America's Reply to the Kaiser May 3 1918 Note to Germany
Secretary Lansing's note to Ambassador Gerard outlines the United States acceptance of Germany's abandonment of the submarine policy and demands that Germany adhere to the altered policy. The U S government states it cannot entertain any condition tying neutral rights to the conduct of any other government and emphasizes the need for Germany to follow international law in submarine warfare. Lansing notes Germany yielded to American representations but warns that disputes with Britain remain separate and that treaty obligations with Britain govern any handling of mutual disputes.
