Involved Is of such moment that to
remain a member of the cabinet
would bo unfair to you as It would
bo to tho cause nearest my heart,
namely tho prevention of the war.
I therefore respectfully tender my
resignation, to take effect when the
note Is iient,' unless you prefer an
earlier hour.
"Alike desirous of reaching a pea ru
ral solution or (he problems mining
out of the use of submarines against
merchantmen, we find ourselves dir

methods which should ho employed.
"It rails to your lot to speak
officially for the nation; I consider
It noiio the loss my duty to en
deavor as a private citizen to pro
