EXPRESSES VIEWS ; i'r. ^Fever-Gerhard Declares America iiiid Germany Do >ot Understand Each Other. * i Berlin, June 29.?(Ey wireless to Sayvilie.)?I>r. Anton Meyer-Gerrard. the attache of the German colonial of-, free, who was sent from the United, '">l ' - ' - - - 1 1 +V - O on n m Ko c _ ' lO ?>ernn UV Uig UCI mail aimkruosador, Count von <Bernstorff, to explain the. views of the United States regard-. ing t'.e Lusitania ease, published an! article in Der Tag today on "Germany ; and America," in which he says his ex-: periences convinced him that the two i countries misunderstand each other. "It is true." said Dr. Meyer-Gerhard, "that the American press, with some laudable exceptions, especially t'be German-American papers, have not succeeded in remaining neutral, but! the influence of the press upon public opinion is sometimes greatly over-esti- j mated. Doubtless large sections of the American people are friendly toward Germany, wfiose emcient organization is dailv winning new friends and , arousing interest in things German. j "One excellent effect of the war is upon German-Americans, who, with- j out sacrifice of their loyalty to their adopted country, have shown strong remembrance of t' eir descent, their, education and their cu-lture. Besides \ them, cn the other side of the ocean, j there are wide circles who sympathize with Germany." Ammunition Question. Alluding to the discusion over the ammunition question, Mr. Meyfer-Gerhard said: "Germans often mistake large am-1 munition orders for filled orders. To / ? j a large extent such^orders are.x;hanging big factories into ammunition works. This is regrettable, but thel writer is convinced that large parts' of the American people disapprove of ' it. A popular vote would show a con- j sidearbile majority against the practice. Germans must discriminate be-| tween business and accepting orders' and the great mass of the American ' people. "Equally there are Americans who condemn violation of Belgian neutral-, ity and the sinking of the Lusitania,: and are unable to understand t!':e Ger-! man idea of the real condition, while Germans are unable to understand how Americans could travel on an ammunition ship. Both people are laboring under entirely different opin-; ions. Both have lived hitherto in peace and friendship, and should con- j tinue so to 3ive. There is no real reaspn for antagonism existing between them.''- Cites Causes. In t'-e course of his article, Dr. J Meyer-Gerhard spoke of-the causes which he said had awakened Ger-! many's former friendly feeling toward j America, citing them as what he' + n thp latt.pr's inclination ; UiiUUVU bV ??w - ? ? - ? towards England and munition sales in America. Germany on the other hand, ?e said, was reproached with violating Belgian neutrality and de-| voting itself to militarism in order to( conquer the whole world. The deaths' of Americans on the Lusitaniah ad un-! favorably affected American sentiment towards Germany, he added. Regaiuing the question of Belgian! neutrality and militarism, the writer; says the Germans cannot understand., the feeling aroused in America over | these questions, as t-ey know that! "D/O orin Vl 0.-T ATt'n T1 i U^iglO/U OUHO UUV1W VI'U I ity and that militarism is only the! German nation in arms for its own de-! fen-ce. The American viewpoint was j different, however, and each nation feels itself wrongly treated toy the other. The whole matter was only one of misunderstanding, said Dr. Meyer- j Gerhard, whicTn can also arise be? j tween friends. No sensible man, hej said, will light-heartedly throw away! a friendship of long years because he cannot on one occasion make himself completely understood. Sensible nations, he argued, will conduct themselves in like manner. "Friendship between Germany and j America," declared Dr. Meyer-Gerhard . "is a vail uable possession for botfa na-J tions, and it is worth while to take care that it be saved to both." The Lokal Anzeiger, which also i printed the article, commenting editorrially on it said: "The foregoing instructive and i cheering remarks by Dr. Meyer-Ger- j hard show itftat the imperial govern-; ment is on the right road with its i treatment of questions existing be- j ween us and the United States. It is, to be wished also that tfnose circles which heretofore have been inclined to make light of our differences with America as being utterly unimportant will 'let themselves be taught better by Dr. Meyer-Gerhard's words."

Cauthen came over from Pawley's Island to tie the knot. Only a few persons in the city knew of the intentions of the couple until an hour or two before the ceremony; but good news travels fast, and by the hour named information on tr:e subject was at a premium.
