Germany denies sinking of the Canadian hospital ship Llandovery Castle in a semi official statement issued in Berlin today.

Apparently no one observed a submarine. Thd cause may be attri buted to a British mine." This statement from Berlin is re markable In view of the fact that several survivors were taken aboard the submarine temporarily and that a conversation took place between the U-boat captain and the Master of the hospital ship.

Count Maximilian Montgelas says that the only war aim worth the immense sacrifice involved is the prevention for all time of a repetition of the four years of terror which the world is exper- iencing. "Of one thing I am certain, he continues, "and that is that many of those who went out in August, 1914, with Imperialistic desires have been taught to realize that the power and welfare of hte nation are not increased when millions of its subjects are torn into bloody fragments or crippled by shells; when billions of its national fortune are destroyed or wasted on the work of destruction; when the birth rate falls and when the death rate and crime steadily increases.
