lasts-ram 11 the verdict of President
Wilson Secretary Lansing’ and of the
great majority of editors Wilt.
German communication ignores the
carefully prepared and forceful nrgu~
meats of President Wilson’s note and
submits a series of contentions more
suitable for a newspaper article than
for a set-bus diplomatic controversy.
regarding the German note. the
public appears to be mystified regard-
ing the moon for its. unsatisfactory
character. Tiny cannot understand
why Germany has not taken the Uni-
ted States more «measly. why that
government did not take up and at-
tempt to answer the vurlOus conten-
tions o: the u. 8. There are however.
many students of hitornattonnl slain.
influding certain foreign diplomats
stationed in Washington. who are
convinced that an examination of the
Administration‘s Mexican policy—or
lack of policy—affords a complete ex-
planation of the attitude of the Ger-
man Foreign Oflice. especially when
taken in‘connectiou with the extraor-
dinarily forcoful~not to say indilt1
erect—language of President Wilson’s
note to Germany of February 19th, in
which, replying tO‘ Germany's an-
nouncemeat of her establishment of
the war zone. Mr. Wilson wrote that
if Germany’ 2 naval authorities in-
fringed the rights of American citi-
zens, ‘the United states would be con
strained to hold the imperial German

warnings were communicated to. the
‘ various belcon revolutionary load-
ers. Over and over again they were
warned that it they caused injury to
American lives or prOperty they would
be held to "a strict accountability."
The only interpretation which could
possibly be pieced on the President's
words was that if themexicans’took
American lives or robbew‘them of
.théir property it would mean hostili~
ties. that the United States would em—
‘ ploy all the force necessary to effect
reprisals. Over and over again the
Mexican leaders look the lives and
confiscated or destroyed the properi‘
of Americans, but they were not held
to accobntublllu, strict or otherwise.
When these violations became so
flagrant and so serious that action be-
came imperative. the Americans were
‘ oflcialiy warned by this Government
to. abandon their property and flee
from Mexico. As a result. the U. S.
became the laughing-stock of Mexico:
American soldiers and sailors, 1111111111
and consular agents were pentatoni-
