An American correspondent writes : " A sensational background has been given Mr. Wilson's address to Congress, owing to a serious turn in the German-American controversies. Cabinet decided that the indefinite complaints against Captain Boy-Ed and Captain Papen did not warrant action being taken, but the German Ambassador, Count Bernstorff, has been instructed to tell Mr. Lansing that in view of the outrageous insinuations against Captain Boy-Ed, German honour will be affronted unless matters are convincingly cleared up. The press brands the German reply as impertinent."
Replying to a question in the House of Commons, Sir Edward Grey said Britain had not been asked for a safe-conduct for Captain BoyEd. The number granted to Austrians and Germans from America was four, including one to Dr. Duraba, the. Austrian Ambassador, who was recalled.
