German View of America's Note is
• Very Angry One
Berlin, July 27-Tbe American note
was published In the Sunday news -
ostlers. Tbe Tages Zeitung declares
that the contents and ,wording far ex-
ceed the most unfavorable anticipa-
tions. Count lteventlow writes: "The
note uses languag. which will find no
response with the overwhelming ma-
jority of the German nation, since It
means domineering demand. Tbe nuts
breathes haterul disregard of the Ger-
man Government's standpoint." The
Vossicbe Zeitung says: "The re:usal to
accept Germanys proposal to protect
American passengers .howa an abso-
lute lack of readiness to understand
the German standpoint. The pr..•
clple that belligerent States must pro
tect neutrals is untenable, as 1t would
mean abdicating to neutral States."
The T.. eblatt nays: "The United
States must realise that to change our
submarine warfare 1s out of the quer
tion." The Rnersen Zettung says 1t
regrets that it is compelled to say
the note is a very unsatisfactory one.
