GREAT BRITAIN HAS NO
FAITH IN GERMAN PROMISES

London, April Lord Robert Ce-
ell, minister of war of trade, replying
to the speech Of German Imperial
Chancellor Won Bethmann-H ollweg,
recently made in the reighstag, de-
clared that Great Britain had no faith
in any promise Germany might make
regarding submarine warfare.
His statement was made in con-
nection with the suggestion that Ger
many might abandon her submarine
warfare If England relaxed her block
ade. He said the German submarine
warfare ceased for a time because
the British navy deprived her of her
submarines. Now, he said, the cam
paign of destruction has begun again.
Won Bethmann- Hollweg's assertion
that England alone stood in the way
of peace, ne declared, was made to
fool the Germans and SOW distrust
among the entente allies.
