WILSON AFFR0NT
 WORRIES BERLIN
Buckpassing Starts Over Em- bassy's Act-Fear Relations,
 Injured
By FERDINAND JAHM f9V leaesd WJre te Tho Aue- H eraiO


 BERLIN, Feb. 7.-Germany is in furry of anger, anxiety and controversy over the fact that the German embassy at Washington showed reluctance in paying tribute to the memory 2f ex- President Wilson.
 The government is so worried over the diplomatic blunder that Foreign Minister Stresemann personally ex- plained the incident to American Am ba assador Houghton Wednesday.
 The newspaper "Kruez Zeitung'' claims that the United States govern ment made representations regarding fine incident to Ambassador Wiedfeldt, German representative at Washington.
 Other newspapers ..are attacking Wiedfeldt, pointing out that flying the embassy flag at half mast was a token of respect for the feeling of the Ameri- can people, rather than sign of mourn ing for Wilson.
 The German people, meanwhile, are alarmed by the international faux pas, fearing that it may halt American acti- vities in feeding German children. The blunder has now resulted in a strug- gle between the German embassey in Washington and the foreign office here to dodge responsibility for the affair
 Officials have searched files, and found that nothing was done by the embassy in the way of tending con. dolences on the deaths of President Cleveland or President Roosevelt. When Roosevelt died, however, the United States had not yet resumed relations with Germany.
 When it became apparent that the flag incident would develop internal controversies, the government issued an official statement announcing 1t had instructed Wiedfeldt to offer nc official condolence and make no of ficial mourning representations, but to use his discretion in doing anything he wished in personally showing respect to the dead statesman.
 .Nationalists claim that this merely showed desire to avoid responsibility and accuses the government of injur' ing, Germany's relations with the United States.
