The most sensational aspect of the German publication of the Polish documents relating to utterances of American diplomats is the calculated attack upon the U.S. Foreign officials assured that they had not the slightest intention of drawing the U.S. into the war. They said that there will be no Lusitania case in this war and no Belgium. They also insisted that they had not sunk the Athenia. Now they have plainly had a change of heart and are ready to attack the U.S. to antagonize the public. They believe that they have the mastery of the air and are winning on the sea; they are making better headway against the British blockade than they had hoped and are inflicting extremely heavy losses on Allied and neutral shipping.
