"The Imperial Government believes it can asume that in this manner adequate facilities for travel across the Atlantic ocean can be afforded American citizens. There would, therefore, appear to be no compelling necessity for Americans to travel to Europe in time of war on ships carrying an enemy flag. "In particular the Imperial Government is unable to admit that American citizens can protect an enemy ship through the mere fact of their presence on ooara. Followed England's Example. "Germany merely followed England's example when she declared part of the high sea an area of war. Consequently accidents suffered by neutrals on enemy ships in this area of war cannot well be judged differently from accidents to which neutrals are at all times exposed at the seat of war on land when they betake themselves into dangerous localities in spite of previous warnings. "If, however, it should not be possible for the American Government to acquire an adequate number of neutral passenger steamers the Imperial Government is prepared to interpose no objection to the placing under tne American nag- uy tne American Government of four enemy passenger steamers for passenger traffic between North America and England. Assurances of 'free and safe' passage for American passenger steamers would extend to apply under the identical pro-conditions to these formerly hostile passenger steamers. "The President of the United States has declared his readiness in a way deserving thanks to communicate and suggest proposal to the VJV vci11111C11C v/i uicau ui nam w 1 in particular reference to the alteration of submarine war. The Imperial Government will always be glad to make use of the good offices of the President, and hopes that his efforts in the present case, as well as in the direction of the lofty ideal of the freedom of the seas, will lead to an understanding.
