The reference to averting war, ' is
taken as an indication that Ambassa
dor Cernstorff had prior fcnewledge
of his government's intention to' pro
claim a, merciless widespread subma
rine warfare, and that he, was equal-
Jy confident that the United: States
government could not be : easily pla
cated by mere ' promises. "s The Ger
man announcement 'of - Its intention
to expand its submarine - activities
as not made public until A January
31, when the world was 'Startled, not
nly by the determination; to remove
all lT'strictionn, but . by the statement
that ir would become effective on the.
Jollowinp: day. Three days later the
United States government had. ' ex
pressed its disapproval byV severing

That the German ambassador : knew
of his government's intention was: as

and those in close touch" with the
c-mbassy were given to -understand
that h(, not approve the " course

When the Senator, in making his dec

to defend the sinking of the Lusi
tania, there came cries of "you're yellow."-
Instantly thero was confusion,
