Americans in Germany
Urged to Remain There

Berlin, Feb. 10 via London, Feb. a..
An appeal 70 Americans in Germany
not 20 become alarmed and 20 conduct
their businesses as usual is contained in
the weekly bulletin Of the Berlin Amer
lean Association Of Commerce and
Trade. II says:
Americans resident in Germany
should always bear in mind during the
present war that reports and informa-
ton reaching Germany must pass FOR
the greater part through cables and
c.nsorships of nations waging war on
Germany. We say, without the slight
est hesitation. that reports o. every
nature must be taken with q grain OF
salt. We cannot know definitely what
the situation ia, and certainly cannot
know the intentions Of those who are
al present at the head Of the govern
ment Of the United States.
AT the present time we cannot see
any reason why Americans should be-
come alarn1e ed or hysterical and neglect
or abandon their business. Establish
ments once closed and the personnel
dispersed will have difficulties in re-
opening and many years Of valuable la
Dor voul be lost.
NO matter how the situation may
develop we believe that Americans IN
Germany who conduct themselves
properly and circumspectly will have
nothing 20 fear and will in no way be
disturbed. The treaty of 1899 between
Prussia and the United States, as we'll
as subsequent treaties between the two
countries. guarantees full protection 20
the citizens OF the respective coun-
tries.'
The association is continuing It's &C
tyities a. usual and American firms
domiciled in Germany are also carrying
on their businesses. Only three or
four members of the American dentists
colony in Berlin, which is quite nu-
merous. have left Germany, and the
remaining Americans in the German
capital are apparently settling down to
their usual routine.
