Of effort 10 enlighten you upon the only
path which would maintain the rival
nations within the limits of justice and
dignity and would reunite in peace The
interests Of France and Germany. ]
speak with frmntss Of soul IN revolt
against the spectacle Of the plot Of force
10 annlhilate law and honor, all the
beauties Of civilization, and all the con-
quests OF nan over the brute.
IT WAS open to you to become the
greatest figure of ali time If you had
directed your power to repairing the in
justice weighing on Europe and given
your high authority 10 the ideals Of right,
Justice, and peace to which mankind is
now eagerly turning But, instead, you
maintained the brutal customs of =
military monarchy until Germany, which
could have won world power based on
| civilization, has dragged you down In
its false ideas and blind folly"
KAISER DEFENDED MILrTARIsw.
Recalling TO the ex-Emperor their
IollstAfS1AtOfASf bI1G 4 AiIttE CdF5s
81 was deeply impressed with the talk
| had with you when we inaugurated the
| Observatory Of Iedenberg When
condemned the militarizing OF q people
as stunting III Ivi lLal eqel0pment pom
Gccri ei to me the advantages of such
n form of national education outside Of
| its purely military objects, because SO
| You said, il relieved men from the heayl-
ness Of their bearing
This was your conception Of the
| principal end Of a system the application
! of which is terrifying the world. Today
| in the path of your armies are strewn the
! marks OF this education which betray
the true end of your profound error.
although YOU said TO me one day
| that II was not your right TO take GER
! tain action which would have conserved
/ world peace vet you told me on the
yacht Meteor on June %, 1914, on learn
ing Of the assassination of Ar ...e.. c
! Ferdinand
:. Now | must do everything over
again
History viii recognize IN these two
manifestations Of your conscience the
truth OF your responsibility for a de-
llberate war. In an interview | had with
YOU on the same yacht on the morning
of the same day | noted certain points
disclosing your real purposes when
said 10 you that believed the majority
of the French supported the idea Of q
rapprochement with Germany. You
| answered me with unusual emphasis:
= Yes, but we must hurry or it will
be too late and other arrangements will
be necessary to establish the position OF
the nations Of Europe Here are the
] Anglo-Saxons understanding their true
] interests and trying to group themselves
In JOINT protection against the yellow
races Even this year President Wilson
and England have used diplomatic Ian
guage. They understand also that there
Is nothing to do with Germany, but TO
accept her as she is .
After thus quoting the Emperors Ian
! guage, Prince Albert adds:
You afterward talked at length to
convince me that you had no bad senti-
ment toward France or any one, and
YOU remarked to me that you might
have fallen upon Russia when she was
ruined by her war with Japan, and upor
! France when 100000 French soldier,
were in hospitals. When | answered you
| that Frances paci ic intentions were
shown by the tendency TO reduce her
military forces, you had nothing more tC
say.
