HE protestations of the German Imperial Chancellor that Ger- many has no thought of “rushing against the American con- tinent” now or later are earnest enough but hardly called for. | This nation has not been anxiously awaiting assurances that Germany will not attack it. On that point Dr. von Bethmann- Hollweg might have eaved his breath so far as we are concerned. What we ehould rather have heard from him is some frank, con- vincing statement indicating what Germany means to do to meet our just claims as a friend—and neutral. His epeech to the Reichstag could not, perhaps, have included euch @ etalement. At all events it did not. Instead he used only the ame old evasive phrases already made familiar to the point of etale- nese by the German Foreign Office: “Germany must defend itself against this war of starvation. No one can ask us to permit our arms of defense to be wrested from our hands. We use them and myst uee them.” “We respect legitimate rigits of neutral trade and com- merce, but we can expect that this will be appreciated and that our right way and our duty will be recognized—to use all means against this policy of starvation.” This follows clo randum received in Washington before the sinking of the Sussex} e. brought the submarine controversy to another erisis.
