LONDON GOMMENT ON BRYAN'S AGT Political Event of Unmistakable Importance, Says Gazette London, June 9, 12:23 p. m.—The Pall Mall Gazette in its issue today characterizes the resignation of Sec- retary Bryan as a political event of unmistakable importance. Continuing the newspaper, says: “It does not appear that any of Mr. Bryan's colleagues share the scruples which induced him to give up office and we assume that his se- cession will not impart any delay to the development of the attitude of America toward Germany.. Record Well Known. “Mr. Bryan's record as an advocate of arbitration and international friendship is well known and what- éver thé outcame of the situation may he, no criticism of a personal char- acter can fall on the step Mr. Bryan has taken. At the same time it is obvious that if American influence is to have any effect upon Germany's method of warfare the United States must convince Berlin that the preser- vation of peace, however cherished, is not the supreme and overruling con- sideration. “There are other things which must lie fear the heart of América’s BUSY HONTH 1N representatives if they are to hold the respect of foreign nations and of their own. There is the protection of Ameriean citizens in the rights of travel which are conferred upon them by the rules of war and there is, in \certain eventualities, the part which may devolve upon America in the de- fense of that civilization which she shares with the rest of humanity. Certain Sacrifices Impossible. “We may take it that the president, whose devotion to honorable peace no one can doubt, has felt it necessary to show in his second note that there are certain sacrifices which he can- not make for the sake of friendly re- lations with Berlin. He has allowed it to be seen that, much averse as the American people are to hostilities, they will not be flouted interminably by Prussian high-handedness or ap- peased by the very amateurish sophis- tries purveyed to them by the diplo- matists of Emperor William. “The position of President Wilson will not in any way be weakened by the loess of one who has been his chief officia] supporter. In accept- ing Mr. Bryan's resignation and per- sisting in the course which has brought it about, the president has given the last blow to the legend that he himself was lacking in decisive ‘THE HEALTH DEPT.

In taking his stand upon the platform of ‘strict account- ability’ at the cost of a rupture, in his most intimate circle, he has given conclusive proof that his prolonged self-restraint was moderation of strength, and not timidity. He will find himself more firmly planted in the regard of the American people today than at any period since his accession to office.” Evening Standard Comment. The Evening Standard says: “Mr. Bryans resignation from Pres- ident Wilsons cabinet appears to fore+ shadow a more decided American- policy-——not necessarily intervention or war. It'was some vision of this, no doubt, which led Germany to des patch an unofficial emissary to ta unofficially of peace in the United States; he can be disavowed: mor: easily than Count von Bernstorff wiil the occasion requires. England will not emulate Germany in attempting to bully or cajole neutrals as to their policy. “The policy of the United States is a matter for the government and the people of the United States to settla themselves. Political feeling will run high in America during the next few days, but the issues are clear enough, although German agents will certain- 1y attempt to confuse the public mind. “We have already expressed our hope that the United States will not be drawn into the conflict, but it is becoming increasingly difficult for her to remain outside.
