GERMANY PLANNED
WAR IN JUNE, 1914

Industrial Concerns Ordered to Open Secret Instructions
For Mobilization June 9, 1914 Within Four Months
Affor War Starte Hnne onrl "rUcTwiz-tlrm
Agents" to Carry Out Plots in U. S.
, Washington, Sept. 20. Another convincing link in the
proof that Germany was preparing to start a war of world
conquest at least six weeks before the excuse for it was
offered by the assassination of the Austrian heir apparent
at Sarajevo, concludes the amazing series of disclosures
which the American government has given to the' public
through secret documents brought out of Russia.
Two at-thentical documents arc in-
eluded

evidence removing any doubt that ' February 9.
rluded in the final chapter of the ! bassador Francis cabled I
story which began a week ago with Isage in code to the State de
the nies-
partment
may have existed that the Russian
ItnlCh.triTr r, n . . . f t .
Lenine and Trotzky, is a tool of the
imperial German government. One
of these is an original circular from
the) German staff dated June 9r 1914,
directing that all industrial concerns
be notiffed to open their secret in
structions for industrial mobiliza
tion. Another dated Nov. 20, 1914,
is fnom a German naval general staff
and reveals that within four months
after hostilities began in Europe
"destruction agents" were ordered
to Canada and the United States to
hire anarchists and escaped crimi
nals for the bomb plots and work of
terror which finally played a part
in drawing the United States into
the war.
Early Financial Plans.
In addition to this authenticated
evideffee Edgar fisson, who ob
tained the papers for the committee
on public information, offers a re
markable group of circulars put out
in Russian text at Petrograd last
winter purporting to be copies of
documents taken from the archives
of the counter-espionage bureau of
the Kerensky government, supple
mented by some from the files of the
same bureau before tie fall of the
czar.. Some of this matter had been
published previously in France and
in this country.
The circulars tell of German ar-
outbreak of war for the establish
ment of the financial agencies in
bordering neutral countries which
later furnished the money for the
operations of the bolsheviki; of or
ders to German banks to establish
close and secret relations with Amer
ican and Finnish banks;of the launch
ing or revolutionary propaganda
tgainst the czar's government in Rus
sia as early as November, 1914, and
of instructions to German diplomats
in all neutral countries to co-operate
with a general arrangement set up in
those countries for stirring up so
cial unrest, strikes and sentiment
against war within the enemy
states. -
Russian Paper Bought .
The name "of Scheidemann, - the
German socialist leader, hdf
mentioned tis involved in the deal
ings of the German government
with bolsheviki appears attached to
one of the unathenticated docu
ments. It is a note announcing that
150,000 kroners have been placed to
the credit of a Russian newspaper
itnd asking that Vorwaerts (the
name of Scheidemanns organ at
Berlin) be advised of what appeared
in the subsidized journal.
An appendix to the concluding in
stallment is what purports to be a
transcript of a unique' telegraphic
conversation between Tchitcherin,
new bolsheviki -foreign minister at
Petrograd, and Trotsky, at Brest
Litovsk last February a few days
before Trotsky made his notorious
"no peace no war" play. Tchit
cherin is quoted as promising a
" separate peace by , which Russia
would not cause a rupture with the
allies anjl saying that "England and
America are playing up to us separ-
Appendix I.
This appendix is of circular of
which (except in two noted cases) I
have neither originals nor authenti
cated copies. ,A number of sets of
them were put out in Russia text in
Petroarrad and other parts of Russia
-in the winter (1918) by the oppon
ents of the Bolsheviki. The circu
lars were declared to be copies of
documents taken from the counter
espionage bureau of the Kerensky
government,, supplemented by some
earlier material from the same bu
reau when it was under.the imperial
government. The opportunity for
securing them could easily have been
afforded to the agents and employ
ees of the bureau, for most of them
walked out when the Bolsheviki
""grasped the government and could
bave taken freely of the -contents
of their departments.
Some of the documents were in
cluded in the publication made in
Paris, hitherto referred to.
- The simple test that I have ap
plied to the circulars is that of in
ternal analysis. T6" that they re
spond withtut contradiction. I have
not relied on them as proof, but they
rtit to other fabrics of proof, and in
Tne light of it are more valuable tor
themselves than they were when
jlhey stood alone.
Finally, f am now able to prove
that two of the documents among
- these circulars the circular of in
dustrial mobilization of June 9. 1914,
and the agents,vdestruction circular
of November 28, 1914 are authentic
I have them in the original Ger
main printed version of their offi
cial distribution, and I have the
doubly attested Russian and Ger
man record that they, in preceding
- time, reposed in the files of the
secret service of the Russian gov
irnment, from which they were tak
:n by German order and turned over
o German representatives of the
.German government Jn Petrograd
with the intent of eliminating them
as international evidence against
Germany.; (See Document 3 of my
Report.) ,
This group' of circulars came into
. my hands the first week in Febru-
ary, 1918, and a few days later two
- duplicate sets reached me. I pre
pared a digest ot tne let and Am-
It was nearly four weeks later be
fore 1 secured the originals and all
the photographs listed in my Report.
Two of these originals were of cir
culars I had seen in copy form four
weeks earlier. That summarizes the
case of the circulars of the appendix
considered as evidence.

Circular 18, February , 1914.
From the ministry to all groups of
German banks and by agreement
with the Austro-Hungarian govern
ment, the "Cesterreichische-Kred-itanstalt."
The management of all German
banks wheh are transactng business
abroad and, by agreement ,with the
Austro-Hungarian government, the
"Cesterreichische Kreditahstalt"
bank are hereby advised that the
imperial government has deemed it
to be of extreme necessity to ask the
management of all instiutions of
credit to establsh with all possible
dispatch agencies in Luleo, Hapa
randa, and Varde, on the frontier of
Finland, and in Bergen and Amster
dam. The establishment of such
agencies for a more effective obser
vation of the financial interests of
shareholders of Russian, French,
and English concerns may become
a necessity under certain circum
stances, which would alter the situ
ation of the industrial and financial
market.
Moreover, the management of
banking institutions are urged em
phatically to make provsions for
very close and absolutely secret re
lations being established with Finish
and American banks. In this direc
tion the ministry begs to recommend
the Swedish "Nia-Banken" in Stock
holm, the banking office of Fursten
bcrg, the conimercal company "Wal
demar Hansen," in Copenhagen, as
a concern which is maintaining
(virulent) relations with Russia.

Olaf Ashberg, ono of the headseC. the

in the country adjacent to Russia,
France, Italy and Norway. In all
branches of German banks in Swe

requirements. The General Staff is
authorizing you to avail yourself in
unlimited amounts of these credits
for the destruction of the enemy's
factories, plants, and the most im

Simultaneously with the instigation

provisions for the damaging of mo
tors, of mechanisms, with the de
struction of vessels, setting incen
diary fires to stocks of raw materials

large towns of their electric energy,
stocks of fuel and provisions. Spe

struction. --(Signed) Dr. Fischer,
