By Lowell Mellett
(United Press staff correspondent)
London, Sept. 10. Possibilities of all
Vandimivia becoming involved in the
war were seen in London, today, fol
lowing America's revelations of the
German-Swedish intrigue in sending
messages from Argentine through the
Stockholm foreign office.
The disclosures are regarded as of
the highest importance here, opening
up possibilities l'or a long chain of in
ternational events-
Furthermore, the action of the allied
governments in refusing to permit so
rialist and labor delegates to attend
the Stockholm peace conference are
now regarded as completely vindicat
ed. The British and American govern
ments had knowledge of Sweden's pro
Germanism at the time and took the
Hi and that a conference in Stockholm
free from German influence was im
possible. Severance of relations between the
sillies and Sweden is regarded as cer
tain in England, unless the Swedish
government makes proper explanation'
of its participation in the German in
trigue and makes an immediate apolo
gy, at tho same time dismissing the re
sponsible officials - and giving., assur
ances that there will be no repetition
of such an incident.
May cause Crisis
The revelations may bring about a
crisis in Sweden. A change in the Swcil
ish government is forecast in the result
of the general elections which are now
in progress and which have already
idiown a heavy increase in the liberal
and social-democratie vote. The Ameri
can expose is deemed certain to give
the Britang (social-democrat) party
control.
In view of this situation, the possi
bility is faced of the present govern
ment taking the desperate course of
siding openly with Germany, risking
the domestic, as well as the interna
tional consequences.
This would mean Germany's long an
ticipated seizure of Denmark, accord
ing to the general belief here. It would
mean cutting off of a large portion of
simnlies to Russia, but on the
..tlwr hmnl. such a step bv Sweden
would doubtless drive Norway into the
allied camp.
Mia.i't End Submarine War
With Norway numbered among the
enemies of Germany, the allied fleet
would have a base on the Norwegian
i'o-ist. enabling the allies to ileal wit.i
the submarine campaign far more ef
fectively than is now possible.

Washington, Sept. 10. The United
States government has no intention
now of breaking relations with Sweden
because of the "spurlos vcrsenkt" so-
ret communications forwarded for
Germany by the Buenos Aires Swedish
minister.
Whilo Sweden's explanation may al
ter the American position, it was made
olncially clear today that the united
States does not feel itself to bo the
injured party, and hence that it can
not well break off with Sweden.
In letting it be known that no break,
is considered, the state department
added that to establish an injury to
the United States, it probably would
be necessary to show that Sweden had
been forwarding information involving
United States affair.
It stated it was "possible" Sweden
had been the medium whereby Ger
many learned of the sailing of the first
American transports, which Germaifl
U-boats later attacked. There is no
proof, however, that this is more than
" possible. "
Experts Explanation
The state department anticipates
some sort of explanation from Sweden,
but in the meantime, the departments
utterances, are guarded.
The American government, it is
known, has no absolute proof that the
Stockholm foreign office was fully cog
nizant of the affair and it attaches no
blame to the Swedish people.
It was indicated, however, that this
government believes there ought to be
some sort of housecleaning in Sweden,
although it has not officially suggest
ed such a course.
Argentino and Great Britain are
held to be the great sufferers in the
incident. The plot was hatched on Ar

President Wilson Can Bring
Immediate Peace Says a
Prominent German Socialist
By John Grandens
("United Press staff correspondent)
(Copyright 11H7, by the United Press)
Berlin, via London, Sept. 10. Presi-
lent Wilson can bring immediate peace
if he will prove by acts tho faith in
the German people he has expressed in
words. Philip Seheidemann, leader of
the German socialist majority party,
ledared today in an exclusive inter

"Further bloodshed is now unneces

It is punning on, auuougii, as in Am

"The German advance will be quick
er the sooner the obstacles of war are
removed." .
Special significance attaches to
Seheidemann 's views on the American
note and as to Germany's democratiza
tion. The German socialist majority
leader is now at tne head of a special
committee charged by the kaiser with
investigating Germany's constitutional
svstem and recommending reforms. It
was Seheidemann who fostered the plan
for a socialist international meeting at
Stockholm, in an effort to obtain a
basis of mutual understanding. His
interview was granted the United
1'resa after detailed analysis of Pres
ident Wilson's reply to Pope Benedict.

Tremendous Revulsion of
Public Opinion Fol'ows
Disclosure of Treachery
(By Charles P. Stewart)
(United Press Staff Correspondent,
Buenos Aires, Sept. 10. Argentine's
greatest anger today was directed at
Sweden rather than Germany.
Comment on the American revelation
of Germany's secret channel of com
munications from the German charge
at Buenos Aires through tho Swedish le
gation in Stockholm and thence to Ber
lin, was still withheld in all orriciat
lrcles. It wa-i plain, however, tiiat 01-
fieinls regarded Sweden as having play
ed the most offensive part ia tho mat
ter.
La Epoca, recognized as a govern
ment organ, apparently voiced the of
ficial view today when it declared, re
ferring to Sweden:
"It is impossible to believe such mon
strous discourtesy despite the source of
the information. But if it is proved cer
tain, the government will denounce suctt
conduct."
The Swedish charge today confirmed
his legation's denial that anything was
handled for Luxburg. N exertheless, the
accuracy of Washington s version oi the
the affair waa accepted practically with
out question here. . .
Break May Not Occur.
The only doubts expressed at alt re
lated to possible variations in phrase
ology in the verbiage, caused by tho
various translations of tho text of Lux
burg's messages. It was pointed out
the missives had originally been pre
pared in German, translated Into Eng
lish and then, for publication here, re
translated into Spanish.
It appeared certain today that speedy
demand would be mado for recall of the
German charge, Count Luxburg. Buenos
Aires does not expect tho Gorman dip
lomat ever to return from his vacation,
but to find a haven in Chile.
It was not believed that a break be
tween Argentino and Germany would
ensue, because, unofficially, the view
was taken that the matter was a per
sonal " one. .
Every comment today indicated tna
Swedish situation was considered mucii
more serious than the revelations of
German diplomacy. If tho case against
the Swedish charge is proved, Buenos
Aires holds that the Swedish foreign
office is apparently involved. In this
case, the discourtesy to Argentine be
comes not an act of one of Sweden a
diplomatic officials, but of Sweden her
self. .
Anti-German Feeling Grows.
Demand fo.- the recall of the Swedish
charge and for full explanation of the
circumstances from Stockholm was ex

Sweden. . , .
