m two I GERMANS ACCEPT AMERICAN VIEW Subscribes to Principle Thai Passenger Ships Must be Warned I BERNSTORFF GIVES IMEWS TO LANSING Formal Statement Being Prepared for Presentation to United States. Washington.?Count Von Bernstorff, the Gorman ambassador on instructions from Berlin, verbally informed Secretary Lansing late last week that the German government had accepted the principle that passenger liners should be warned before attack by submarines. He formally communicated this information In writing. Count Von Bernstorff was informed that the United States could not accept as final an oral transmission of the German point of veiw. Secretary Lansing said he would withhold comment until a written memorandum was received. After a brief visit from Count Bernstorff, Secretary Lansing said: "The German ambassador told me that his government would accept our declarations regarding submarine war fare in principle. The ambassador agreed to reduce his statement to writing," ... " Acceptance of the principle that pas senger ships are not to be attacked without warning is considered by this government as an answer to President Wilson's last note on the Lusitnnin nml if it is established clearly that Germany has yielded to tho United States demands in regard to the safety of neutrals on the high seas, it is taken for granted that the Lusitania controversy will bo well under way toward an amicable settlement. . ? o STORM ON COAST ' .
