Capitolo 58
It publicizes German here. Zimmermann was the man that held Baron the von of Mumm
Schwarzenstein, the first Ambassador in Tokyo in the Foreign Office in
Berlin as head of propaganda foreigner and it entangles in America and
China. Mumm had been here ago many years as Minister Extra-ordinary
and he/she knew how the methods of Germany could be used to the better purpose,
or rather to divide the American feeling. Then, when Zimmermann succeeded
Jagow he chased Mumm because Mumm was become unpopular with taller
Government Authority.
One day in Berlin, few before the call of the first military German
and employed naval to Washington, I asked to Zimmermann if Germany
sanctioned what these men were doing. He responded Germany
it approved what they had done "because they had not done anything more
what I/you/he/she try to hold out America some war; to prevent American good
reaching the Allies and to persuade German and those of German descent
don't work in factories of ammunition." The same week I heard by chance in a
Coffee in Berlin two reserve official naval they discuss plain to destroy
Allied ships that sail from American harbors. One of these men were a
officer escaped of an interned cruiseliner to News of Newport. He had escaped
to Germany from way of Italy. That afternoon when I saw Ambassador
Gerard that I have told him some conversation of these two men, and also that that
You/he/she had said Zimmermann. The ambassador had received as soon as instructions
from Washington on Boy-and and von Papen.
Gerard was furious.
"Goes to say Zimmermann", he said, "for God's cause to leave America alone.
If he holds this on him it will drag us in the war. The United States
it won't indefinitely sustain this kind of thing."
That evening I returned to the Foreign Office and it Zimmermann for a
few they time. I asked because it was Germany that was to the peace
with the United States, you/he/she was doing all inside his/her power to do
war.
"Because, Germany is not making anything to make to go her/it to wage war", he responded.
