ZIMMERMAN SAYS PLOT.WAS JUSTIFIED. Military Necessity, His Plea in. il
 Speech to Reichstag

London, March 6.-The German Governments plan for involving Mexi- co and Japan in war with the United States, in the event of hostilities be- tween Germany and America, was de- tended in an address before the Reichstag by Foreign Secretary Zim- mermapn, as quoted in a Reuter- despatch from Amsterdam. Replying to objections raised by socialist member to the Mexican proposal Dr. Zimmerman said: A K @
 "'We were looking out for all of us. in the event of there being the possi- bility of war with America. It was a natural Justified precaution. I am not sorry that, through it's publication in America, it also became known iH Japan.
 .F'or the dispatch of these instrucs tions a sure way was chosen which a4 present is at Germany's disposal How the Americans came into possession ot the text which eft to America in spe- cial secret code we do not know. That these instructions should bave fallen into American hands is a misfortune, but that does not alter the fact that the step was necessary for our patriots ic interests.
 Least of all are they in America justified in being excited about our ac- ton. It would be erroneous to supp pose that the step made a particularly deep impression abroad. It issregard- ed as what it is-justif1able in the event of war"

MODEST 'DETECTIVE' AT CENSUS OFFICE  He Is a Sleuth Because He
 Admits It

Work has been proceeding smooth ly at the census bureau today and the workers have settled down for the final grind which will terminate Tn few days with the completion of the enrolment. This morning the bureau was enlivened by the suddel, appearance of man of Napoleonic stature and pose. Walking up to an agent he demanded in a gruff voice that he be given a census blank. Fold ing the paper, he turned abruptly on his rubber heel and stalked out, re- marking that he would return anon,
 Admits Being "Detektivc."
 Curiosity got the better of the agent and when the blank was re- turned he looked it over. What is your present occupation? A detek- tive,' was what he read. The modest and unassuming "detektive" admit ted, further down in his list, that he IS not qualified for any gruelling work for although he denied any serious physical disability, he just as stren- uously denied any ability to swim. drive an auto, drive team or any of the other accomplishments emu merated
 High School Pupils Help.
 Owing to the stormy weather of yesterday. with the exception of the assistants who make it a point to be on hand daily. there were but few volunteers in the morning and after noon. In the evening, however, there was large force on hand to perform the work in the office. As soon as it was apparent there were not sufficient number of helpers to handle the work properly in the of fee, Chairman A. r. Corbin rushed the bulk of the work to the Voca- tional High school. where under the able direction of Professor J. c. Moody a large number of the willing students carried out the task set be fore them in a most business like manner Too much credit cannot be given the High school students for the big part they. are playing in this census taking. Although yesterday vassers at work getting persons to fiji out blanks. and an unusually large number came to headquarters to vol- untarily make out theirs.
 An amusing incident of yesterday was man who came to the office in Clty Hall to fill out a blank. He said the reason he came in to make out the paper was owing to the fact that he had cold feet. ''But do not think" said he. "that mean I have cold feet in the sense of the common, everyday expression. Only my feet are really cold and I thought this a good place to get them warm, so I came in for that purpose and at the same time to fill out blank"
