Previous to the charculIor'S collapsc
Won Buclow said in the Rcichytag that
ne wished to make 4 limited expression
OF TN" governments Moroccan policy He
weighed his words because the conference
1 had not formally completed its work ana
because the question had not hccn dis
\ CuSScd by other FariamcntS BESIDES. IL
! dt" not wish to risk disturbing the agree
m"nt arrived ut after 50 long a struggle
Conf 'nuinS, the chancellor said:
There have been weeks when tn"
minds of the people were disturbed by
thournts of war. Why WAS this the case?
| Arc cur interests in Morocco vital enough
f"r us to believe that German interest,
were 50 mcn@ccd as to oblgc us to con
slider the possibility Of war? No. Th"
|
| ity uf war We have no dircc: roliticnl
! interests in Morocco. No political asriI?'
tonS. M historical ri2hts lik" France
and Spain. But We have commercial in
forests that have il future" W. We're i
| partner in the international convention
which held that all the powers Were en-
titled to the most favored nation rights.
1t was Il question: Of dignity ana prostig,'
Of tn" German empire ana We could not
J give way.
| 1t was not our intention to gain 4
footing in Morocco. This would hay"
| weakened instead of strengthened our po-
sition. We did not want to oppose the oli
historical and political rights Of Franc
and Spain 50 long as the interests of icr-
| man trade were respected. We did not
want to irritate England because she had
| drawn closer to France. We wanted to
give significance to the fact that Germany
| was not negligible quantity and that
the text and basis of an international
| treaty could not bo changed without the
consent Of IN" siGnatory powers and that
| th. door; tor free foreign competition
must bc kept open in important terrific
rics near two of the worlds trad" routes.
IAN international conference WAS, W.
thought. the best means to attniG reac"-
tally the aims. 50 great WAS our conf
drnca in our firm basis of right that W.
entered into the conference knowing that
three great powers We're tied I" France
by special agreements and that q fourth
was her ally. We had to press our de-
sires against the majority Of tn" great
powers ana | desire to acknowledge tn"
frmncss and tcnacity with which tho Ger
| man delegates held to our Just demands.
| France has beer as conciliatory rs Ger
mauy in striving to find 2. solution for
the police question and in future We can
now 60 forward quietly, rs the result ct
the conference is as satisfactory to Ger
many as to France and all civilized
lands"
