 Nothing san excuse William from resp onsibiIty for the war-it was the stroke of his pen alone which made the declaration of war, after the first false statement had been made that France had invaded Germany"
 Mir: Gerard was in Germany prior te the outbreak of the world war. was Intimately acquainted with the German court and diplomatic circles and remained at Berlin until the United States declared war on Ger many.
 ''As te the 6asertiea of the Kaiser, it is true that Hindenpurg and the older man at Great German haad- quarters advised htiIn to flee to Hp1- land" Mir. Gerard continued. :sBut the younger men like Burgras Doh na, coInmander of the AIoewe, and others. advised the Kaiser if he quit and ran to hide himself behind the ample skirts of the Queen of Holland, neither he nor any other Hohenzol- Tern would eyer occupy the German Inftrial thFene:
