the German government that started the war. Here
unlike Germany, the free is secure despite its
disagreement with government polices-even the Ger

Harden refers the repeated efforts made by British
statesmen to avert European war and accuses the
German foreign ministry having caused "a cold
breeze TO blow from Berlin" to chill those efforts
He skaters the Berlin theory Sir Edward Grey
the British foreign minister is a "hrebrand"
He rdicules the stereotyped Berlin dicum that the
war forced upon us" remarking that that state

He tells of efforts made by the British
