And to this I will do no mqre than quote what the Chancellor himself said in the Reich- stag, when announcing the adoption of unrestricted war. “He said that as soon as he himselt, in agreement with the supreme army command, reached the conviction that ruthless U-boat warfare would bring Germany' nearer to a victorious peace, then the.
