QUESTION UP
TO GERMANY
A. P. A. Service.
WASHINGTON, March 29.—
Secretary Lansing announced to
iay that the question of whether
t?ne Sussex was attacked by a
submarine or was injured by con

asking that nation if one of her
submarines is responsible. The
ecretary stated that a communi

present status of the matter the
.government has made no de
mands and the communication is
purely one of inquiry as to whe
ther or not one of the German
