was received by the German govern-

several urgent messages to Romo to
ascertain the cause of the delay, and
it is probable Ambassador Page will
make a thorough investigation. Until
the result .of Ambassador Page’s in-
quiries are known, the State Depart-
ment takes the view that the delay
was due to congestion on the Italian
telegraph lines.
The belief is current in Washington,
although not confirmed by ths State
Department, that Dr. Bernhard Dorn-
burg, -regarded as the unofficial
spokesman of the German govern-
meat, intends to leave the United

tion ‘to do so from this Government.

said'to have Informed his government
that the people at the United States
are firmly behind the President in his
demand, believing that he seeks to up-
hold the general principle* of inter-
national law.
* Reply Can’t Be Looked For.
The unexpected delay in the trans-
mission of the note to Berlin means
that a reply can not be looked for
until about the end of next week.
Considerable concern was displayed
at the State Department today re-
garding the delay .
It was suggested in some quarters
that the delay was intentional and
due to the interest of some persons
or agencies in widening the breach
between this Gevernment and Ger-
many, by putting the United States in
the position of slighting the German
government The effect of the delay
was to upset the plan of this Govern-
