Router’s correspondent at Amsterdam says that German press comments unanimously single out Great Britain as the enemy, and promise unheard-of terrors, which will “mortally hit the Island people.” The Dusseldorf newspaper General Anzeiger expresses the opinion that the value of unrestricted submarining is problematical, because there will be fewer sailings.

Neutrals must now show their true colors.” Reuter’s eorerspondent at Amsterdam says that the Reichstag -is debating; the speech of Dr von Bethmann Hollweg at a secret session.
