Germany's Unintended Wars.

To the Editor Of The Star:
The German governments statement
of no intended offense to America-ai
least no more offense than to Other
"neutrals'-should be classed with the
old song IT Just Can't Make My Eyes
Behave" as sung by Anna Held. Ger
many's rulers are flirting with Fate
Fate in the person Of one vigorous
youngster named Sam. Is his suscep-
tibility to her charms 90. then, any
less justidable on account of her al
legged Intentions. be they ever SO sin
cere?
But. sarcasm aside. can one read our
Presidents indictment Of Germany
conduct toward us and. realizing and
admitting the facts there set forth,
brand her contention of innocent intent
as anything short of hypocritical-any-
thing more or less than another scrap
of paper? Germany will not fight
American But Herr Zimmerman would
set Mexico and Japan at our threats.
not on an open plea of justice and
right such as our President used
against Germany in calling upon other
neutrals to join us in a diplomatic
break. but on an underhanded appeal
to the desire of those nations for self
ish aggrandizement-an appeal made
under a veil of secrecy which was the
plainest admission possible of the con-
seriousness of wrong.
Germany, however, is honest in one
thing-she makes but little pretense of
fighting for principles or for human
rights. Her plea is one of self-defense
against encircling enemies. She is.
therefore. justified in 1ghting-as is q
rattlesnake in striking for its life or
an outlaw when cornered by the sher-
ifs posse.
The real question involved is there
fore not that of a justification of fight
ing. In the abstract, fighting cannot be
justified: as "a fact. it is it's own justi-
fication. The issue Is rather a more hu-
man one: Is Germany to be blamed, or
is she not to be blamed, for having
enemies? Or. more specifically. are we
justified in numbering ourselves among
her enemies? What, in short. made us
enemies?
Some one has recently remarked that
when he arrived in hell he would ex-
pect to find the pavement there marked
made in Germany" AS is now becom-
ing evident. this is simply another YER
sion for the old saying that Hell is
meant no harm to Belgium-her inten-
tions were good, yet on her own chan
cellor's admissions she did Belgium a
great wrong which was justified (?)
by fear of France and the consequent
necessity for unrestricted military ac-
ton And now Germany. has no quar-
rel with us-she is only sinking our
ships and leading our citizens and their
wives and children on into the ever
lasting beyond Ga mere technical Of
tense. be ii understood-we should
keep off the high seas just as Belgium
should have made herself scarce-and
didn'tD. because she fears England and
consequently must unrestrictediy tram
pie upon every one else's rights-ex-
cept where this Is unnecessary.
To be sure. her offense against this
nation is but a mere technicality when
compared with the Belgian atrocities
It would be much simpler and safer for
both Germany and ourselves IL We
would not defend ths1e admitted rights,

and we ought not to defend them.
either. say our ''pacifsts," because Eng
land. too. has transgressed the laws OF
war: not. ii is true. with the destruc-
tfon OF our lives and property. but
with an Interference with our precious
right of Intercourse with Germany,
who wished us to war on England In
order to save her lives and property.
We must. then, first justify England's
procedure-and we do. For as homi-
eide Is not a crime when a necessary
measure for depressing homicide or
more heinous offenses. SO has England
been justified in stern measures UNDER
taken subsequent to the treachery
which justified them, certainly as
against Germany's ex post facto justi-
hcation of her invasion of Belgium.
How long ago, indeed, would an at
tack upon Turkey have been justified IL
England and Russia had taken the
presence of German army officers there
as casus belli? And what would we
ocatfon-not to mention the thinner
mann note?
Finally. We must justify ourselves
and we can. We need not pose as para
CONS of virtue in order to justify a
stand against this monster of modern
ism. Our institutions are not perfect,
nor our conduct. We still cherish law
lessness and racial hatreds within our
own body polite. 1t will do us good.
no doubt. to have to fight the cause of
Justice-it will rub it in" We are,
then. fortunate that the German gov
eminent has finally admitted us to an
unmistakable, technical right to take
up Belgfum's cause as our own. for we
need now assume no inconsistent air of
virtue. but can fight these battles as
Just plain, ordinary selfish people de-
tending our rights. That our cause is,
however. by comparison with Bel
GUMS, only technical one, is not, we
may well believe. due to Germany's IN
tentfons. but only to the fact that she
nnds comparatively few of us within
her feasible zone of operations, and
that she cannot drown our men and
women and at the same time carry
them away into slavery,
