Chancellor Von Bethmann-Hollweg,'e declaration before the Reichstag' that any statesman failing to use Germany's every weapon to shorten the war "de serves to be hanged," and the recent apparently inspired simultaneous pub lication in German papers of attacks on American neutrality, brought forth today an authoritative, though Informal statement from the State Department of the American Government's attitude toward the situation.
