Lansing's first statement yesterday
morning indicated the United States
plainly was not acting for Germany
in making its peace suggestions.
Teutonic diplomats, somewhat start
led at the first Lansing statement, felt
father relieved at the supplementary
statement of the afternoon.
It would be-in such an event, the ad
ministration believes, that the real
danger will confront the United states.
It as of such an event that the presi
dent spoke, it is known, when he warn
ed as long ago as last February when
touring the country on behalf of na
tional defense, 'sparks t'roniw that great
Conflagration abroad may light at any
time i pon our own shores."
Dispatches outlining the British at
titude toward President Wilson's note,
as indicated by the newspapers of that
country, were read carefully by govern
ment officials today.
In administration circles particularly,
there was considerable satisfaction
that the London press comment was not
"so vigoioVsly opposed to the presi
dent's overtures," as had been antici
pated.
There lit no question but the president
is looking for public Opinion iu the bel
ligerent countries, to assist him and he
believes that after the note has n chance
to "soak in" there will be marked
changes in attitude by the allied press
and public.

Bethlehem Steel company said in ad

With a capacity of one million rounds
