GERMANY MAY
WAR ON HOLLAND
London, April 8. Rumors are
current In London this after
noon that a declaration of war
has been made between Ger
many and Holland. No confirma
tion of this report, however, is
possible to obtain and In official
circles the rumor is discredit
ed. Messages from The Hague
late this afternoon made no ref
erence to any declaration of hos
tilities and the minister of the
Netherlands in London, while
admitting he had heard the ru
mors, had received no informa
tion on the matter.
That relations between Ger
many and Holland are strained
has been apparent for several
days with this strain growing
more tense with every hour.
