are advising a course of action which would place the United States in the same position toward the killing of Americana by German submarines as the administration has maintained toward the killing of Americans in Mexico.
Senator Stone, the democratic chairman of the senate foreign relations committee, has made it clear that he believes the United States has little justification for aggressive action against Germany because of the loss of American lives on the Luaitania. Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia, takes a similar stand.
Both these senators say the destruction of the American steamer Gulflight, causing the death of three Americans, is vastly more important than the destruction of the British steamer Lusitania, in which the 100 Americans lost deliberately intrusted their safety to a belligerent flag.
Effect Would Be Serious. A severance of diplomatic relations with Germany, it was pointed out, would have a serious effect on the humanitarian work the United States has been conducting. The American diplomatic staff in Belgium may not be permitted by Germany to remain and complications that might destroy the effectiveness of the American relief might result. These are considerations which it is known the president is turning over in his mind but it is understood, too, that he feels that the action of the United States government should express in an emphatic way the disapproval of the destruction without warning of a passenger liner with the loss of more than a thousand lives, at least one hundred of whom were Americans.
Some official familiar with jtne situation and hitherto in the president's confidence expressed the view that he probably would seek some course that would accomplish something for the cause of humanity. He would endeavor. they suggested, to advance some proposal for the abandonment of submarine warfare against non-combat-
presents, products.
