Mee” mafine warfare in contravention of the principles of international law will be regafded as an unfriendly ac! ‘The discussion of principles is vir- tually ended. The American Govern- ment will now warn Germany of the interpretation it will place on future transgressions of American rights. In the new note the United States assumes that Germany already has admitted the principle that passen- gers must be removed to a place of safety before destroying an unresist- ing merchantman as a prize. Taking the position that the two Governments are agreed in principle, the United States views it as in- eumbent upon Germany to make her submarine practice conform with the accepted principles of international law. Any deviation in actual prac- tice resulting in the loss of American lives, it is then pointed out, will be viewed unfriendly act. The action which the United States might subsequently take ts not indt- cated, but in diplomatic usage, the phrase “unfriendly act” has always carried with it an {mplication of finality leading often’ to a severance of friendly relations. 4 Officials generally were secretive concerning the treatment of the Lusitania case In the new note, but it was believed the request for repa- ration would be renewed and this iasue kept before the two Govern ments as a subject of first import- ance in their future relations. ‘The note will reject Germany's pro- posals that American vessels be given complete immunity when not carrying eontraband and for the transfer to American r try of four belligerent vessels for transatiantic traffic, pro- vided they did not carry contraband. Again the American Government will reiterate willingness to act as an intermediary in adjusting the inter- ests of belligerents on the high seas, but will make it clear that so far as American rights are concerned they are not to be cuutounded with the practices of reprisals of one belliger- ent against another. ——_— FRANK’S RECOVERY PRACTICALLY CERTAIN Doctors Make Declaration After Re- porting Marked improvement in His Condilion, MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga., July 21.— Marked improvement in the condition of Leo M.
