TRIDAY, MAY 5. 1916
Count Reventlaw Declares Pres;-
i '
dent’s. Utterance Was Il Timed
'
*According to Courtesy.

Staff Correspondent of International
News Service.
BERLIN, May 3 (via Copenhagen,
May s).—Under the caption, “Diplo
matic Usages and Humanity,” Count
Reventlow in The Deutsche Tages
Zeltung severely arraigns President
Wilson for the sentiment expressed
in the speech he delivered at the
opening of the Chevy Chase training
camp for women, especially in view
of the fact that it was delivered at
a time when Ambassador Gerard was
breaking bread with the Emperor at
geperal headquarters. Count Revent.
oW says: -
In times of political and diplo
matic tension in periods like these
now obtaining in the relations be
tween Germany and the United
States Government and their re
sponsible heads, according to ex
perience and all traditions, they
invariably endeavor to observe
the strength and the dictates of
good diplomatic usages. }
The United States is assuming
the rule of a spontaneous, untu- |
tored, coquettish youth; has de- ‘
cided to play the role apart. To |
recall an instance of this sort we
remind our readers of the role
played by American Minister |
Bowen in the Venezuelan affair
of 1903.
This procedure was labeled
“shirt-sleeve diplomacy,” and that l
expression appears to me to have
the approval of his country. This
is not the time to discuss the mo
tives which tolerate such pro
cedure of the ultimate effect such
diplomatic conduct might have
produced in the last-decade, in so
far as it influenced the diplomatic
intercourse between the United
States and Germany.
Our reference to the incident
merely aims to emphasize that
we have become accustomed to
much along this line, but beg
leave to state that an address like
that delivered by President Wil
son at a time when the American
Ambassador was visiting general
headquarters and breaking bread
with the Emperor is wholly with
out parallel
According to a Washington
dispatch of May 1, President Wil
son on the occasion of opening a
training camp for army nurses
stated “May God forbid that the
United Staes shall ever be drawn |
into war. Should that, however, |
become unavoidable, then we
shall rouse ourselves from lethar- |
gv and demonstrate to every man |
who doubts the spirit of the New 1
World that we continue to be |
the champlons of humanity.” |
It is plainly obvious that this ;
war fanfare uttered at this time |
is a most unusual piece of con
duct on his part at present, espe- |
cially in view of the fact that |
there is no real or even external ‘
occasion for such an utterance,
the only sentiment expressed be
ing aimed wholly at Germany
Were one to employ harsh
terms, une would be compelled to |
say that an insult to Germany is
implied when the President states ‘
that any war lin which America |
would engage under the present
circumstances would be raising
America’s voice on behalf of hu
manity,
The only conclusion permitted
Is that Germany is an enemy of
mankind unless she meets the
United States’ demands. This is ‘
A familiar American phrase, and, |
like all phrases, it leaves us quite ‘
frigid. |
The significance and impor
tance of it all is that President |
Wilson should have seen fit. or
even possible to express himself |
in this manner at this time. ‘

“Kaysef gloves are made of pure silk, not weighted, and so they
