Boy-I inJ Otrt vn Papon in the UnitI States or even the slightest knowledge of th.r, at the time they were committed, was mads today l-y Count voa UernstorfT. former German ambtssador to Washington. (Boy-ed and Von Vnptn carried on an active capaijrn in tho United States, reii!tlxr n j

ju tina n.imroua acts j

of destruction in industrial centers.) j Von BernstorfC vent on to say that i the British KOverninent lias in lt. pos- j

session evidence to establish his claims. Tho allusion to his "Washington so- . Journ came fron Von B. rnstorlT in the course of an interview on the subject of Germans of the old regime holding office under tho present Socialist rule. Von Bernstorft reiterated his previous declaration of democratic sympathies, adding: that his leanings towards democracy had teen the occasion of several clashes between himself and tho former German government. "Thro'Jsrhout the war I wis in continuous conflict with the military and naval rulers of my country," said tho former ambassador. "How hard I had to fight them, especially In the cases of the Lusitanla, the Arabic and tho Sussex is sufficiently "clear from my dispatches which have been deciphered In America and are therefore known to the U. S. government. "I was one of the strongest opponents of unrestricted submarine warfare. I always worked for peace, and like your

president, tried my best to end tho

world conflict In 1315. Not having sue

ceeded then, owing to the domination of our military and neval leaders. I almost felt as though I had scored a belated victory when those fatal influences were released through revolution. That Is why I stayed." Tha ex-ambassador was then reminded of his connection with the activities of Boy-ed and Von Fa pen to further Germany's militaristic designs iu America. He replied: "I must emphasize that whatever Capt. Boy-ei and Capt. von Papen may have done, they acted quite independently of the German embassy. These officers had their own offices in Near Tork and received their instrucions direct frcm the general stalT ani admiralty in Berlin. Moreover may I remind you that when they left Oe United States I was officially assured by the American state department that I was not involved In their affairs. Still less did I have to do with the work of other

lrman ajrens of the army and navy in the United States. I heard of them only when their enterprises failed."
