Is This
Americas
Neutrality?
WHAT A SHAME.

We quote here a letter taken from
the New York Times. How about the
Presidents Neutrality Proclamation?
CITIZENS. BUT NOT AMERICANS
Conduct OF German Partisans in This
Country is Criticised.
To the Editor of the New York Times:
| wish to express warmest apprecia-
ticn of your great articles and editori-
ais on the European cataclysm. No
daily has interpreted the real issue
and its vast significance more clearly
than the Times. Behind President
Wilson's appeal respecting neutrality
not a few of our dailies are conducting
a contemplate and cowardly straddle,
MORALLY afraid of offending the PAN
Germanists.
And, by the way, this great war is
disclosing the sad fact that America
has many thousands of citizens that
are not even hyphenated Americans.
They are essentially Germans. 1t
should be evident even to the dullest
American that should the Pan-German-
lists win in this war the United States
may begin at once to double its navy
and q%uadruple its army. For what the
war party that has been running Ger

sERNsToRFF

6ERNsToRFs
A~n'bassaaer count Q ssrnstorf.
Count Won Bernstorff, the Germen
Ambassador, touched again today lp-
on the subject OF the Moneoe doctrine,
saying that his statement on that SUBJ
jeet had not been accurately set forth
and for that reason mischievous infer
enees had been drawn.
If the government of tho United
States he said, wants assurances
from Germany that. in event OF VIC
tory, she win not seek expansion ~
colonization in North America, includ-
ing Canada, and also South America.
Germany will give the assurances at
once. Germany has not the slightest
intention of violating any part or sec
ton Of the Monroe doctrine. Please
make this as emphatic as you can and
state that tried to make it emphatic
as earnestly and sincerely as / could.
Ready to Give Assurance.
I'VE have already laid before the
government of the United States an
official note stating that Germany
would not seek expansion in South
America. North America was no in
cluded because it never entered our
minds that anyone could conceive that
we had such intentions. But now that
the question has come to the fore we
shall gladly give the assurance IN any
form desired.
Z make this statement at this time
in order that the American people may
thoroughly understand The attitude or
the German government"

Washington Journal., 1914-11-28

many for many years thinks Of the
Monroe Doctrine, what was its attitude
in our cuban.Spauish war, and in our
trouble with Mexico. we know only too
well. In both cases the contention OF
the n-Germanists press was the
same, that we had sent emissaries into
Cuba and. recently into Mexico express
" TO make trouble that we might
have some pretext to annex both
countries. Our protection has been
not so much our own navy as that of
Great Britain, which Germany is now
comprising heaven and earth to
destroy.
TO these facts might be added many
others, as, for example, the strenuous
kicking of the Pan-G ermanists
against our celebration OF the one
hundredth anniversary of peace with
England, the unpatriotic motive here
being the wish to keep England and
the United States as much estranged
as possible.
