764 - L. Mar. 11; ed:2/2 - Austrians and Prussians with bold leadership
in the Denmark war force the Danes out of Schleswig and Holstein and
even invade north into Denmark.
The English government calls a peace conference. "It is certainly
the part of wisdom for England to adopt this method of getting out of
difficulty in which she becomes involved. It would be a rash commit-
ment of herself to the support of tie Danes." (12)

765 - L July 14; ed: 2/1 - When time London conference, which assembled
to make harmony between Germany and Denmark, adjourned, the English
press was in favor of war against Germany and favoring Denmark. From
the beginning of the German war, the English government has threatened
until time for action; then it has backed down. "England is right in
trying to avoid war, as she would expose her merchantmen to droves of
Alabamas, but her cowardice is subject for laughter and disgust." - (5)

768 - L Aug. 25; ed: 2/3 - The Danish war, just closed, seems to Americans
like a very small affair, but before our own war broke out we would have
looked upon it with horror

even though Germany with the aid of Austria and Prussia won." (4)
