Zimmerman, Not
Sorry He Inspired
Mexican Plot

London, March 1.-THE German gov
ernment's plan for involving Japan and
Mexico into war with the United
States. in the event of war between
Germany and America, was defended in
an address before the reichstag by the
foreign secretary, DR.. Alfred thinner
man. Replying to objections raised by
a socialist member to the Mexican pro-
posals. DR.. Zimmerman said:
Eve are looking out for all of us in
the event Of there being war with
America. 1t was natural precaution.
I am not sorry that thru its publication
in America it also became known in
Japan.
For the dispatch of these instruc-
tons a sure way was chosen. How the
Americans came into possession of the
text, which went to America In secret
code, we do not know. That these in
structions have fallen into American
hands does not alter the fact that the
step was necessary.
Last of all in America they are
least to be excited over the incident. It
was justifable defensive action in the
event Of war;"

Cites British Blockade.

Cites British Blockade.
Then Great Britain proclaimed
blockade of the coast of the North sea,
| which forms an important commerce
route for Austria Hungary, to prevent
all sea traffic by neutrals to central
powers coasts. That this blockade was
a. contradiction of the customary prin-
cip1es Of blockade was explicitly de-
clared by the president of the United
States of America in words which will
continue to live.
by the illegal prevention of exports
from the central powers Great Britain
aimed to paralyze the industries OF
central Europe and. by forcing work
ing men to idle. to incite them to
rebellion.
when Austria Hungary's southern
neighbor Joined the entente powers.
his first act was to order a blockade OF
southern coasts. Austria-Hungary did
not neglect to inform neutral powers
at once that the blockade was illegal.
Compelled to Violate.
For more than two years the CEN
trail powers hesitated. AS the only one
Of the belligerents to have done
everything to secure the existing
treaties which guaranteed to neutrals
the freedom of the seas, they felt that
the law Of the hour commanded them
to violate this freedom. But they took
this step to fulfill the duty to their
peoples. The proclamations which
they issued last January apparently
are directed only against the rights OF
neutrals. In reality they serve toward
the restoration of these rights. which
their enemies have necessarily violated
and which. if they were victors, they
would destroy forever.
~Thus the suhMerines cruising around
the English cosst announce to people
lwho us ths #seaA- .-and what people
does not want coasts THAT the day
| is not far. on when the nags OF all
Estates can freely ny over the seas.
1--WE cherish the hope that this an
nouncement will find an echo every
where that neutral peoples live and
especially that it will be understood by
the great people Of the United States" >,
Adheres to Assurances.
An Austrian memorandum referring
to the note on the Ancona case says
that It strictly adheres to assurances
already given
At the same time Austria calls atten-
ton TO the fact that at the time of the
Ancona incident It stated It reserv-
ed the right to bring up later for dis
cussion difficult international affairs
The memorandum adds:
IF the government now reserves this
right It is guided by a desire to show
the American government that now. as
heretofore, 1t strictly adheres 20 the
assurance already given and in en-
deavoring to clear up that case it is to
clear up the Misunderstanding between
the United States government and the
imperial government Of Austria"
lin the previous note the Austrian
government stated "that the govern
ment can concur In the principle that
vessel shall not be sunk without
warning and giving the passengers on
board time to escape."l
