The German ambassador hints at a note addressing the Arabic sinking and Lusitania dispute. It must respect U S rights on the seas under international law. Berlin’s past proposals on passenger ships and sea rights show misread expectations. A genuine acknowledgment of American rights could avert conflict, but refusal to concede risks tension. The note’s reception hinges on Germany backing down from prior positions.
