London. June 16.-The Germans
have tried another note. Inasmuch
as all the allied press, without excep-
lion. is agreed in describing it as a
sgreat improvement over the first, 1t
is hardly worth while taking UP
space to demonstrate how the essen
tials of this more favored document
were contained in it's reprobated pred
ecessor. Psychologically it is a de.
cided advance on the first note. 1t is
crisp and condensed and does not in
dulge in irritating processes OF argu'
ment. You should never attempt to
argue with an angry man who is
brandishing a bludgeon. The second
German note avoids this provocation-

ties standing alone will not entice an
investor to risk his money on Ger

at Germany as a whole, and not IN
parts. He will want to know what is

Hence the propositions that really
matter in the German note are not
those which give a schedule of guar
antee, but those which bear on the

this question the note does not in
crease the sum which the first note
estimated as the limit of German ca
pacty. But it reaffirms the readiness
