TRULY NEUTRAL POLICY INTIMATION TO HOLLAND. MUST REFUSE TO EXPORT TO BRITAIN. By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright. (Received This Day, 9.55 a.m.) LONDON. December 9. According to Berlin reports a semi-official reply to the Dutch statement says Germany will consider Holland truly neutral only if she refuses to export to Britain. A message from Berlin yesterday read:—Coinciding with the first open admission by the newspapers of the utter failure of the campaign to woo France from Britain, the Ministry of Propaganda, in a statement to the foreign Press, gravely warns neutral countries, and specially Holland, over their attitude to the British blockade of German exports. Neutrals are advised to take active steps against Britain’s now measures. The Ministry expresses amazement that Holland is not arming or convoying ships, and adds “it is surprising that this strange renunciation of the freedom of the seas is based on Holland's neutrality. This neutrality on the one hand shows super-sensitiveness and on the other accepts violations of international law. Therefore it is scarcely convincing.”
