Notes: "This secret memorandum ... now published in full for the first time, was addressed at the close of 1917 by the Association of German Iron and Steel Manufacturers and the Association of German Ironmasters to the Imperial chancellor, Count von Hertling, and to Field-Marshall von Hindenburg. It is a plea for the annexation to Germany of that part of Lorraine which was left to France in 1871, and some districts of which--more particularly the Longwy-Briey district--are very rich in high-grade iron ore.
