No time limit was sot in the com- 1

eriod. If no reply Is forthcoming
ithin a reasonable time the step
coomplishing a break in relations, .
1th all its grave possibilities, will
e taken.
Congress assembled to-day imressed
with the deep significance
f the president's action. The disassionate
words in which Mr. Wilon
yesterday told a joint session
f the house and senate of his purose
took on a fuller force of meanig
when publication of the note to
lermanv revealed in what unmistakble
terms the American government
ad declared itself.
The Oerman ambassador. Count
on Rernstorff, was hopeful that his
overnment would find a way to preent
a break, l.ast night he sent a
mg message to Berlin, said to reominend
that some such assurances
s were given regarding submarine
perations in the Mediterranean
hould now he thrown around all

It is evident that the president's
emand is that the employment of

Senator Kern, majority leader in

Mill Im|M>st lj?st Week
The state department of educa
it ion was notified yesterday that tht
last or the 56 school districts ol
York countv voted a local tax of T
mills April 15. "This is one of th<
most satisfactory accomplishments ol
the year." said Superintendent J. E
Sweringer. in commending on the re
port. "No better evidence of th?
constructive leadership of count)
superintendent J. E. Carroll could b?
afforded, lie had 56 communities tc
reach, and the work has taken year;
of patient, tactful labor.
"York is the fifth county in the
state to secure a local levy in ever)
district. Since I) lrchester, Darlington.
Dillon and Chesterfield lib ir
the coastal and Pee Dee sections
York is the first county in the Piedmont
to furnish this universal interest
and co-operation in school taxation.
This success is partly due to
the state's policy of basing state aid
only upon local taxation. During the
last eight years the number of local
tax districts lias increased nearly 20fl
per cent. The proceeds of these district
levies exceed the amount collected
from the :?-mill .constitutional
rax. it is not uniiKciy tiuu several
more counties will nuiko a similat
report before July 1."
