FORMER KAISER WILHELM DENIES GERMANY’S GUILT .CONTINUE.. FROM I’AGK ONE. the Russian general mobilization, became inevitable, everything else followed automatically. The decisiou for war had Irretrievably been taken by the entente. In Versailles the accusation was made that Germany had for decades systematically been preparing the word war and had seized the opportunity iu 1914 to loose her thunderbolts. "Our army shall endure peace for us, and If peace be broken, shall enable us to reestablish peace with honor. That, with God's help, we shall be able to accomplish through the strength it has acquired from the latest armaments bill passed unaniby you. To employ this power for offensive wars is far from my heart. Germany has need neither of new glory nor of conquests since she lias finally won for herself the right to exist aißa united and independent nation." My reign remained faithfully to these principles, for 26 years; and I was able to continue the. peace policy of my grandfather and of my father, thereby presenting Europe, from the year 1871, with no less than 43 years of peace. Never before has Europe enjoyed so long a period undisturbed by war-like events. The armament which we—lying in the heart of the continent, without the protection of natural frontiers —were obliged to provide ourselves, never surpassed the essential. The war strength in the summer ot I 1914 amounted to 2,147,0 m) men for Germany, 1,400,000 for Austria-Hun-gary— altogether, therefore, 3,547,000 I men. The German general staff no longer reckoned on the allied help of Italy. Against this, the war strength of our prospective adversaries ran to 5,379.000 men in all, viz.: Russia, 2,712,000, France 2,150.000, England, 132,000; Serbia, 285,000, Belgium, 100,000. So that there were 3,547.000 men on our side, and 5,379.000 men on the side of the allies. At sea. there were fleets of 3,264,000 tonnage for the allies, as against 1,268.000 tonnage for tile central powers. The peace strength of the fighting forces in France amounted to two per cent of the population, in Germany to 1.17 per cent and iu Austria-Hungary to .94 per cent. France enrolled 78 to

82 per cent of her conscripts, Germany (until 1913) only 50 to 55 per cent; France gave 24.20 marks yearly pe rhead ot population for military requirements, Germany only 16.38 marks. These figures should s anciently prove that there can he uo just accusation of militarism on the part of Germany, The German government, moreover, never allowed itself to be misled into taking advantage of opportunities,' offering the most favorable prospects, of making war against France or Russia —neither In 1898, when France had to accept at the hands of Eng and the humilitiation of Fashado, nor in 1899-1902, when England, during the Boer war, must have left France to shift for herself, nor in 1905, during the first Morocco crisis, when Russia was bleeding in the far east and in the throes of revolution. We did not take advantage of the Bosnian crisis in 1908-1909, when Russia had not yet recovered, and the j Balkan states had not yet grown strong, and France had not yet thought of dancing attendance on her | | Russian ally to meet the claims of j Serbia; nor of the second Morocco crisis of 1911, nor the Balkan wars of 1912 and. 1913, when the military I position was very much more favor-, able for the central powers than ini 11914. Germany consistently conduct-1 led a policy of peace according to j 1 plan. Berman policy, correspondingly, i harbored no ambitions attainable by ! war alone. That it was otherwise with tlie allies is today proved by the{ publication of secret pre-war resolutions. secret agreements, and private. Sore Throat?

correspondence of the statesmen involved In the World war; and, not least, by the manner in which the socalled "peace treaties’* were concluded. Above all, the publication of certain papers from the Russian archives has given documentary evidence of the aggressive and imperialistic character of the aims of the allies. Through them we also know the fact that, as early as 1913, negotiations can today establish the fact that this assertion is losing more and more of its supporters. The documents which have been published meanwhile have proved to the world—in so far as it is willing to recognize the truth—tiiat the statement that Germany was responsible for the World war does not bear examination. More and more, historians recoil from the ignominious premise which attached the blame to
