 ORIGINATOR OF YANK-JAP WAR
His Plan Was to Incite Allies Against One Another by Intrigues With Mexico, Is Ascertained

This is disclosed by Professor Bonn, rector of the Commercial academy at Munich, Bavaria, according to the Munich Nachrichten.
 Won Chemnitz," says the Munich newspaper, imagined himself an au- thority on Latin-American affairs and suggested the scheme to Dr. Albert Zimmerman, then German secretary for foreign affairs. Zimmerman dis cussed it with other foreign office off cials, but they thought it unfeasible.
 Zimmerman kept the matter in mind. Presently, Von Chemnitz came and told him that the next few days an especially reliable messenger would leave for Mexico, to whom the mes sage could safely be entrusted, and that it was d H,Stter of now or never
 zimmerman allowed himself tG be over-persuaded and so the fatal step was taken"
 Dr. Albert Zimmerman on January 19, 1917, directed the German min ister, VOn Eckhardt, at Mexico City, to propose an alliance between Ger many, Mexico and Japan, to take ef feet as soon as it was certain there would be war between the United States and Germany. The German minister was directed to urge Presi- dent Carranza of Mexico to ask Japan's adherence to this scheme. Zimmerman proposed that Mexico should "reconquer the lost territory of New Mexico. Texas and Arizona"
 The German plot was made public by the United States government in February. 1917. Its disclosure was one of the startling incidents which preceded Americas entrance into the war.
 Prof. MOritZ J. Bonn, director of the Commercial high school at Mu- mich, was featuring in the United States on German history and defined German war aims in addresses deliv- cred here before the United States became a belligerelt.
