MISTAKES NOT ADMISSIBLE.
AN INSULTING REPLY,
(Press Assn.—Reed. 8.15 p.m.)
WASHINGTON, May 7.
Secretary Lansing says mistakes in submarine warfare are inadmissible, and they might ask Germany to produce earlier orders to commanders to compare with new orders.
The "New York World" describes the reply as arrogant, insolent and insulting. America could not contemplate a suggested alliance with Germany with a view to breaking the British blockade. It would be a permanent stain upon America's honour.
There is a significant increase in the number of newspapers demanding compliance with the laws of humanity. . . .__
