PAUL REINSCH SCORES
SECRET DIPLOMACY
Some of Its Worst Features
Seen in Europe Lately.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2S.-Whether Sc
cret diplomacy brought on the great war
is open to debate but that It Is ito blame
for the war being not in fact yet ended
few will doubt" Paul s. Reinsch. former
Minister to China. said tonight in his
presidential address before the Ameri-
can Political Science Association.
THE statesmen who made the delib-
erations of the peace conference secret"
Mr.. Reinsch said. could only be justi-
fed on the supposition that freedom
from outside interference would enable
them promptly to agree on a solution
which in it's completeness would be ac-
cepted as equitable and wise by the pub
lie opinion of the nations. That expec-
tation was not fulfilled"
Mr.. Reinsch declared that secret d.
plomacy was closely related with the
absolutist theory of State. whereas "the
democratic principle demands that diplo-
matte policy and all treaties at least
should be public, although the details OF
negotiations may remain confidential"
"In the only remaining absolutist State
Japan" he said, secret diplomacy Is
true to type. In the most democratic
States-the United States and Great
Britain-publicity of diplomatic policy
and full reports on diplomatic action
after negotiations are concluded are de-
manded. but not always obtained.
'In Europe during and since the war"
the former Minister added. some of the
worst features of secret diplomacy have
been displayed"
