock phrase of the ruth
lessness advocates. he quickly amended
his estimate. Say six months. he said.
and then reading further query in the
correspondents eyes, said:-

DR.. Zimmerman then went on with
the argument that England and the en-
tente would quickly be made amenable

lations or declaring war in consequence
of the proclamation of the unrestricted
submarine campaign.
