Tho Lewis resolution would commit Con

The ip solution follows:
Whereas, the United States Is at war
with the Imperial German Government,
caused by act-i rf nggresslon upon the
United States by the said Imperial Ger
man Government, and
preceding tho suggestion of the President
of the United States, works confusion in
