ii ml Salulos Resound Speech
Defines America's Attitude.
NKW YORK, May 17. President Wil
son the man on whom the eyes of the
world are turned oecause of the in
ternational situation today relewed
the Atlantic fleet in the Hudson River
and at a luncheon tendered to him on
shore by the City of New York told a
distinguished fathering of Navy offi
cers. Army officers and civilians what
the country and Its Navy stood for.
The great battleships that lay In the
river, ho said, were "enginea to pro
mote the Interests of humanity."
"The inspiring- thing about America,"
the President asserted, "is that she
asks nothing for herself except what
she has a right to ask for humanity
itself. We want no nation's property;
we wish to question no nation's honor;
we wish to stand selfishly In the way
of the development of no nation. . . .
It is not pretension on our part to say
that we are privileged to stand for
what every nation would, like to stand
for and speaking for those things
which all humanity most desire."
America' Force l.rldenccd.
The spirit which brooded over the
river today, said the President, was
"just a solemn evidence that the force
of America is the force of mora prin
ciple, that there is not anything else
she loves and that there is not any
thing else for which she will contend."
The President took occasion In his
speech to pay tribute to (Secretary of
the Navy Daniels, who sat beeide him.
Although the day was damp and
chilly. with occasional downpours
of rain, tho weather abated in no way
the enthusiasm with which "ew York
greeted the head of the Nation. In the
forenoon he reviewed a land parade
of S000 sailors and marines from the
fleet's 16 battleships, and from the mo
ment he set foot on shore until after
the luncheon he returned to the May
flower to review the fleet, his progress
through the streets was a continuous
ovation, remarked upon by those who
accompanied him as the most enthusi
astic they had witnessed since the
President's inauguration. He was
plainly touched by the welcome ac-coi-ded
him.
Patriotism In Kvldenre.
Everywhere the spirit of patriotism
wis in evidence. Marty men and
women seized every opportunity to tell
the President of their support in the
present International crisis. Thou
sands stood in the chill drizzle while
the brigade of sailors and marines
marched up Fifth avenue, and during
the afternoon, with a cold, damp wind
blowing across the Hudson, thousands
more thronged the slopes of Riverside
Drive and other vantage points to
watch the Mayflower as she passed up
the river between the grim gray linea
of war vessels.
The President's remarks at the
luncheon were greeted with tremendous
applause.
The President boarded his yacht for
the review at 3 o'clock, after a quick
trip from the Hotel Biltmore. where
the luncheon was held. A half hour
wa.s spent in receiving official visits
from the flag officers and captains of
the riect, and then the Mayflower got
undc way. The President, together
with Secretary of the Xavy Daniels,
Secretary Iane. Secretary Jtedftcld and
Acting Mayor McAneny. Mood on the

The fleet stretched ahead up the
river for four miles, each ship dressed
from stem to stern with pennants and
ensigns, the National colors fluttering
over the taffralls and mastheads. The
crows. In blue service uniform, the of
ficrrs in gold lace, manned the rails.
Am tho President's yacht, convoyed
by four destroyers, reached the flag
ship Wyoming the first in line, the
President's salute of 21 guns boomed
across the water and reverherated back
and forth between the Palisades and
New York's skyscrapers. Kach battle

President Wilson kept up a constant
trea.ni of questions to those about
Win. He asked about the. armament
and' crew of "each ship and often ex
pressed his pleasure.
The frequent playing of the National
nthem kept tne President's head
bare during most of the review. De
spite the mist he refused to keep his
bat on.
"f have too much respect for the
fleet and the anthem," he remarked.
A miniature boat called "The Suf
frage" hanging on the Michigan, which
later appeared in tne water carnival
tonight, attracted the President's at
tention, but he only smiled.
The President remaineer aboard the
yacht after she had again cast anchor

GERMANY HOT TO

Lokal Anzieger Declares War

AMERICAN VIEW AMAZES
Newspapers. Commenting on Presi
dent's Note Before Being l-'orbid-dcii
to Print Anything, Place
Alt Blame on Great Britain.
BERLIN, via London, May 17. The
American note to Germany has not
yet been officially given out. The
afternoon papers, however, print the
version of the document as telegraphed
here by the Havas Agency. With the
single exception of the Lokal Anzeiger.
all refrain from comment. The Lokal
Anzeiger says:
"The German government certainly
will not delay long with the answer
requested and probably will reply that
In occupying itself with its 'sacred
duties' it is -not to be disturbed from
any side.
"That the American Government
should consider the Lusitania as a
harmless packet boat, without taking
notice of the fact that it was really an
auxiliary cruiser and an ammunition
steamer of the British navy appears
to us scarcely believable. But the
German answer to Washington will
make it comprehensible to Mr. Wilson,
in language as rolite as It will be clear,
that we must conduct the war as we
are conducting it and can conduct it
with a clear conscience."
The Taglische Rundschau, comment
ing on the reports that the Lusitania
Incident has caused a "growing In
sight" in America, says:
"This insight probably will lead to
the discovery that England really is
the guilty party because it took ammu
nition on board a passenger steamer in
contravention of the American laws."
After quoting the statute, which it
argues covers this point, the Taglis
che Rundschau concludes:
"According to the American laws, the
Captain of the Lusitania ought to go
to prison."
A confidential note to the e'ditors of
the newspapers, which reached them
too late, says that nothing regarding
the American note may be printed for
the time being.
