German Upholds U-Boat War and Condemns AlEe-Blockade

BERLIN, Sept. 4. P)-Vice Ad- miral Hollwig deplores the fact that the German submarine war was not started earlier and carried through ruthlessly. For then, he declares in an article in the Deutche Allgemeine Zeitung, all American armaments and munitions would have proved worth less and Hindenburg, and not Wilson, would have won the war.
 The admiral speaks of submarine warfare as a "God-given gift" which had been entrusted to Germany in self protection against the inhuman blockade which, though sanctioned by America was a violation of all precepts of international law"
 The writer emphatically denies that it was the unrestricted subma- rine campaign which induced Ameri- ca to enter the war. Those Ger mans "who still adhere to that opin' ion, as Count Bernstorff," he refers to as poor simple-minded cosmo politan souls"
