Reply of Germany

Expected Next Week
By JOHN EDWIN NEVIN,
Staff Correspondent of International
News Service.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.—Secretary
of State Lansing this afternoon in
formed Baron Erich Zwieainek,
Charge of the Austrian Embassy, nf
the United States’ position with re
gard to submarine warfare on armed
merchantmen,
It is understood the Secretary toid
the Baron what he did German Am
bassador von Bernstorff—that the
United States wants assurances from
Austrio-Hungary that her new sub
marine policy will not violate pledges
she has made to conduct submarine
warfare in afeordance with interna
tional law.
Baron Zweidinek called at the State
Department shortly after 1 o’clock.
Upon returning to the embassy he ‘s
understood to have prepared a.report
for his Government which will be
transmitted to Vienna at once. Thke
Austrian Foreign Nffice ig expected to
consult with the Berlin Foreign Of
fice after getting Baron Zwiedinek’s
note. An answer {8 expécted fron
Vienna at the same time word is re
ceived from Berlin. \
The British = Government, through
Colville Barclay, counselor to the em
bassy here, to-day asked the State
Department for its decision as to
whether the liner Appam is a prize.
He was told no decision had been
reached.
Reply Expected Early.
Germany’s reply to the latest Amer
fecan request for 'an explanation of
whether her new submarine war plans
abridge the promises previously made
to the United States is expected early
/ next week. :
Meanwhile, it is almost certain the
United States will prepare a general
communication in which will be set
forth just what the position of :this
Government is on the entire question.
This communication will*set forth the
belief that all merchant vessels have
the right to be stopped and searched
and provision made for the safety of
their crews and passeng?&fl, if they
carry any, before being Qu . whether
they carry arms or not‘and whether
their cargoes consist of cdntraband or
noncontraband.
It also {s expected that this general
communication will set/ fortl the views
of the United States as to just what
sort of guns a merchantman may e
gally carryv for defense and how they
shall be mounted. This will be pre
pared by the State Department and
submitted to President Wilson, but
whether it will be issued t& the bel
ligerents will depend on developments,
Prompt Reply Expected.
Teutonic circles here insisted to
day that Germany will make prompt
reply to the latest suggestions fron
Secretary Lansing. It is expected the
Foreign Office will concur tn the posi
tion taken by Count von Bernstorff
that until the Allies agree that their
merchant captains shall be warned
not to resist stoppage all armed ves
sels must be sunk with warning.
The embassy insisted tha.. when
the complete mail text of the evidence
submitted to Ambassador Gerard
reaches the State Department within
the next few days it \\-il)‘ be conclu
sively demonstrated that,“with the ex
ception of a few big passenger linars
plying the Aflantic, every French and
British steamer on the bceans has spe
cific orders to resist submarines “that
pursue” on sight: The fact that a
submarine “pursues” is held in the
orders, officials say, to be “conclusive
proof that it is of enemy origin.”
Until all of this evidence is passed
on by the State Depart nt it is not
rcpected tnat amy 2¢tion @il be taken
by the Administration to 6 bring the
gsubmarine controversy to a head.
Both England and France have bean
asked to expedite their replies to the
suggestion of the United States that
they agree to disarm their merchant
fleet., This Government wants the
facts as the Allies see them availasle
for-use as soon as possible,
Postponement Is Likely.
It {s believed here an announcement
of a postponement of the commende
ment of the Teutonic submarine war
fare against armed merchantmen
ghortly will be made from Berlln and
Vienna.
The attention of the German and
Austrian Governments has been called
to the fact that the “evidence” of the
Allies’ shinping methods has not vet
reached this country, and that It s
not expected before the middle of next
week,
Inasmuch as it is verv voluminous
and,constdered conclusive by the Ber
lin Foreign (OfMce, the embassies hare
bhave suggested to their home govern
mente that the State Department
should be given plenty of time com
pletely so digest it before any new
snove is made.

Novelists Princess Troubetzkoy
And Amelia E.Barr on Tragedy of
Marian Lambert’s End by Poison
SLAYER, HER
'VERDICT
Fear caused the death of Mar
ian Lambert in Heim’s woods.
Fear led her to take poison—
fear of the opinions of the world.
{Fear impelled young William
H. Orpet\fib bring to the girl the
+ poison that Killed her.
Society as a whole is respon
sible for the existence of that
fear. !
This indictment of ~the social
2 fabric, of all of the men and wo
men who do not sin in such Esh
ion along wmz the guilty, me
from the Princess Troubetzkoy,
As Amelie Rives, a beautiful
Virginia girl, she shocked and
held the public with her remark
able “The Quick or the Dead.”
From that maiden triumph to the
“Fear Market” she has befih an
analyst of human emotions.
The Princess dissects.hearts,
and much as a surgeon would a
body. She is peculiarly fitted to
think and to talk about such a
case as the finding of the body
of young Marian Lambert, half
covered with sno%l. in the fringe
of wood near Chicago, where a
last love tryst had been held with
the man to whom she pinned her
faith and her life’s best gift.
The pretty Princess, who was
seen in her New York home, took
the picture of voung Orpet. She
was gowned in -that fetching
manner that is almost her exclu
sive right. She looked i%ently
at the boyish face of the foung
Wisconsin junior.
THE OLD, OLD STORY.
“It is the old, old story,” she
said, with the air of a doctor who
had found a familiar symptom.
“The woman did tempt me and I
did eat’ It is ever the woman
who is to blame.
“It is the story of a girl's trust
and of her fear of the conse
quences,
“The point of view of socliety
is entirely wrong, particularly in
such a case as this. The pub
liec must adjust itself to a proper
viewpoint.” | &
The Princess lield the boy's
picture before her again, She
gave it a searching examination.
“It certainly isn’t the face of a
criminal,” she said. “Nor is it
the face of a degenerate.”
She took one of the cigarettes
. that the Prince “doles out,” with
infinite grace, and went on:
“Yet 1t is co«d and calculating.
The whole thing must have been
‘cold and ecalculating.
‘““Men don’t even shoot birds in
the v:fm?ing season, and I don’t
know that I ever heard of any
priests in birdland. The whole
policy of soclety is wrong. It
makes the girl fear the conse
qflg;ces of such a.condition.. If,
under a more sane system a girl
in such a plight were permitted
to bring her child into the world,
who knows that a genius, or a .
man of fame might not result?
Even in the days of chivalry and
heraldry, the bar sinister became
necessary. It marked inen of.
might, virile and valiant knights,
who under conditions like this
Chicago case would have died in a
snowy wood before‘the first dawn
ever came. ;
“But this condition has”come to
us often. Time after time we
have had similar cases. We have
had cases of a young woman's
trust and of her fall. What les
son have we learned” from these
cases? None. The girl still has
no sympathetic, \intellizent place
to go to in such a plight. We
have done nothing for this vital
question. g
PREFERRED TO TAKE POISON.
“This girl preferred to take poi
son and die rather than Yace the
self-conscious people who make
up the world.
“The lesson to be learned from
this girl's death is the need for a
broader and better society—a so
ciety. that will take a broader and
better view of girls in such a
condition. If this girl had not
been afrald to tesi some one she
could trust, this thing would nev
er have happened. 4
“Emphasis must be laid upon
the fact that, no matter what sin
this girl committed, no jnatter
what sin this boy committed, the
greatest sin is the sin commit
ted by soclety for having allowed
such conditions. Society is to
blame that this girl preferred to
face the grave rather than so
. clety. ,
“And it was fear that made the
boy give the crystals to the girl,
assuming that he did. I am not
seeking to pass judgment upon
his case in advance of the legal
evidence. It was fear of the dis
covery of his relations with the
girl—that dark fear that_haunts
men and drives them into crime.
“It is a etriking lesson for
mothers and fol"fetheu—-partio%-
larly for fathers—that, no mat
ter how serious the trouble, their
boys and their girls should be
encouraged to come to them and
freely tell them all of such things.
“People have a way of talking
of the ('‘reator and the wender
ful mysterjes of the Craeation, and
still they think it wrong to drop
the vell from the greatest of these
mysteries and let children know
necessary facts.
SOCIETY SHOULD RECEIVE GIRL.
“SBoclety in such cases should
permit the girl to face the world
with the full result of her love
affair. Crities will say that soch
a condition would make a race
of courtesans. That is not so.
The courtesan never bhecomes a
mother., She avoids such respon
sibilities, /
“No courtesan ever had such a
fear. Tp this gir! this young man
was the whole world. It was not
an immoral relationship, And the
time will come when society will
make provision for such cases,
| “Under the present conditions,
the first thing that a girl in such
A dilemma thinks of is hiding
. her status. She should be guarded
and cared for and made to realize

that this wonderful ' thing ‘had
come to her. And for her salva
tion she should be protected and
cared for. Nature is not moral:
Nature is generous and fruitful,
and Nature does not care whether
its products come from a union
that had the sanction of social
custom or not.
“Where there are so many
striking evidences of the fact that
Nature and Fate have sget at
naught the narrow ideas of so
ciety, what excuse have we for
not taking a more catholic view?
“Fear killed the lLambert girl.

ITHE ATUANTA GHEUKGIAN
GIRLS’ FREEDOM
The intoxicating freedom en-
Joyed by girls of the twentieth
century is one of the chief causes
which make possible a tragedy l
like that of Marian Lambert.
Each girl of our generation
carries at her girdle the magic
key that lets her forth into the
open streets. In an ecstasy of
delight she waltzes out into a
world of many pitfalls—this at
an age when her grandmother
was at home still plaiting her
hair into long pigtails.
This is the belief of Amella K.
Barr, dean of American women
writers,
-“The ordinary girl goes out and
takes life pretty much as she finds
it. Bo far as her honor is con
cerned, there are just two paths
over which she can walk; she can
either triumph over the tempta
tions of Jove or she can fall a vic
tim to these temptations. Under
the present system of soclety, if
the young girl escages the awful
thing she 18 fortunate—nothing
more. If the thing does happen,
it s what was to have been ex
pected, 'everything considered.
“Not a pleasant atmosphere in
which to be living, do you think?
But the only way to dispel such
an atmosphere is to analyze it as
it is. 3
“Look at the freedom of Marian
Lambert enjoyed. She was 18
years, old at the time of her
death, 1 understand. For two
vears before, she had been accus
tomed to go where she pleased
with'her sweetheart; go when she
pleased; do what she pleased.
“She was no exception. Hun
dreds of thousands of other high
school girls in this country can
do just the same thing. Then,
after something unexpected—
something tragic—has hap
pened to blot out a young
life, people ask WHY? They
would not need ask this eternal
question If girls were more close
ly supervised during the most im
pressionable and emotional period
of their lives. |
“I don't think you can teach
girls to guard themselves by pour
ing a mass of so-called ‘sex in
struction’ into their brains. All
girls know too fmuch of this sort
of thingd. The less they know the
greater is their modesty. And
there is no protection that makes
them more secure” than modesty.
This is the ‘inner voice’ which
, never whispers false advice.”
