quiry was communicated by the Asso-
ciated Press Saturday night to VII.
liam G. McAdoo, secretary of the
treasury just before he delivered a
Liberty Loan address at crowded
mass meeting. Mr.. McAdoo told the
audience the text of the reply and
added
What this government demands,
based on President Wilson's messages
and speeches. is unconditional sur.
render, and If the text of this reply is
authentic II means just that"
Before telling the audience about
the German note, Mr.. McAdoo said Of
the first German note week ago.
Germany didn't send its note to
anyone except the United States.
Why? Because the President of the
United States has formulated the prin.
ciples Of permanent peace.
Germany knows that when she ac-
cepts the President5s conditions am
not talking terms. but conditions, prin.
ciples-when she is off the soil Of ev.
