To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not words, but the strengtli and resolution Ix^hind the words, that count. The chief function of diplomacy is prevention; but in tliis our diplomacy failed, doubtless because of its impaired credit and the manifest lack of disposition to back words with action. Had this Government, by the use of both informal and formal dij^lomatic opportunities, left no doubt that when we said "strict accountabil- ity" wo meant precisely what wo said, and that we should uidiositat- ingly vindicate that p...osition, I am confident that there would have been no destruction of American lives by the sinking of the Lusitania. There we had ample notice; in fact, published notice. Fm'thormore, we knew tho situation and we did not require specific notice. Instead of whitthng away our formal statements by equivocal conversations, we needed the straight, direct, and decisive representations which ever}^ diplomat and foreign ofTico would und(M-stand. I believe that in this way we should have boon spared the repeated assaults on American lives.
