BASEL. Oct 2l.--Advices from Berlin
show that II was really on account OF
difficulties arising at the last moment
that the despatch OF the German reply
to President Wilson was delayed. The
reply was submitted first to committee
of the Federal Council, then to a meet

except the Poles was present.
A discussion lasting an hour followed
the reading Of the text by Friedrich Won

Cabinet met again in the evening to re-
wise the text.
German military experts, especially
Gen. Ludendorff and Admiral Won Scheer,
chief OF the Admiralty Staff, took Il
large part in the deliberations. They
argued that the German military situa-

WILSON NOTES

German People Deceived as to

LONDON. Oct. 2l.--The Times says ed
itorially that the German Government
deliberately deceived the German people
with reference to President Wilson'S re-
plies to the German notes and that the
mass OF the people In Germany as a
result have not yet a correct conception
OF President Wilson's position.
THE second German note TO President
Wilson," says the Times, said that Ger
many accepted the Presidents thesis
satze.' whereas the President had asked
II Germany accepted his terms in the
sense he meant.
ut can be stated definitely that the
use of the words Thesis satze' was
subterfugc definitely intended to avoid
conveying the idea that the terms had
been accepted in the sense President
Wilson meant. This Is proved by the
fact that the German translation of the
first American reply contains not the
word 'satze' but the word 'bedingungen,'
which, accurately translated means
: 'termS-in the sense of conditions Thus
Germany, while clearly understanding
the Presidents question, deliberately
gave Il crooked answer.
When one turns to German newsra-
pers OF October 13, ii and Is IL IL found
that nobody i'm GERMANY imagines Ger
many has accepted the terms In the
sense meant by President Wilson. The
German Governments wording of the
correspondence was taken by everybody
to mean only acceptance as the basis OF
negotiations. and the whole German
press continued gayly to continue its
asseverations that Germany would not
surrender either Alsace-Lorraine or Rus
sian Poland.
Even the liberal Berliner TdDcbIatt
| speaks throughout OF conciliation being
the guiding principle in the discussions
between the German Government and
| President Wilson, and says the whole
German concession consists OF admitting
! that Alsace-LoTraine and Poland arc in

there can he no harm in discussing these
| questions and broadly hints that there
Is abundance of means SO that II II

on manipulated plebiscite to keep Al
sace-Lorraine.
THE whole German press, far from
| thinking in terms Of surrender is basing
calculations on trapping the Allies into

Wayne B. Wheeler Asserts Owners

An opportunity to do away with Ger
man-owned breweries in the United
States is seen by Wayne b. Wheeler
attorney and general counsel for the
Anti-Saloon League of America, in the
decision of the government to auction
off German property in the United
States.
In addressing a community meeting
held under the auspices of the Anthony
League. at goth street and Columbia
road last night, Mr.. Wheeler made the
charge that money made by German
brcweries in this country has been
SUI porting organizations enga ged in
spreading sedition.
More power to Mr. Palmer in seiz-
ing alien enemy property" he said. "As
this goes on the pro-German breweries
in this country which furnish funds to
the German Alliance to carry on their
disloyal propa ganda should be inves-
tigated. Breweries here that furnish
dividends or donations TO our enemy.
or TO those who aid our enemy. should be
seized as enemy property. Why pass a
trading with the enemy act and allow
the pro- German brewers, who are the
financial backbone of seditious German
ism here to go scot free?
'tYhe testimony before the judiciary
committee of the Senate investigating
the German american Alliance is as

German brewers for further existence

PASS CONSULAR BILL
FOLLOWING LIVELY TILT

The Senate passed the diplomatic and
consular appropriation bill Yesterday
afternoon after restoring to that meas
ure an item of $500 for the salary and
expenses of David Lubin. American di-
rector of the international Institute of
Agriculture in Rome. The item was
the subject of sharp tilt between
Senator Williams of Mississippi and
Senator Johnson of California.
Minimizing Mr.. Lubin's work as di-
rector Of the institute, Senator Will
liams declared he was not qualified,
periodically or otherwise for the
task. Senator Johnson sharply retorted
that the Mississippi senator had foul
ly abused Mr.. Lubin and that the pro-
posed elimination of the appropriation
was petty and small"
House appropriations for the Mexi-
can boundary survey and also for al
lowances to consular officers to meet
increased living costs were reduced
by the Senate. Senator Smoot of Utah,
republican, said he thought the boun-
dairy commission was doing little work
and should be abolished, and the shift
ing of the Rio Grande river and Mexi-
can banditry had unsettled conditions.
