PRESIDENT FOR
GERMAN CRISIS
California Senator Declares United
States Not Neutral as a Nation and
Protests Action of President in
Severing Diplomatic Relations
Says Attitude Is False Sense.
WASHINGTON, Keb. 7. AsBert
ini! that the United States hag not
been neutral as u nation ami that if
It had the country never would have
been brought to a breach with Ger
many, Senator Works, republican of
California, protested In tbo senate
today aKalnst the action of tho presi
dent in BCverlnK diplomatic relations.
Senator Works said ho did not
question tho good faith of the presi
dent and cave him credit for "con
scientious motives and prutrlollc pur
poses," but protested "nualnst this or
any other movement that lends
toward war wit li Germany, for no
greater cause than has yet been Riven;
us."
War Not JuMlfieil.
"I Insist," said (he senator, after
reviewing tho German neiroliations
and the president's determination to
uphold American rights on the seas,
"that neither a private citizen nor
tho president nor congress can be
Justified In driving tills nntlon Into i
war or endangering Us peace, by any
such fulso sonso of courago or na
tional prestige or dignity."
Iteviewing the 'Liislluniu ease at
length and branding It as a "cruel
and unjust wrong to our people and
to the nalion," the senator said it
was well to consider how far "we,
ourselves, by our coui'ho of action,
contributed to this loss of American
lives.
"Our government knew whnt was
threatened, but we allowed the ship
to sail, carrying American citizens
Into tho very jaws of death. Ger
many was fighting for her life. So
were Kngland and France nnd (he
other nations engaged in the war.
What could have been expected of
Germany under such i-iic:itnstani:cs
Whnt moral right bail we to tempt
Germany to this fearful act by tills
threat against the lives of her
pie?

"This government cannot shield
Itself from the fearful responsibility
It is hound to accept Tor this drend
ful tragedy. We have continued
from that timo on to nld the enemies
of Germany In the tame way. W

ninny of our people have not attempt -
ed to conceal the fact of their unneu- high seas, nor do 1 countenance the

tral, as we professed to be, wo would lenlly, and persistently hns violated

"That Germany has violated the
rights of our people on the sea under
International law, no ono can deny,
hut so has Great Dritain and so would
any other belligerent nation, flghlln.T
for existence, if necessary, for her
success, so would we do, I apprehend, would vole for the resolution, hut re

"Tlie German government has do-' cause ho felt that if the senate's

To the Citizens of Ifedi'ord ;
As n crisis is eonfruutin; our gov
ernment at the present time and the
world at !iire,e is at hieji tension, it
seems to be that any rash or thought
less act would at any moment throw
litis country into a woildwide war.
..Jliis is a lime for deep, earnest thinking-,
and not for hasty words, or ac
tions. Many of our citizens have a
deep love for their fatherland, but at
the same time are loyal to this, their
adoutcd country. It is therefore the
duty of every citizen to refrain from
exoressing1 themselves disresncet fully
regarding conditions, thereby enus
inir unrest nnd hatred among our citi
zens who are of foreign birth. I
would, therefore, respect fully suggest
that all citizens, regardless of party
or creed, show their appreciation of
the delicate situation by giving- our
unanimous support to our president
in this, his c,rcnt I rial of impending
diftieuliies, by displaying- the Ameri
can flag- upon all buildings nnd resi
dences. Also that n small emblem be
worn by those who can do so.
Let us throw our entire strength be
hind our president in the handling- of
Ihis o.rave silnation.
