PRESIDENTS SPEECH.
(Continued from Page 1.)
perial German government gave this
government the following assurances:
" 'The German government Is pre
pared to do its utmost to confine the
operations of war for the rest of Its
duration to the fighting forces of the
belligerents, thereby also insuring the
freedom of the seas, a principle upon
which the German government be
lieves now, as before to be in agree
ment with the government of the
United States. .
" 'The eGrman .government, guid
ed by this idea, notifies the govern
ment of the United States that the
German naval forces have received
the following orders:
" 'In accordance with the general
principles of visit and search and de
struction of merchant vessels recog
nized by international law, such ves
sels, both within and without the area
declared a naval war zone, shall not
be sunk without warning and without
saving human lives, unless these ships
attempt to escape or offer resistance.
" 'But,' It added, "neutrals cannot
expect that Germany, forced to fight
for her existence, shall, for the sake
of neutral Interest, restrict the use of
an effective weapon if her enemy la
permitted to continue to apply at will
methods of warfare violating the
rules of International law. 'kucfe a
demand would be Incompatible with
the character of neutrality and the
German government is convinced
that the government of the United
States does not think of making such
a demand, knowing that the govern
ment of the United States has repeat
edly declared that It is determined to
restore the principle 'of he freedom
of the seas, from whatever quarter
It has been violated.'
American Reply Reviewed. ,
"To this the government of the
United States replied on the eighth of
May, accepting, of course, the assur.
ances given, but adding:
" The government of the Uniton
States feels it necessary to state that
It takes for granted that the Imperial
German government does not Intend

newly announced policy is in any way
contingent upon the conr.e or restnt -of
diplomatic negotiations between (

and any other belligerent govemmeit js

note of the fourth Jnstant might ap
pear to be susceptible of that con
struction. In order, however, to avoid
any misunderstanding, the govern
ment of the United State notifies the
imnerial government that it cannot
for s moment entertain, much lei!

German naval authorities for the
rights of citizens of the United States
upon the high sees should In any wav
or In the slightest degree be mAe
contingent upon the conduct of any
other government affecting the rights
f r,.ntrl and noncombatanta. "Re
sponsibility In such matters Is single,
not Joint: absolute, not relative.
"To this note of the eighth of Mav
the Imperial German government
made no reply.
"On the thirty-first of Jannary, the
Wednesday of the present week, th)
German ambassador handed to th
secretry of state, along with a for
mal note, a memorandum which con
tained the following statement:
" The Imperial government, there,

ment of the United States will under
Stand the situation thus forced upon
Germany by the entent allies' brutal
methods of war and by their determi
nation to destroy the central powers

allies gives back to Germany the free,
dom of action which she reserved n

many will meet the Illegal measures of
her enemies by forcibly preventing
after February f, 1917, In a zone
around Great Britain, France, Italy
and in Eastern Mediterranean, all
navigation, that of neutrals Included,
from and to England and from anU
to France, etc., etc. All ships met
within the zone will be sunk.'
"I think that you will agree with'
me that, In view of this declaration,
which suddenly and without prior In
timation of any kind, deliberately
withdraws the solemn assurance given
in the Imperial government's note o!
the fourth of May, 1916, this govern
ment has no alternative consistent
with the dignity and honor of the
United tSates but to take the course,
which, in its note of, the eighteenth of
April, 1916, it announced that it
would take in the event that the Ger
man government did not declare and
effect an abandonment of the meth
ods of submarine warfare which it
was' then emloying and to which it
now purposes again to resort,
"I have, therefore, directed the sec
retary of state to announce to his ex
cellency, the German ambassador,
that all diplomatic relations between
the. United States' and the German em
pire are severed and that the Ameri
can ambassador at Berlin will be Im
mediately withdrawn; and, in accord
ance with this decision, to hand to his
excellency his passports.
Overt Acts Not Expected.
"Notwithstanding this unexpected
attitude of the German government,
this sudden and deeply deplorable re
nunciation of Its assurances, given
this government at one of the most
critical moments of tension In the re
lations of the two governments, I re-
