New Blood in the Wilhelmstrasse

Kuehlmann's method, according to the
Frenchman, "is to surround himself with
a frst-class body of informers, and to
give to the press of the country where
he is, and of neighboring countries, the
information that serves his own purpose,
presented with an air of innocence that
would disarm the most suspicious. He is,
in fact, model Of the ultra modern diplo-
mat"
De Chassaigne charges kuehlmann with
having been one of the instigators Of the
Agadir crisis, and says that he regarded
the policy of threats as the one that would
serve his country best; yet, although he
believed in threats, for nothing in the
world would he have wished that single
shot be fired" Kuehlmann's plan was
rather to "intimdate France and obtain,
by bluffing and without striking a blow,
economic advantages and certain conces-
sions of territory" The writer adds that
this was his policy till the outbreak OF
the present war; and even in August, 1914,
che said to friend of mine:
Il can speak 10 you to-day as one man to
another. | shall tell you frankly what
think. Whatever may be the result, war is
criminal blunder for Germany. If we had
had ten more years OF peace we would be mas
tiers of the world without having to shed
one drop of blood"
And the Frenchman is convinced that
Baron Won Kuehlmann thinks to-day as
he thought three years ago" He goes on
as follows:
"He will make peace as soon as events
permit him TO do He has an unbounded
confidence in the profound resources Of the
German race; his only desire is to recon-
mence the work to which he and his friends,
the great capitalists, the great leaders OF
industry, had devoted themselves twenty
wears ago. and which can be resumed along
two lines, economic conquest OF the world
based on the threat of Germany's military
power.
"Kuehlmann is a practical man; he will
concede 10 the Allies empty honors, and
even political advantages. | should not be
at all surprised if he gave up Alsace-Lor-
raine. perhaps even Poland, provided that
Germany, or more precisely the Central I'm
pires, obtain economic compensations. lie
will be the convinced and even loyal up
holder of peace without bitterness He
will shake hands cordially with his enemies
of yesterday on condition that his one
nightmare is destroyed, namely, the eco
nomic boycott Of Germany after the war"
Finally, the French journalist asks:
what sort Of statesmen have the Allies
to oppose during and after peace negotia-
tions 70 Baron Won Kuehlmann, this young
active, energetic man, who knows every
question from top to bottom, who is thor
oughly trained in business, and who knows
beforehand exactly what must be retained
in every sphere and what may be sacriiiced?'
