The American government knows

to respect the freedom of the SEAS
The English government, however, in
sists upon continuing it's war of starva-

military powers of it's opponents, but
compels women and children, the sick
and the aged, to suffer for their coun-

British tyranny mercilessly increases
the sufferings of the world, Indifferent

The Imperial government could not
justify it's own conscience, before the
German people and before history the
neglect of any means destined to bring
about the end of the war. Like the

at it's disposal.
Sincerely trusting that the people
and government of the United States
will understand the motives for this

There was every indication in Off

that it had not and some others who
gave intimations of belief that it

Challenge Is Expected.
From under the curtain of official
silence, drawn closely over every
move, came various indications as in

was undisputed the government would
not permit Germany's announcement
to stand without challenge. But
whether President Wilson's answer

The usual cabinet meeting will be
held when for the first time all the
the members may know definitely of
the Presidents attitude.
It was stated the President had
made no arrangements for going be-

possible he might decide to adopt
this step at any time.
