Reported Saved
By JOHN EDWIN NEVIN,
Staff Correspondent of the International News Service.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.—The United States is preparing to
force a showdown on the entire submarine question jnsofar as the
Central Teutonic Powers are concerned. President Wilson is hur.
rying back to Washington from his honeymoon. He will arrive
here by to.morrow morning at the latest. He already has arranged
for an immediate conference with Secretary of State Lansing.
’, All of the facts dealing with the renewed submarine activity
both in the Mediterranean and North Sea will be presented to the
President for his consideration. He will then decide whether to
call a sspecial Cabinet meeting and also whether he wlil confer with
. members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
Because Consul Carrels at Alexandria reported that no subma
rine was seen in the attack on the liner Persia, the State Depart.
ment to-day decided to put the question of responsibility for the
sinking of that vessel directly up to Austria. Secretary Lansing
cabled Ambassador Penfleld at Vienna to ask the Austrian Foreign
Office if one of its submarines torpedoed the Persia. He also di.
rected him to obtain information regarding any Austrian sub
marines that may be operating in the Mediterranean whose com.
manders who have not been in touch with the Foreign Office re.
cently
Baron Enrich Zweidinck, charge of the Austrian Embassy,
called on Secretary Lansing shortly before noon to day to assuure
him that if it was an Austrian suubmarine that sank the Persia
and that the attack was not warranted. tha his Governmen will
arrange a salsfactory settlement’’ with the United States.
