reply to America is published by the

states the following remarks hv the
chancellor nay be accepted as aathen-
tic
Il have said before that we must
drop All sentimentaIity. With REGARD
to our dispute with America our self
respect was wounded by the aggres-
sive wording of the American note
to Germany. our feelings urged as
to repel this interference with our
legitimate methods Of welfare and tell
America to mind her own business,
but considerations of policy compel
us to subordinate patriotic zeal to
patriotic reason.
1--WE have one aim and one duty,
namely. to win the war therefore,
any policy which endangers our vic
tory must be avoided. The overwhelm-
ing majority Of expert opinion regards
a rupture of relations with America as
a grave peril"
