CHIEF OF GERMAN STAFF CONSULTED ON ANSWER WASHINGTON MAKES FULL PLANS TO MEET BREAK WITH GERMANY Washington, April 22,-The United States government has made tentative plans to cope with every conceivable situation which would result from the severance of diplomatic relations with Germany. l"or reasons they said were obvious. officials to-night deemed it unwise to discuss the details. There is reason for believing, however, that some of the plans have to do with the safety of American citizens in the German Empire, and that others have to do with American supervision of German interests in the countries at war with Germany. Numeroua dispatches on these subjects are understood to have been sent to diplomatic representarives abroad, particularly to Am- bassador Gerard at Berlin.

Di*patches from Am- baaaadai Gerard, giving his view of the situation, are closely guarded by Presi- dent Wilson and Secretary I.ansing.but there are indieations that Mr. gerard ia not bopeful of . ..tisf.ctory reply to the President's d.mands.

Among dispatches received from Am¬ bassador Gerard within the last two davs was. one describing the manner in which the American note was received by German officials. While this was held a* confidential, it is understood the amb.asador repre- sented Berlin officials as being greatly Rurprised at the demands of the Wash¬ ington goxernment. Mr. Gerard is aaid to have gathered at least an impression that the Foreign Office had no idea that the communication would be as drastic and final as it was. Problem for Berlin. Administration officials believe the principal problem of the German For¬ eign Office is to frame a reply that will sat.sfv the United States and at tho same time give the impression in Germanv that no real eoncessions are being made. It is e^pected. therefore. that if Germany compUes with the 1NFANT BEGDiS LIFE IN DEATH _ Quick Operation Saves Unborn Child.Mother Drops from Window.

In- dications in them that there might be uelava or reques'.s for additional in- fcrmation wer* regarded bv officials as aignificant.
