Not Seeking

Porto Rico Not Prepared for
Self-GOvernment

San Juan, Porto Rico, April ID Cor
respondence Of The Associated PreSs}5.
That Porto Rico is not prepared for
either statehood or independence was
the opinion expressed by Senator'S
Barbosa and Giorgetti in the course
of a debate in the senate yesterday
Senator Barbosa said also that the ls--9
land is unprepared for immediate self
government.
The debate was opened by an invi--
tation of Senator Gorgetti to Senator
Barbosa to dissolve both political par
ties in the island.
Il invite DR.. Barbosa to dissolve
the Republican party" said Senator
Giorgetti, "and I will do all can to
dissolve the Unionist Party because we
are wasting time. It must be under
stood that both statehood and inde-.
pendence are long way off. Do you
think we are prepared for either state
hood or independence" he asked.
I'VE are not, replied DR.. Barbosa-
"a country which has the number of
illiterates Porto Rico has, whose
masses are without means. Of educa-
ton and whose economic condition is
deplorable, is not prepared to be eth
er a republic or State. We have
to prepare our country and provide
the means for its being politically, eco
nonlically and educationally in con-
dition to enjoy its sovereisnty.~sssYe-are are

has to say, continue your studies, you
are rot yet ready; when you get in
your fourth or fifth years your labor
will be rewarded Gentlemen, you
know perfectly well that we are not
economically prepared to be either
State or a republic
"In this 7 agree with DR.. Barbosa,"
said Senator Giorgetti, eve are not
prepared economically for statehood
or to be an independent republic"
Senator Giorgetti asked DR.. Barbosa
if he thought Porto Rico was prepar-
ed to govern itself. DR.. Barbosa re-
piled that at the present moment it
was rot. because self government
signfed government of and by the
people and for the people, while to-
day it would result in government by
a part Of the people only, because
without preparation the people would
be governed by the fortunate few.

Big War Caused
By Imagination
Won Jagow Gives Explanation
in Book

Paris, May 5 (French Wireless
Service) The imaginary invasion of
German territory by the French was
the pretext for the declaration of war
on France, says Gottleih Won Jagow,
former German for eign minister, in q
book which he has just published en-
titled The Universal War, It's Causes
and Beginning" The alleged French
incursions were reported to the Ger
man staff by subordinate officers, Won
Jagow says, and the staff COM
municated the information to the gov
ernment without attempting to ascer-
tain the facts
The former foreign minister asserts
that before the war he was convinced
of the necessity of an accord with
Great Britain and expresses regret
that Germany unfavorably received
offers of an alliance made in 1899.
When the Austro-Hungarian am
bassador in Berlin communicated TO
him the text of the ultinlatlm 10
Serbia, Won Jagow says he thought its
terms were too rigorous. He, declares
he expressed some astonishment that
Berlin ad not been informed earlier
of the s+eps taken at Vienna
Theodore Wolff, in The Tageblatt,
commenting Won Jagow's version Of
the interview he had with the Aus
trian ambassador, concerning the III
timatum to Serbia, says that, after
reading it, he is more at loss than
ever to understand why the proposal
made by Sir Edward Grey to call
conference of ambassadors to exa lire
the conditions to be enforced on ,ar-
bia was rejected so categorically ty
